About Statement Braids & Accessories
The secret to wearing heavy hair charms or Gottapatti lace is anchoring them deep into the braid structure rather than just pinning them to the surface. This prevents the accessories from slipping or tugging on your scalp throughout the day. I use specialized U-pin methods and lightweight setting sprays to ensure your style stays secure and comfortable, even if you are dancing for hours at your Sangeet or Mehendi.
Accessories are the best way to make a look your own. Whether you want a traditional vibe with Gottapatti woven into a tight braid or a modern feel with gold hair charms and chains, the focus is always on making sure the style stays put. I have spent years refining how to integrate these elements without making the hair feel stiff or overly product-heavy.
For events like Sangeet or Roka, I prioritize styles that are dance-proof. If you are prepping for a photoshoot or a gala, we can incorporate more delicate pieces like pearls or metallic charms that catch the light perfectly. I am happy to work with any specific jewellery or accessories you already have, or I can bring my own collection if you need inspiration.
Since I travel across Mumbai and beyond for destination weddings, I am used to working in different climates and venue settings. If you are worried about humidity affecting your hair, I use high-grade anti-humidity sprays to keep everything in shape. Let’s chat about your outfit and find the right accessory balance to complete your look.
