About Editorial Bridal & Ethnic Glam
When it comes to bridal hair, I prioritize structural integrity above all else. My process involves creating hidden support systems within your updo, specifically designed to anchor heavy matha pattis and elaborate headpieces so they don't slip or strain your hair during long wedding hours.
I treat every bridal event with the same discipline I use backstage at fashion week. My approach isn't just about how the hair looks; it is about how it holds up under pressure—whether you are dealing with humidity, heavy embroidery, or hours of photo sessions.
My Technical Process
- Base Prep: I focus on volume and texture using professional crimping and blow-drying techniques before styling begins. This provides the foundation needed for complex shapes.
- Support Structures: For intricate styles like high-fashion buns or structural updos, I use hair fillers and padding. These are essential for creating volume without adding unnecessary weight to your head.
- Jewelry Setting: This is where my editorial background comes into play. I ensure every matha patti, jhumka, or floral accessory is pinned securely to survive the movement of the ceremony and reception.
Styles for Every Occasion
Whether you need a sleek, center-parted updo for a classic look or soft Hollywood waves for a reception, I customize each look to match your face shape and outfit. I am based in Delhi but travel across India for destination weddings and shoots, bringing my full kit of humidity-resistant sprays and heat tools with me. My goal is to ensure your hairstyle remains photo-ready from the start of the makeup session until the final dance.
