Description

"After oiling and combing the hair, the woman would braid or tie her hair in a neat bun. Then she would decorate her fashioned hair with variety of hair ornaments — pins, clips, flowers, feathers. Today, we can no longer afford to devote that kind of time and such styles are out of fashion but a look at the sculptural art of India shows an array of hair ornaments. Each region and period had its own style and name.
