Artificial Red Rose Bud String – Hair Flower Mala (22 Inch)

Description

Red roses in the hair have always meant celebration in our homes. Think of brides tucking a rose beside their malli, little girls with a single rose pinned above the ear for a school function, or the women in the family all wearing roses together for a wedding. Fresh roses look beautiful, but they bruise easily and start to droop within a few hours. This artificial red rose bud string keeps that look perfectly fresh for the whole day, and for many more occasions after that.

Each bud is crocheted from soft woollen yarn in a true, deep red and shaped like a tightly closed rose bud, with green stems showing between the clusters. The buds sit close together along the string, so it looks full and rich in your hair, almost like a hand-tied rose mala from the flower market.

At 22 inches, it’s long enough to drape down a half-up hairstyle, run along a braid, or wrap around a bun. You can pin it in with regular bobby pins. Because it’s made of yarn, it feels soft on the skin and won’t scratch, so it’s comfortable to wear through long functions, even for little ones.

You can wear the same rose string to a wedding, a reception, a festival, a temple visit, a Bharatanatyam performance or a saree photoshoot, and it will look exactly the same every time. When it needs freshening up, wash it gently and let it dry.

It looks especially striking against dark sarees and red blouses. It also pairs beautifully with our artificial jasmine string for that classic red and white combination.
