Keep trendy with bindi
A Bindi is a red sign used by Hindus to protect the person from evil. However, with the new colors and shapes added to it, it is now a fashionable mark that young girls love to use.
There are some marks that are considered as a must in some civilizations and are part of dignity for a cast or a whole nation. Bindi is the same thing and it is a mark of dignity and proud for the Hindu women. Sometimes, it can be said to be a part of religious beliefs and Hindus believe that the mark will keep the veil spirits away from the married couple. It is also thought to be the sign that shows whether a woman is married or not. However, this is not the mark of only married ladies now because in larger cities it has been adopted as fashion and young girls are also placing this mark on their forehead.
Tilaka is another similar thing and is placed on the head of male members of Hindu families. It is believed that all the excellence of the man is gathered at the point on the forehead between the eyebrows of a person and a mark or a large sized dot is drawn on that place usually with a red color. It is believed that Bindi saves the person from any danger and keeps him safe and sound. Some of the orthodox people say that it is all about gaining the will of gods. However, people having modern approach and who have totally separated themselves from the religion are not the followers of this point and they consider all such things as a part of their tradition with nothing factual. Still nothing can be declared by any person because this symbol is a sign of excellence of Hindu nation.
In old times, when Bindi was just a big sized red colored spot on the forehead, there was no demand of the sing and young girls never wanted to have it on their foreheads. With the passage of time, things have changed and different styles have been introduced in different colors. You can choose a color of your own will according to the color of the dress you are wearing. If you want a multi shaded Bindi, then you can get it readymade in the market. Most of the fabric shops have a number of such marks available in different colors. Sometimes, a pack of ten prepared marks is available in the shops. However, choice can be made among the colors of the mark.
Matching forehead marks surely give a great look to the person wearing a dress matching the color of a Bindi. The color decision is also made according to the woman’s/ girl’s skin color. Blonde woman may prefer those with dark color to make an elegant contrast on their skins while dark colored skin is perfectly a match to some bale, sparkling or cool colored ornaments. The color of the eyes is another matter to take care of when choosing on these facial marks. In addition to color you can also choose the style of this mark as nowadays Bindi with long length are quite popular. The time has persuaded the young girls to keep on using the traditional mark even to look trendy.
