The braid and the sari are the quintessential hairstyle and garment that women in India don every day. They are both texture and text. The braid-often kept long and styled with flowers (especially in South India) or lengthened with extensions (as in North India)-is a prized possession with both aesthetic and spiritual meanings. The sari is a length of untailored cloth material that has been the traditional everyday garb of Indian women for millennia.
