Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 'Flowers- Pattai' used for in Bharatnatyam?
A: The 'Flowers- Pattai', also known as 'Base Flower' or 'Cloth Flower', serves as a foundational hair ornament in Bharatnatyam. It provides a base to which other hair decorations like 'Jadai Billai' (hair ornaments) and fresh flowers are attached, completing the dancer's elaborate hairstyle. A secure 'Flowers- Pattai' is crucial for maintaining the hairstyle's integrity throughout a performance, especially during intricate footwork and poses like 'Aramandi'.
Q: How do I properly attach the 'Flowers- Pattai' to my hair for a Bharatnatyam performance?
A: Secure the 'Flowers- Pattai' firmly at the base of the dancer's bun or braid. Use bobby pins or hairpins to ensure it sits snugly against the head, preventing any movement during the dance. Consider the weight of additional ornaments you will attach to it; the base must be strong enough to support them. Proper placement is key for a polished look, particularly important for significant performances like 'Arangetram'.
Q: What are the different types of 'Flowers- Pattai' available, and which is best for my needs?
A: Variations exist in size, material, and design. Smaller 'Flowers- Pattai' are suitable for younger dancers or simpler hairstyles, while larger ones offer more surface area for elaborate decorations. Material choices range from basic cloth to more ornate options with embellishments. The 'Flowers- Pattai' needs to match the attire. The best choice depends on the dancer's age, the complexity of the hairstyle, and the overall aesthetic of the costume.
Q: How do I care for and store my 'Flowers- Pattai' to ensure its longevity?
A: After each performance, gently remove any fresh flowers or decorations attached to the 'Flowers- Pattai'. Store it in a clean, dry place, preferably in a box or bag to protect it from dust and damage. Avoid exposing it to excessive heat or moisture, which can weaken the adhesive or materials. With proper care, a well-made 'Flowers- Pattai' can last for many years, serving a dancer through numerous performances and recitals.
