About Event Hairstyling
Complete Looks, Not Just Drapes
I’m Viji, a Tamil ponnu in Mumbai, known for my saree draping skills at Drapes of Threads and Traditions. Now, I’m bringing my hairstyling to the mix - because what’s the point of a stunning saree if your hair isn’t on point? I want you to walk in, get ready, and leave without worrying about matching your hair to your outfit.
My Favourites: Braided Crowns & More
Braided crown hairstyle is my go-to for receptions or parties. It’s neat, sits like a headband, and the rest of your hair gets those soft barrel curls. Suits any traditional outfit - no fuss. But I don’t just stick to one look.
- South Indian bridal braid (Poola Jada) with temple jewellery for kalayana ponnu vibes
- Gajra bun styling for a classic finish
- Messy updo for parties if you want those soft, face-framing curls
- Simple, open hair with bouncy curls for glam without the drama
Occasions Covered
Weddings (South Indian, Maharashtrian, Kannadiga, Iyer, you name it), engagements, baby showers, festivals, and parties. I’ve done looks for pretty much every big moment.
Real Talk: Patience & Happy Vibes
Folks say I work romba porumaiya - means I’m patient, I listen, and I won’t rush your hair. I believe getting ready should feel easy, not stressful. You’ll leave looking confident, every strand sorted, and no chaos.

My Story
Hi makkale! I’m Viji, the face behind The Saree Drapist. Sarees are not just fabric to me – they’re stories, memories, and a bit of magic. Grew up Tamil in Mumbai, always helping folks feel special in their drapes. That smile when Geetha amma felt like a selai – that’s what keeps me going. I love making every pleat count, whether for brides or my own family. One saree at a time, I’m here to add a little tradition and joy.
