Description

The Jadai Set is used in both Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi. Traditionally, dancers adorned their hair with flowers, but today, the Jadai Set has largely replaced this practice, although Jasmine and Kadambham flowers continue to be popular choices for hair decoration. The Jadai set is a crucial element in Bharatanatyam, playing both an aesthetic and symbolic role in the dance. Jadai set which is made of stone or gold plated is kept along the length of the hair.

It may be of single pieces consisting of nearly seven pieces kept leaving a gap in between the false braided hair or connected ones which seems lengthy. For some dances, the dancers use to place this decorated braided hair in the front so that it is more visible to the
audience and also gives a special charm to the dancer.

The jadai set not only enhances the visual appeal but also complements the overall presentation by accentuating the dancer’s grace and posture. The ornamentation is designed to secure the dancer’s hair in place while showcasing the elegance and discipline of Bharatanatyam.Explore Zara’s 50-plus varieties of Jadai sets and choose the one that suits your style andelegance.
