Lachchhas making a comeback

Once worn only by married women, lachchhas have recently become a popular hair accessory among young unmarried women.

Of all the aesthetically pleasing pictures that twenty-five-year-old Shristi Buda Magar ( Cristi Mgr ) has uploaded on her Instagram account, one photo that draws immediate attention is the one where she is wearing a lachchha , a hair accessory typically worn with traditional attire. But in Magar’s photo, she is seen wearing a lachchha with an oversized black t-shirt.
