You may also add some colourful clips or roses to make it more interesting. The type of adornments entirely depends on your choice and what you are comfortable with.

Wondering what is it? It is the bridal attire. All eyes will be on the bride on her wedding day. She must look stunning and her wedding dress is crucial for the purpose. You can find beautiful wedding dresses online, or at a traditional store that you have known for years, or you could even go for designer wear if you want to splurge on the bride.

We will help you out with some tips to choose the perfect wedding dress for the Indian bride. So, here are the tips you could find useful while going to shop for a wedding dress for the bride to be.

  • Choose it Yourself

The custom in many Indian weddings is, the bride’s close relatives gift her wedding dress. You don’t have to disregard the tradition. But you can always tell them what you want, or better still, go shopping with them. This is what most people do anyway. Earlier people used to ask the bride what colour she wants her wedding dress to be. But now, they want to make sure she loves the dress. They don’t want to take chances.

As a bride, you would want to make sure you like what you will wear to your wedding. Also, you should not put that much pressure on the people buying the dress. They will be anxious about your choice. So, go choose your own bridal lehenga, or saree, whatever you like. If your family believes in omens like the bride shouldn’t go buy her own wedding dress, we always have WhatsApp. But make sure you are the one choosing your dress, whether you are physically present or not.

  • Type of Outfit

There are basically two types of traditional outfits for the Indian bride, the saree and the lehenga. But Indo Western bridal gowns, traditional Rajasthani or Kashmiri attire, these are options too. If you are going for a theme wedding where you are a Disney princess or a Rajasthani bride, you will need to dress accordingly. So, the lehenga and saree are not your only options.

  • Colour

The colour of the wedding dress is crucial. You need to make sure it suits your skin tone. You need to make sure you are not buying similar colours for any of the wedding-related events. Each outfit must be of a unique colour combination.

You can go for the traditional colours like maroon, golden, red, and pink. You can go for the trending pastels. You can go for white with golden detail. Or you can go for statement lehenga colour combinations like brown with purple, or blue with yellow. These are just examples. You go for your favourite colour combination.

  • Fabric

If it is a winter wedding, wear whatever fabric looks best. If it is a summer or monsoon wedding in India, you need to avoid velvet, thick silk, or anything too heavy.

Wing it with bright colours so that you can wear an outfit that is light on the weight.

  • The Occasion

You need to dress according to the event. The saree is traditionally in a shade of yellow. Try going for a bright one. If you don’t want it to be monochromatic, orange is a good colour to go with yellow. The mehendi and sangeet night outfit needs to be any colour that complements your brown or orange mehendi. But do not go for the signature wedding day colours. Spare them for the wedding day. Wear something with a lot of poof so that you can get amazing sangeet night photographs when you twirl. The wedding day outfit can be the traditional reds or the modern pastels. The reception evening outfit needs to look totally different from the wedding dress. So, maybe go for a lehenga in pastel shades for the reception and a saree in traditional hues for the wedding.

  • Design

A lot of embroidery, zari, or handmade motif prints makes a wedding dress look worthwhile. Your veil needs to be nicely adorned with sequins and little flowers if possible.

If you are wearing white or beige, the print can have bold colours on it. Rajasthani theme attire needs to have a lot of mirrors. You need to make sure the design is immaculately beautiful.

  • Where to Buy it From

Go to the local shop you trust and love so dearly because they always know exactly what you are looking for. Or go for designer wear, a Manish Malhotra or Sabyasachi bridal wear collection maybe. Celebrity designers are making their collections available to the masses and the cost too is reasonable enough for a wedding dress. Buy them, or get them tailor made from the best professionals in town. Customise the design if you want. Go through the design catalogues to get an idea. Buy the blouse from someplace you can trust with the cut and the fit and your exact instructions. Buying a readymade lehenga for the wedding is convenient. So go to the best stores first. In case the readymade blouse won’t fit you perfectly, go for the best tailor in town.

  • When to Buy

By now you must have noticed that there is a lot to be done. There are so many outfits to buy or choose if a family member or relative is gifting it to you. There are colour combinations to think about, design, fit, everything to be made perfect. So, you must start very early. Buying a wedding dress two months before the wedding is not an option. You must start at least six months in advance so that you can choose at leisure and buy all the dresses for every wedding-related event. You will have time to choose accessories like shoes, clutches, and some custom jewellery once you have bought the outfits. When you consult with your makeup artist and hairdresser, it will be good if you can show them the outfits for the occasion. So, if you want to look perfect for your wedding, start early.

