About Bridal & Occasion Hairstyling
I get a real buzz from being part of your big day, right from the mad rush of 'chala chala lavkar' (come on, quickly!) to that final mirror check. For me, it’s about making sure your hairstyle feels like you, not just a copy-paste look.
Mixing Tradition with Now
I love giving the classic Maharashtrian bridal hairdo a modern spin. Whether it’s a paramparik khopa (traditional bun) with a messy twist or capturing that Marathmola shringar (Maharashtrian adornment) vibe, I’m all in. But I don’t stop there - I enjoy working with South Indian, Punjabi, and Christian brides too, making sure your hair matches your outfit and your roots.
For Every Occasion
- Engagement, Roka: Soft curls, glitter, or elegant updos
- Sangeet, Cocktail: Secure high ponytails, braids for all-night dancing
- Haldi, Mehendi: Floral braid hairstyle for wedding, soft waves that stay put
- Wedding Day: Traditional buns or glam reception looks
- Baby Shower: Gentle, simple styles
My Go-To Styles
- Buns & Updos: From floral khopa to messy buns, even for short hair
- Braids: Intricate, with fresh mogra (jasmine), pearls, or South Indian bridal braid with jewels
- Open Hair: Hollywood waves, bouncy curls, half-updos
Details Matter
I’m big on accessories - fresh gajra, roses, Baby’s Breath, or bling like pearls and rhinestones. I also offer saree draping, including Nauvari style, to finish your look.
I travel across Mumbai, Pune, and for destination weddings. If you want a style that’s comfy, lasts all day, and feels like you, I’m here for it.

My Story
Hi, I’m Mansi, Mumbai chi Marathi mulgi (Mumbai’s Marathi girl). Hair is my playground. Weddings, engagements, haldi - I just love the buzz. That look on a bride’s face after I finish her hair, uff, makes my day! I’m all about classic styles with a twist - think khopa with a dash of now. If you want comfort, beauty, and a bit of you in your hair, call me. I’ll travel too, no stress.
