Keeping her hair healthy and beautiful for her big day is usually on top of a bride’s checklist. And the prep starts early: Regular oiling, hair spas, massages, and the works. While all of this is great, you need a plan B—clip-in extensions. India’s leading hairstylists Sapna Bhavnani and Clarabelle Saldanha tell you how you can use extensions to create the perfect look. WHAT ARE THEY? Clip-in extensions are exactly what their name suggests: Extensions that can be clipped in. They are made of real or synthetic hair and are a great tool to add instant thickness, length, and volume. MATERIAL Natural extensions are always a better option but are more expensive.

You’ve taken every precaution to ensure a flawless and radiant complexion on your wedding day. But what about the skin on the rest of your body? An equally rigorous beauty routine is a must for silky legs and firm arms. Whether you’re exchanging vows in a midriff-baring lehenga or island-hopping in a bikini on your honeymoon, radiant skin is a must. DRY BRUSHING is an effective way to increase blood circulation and encourage lymphatic drainage, giving you a natural glow from within. Although this method won’t eradicate cellulite, it can help reduce the appearance of dimples. “Cellulite occurs when fat and fluid bulge through the connective tissue that binds muscles to the skin. As we age and skin loses its elasticity, these bulges become more prominent. Dry brushing increases circulation…

Love at work I got a job at Tapan’s clinic in Mumbai in 2014. Discussions on sports medicine soon veered towards personal conversations and before we knew it, we were in love. Dating for three years and my Master’s in Australia was followed by a romantic proposal in Alibaug towards the end of 2019. And on January 26th, 2020 we were married! All in the details I wanted a filmy wedding, on the lines of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. We had only 200 guests and four functions: the haldi, sundowner, sangeet, and wedding. Though our budget was limited, we added several quirky elements that really personalised things, from funky décor photo booths to a flashmob during the haldi! Staying within budget Our venue, the Rivergate Resort in Karjat, gave us…

THE FIRST THING TO DO IS LIMIT THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE YOU INVITE—STICK TO FAMILY AND YOUR CORE GROUP OF FRIENDS. NEXT, CREATE A BUDGET ACCORDING TO WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT TO YOU.

FROM THE EDITOR Here is my prediction for 2020: The brand (or do I call it an app?) Zoom is going to turn into a verb. Working remotely has become the new normal. What is interesting is how quickly everyone is adapting to it. By the time we reached out to the lovely Athiya Shetty and the extremely talented photographer Rahul Jhangiani, the Brides Today team was all systems go. Fashion director Mohan Neelakantan and fashion editor Smridhi Sibal had their moodboard ready, creative director Yurreipem Arthur had her lighting and layout at hand, and deputy editor Jahnavi Prasad had a PPT ready for the content. In 20 minutes, we had a date, time, and location. Our concept was simple: Nostalgia. While we are navigating our way through what can…

WHAT IS IT? No bridal trousseau is complete without a polki set. Made of unfinished natural diamonds, this craft celebrates the stone in its rawest form. HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM KUNDAN? The two look quite similar and use some of the same crafting techniques. If you are deciding which one to invest in, it may help to know how to distinguish between them before you choose. While polki is made of uncut diamonds, kundan uses glass stones. Consequently, the former is more expensive. HOW TO SET YOUR BUDGET Pratiksha Prashant, CEO of Kishandas & Co, a Hyderabad-based jewellery brand, says that the price of a set varies, depending on cut and size of the stone being used. Your jeweller must always share the resale/buyback value of the set you…

1 Activate your senses When you curl up with a book or make some chai, try to slow down and enjoy the exercise. Suzy Reading, a chartered psychologist based in the United Kingdom and author of Self Care for Tough Times says, “The simplest way to build the mindfulness muscle is by using our senses. Be on the lookout for a scent you are familiar with, and love. As you do this, try and activate your other senses of sight, touch, taste, and notice how this changes your mood. The more you do this, the more mindful you become and the upward spiral of positivity grows.” 2 Come back to your breath breath Nothing can bring you back into the present moment quite like your breath, particularly when you are…

Brides Today: What inspired you to become a hairstylist? Gabriel Georgiou: I always loved the arts and was drawn to creative fields such as painting, dancing, acting, sculpting, and photography. My brother chose hairdressing and I followed in his footsteps. I was attracted to what I saw on the runways during fashion weeks and in magazines, and films. BT: How can a bride achieve her healthiest hair in time for her wedding? GG: It’s a combination of factors—good nutrition, hydration, and low stress levels. A lot of people just use shampoo, which keeps the cuticles open, exposing hair to environmental damage and eventually leaving ends dry and brittle. When applying conditioner, massage your scalp in circular motions. This helps bring circulation to the scalp and stimulates the roots and pores…

And which bride doesn’t want to look stunning in her wedding photographs and on Instagram? With this goal in mind, we give you the lowdown on how to get your body in the best possible shape for your wedding.

it’s the last few weeks until your big day, and the excitement (and hectic schedule) is at its peak.

Rujuta Diwekar, celebrity nutritionist, exercise science expert, and author of The 12-week Fitness Project, details three simple steps that you can follow to achieve your best body yet.

“BRIDES, TODAY, ARE SO SURE OF THEMSELVES. MY JOB IS TO HELP THEM ENABLE THEIR DREAM.

The key to getting beautiful hair in time for your wedding is to boost its health from the inside out. While growth, texture, colour, and volume are genetic, diet plays a crucial role as well. Brides Today details eight expert-approved foods that promise to get your hair nourished and healthy for your big day. SPINACH Spinach is loaded with iron. “Iron deficiency is one of the most common reasons why people develop flaky hair, which in turn leads to hair fall.