  • Altering Options

Make sure it is a perfect fit. Also, leave room for alterations. You are buying the dresses many months prior to when you will actually need them. Just in case you gain a little weight, there should be room for alteration. This won’t be possible if you are buying a designer wear. You will need to fit the outfit instead of the other way around. So, if you think you are ready for that kind of commitment, go for it. Else, buy it from a store that offers flawless altering services and make sure the fabric has room for alterations on the inside. Getting your outfit tailor-made helps the purpose. Try maintaining a steady weight until your wedding. After the big event is over, lose weight, gain weight, do, what you want.

These tips will help you avoid making rookie mistakes that can ruin the wedding look for many brides. But you know better, at least now. So, go out there and choose your own wedding dress, reception dress, haldi, and sangeet outfits. Don’t skip the trial. Your bridal lehenga has to be perfect for you. Do not compromise. Buy only what you really like.

9 Ridiculous Indian Marriage Rituals that We must Discard Right Now

The Indian wedding is all about pomp and show. From looking for a wedding banquet to going on a bridal shopping spree, you have a lot on your mind. But, the glamour and auspiciousness of the wedding ceremonies is not all what it seems.  There are some shady superstitions in India that force degrading Indian marriage rituals on brides and grooms. We need to call them out, now. Here are 9 such practices and why we must abolish them.

  • Kanyadaan

Gifting the bride away in charity to the groom’s family is as low as it gets. It is bad enough that a person has to give up an entire life, to go take care of another family, because she was born female. But the fact that men and women today accept treating a woman as an item to be given away is shameful.

Some might argue that the ritual is not meant to treat the woman like property but as a precious treasure of the father, who wants to make sure her husband takes care of her. Well, in a marriage both the partners should take care of each other. And even the groom shouldn’t have to say things like “I take the responsibility of her food and clothing this day onward”. Many women take care of those themselves now.

Instead of giving a heavy dowry to the groom’s family, people should start educating their daughters and supporting their career so that they can contribute in their new family, on their own. The archaic gender role of the husband bearing all expenses is oppressive to men too, and insulting to women who already share the burden of costs.

Not to ignore, the kanyadaan is performed by male members of the bride’s family. Even in the absence of the father, the next closest male member needs to perform the ritual. Now, imagine this. Two men meet; they exchange riches and one of them hands a girl over to the other. They have a deal. Makes you wanted to call the cops? Now, deck the girl up in bridal wear, the recipient of the girl in groom attire, and move the setting to a wedding venue, it all looks so pure, how can anybody question the sanctity of this tradition! Right? But the questioning has started, in lieu of some recent weddings. And it will continue.

  • Bidaai

The woman obviously leaves her home because that isn’t even her home. She goes to her new home, or sasuraal, so technically, her father in law’s home, again, not hers. Now, before she leaves, she has to throw a handful of rice over her head symbolising repaying of the “debt” she had at her father’s house. So, yes girls, you are actually staying rent free in someone else’s home. That is not even actually your family, because, you are paraaya dhan. Somebody else’s property. How do independent women even tolerate and perform these Indian wedding traditions and rituals, I will never understand.

  • The Signs of Marriage

In the western culture, giving away the bride, male member walking her down the aisle, surname change, all of it exists. But they are ahead of Indian customs on one account. They have the wedding band for both, the husband and the wife. But thanks to Indian marriage rituals, you know whether a woman is married or not, just by a glance at her sindoor, bangles, mangalsutra, toe ring, thali, there are numerous symbols to tell Miss, from Mrs. But the Mr remains a Mr. It is high time we abolish this custom. These things should not be imposed on the girl and it totally depends on the girl how she wants to flaunt her marital status.

  • Absent Mother

In Bengali weddings, the mother of both, the bride and the groom, are not allowed to witness the wedding. Apparently, a mother’s eyes will spew the worst curse on her own child. If something goes wrong in the marriage, it is because the mother might have witnessed the wedding. No, it is not the abusive in laws of the bride, not the kitchen politics of the women and the living room politics of the men, it is the person’s own mother who wants to ruin things for the child. Again, how is, this still, acceptable?

  • Kashi Yatra

South Indian weddings have a queer sense of humour. No, not that ‘queer’ that we should be able to accept with an open mind. The groom pretends to be disinterested in the marriage, packs up his things, umbrella and all, and runs away, forsaking the grihastha phase. The bride’s father has to run after him, beg him, literally beg him to come back and marry his daughter. He has to perform some rituals that are supposed to feel insulting by the way, to change the groom’s mind. The bride is supposed to silently marry the person who is being coaxed into a life with her.

