For Women in Tamil Culture, holy thread of marriage (Thali), Kum-kum (saffron smearing on the forehead), bangles and flowers are a symbol of pride, prosperity and auspiciousness. Long hair is also a symbol of auspiciousness and marital virtue for Tamil women. In Tamil culture, married women apply fragrant oil on their hair, clip flowers to their tress and use aromatic incences to dry their hair. All these things are done by married women only when then hsubands are alive and strictly avoided by the widows. Young women enjoy the bliss of fashion by making themselves beautiful with some natural cosmetics and they give more importance to their long hair. Thus, long hair of women has cultural significance in their life from birth to death. This article attempts to explore how different the usage of tress found in “Kurunthogai”. |
