Style Your Maang Tikka Different Ways With These Amazing Festive Hairstyles

As the festive season has almost begun in the country, with Raksha Badhan, Hariyali Teej, Onam, Janmashtmi, etc, just around the corner, everyone seems to be busy selecting the perfect outfit, makeup, and ornaments. Speaking of jewellery, one of the most spectacular and loved pieces is the maang tikka, which acts as the oozing factor for any look. But, even if you have the most perfect matha patti, with rich Kundan work or Meenakari, a wrong hairstyle can end up taking away your spotlight. Of course, none of us want that to happen! Hence, you need to select a coiffure that not only enhances your look but also make others green with envy of your maang tikka.

• Lastly, gather all your hair at the back and make a low bun. Secure it with pins and you’re good to go!

• Once your curls are ready, apply a generous amount of setting spray to keep them intact. 
• Part your hair from the center and carefully place the tikka. Secure it on your crown section with bobby pins. 
• Then, starting from the temple of your head, part thin hair strands. Repeat the same on both sides. 
• On the parted hairline, carefully place the patti of your maang tikka. 
• Secure it with bobby pins on either side and comb your hair, bringing most of it in the front.

Steps 

• Take a flat iron and straighten up your hair, if you have wavy or curly hair.
