Assalamoalaikum to all.

my face is small so which type of tikkah would look good?please post pics of tikkah and hairstyle weth tikkah.

is tikka in fashion?
i am not talking about brides.

Re: wearing tikkah

It depends entirely on what other jewellery you are wearing. Avoid wearing a necklace, earings and a tikka as you will look very OTT. Unless they are small and delicate. The tikka size should depend on the size of your forehead, the bigger the forehead, the bigger the tikka can be.

Your suit is very pretty, has lots of kaam on it so I would avoid wearing a necklace, earing and a tikka would do fine. For the mehndi you could have a middle parting and a plait, that would look cute. On the wedding, maybe a puff with the tikka in the middle.

No, I wanted you to post this in the Weddings forum. Gina moved it from Fashion & Beauty.

Yes, you can wear a tikka with shalwar kameez or with any outfit you want. Alexander McQueen paired a matha patti with a dress and every one just loved it!

Usually new brides wear their tikkas to other weddings and even unmarried girls, too.

Re: wearing tikkah

It will look good even if you don’t have your dupatta on your head:

Re: Wearing tikka with Shalwar Kameez

Wear a small tikka if yiu have a small face. Oh yes, tikkas look good with salwar kamiz as well. People have been wearing them with salwar kamiz for a long time.

Not taking he face shape into consideration, here is what XPOZÉ MONTHLY has to say about the topic:

For the upcoming shadi season, if you plan to go all traditional by wearing a maang tikka at your favorite cousin’s or siblings wedding, make sure your face is balanced out by applying a darker lip color. Red lips are very ‘this’ season. For this strong look, stick to muted colors for eyes (eye shades in golds and browns are your best bet) and a very light dash of mascara.
Tikkas look best in the ‘chand tara’ shape… and the bigger they are, the better they look! Avoid wearing any other jewelry with this statement piece. And if at all you have to, then stick to tiny gold hoops!

yeah,i want to buy this very round TYPE of tikka in small size:)

:wub:wow i love this one…thanks MS:flowers:
gosh…i cant dare to wear red lips,i love red lip colour though:D…ummm ok i will apply somewhat darker lip colour.i dont decorate my eyes with mascara ,liner etc,use only kajal.

If you have a large forehead, you can wear bigger tikka's.. if you have a round face, a tear-drop tikka would look lovely

Re: Wearing tikka with Shalwar Kameez
