WATCH: Bald bride breaks societal barriers at her wedding
(Web Desk) - A few popular moments often happen when people do not follow societal expectations and follow the voice of their hearts.
Neehar Sachdeva has done just that.
Diagnosed with alopecia at just six months old, Neehar’s journey has been full of self-acceptance and satisfaction over what comes in life.
Indian-born US resident Neehar Sachdeva wore a wig to hide her alopecia problem since her school life.
She became very popular in 2021 with the front photo of the #TheBaldBrownBride movement with Brown Girl Magazine, which focused to normalize baldness for brides.
“The fact that we belonged to South Asian culture played a huge part in my family being so scared and secretive. At no fault to my parents, because that was just how they were raised,” she said to Browngirl Magazine.
Neehar Sachdeva’s viral video from her marriage quickly attracted fame. Walking down the aisle in a stunning red lehenga, she removed her veil mid-way, proudly revealing her bald head.
The viral footage captured the hearts of thousands who praised her poise and beauty. She was not hiding her baldness but showing it off, making a bold statement as a proud Bald Bride.
This viral moment of Neehar has sparked a conversation about challenging beauty standards. Despite experiencing bullying growing up, her decision to embrace her baldness at such a significant moment has made her a viral sensation for all the right reasons.
The impact of this viral video has spread across social media, with many praising her for being a role model for other Bald Brides.