We cannot deny the whole act of a boy running away and a man chasing him is funny. But, coming to the implication, can you come up with any interpretation apart from “the groom is doing a half hearted favour to the helpless bride by marrying her”? Oh it’s just a fun ritual. Then why does the bride not get to run away with the groom begging her to marry him? Why is the idea of coaxing anybody, groom or bride, into marriage, funny to begin with?

  • Washing Feet

The bride’s mother should wash the groom’s feet when welcoming him to marry her son. If he cannot wash his own feet, is he ready for marriage? How can a respectable man allow someone to touch his feet? Also, in many customs, the bride is expected to touch the groom’s feet for blessings. Pati Parameshwar indeed.

If you are a man, do you think you are God to your puny wife? Why didn’t you get a woman who is your equal to marry you then? If you are a woman, who is not abused and forced into these practices, but do it anyway, what are you thinking? Are you thinking at all?

  • Haldi

The bride is supposed to wait for the groom in her Haldi ceremony dress so that he can send the leftover haldi for her. Turmeric is all antiseptic and all, so we get that the hygiene part is taken care of. But it is just gross anyway. The best way I can think of it is, it builds partnership in the sense, the bride has to patiently wait and the groom has to make sure there is enough for her, kept away neatly.

But in a country where still many families have the women who eat only after the men are full or in a country where a man is seen as such a kind gentleman to offer his wife to sit with him for dinner, this is not a notion for modern world. Before you dismiss that because it doesn’t happen in your family, or any family you know, do realise that you are blessed to be a part of a respectful family. But these injustices do exist. If that was not enough, some customs have the bride sit under the groom’s elbow and the water that drips from his elbow when he is given a bath after the haldi, is supposed to be her shower. Conserves water I guess.

  • Name Change

In some North Indian cultures, the bride is made to change her name, her first name, that is, to fit the groom’s stars. Her middle name used to be her father’s name and now it is replaced with her husband’s name. She obviously takes her husband’s surname. So, her maiden identity is obsolete. Do this outside marriage and you will have people suspecting you of some drug mafia links. Why should one have to give her identity up?

So, take a box, strip it off the old label, put a new label on it, put an address on it, and ship it. That is how marriage looks like to many women even today. As for the rest of the country, why should a woman even have to change her last name? Of course, the social system, the child belongs to the husband’s family. Of course, if it is a son. Else paraaya dhan cycle repeat.

Enough women and men are abolishing these dehumanising practices nowadays. It is time for you too, as a man or woman of today, take up responsibilities irrespective of gender norms. Work as equals.

  • Manglik Bride

Out of all superstitions in India, this one takes the cake. A manglik bride is believed to have bad luck in marriage. Her first husband is supposed to die an untimely death. So, they get her married to a tree or a dog because, who cares about nature and animals? Creepy as it sounds, a manglik man doesn’t have to marry weird things, because, who cares if the wife dies? That is, for people who even believe in these rituals to begin with.

So, if you are looking for wedding venues for an upcoming wedding, we hope you are ready to bring a positive change with this wedding

  • Mango Phirni

This isn’t too difficult to pull off. You don’t even need to be told how to do this. The basic thing is, you need mango pulp, and the other ingredients for phirni are already there. Mango isn’t typically a western fruit but adding it in our typical Indian phirni does change things. Who does not love phirni? And who does not love mangoes! Put your hands together.

  • Kiwi Barfi

We have kaju barfi, pista barfi, and Kesar barfi. We love them all. But a new flavour couldn’t hurt. So, what do you think about kiwi barfi?

There can be two ways to make kiwi barfi. One is put chunks of kiwi inside a regular kaju barfi. Two is, get kiwi extract and barfi out of kiwi. Either way, you just gave the popular Indian sweet a Western fruity touch.

  • Phirni Thandai

This one again isn’t quite an Indo Western fusion dessert. Both thandai and phirni are very much Indian desserts. The dry fruits for garnish are available in India too. But the taste of thandai phirni has to be amazing no matter what process is followed for the recipe.

  • Caramel Popcorn with Elaichi twist

Anybody who loves the elaichi flavour will love this caramel popcorn clusters. These have already been aced by some dessert makers. The flavours and the recipe perfected already. All you need to do is give it a try.

  • Motichoor ki Rabdi

You can make a parfait with motichoor and rabdi.

