Coloring grey hair naturally:-

Can't wait any longer to share a secret with u.... I've grey hair since I was in 10th standard. Tried everything from medicine to hair color. But nothing worked. Hair colors cover d grey but with d time they did more harm, which results in thinning hair :( then I tried d natural way i.e henna. Let me tell u frankly that my hair texture improved a lot. But henna color my greys orange which looked similar to copper wire. But I can't afford to loose my strands more. & from there my search for better hair color started. I kept on experimenting with henna...some addition & subtraction. & bingo!! Finally I got d results.
Trust me this is 100% natural & will do only good to ur hair. For a blackish brown shade add 1:3 proportion of henna & pure indigo powder ( I buy it from Amazon. It'll cost near about 300-350/- for 500gms). Try to use body art quality henna.
Soak only d henna with lukewarm tea connotation for overnight. Next morning add indigo powder along with eggs & curd (for better conditioning), beat it properly so that no lumps r left. Apply this paste to ur dry non oiled hair. Keep for 2-3 hrs or more for deeper tinge. Wash with plain water until d water runs clear. Towel dry. Oil your hair in d night & next morning follow up with ur shampoo & conditioner. & u r all set :)
I myself had tried & superrrr happy with d result. Now gonna do it regularly. :) :)
Try it & plz let me know as I always say "Beauty starts with u" :)

Oil cleansing method

Friends, its already September... which means we have a few time left for d festive seasons... I mean we have Ganesh chaturthi, viswakarma puja, durga puja, dasherra, diwali, bhaidooj...& so many... & how can we forget d marriage season. By d time this festival ends, we will have marriage parties of our friends & relatives. So we should be prepare for all this.
Though d market is filled with whole lot of products that claim to fulfill all your demands. But they contain chemicals too...that tend to do more bad than good.
So lets beautify ourselves at the comfort of home with some natural ingredients that save both our skin & pocket too.
Lets start with cleansing. This is called oil cleansing method. In short OCM. This is a process where we clean d deepest dirt & grime from our face & pores with the help of oil.
Things we need:
Castor & olive oil (oily skinned beauties will take more of castor oil & dry skinned beauties will take more of olive oil. Normal skinned beauties can have them both in equal proportion)
1face towel
1 bowl of warm water.
Procedure:-
1. Take both d oils sufficiently in your palms & rub it to make it warm. Massage your face & neck for 2-3 min. Your face should load with oil. (It will clean even your toughest eye make up. & the oils will clean dirt from your pores)
2. Take a clean face towel. Dip in warm water & squeeze out excess water & place d warm towel over your face till it naturally cools down. Repeat for 2-3 times. ( This will open your pores & will help to clean deeply.)
3. Wipe your face with this wet warm towel concentrating on your eye make up & your black & white heads zone.
4. Splash your face with cold water. This will help to close your pores.
& you r done. You will get gorgeous skin with in no time.

This is a detoxification for your skin. Some of u might see that pimples & acne are popping up. Don't worry & keep patience as it is d part of detoxifying. It will clear all d impurities within your skin. & trust me if you continue with OCM your skin will become flawless. It is not an overnight process so one should be patient enough to c d results. If you follow from today, you will glow this festival. & everyone will say that beauty starts with you.... Enjoy.

Hair mask to control hair fall:-
Soak 2-3 teaspoon of fenugreek (methi) seeds overnight in water. Next day grind d seeds in a blender. Take a fresh aloe leaves, remove the thorns from side & cut into small pieces. Now blend again with the fenugreek seeds. Apply in your hair from root to tips. Keep for at least 1hr & rinse. You can also shampoo your hair by using a mild shampoo.
Incase u don't have aloe vera plant, you can use aloe vera gel available in d market. For eg, patanjali aloe vera gel.
Do this once a week. U'll notice difference from d very first use.

Tips to get rid of frizzy, dull, unmanageable hair:-
Take just a drop of sweet almond oil, rub in your palms, & spread all over your wet towel dry hair. Comb & if possible let your hair dry naturally. This is the best leave-on hair serum I have used so far.

Monsoon is here....& so is damp, wet days, which results in lots of hair fall, dull & lifeless hair & skin. In order to get rid of this try to naturally dry your hair, shampoo every alternative days to avoid any residue build up to ur scalp.
Same thing apply for your skin also. Regularly clean up your skin. Scrubbing twice a week is suggested in Order to get rid of all d dead skin. Try to follow these simple bed time regime:-
1. Remove all d make-up including your eye make up with a good cleansing milk or can use any oil such as almond, olive or even baby oil.
2. Tone up using your favourite alcohol free toner or by simple rose water or any home made toner.
3. Use a oil free moisturizer or a night cream that suits your skin.
4. If u have dark circle or if you are above 30, massage lightly with sweet almond oil in and around your eyes.
5. Comb your hair to get rid of all d tangles & do a simple braid or a pony tail so dat your face remains hair free all d night.
6. Put a lip balm
7. Lastly massage your hand & feet using a heavy moisturizer. You can even use a petroleum jelly or boroline.
Go to sleep & wake up with a new 'you'
