What do most Indian brides have in common? It’s the famous sindoor. Other than the newlywed glow, you’ll often find brides sporting a red tint on their foreheads. The marker of a wedded woman, sindoor, brings along a sense of tradition and culture to your attire. Although it’s a very small part of your ensemble, it plays an important role. Whether you are a newlywed bride or one who sports this go-to accessory everyday (or during festivals), here are 8 ways in which you can style your sindoor. These modern sindoor styles pair well with Indian ethnic wear, as well as your contemporary western looks! Here’s how you can style them correctly.

 

Different Styles Of Wearing Sindoor 

 

Sindoor comes in different forms. You have loose powders, liquids, and crayon pencils. They come in a variety of red to orange hues. Depending on your desired look and how long you want it to last, you can take your pick from the array of sindoor products. Scroll down to see 8 different styles of wearing sindoor and how you can pair it with your Indian and western wear.

This modern sindoor style fits in well with the traditional wear, as well as your basic jeans and t-shirt combo. A small, thin line that starts slightly below your hairline and goes down half an inch into your parting is controlled and minimal. It still gives off those bridal vibes like no other.
