‘Comb to Impress...’

“…my hands would automatically reach for my hair and try to tidy it each time I saw the girls I admired from a distance …”

School Days, the time I realised  that even though I didn’t know why, my hands would automatically reach for my hair and try to tidy it each time I saw the girls I admired from a distance. And this wasn’t a reflex action that was only affecting me but it was noticeable on almost all my gang members as well. As a college statement, the hair games became more of a personal style statement rather than a ‘comb to impress’ statement. The hair efforts to impress were only minimal, as idolising movie stars and pop stars were the in-thing. Enter work life and your hair was only meant to satisfy the ‘Company Rule Book’. Now married, I realise that my hair is only part of my human form and I must ensure that I comb it to have a neat appearance, not only at home but also in society.

  

‘The unwanted foes- Dandruff, Dryness and Damaged Hair!’

“…Shampoos are only one half of that problem solving process. The other half is the good old nourishing hair oil! Yes, the Shampoo and the Hair Oil. Together, they give you the hair of your dreams.…”

But during all these years, for most of us, the hair on our head is always accompanied by unwanted foes- Dandruff, Dryness and Damaged Hair! While some of us have either one or two problems, the rest of us have got them all. And this is why we always look for that ‘All-in-One’ shampoo. A majority of the advice I got during all these years from all sorts of sources, was to use the all-in- one shampoos- anti dandruff shampoo, shampoo for restoring damaged hair, and shiny and silky hair shampoos for dry hair.

And this global shampoo advice worked for few, but only partially, as shampoos only give a temporary and minimal result. So why does it not give a complete desired result? The answer is that, it is not shampoo alone which can solve your hair problems. Shampoos are only one half of that problem solving process. The other half is the good old nourishing hair oil! Yes, the Shampoo and the Hair Oil. Together, they give you the hair of your dreams.

‘Great Hair, Great Moments!’

“…The magic is the oil nutrients that grab hold of the hair roots and repair, build and strengthen the whole strand of hair...…”

In India, this is the secret that was passed by our ancestors and is still being followed today- ‘Don’t forget to use oil for smooth and healthy hair growth’.  This is why some of us still use hair oil even today. Apply hair oil half an hour before your shower. Take the liberty to give yourself a good head massage during that time. Let the oil take its time in drenching every bit of hair on your head and making sure the magic begins working. The magic is the oil nutrients that grab hold of the hair roots and repair, build and strengthen the whole strand of hair. During shower, add a little shampoo, rinse it well, and wash it off. While you can use hair oil on a daily basis, it is advisable to use shampoo only occasionally. Repeat this process for some weeks and you will definitely see the results. Great Hair, Great Moments!!!

‘My Memorable Hair Day’

 

“…Yes, it was this sight that made my happiness spread to my entire body…”

Great hair moments are commonly experienced during your first dates, at parties and fashion shows. But I think in my life, there was one extra special moment where I felt this oil and shampoo nourishment made my hair-day. And this ‘wow’ moment was when I went to hospital to see my wife cradling our first-born in her hands. Yes, while it was this sight that made my happiness spread to my entire body, I also believe that at that time the hair-work had also added a tiny little bit of happiness, making my great day memorable forever!
