It’s extremely important to embrace your tradition and culture in one way or another on your wedding day. While people from North India do it in the form of donning a chooda or following a certain ceremony, people belonging to the Southern part of India have their own set of cultures and traditions. That’s why today we decided to highlight that one specific culture or practice that the Tamilian brides religiously follow. Yes, we are talking about the traditional yet unique andal kondai hairstyle.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with this hairstyle, this hairdo has a small bun to the side of the braid which is the Kondai and Andal is a goddess worshipped by this community so every bride is treated as goddess Andal due to this hairdo. This hairdo is so unique and special that we couldn’t help but feature real brides who have looked exceptional in this hairstyle on their wedding day.
