Bipasha's snazzy new look
By: Upala KBR, Mid-Day
Bipasha Basu returned from London on Monday night after completing the shooting of Ashtavinayak's next film directed by Abbas-Mustan.
For the first time since she came to tinsel town, the actress is sporting a short hairstyle. Here, her stylist Sapna Bhavnani from Mad O Wot salon in Bandra talks about the actress's new look, which she styled for an upcoming film.
Bips experiments
Says Sapna, who has been cutting and styling Bipasha's hair for more than two years, "Bipasha is very willing to experiment and is always playing about with her hair colours and styling. More than three weeks ago, she came to me and said she wanted a shorter hairstyle for Abbas-Mustan's new film.
She could have worn a wig but one can always make out that it's a wig. So I suggested a shoulder length, feminine, cute, Lolita-kind look in dark brown. Blonde shades don't suit her, but darker shades like burgundy and jet black go perfectly with her skin tone."
Aren't there two looks for the film? "Yes, one is a longer hairstyle with these super-long hair extensions and the other is the shorter hairstyle. She had the same long hair for Dhoom 2, but the colour was different. In Dhoom 2, Bipasha has coloured her hair in copper and red. "
A family affair
Sapna has known Bipasha for over three years now, "I used to style her hair in Juhu. When I opened my own salon in Bandra, she was one of the first celebrities to come to my salon. John (Abraham) cuts his hair here. Even Bips family - her mom, sisters and nephews are all regulars. In fact, Bipasha often comes to the salon just for John's haircut."