Everybody loves rabdi and everybody loves motichoor. Sometimes a good fusion is in blending two eastern ingredients in the desired western recipe.

  • Butterscotch Sheera

This is a very quick recipe. It is simple but tasty. Butterscotch toffee is made and sheera is made and they are put together. Simple as that. The good thing is, it is very tasty.

  • Choco Gujiya

This is not quite the fusion dessert you will want to serve at a wedding or any big event. But imagine a twist with the gujiya wherever people expected regular gujiya. Go for chocolate cinnamon gujiyas. They will have milk solids inside and a totally chocolate cover. You can put in nuts too. Add some cinnamon sugar for flavour.

  • Saffron Macaroons in Jars

Macaroons are so Western and saffron is so Indian. Simply blend the dessert with the flavour. To add to the complexity, add some cardamom and chocolate ganache to really blend in the flavours of Indo Western fusion altogether.

  • Apple and Coconut Barfi

This isn’t too complex an idea but the taste is amazing. The flavours are fresh. It is something people haven’t tried too often, or at all.

So, be the first to serve this to your guests. As long as the texture is smooth and the sweetness is balanced, you cannot go wrong with this one.

  • Kesar Badaam Cupcakes

This is once again, self explanatory. Anybody who can make cupcakes will know how to add in the flavour of saffron and nuts. Don’t overdo with the flavours. Saffron has a very strong smell. Go for the right amount, just a dash, and you are golden.

  • Turmeric Ice Cream

Sounds like a disaster right? It will be if you put too much turmeric. Go for a regular neutral or sweetish ice cream and add a dash of turmeric while churning. Nothing speaks Indian like turmeric. Make your Indian flavoured ice cream a thing at parties.

  • Peach Curd

Get peach, process it, smoothen the texture, add to the regular curdling milk, give time to set. This isn’t even a little difficult.

You can do this anytime. You will love it so much you won’t want to wait for some special occasion.

  • Avocado Sandesh

This is probably the closest sweets which can get healthy. With the sweetness factor reduced and avocados introduced in the recipe, the Indian kalakand can have a makeover that will fetch hundreds of new fans.

  • Mango Muffins

This one again is nothing difficult to make. It is already popular. The blend is perfect. To add to the Indian flavours, you can add some cardamoms or sesame to the muffin.

  • Chestnut Pannacotta

Italian cream recipe with freshwater chestnuts is a good blend for an Indo Western dessert, what say? You will love this dessert. Trust your gut and make it a part of the next important event you will host.

The presentation of the dessert matters the most. The desserts need to be prepared a day early and refrigerated with care. Those that need to be fresh on spot are difficult to manage. The common ingredients like milk, curd, cheese, nuts, and cream need to be balanced out. The fruits have to be fresh. The pulp has to be smooth. It is not difficult to make great fusion desserts. Go to the right place for your desired dessert. India is coming up with some of the best Indo Western dessert places.

  • Mandap

The wedding mandap, exclusively made for performing Indian wedding rituals is the prime focus inside the wedding hall. It needs to be well prepared with flowers and everything beautiful. Make sure it is big enough for the phere, the holy fire, and the priest to move about freely in. The mandap is typically decorated with flowers and drapes. To make it stand out, use some pinwheels in addition. Make sure the drapes are secured to the posts. Keep inflammable things away from the fire.

Go for strong strings holding big flowers. If you are using big flowers, space them out. If you are using small flowers, use a lot of them. Match the drapes with the colour of the bride’s wedding outfit. There will be an aesthetic symmetry to it. Use many colours and don’t forget to use some white. White makes the other colours stand out. That is for the flowers. For the drapes, either use pastels like peach and lilac, or bright colours like red and orange.

  • Entrance

The entrance decoration to the wedding venue is the first impression your guests will have about your wedding. Make sure it is stunning. Have the bride and groom’s names written in cool graphiti. Have a series of broad arcs for the guests to walk under. Do not go cheap on the entrance. Avoid the balloons. Go for greens and flowers. A lush green canopy with some creepers dangling around is the perfect entrance to a wedding.

  • Dining area

The dining area is often right after the entrance. Look for a wedding venue where the dining venue is somewhere else, inside, away from plain sight. It should be in a secluded place that isn’t also a passage for everybody getting in and out of the venue. You have all the freedom to decorate it however you want. You can have an open space with string lights or a place with a roof and lampshades hanging. Freshen up the place with a lot of little plant pods, unless it is already a garden.

