A hair pin for devotees of Mahadev. The design brings together the symbols of Lord Shiva: a large Om with a crescent moon and a round bead above it, a ribbed damru drum across the middle and a trishul trident pointing to the side, all on two long straight prongs.
The symbols are sculpted in three dimensions and finished in oxidised silver tone, so the ribbing on the damru and the points of the trishul stand out clearly. The two long prongs slide into a bun so the symbols rest on top. It weighs about 15 g.
The Om is the sacred sound, the crescent moon adorns Shiva's hair, the damru is the drum of creation and the trishul his trident. Wearing them in your hair is a quiet, personal expression of devotion that also looks striking.
Wear it in a low bun with a white, rudraksha-brown or saffron kurta or saree for Mahashivratri, Sawan Mondays or a temple visit. It also suits everyday wear with a cotton kurta for anyone who likes spiritual jewellery. Pair with a rudraksha bracelet or simple silver studs.
It is meaningful and unusual: few hair accessories carry Shiva's symbols, and this one is detailed enough to be recognised at a glance.
Brush the hair back smoothly and tie a ponytail at the height you want the bun. Twist the ponytail, wrap it around its base and secure the end with a rubber band or two bobby pins. Decide which side the decoration should face, then slide the pin in from the top of the bun at a slight angle, so the prongs travel through the coiled hair rather than straight down. Give your head a gentle shake: if the pin moves, push it a little deeper. A light mist of hair spray before you add the pin helps it grip silky hair.
Slide the pin into a firm bun, braid or gathered section of hair, from the side the decoration should face, so the prongs hide inside the hair and only the decorated head shows. It sits exactly as in the photos.
Oxidised and silver-tone hair jewellery loves dry air. Put it in after hair oil, serum and spray have dried, take it out before washing your hair, and wipe it with a soft dry cloth before putting it away. Store it in a zip pouch or a small box so the prongs do not bend and the details do not scratch against other pieces.
