The Chignon has been a trending wedding hairdo in both the North and South Indian weddings in recent times. Coming from the French expression “chignon du cou” which means “nape of the neck”, it is a rather sensual hairdo that is donned as a casual daily hairstyle as well. In the reception look, since the attire can be grand like an extensively embroidered lehenga or a heavy bordered traditional silk saree, a simple chignon with minimal flowers like few roses or others will compliment the attire with grace.