  • Dining tables

It is fun to decorate dining tables, mostly because there are numerous options. The tablecloths need to be beautiful, to begin with. The cutlery and plates need to be of light and fine glass. Coloured glass will make it all look so much prettier. Have vases at each table. Lampshades will be a good idea too. It will keep the table lit well without putting too bright light in your eyes while you eat.

  • Wedding room

The wedding room has to be a big one because many people will want to be in it during the wedding. The air conditioning must work properly, especially for the sake of the bride and the groom who will have too many things all over them, suffocating them literally.

Keep the wedding room decorations simple. Ample lighting, some drapes to give coloured layers to the light. Make sure the rest of the room is not more decorated than the mandap itself. Frame the doors and windows with flowers. Cover the walls in drapes.

  • Lighting

The lighting is one of the most crucial elements of any event decor. The right lighting can make everything look ten times better. Wrong lighting can kill everything. Make sure every pathway is lit with bulbs covered in beautiful yellow and orange lampshades. Covering the plants in fairy lights is a little tacky. Go for coloured bulb strings over them instead.

  • Drapes

There has to be a lot of drapes for a wedding decoration. That isn’t a new piece of information. The trick is to get the colour combinations and fabric right. Get satin for the drapes. This fabric has the exact transparency required to let just enough light to pass through to keep things well lit. Go for reds and pinks around the wedding mandap or peach and yellow. Do not mix up all the colours in the same place. It will look tacky. Put the light pink and purple in the same place. Put the yellow and orange together. Put red and purple together.

  • Walls

The walls need to be covered if they are not painted to fit the colour of the lighting and the drapes. Cover them entirely in the drapes. Give a different tone to each room. Also, the outer walls of the building need to be well decorated. String lights are common but still the best option. Again, don’t go for one string each of every colour. Keep it to a single colour, maybe yellow or white, to make it bright. Never go for pink, blue, yellow, everything together. It will look, you know it by now… tacky.

  • Flowers

The flower arrangements have to be done very meticulously. Flowers are where most of the decoration money goes. So with a strategic arrangement of flowers, you can use the least of them and still fill up the whole place. Go for green leaves in pods for starters. Cover some of the walls in plants. Keep plants on either side of the passages. Keep flower vases on the dining tables. Put big flowers at a reasonable distance among the plants. The mandap has to have a lot of flowers.

  • Photo Booths

Too many people try to take selfies at weddings and that ends up getting the place crowded. So, make a special corner dedicated to photographs. Keep it well lit with white and yellow lights. Keep a mirror if you want to but make sure there is a dressing room open for guests where women will line up to fix their lipsticks, or men will fix their hair. You know how it gets when you have mirrors. So, make sure the photo booth mirror is for photo sessions only. Decorate the photo booth with quirky decorations. You can even use different wedding themes and décor ideas too.

  • Flower Chaadar

The bridal flower chaadar has to be as stunning as the bride’s wedding attire. Get a strong framework for it and make it just as long as it needs to be. Too long chaadars needs to have more handles and more handlers.

It becomes complicated when too many people need to hold it while entering the wedding venue or climbing down the stairs. Put nice lights in it or tassles to make it look unique. The dupatta and the flowers in it will, of course, be there.

  • Ingredients for rituals

There will be various ingredients for every ritual to follow on the wedding day. But for a long time, they will just have to be there and not be used. So, you need to make sure they are arranged well. Keep a separate box for everything. Keep boxes of various shapes and put them in decorated trays. Place them in the order the priest will be needing them. It just shows how well organised you can be.

  • Stage

The wedding mandap is not the only stage there will be. The stage where the bride and groom sit on their royal chairs and have to stand up to get clicked with their relatives and friends, is the stage they will be on most of the time. Decorate it with flowers, evenly placed carpets that do not fold in to trip anyone, and enough lighting. Make sure the drapes do not cast a shadow on the chairs because the bride and groom’s faces need to be clear in the candid photos taken.

  • Car

The wedding car is iconic in an Indian wedding. The car looks unique in an Indian wedding decorations concept. But you don’t want it to look too typical. So, instead of just covering it with flowers, go for leaves too. Make a canopy on the roof of the car. Put some vines on the sides and stick attractive flowers in the vines. Make sure the front and back are not cluttered with decorations. The driver’s vision shouldn’t be blocked. It is weird so many people make this rookie mistake and have half the decoration undone because of not thinking things through.

