Hair Choti - Indian Hair Plait Jewellery

A Touch of Tradition, A Whisper of Romance

There’s something timeless about a braid adorned with a Hair Choti — delicate, graceful, and steeped in heritage. Once favoured by Mughal princesses, these ornate strands now add soft elegance to South Asian hairstyles.

Hair Choti jewellery is a traditional Indian hair accessory worn along the plait, most commonly in South Indian and bridal looks. At Indian Jewellery Store, we offer a handmade range of choti ornaments with gold tones, pearls, temple motifs, jhumki ends and more, crafted for weddings, festivals (such as South Indian festivals & Karvachot), pujas and special occasions.

For a classic South Indian style, wear your Choti over a traditional long braid. Add a hair extension for fullness. For a more modern Pakistani or Punjabi look, layer it gently over a loose, messy braid — soft, romantic, and effortlessly modern.

These are not just for brides — they’re also worn by wedding guests for Mehndis, Nikkahs, and ceremonies, adding pretty, girl-next-door charm to every festive outfit.

Simply secure your Choti using the built-in hooks, then discreetly fasten with U-shaped hair pins or bun pins along the plait for long-lasting hold and graceful drape.

A trending bridal look right now is to wear cascading saharas that sweep dramatically from your earrings to the top of your plait — connecting the hair choti and earrings in a flowing, regal silhouette.

Our collection pairs beautifully with Matha Pattis, Passas, and other Indian head jewellery to create your perfect bridal or celebratory hairstyle.

For the finishing touch, pair your look with a dainty saree belt and let your beauty channel the romance of a bygone Mughal era — timeless, feminine, and full of grace.