  • Your house

Most weddings don’t take place in the bride’s own house anymore. If your house is the venue you have nothing else to take care of. But if it isn’t there will be some guests or co-hosts helping you out making trips back and forth. So, some string lights along the outer walls and some flower decor at the entrance of your house is a must. Also, the rooms that are unlocked should be tidy, no matter how busy you were. Assign someone to clear up after you.

These wedding decoration ideas will help you pull off a great Indian wedding.

Use the upturned umbrellas and stuff them to the brim with colourful flowers, urns or any other item that looks good with your chosen umbrellas. Even embroidered umbrellas on a colourful palate could be used to inject a traditional feel. You may use a transparent plastic umbrella and fill it with some fripperies as well.

  • Over a Seating Arrangement

When the seating style is a banquet or cabaret then indulge in some décor of that area as well.

Long, straight and shiny is every girl’s dream. If you are fighting dry and frizzy hair, them it is the matter of inside health. Here go your first tips for hair growth. Try to add protein to your diet because your hair demands it in abundance. Start with eggs.

  • Trim your Hair regularly

Trimming is very essential. Your hair while growing tends to grow some spilt ends or weakened and rough ends that give a bad look as well stunts the growth after some time. For a healthier and quicker growth, you need to keep the ends regularly trimmed. This will enhance the growth and keep the lustre of the hair intact.

  • A Hot Oil Treatment

Blame it on pollution or your everyday busy schedule that leads to hair problems. An ancient wisdom that we ignore but is a pure miracle in hair growth is hot oil massage. Putting nominally heated oil on a scalp closes the opened up pores and activates our hair follicles, thus increasing the growth of hair.

Olive oil, almond oil, coconut oil, castor oil, lavender oil are some of the types that when applied remedies the problems of dandruff, hair loss and stimulates hair growth. Moreover, oil acts as a nice hair conditioner which softens up the hair after shampooing.

  • Braid your Hair

You may call it a grandma’s tip but, braiding your hair, specifically after applying oil is a key to faster hair growth. It reduces frictional breakage as the end of the hair close to the scalp is nearly immobile.

Thus, getting less contact with any fabric reduces the breakage problem. But, remember not to tie the hair too tightly. Thus, braiding your hair is like an added shield that could be used in growing hair faster and naturally.

  • Scalp Massage/Spa

While showering you may give yourself a gentle 10-20 minute of scalp massage or spa treatment to activate your pores. It is beneficial in every way and is a great stimulator for faster hair growth. This is one of the steps being included in bridal makeup tips and skin care for the bride. The blood circulation gets increased thus increasing hair growth.

  • Do not use Straightener or Roller

It would be best to avoid the use of these heating devices over your hair as it tends to burn the strands a little even after you take great care in straightening or curling them. The intense heat given out can damage your locks giving them a dried out appearance.

  • Limit your Shampoo

No need to wash your hair like a maniac every day. Remember these are chemicals and a regular wash of every day could dry and damage the strands. You can shampoo for two to three times a week. Excessive washing can weaken the follicles which could result in hair loss. Thus use a sulphate free shampoo that does not absorb the moisture from the strands. Apply the conditioner from the middle of your hair till the end. Do not apply conditioner from the scalp. This will surely damage your hair follicles if you do so.

  • Use Cold Water

Cold water is truly effective in reducing the excessive hair fall. It closes up the open pores so that hair is not affected by any outside dirt or grease. Washing your hair with too hot water could dry out the scalp and make the root brittle. Thus one of the tips for hair growth is to use cold water. Just cool down your shower and dunk your head under the cold water for its soothing as well as beneficial effect.

  • DIY your Hair Treatment

All in all, you are very well aware of how to take care of your hair. Thus, to add the feather to the cap, give another boost to hair treatment and try out a different variety of traditional packs. The Multani Mitti pack, Curd pack, egg mask, amla or Indian gooseberry pack are some of the tips for hair growth. Try the one that suits your hair texture whether it being oily, dry or normal and put on the effective pack accordingly.

  • Give it a Gentle Hand

No need to tug or brush out your hair rashly if you have a mess in them. Use a serum to open the jumbled up strands and have a little patience while brushing. A rash brushing can cause damage to good hair. Do not brush out over wet hair. Let it dry and then apply brush or comb as the root is brittle when washed.

Following these tips would prove to be a miracle when you apply them for a long time as the result would be a long haul hair care from you. Not only for the wedding, can these tips be applied in your daily hair care as well to give a splendid result on the day of your wedding.
