May 201512
Dear Reader,
Summer is here in full swing; both dresses
and tresses are changing their tune. This season
is all about getting that summer glow and not
staying low. With the Spring/Summer trends
now firmly in place, we are confident of what
works this year and are sharing every bit of the
information with you, our loyal readers!
This month, the world celebrates Mother’s
Day and we have a big plus for young mothers
this issue. Motherhood is not only a
transformative experience for the mind but
also for the body. Skin as well as hair experience fluctuations and changes and we
spoke to our experts to help you sail through them. Beauty doyen Shahnaz
Husain has shared her time-tested tips and knowledge for all young mothers who
are dealing with hair changes. Meanwhile, our expert Dr. Varun Katyal has skin
care for young mothers covered with his ‘For a Mommy Makeover’ feature. And
if you are one of those wondering what to gift that special woman on this day,
our ‘To mom, with love’ feature will solve all your gifting quandaries in a jiffy.
Summer hair, skincare and make-up are not to be trifled with, for this is when
you need to let your hair down in style. With leisure on your hands, our ‘Summer
Hairspiration’ feature will help you channel your inner diva this summer. And to
keep your make-up intact even in the heat, our ‘Make-up meltdown’ article will
leave you fearless and flawless. As a first, we are sharing a unique ‘DIY
Conditioners’ feature that the more experimental of you can try, while our ‘Heat
it up’ feature will simplify your hairstyling routine.
We were also presented with not one but two event platforms where TIGI and
Sebastian Professionals redefined hairstyling and presented unique looks that are
sharing and decoding for the brave heart amongst you. A loyal fan speaks her
heart this month and we hope those of you who concur can share your own
thoughts with us. Former Miss India International, Jhataleka Malhotra is our
summer cover girl and she has shared her hair and beauty secrets for you too.
For the guys, we have the male grooming feature that decodes your personality
according your beard preferences.
Here’s wishing you the perfect summer then. Happy reading!

TANNED NO MORE
I have always adored . The article ‘Damn that Tan’ by

between sun burn and sun tan. It also helped me treat my
sun burnt skin with the simple home remedies provided.
You have no idea how how much your tips help all those
who read the
magazine. I
will eternally
be grateful
to this article
and will
definitely
share this
with my

UNSPOKEN VOWS
I loved the ‘Vow to Wow’ article so much. It
made me realize how much my hair means to me
and I have decided to abide by each and every
promise stated there. It also made me realize
how much I can do with my hair and and how I
can keep it healthy. I hope that you write many
more wonderful tips and tricks in the future
and make us all happy. I will recommend this
magazine to all my friends.Thank you so much
for a publishing a wonderful article like this.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
SUN BURN AND SUN TAN
Though there is no standard
explanation for this, generally
speaking a sun burn is the skin’s
reaction to short term exposure to
the harsh UV rays of the sun. It occurs
as painful or sore red patch/ patches
on sun-exposed areas and can even
develop blisters. A sun tan on the
other hand, is a painless darkening of
skin post sun exposure. Sun burn is
usually seen in fairer individuals while
a sun tan is usually seen in darker
individuals; however this may not
always be true.
A tan is our skin’s attempt to prevent
UV rays from doing any further
damage to the sensitive cells in our
epidermis. However, it does not help
protect our skin from getting sunburn
in the future. While all suntans fade
over time, here are few tips that you
can follow under supervision of a
dermatologist to speed up the fading
of your sun tan.
skin care
Are the thoughts of a bad tan shadowing your fun summer itinerary? DR. VARUN
KATYAL is here to help you prevent and get rid of that awful sun tan.
S
ummer time is the time to go out for vacations and picnics.
But, as we all know, too much sun exposure can be a bad
thing and especially due to skin tan. A day at the beach, hours
spent swimming, not using a sunscreen regularly or not using
it properly – any of these may cause a skin tan you don’t
want. Contrary to popular belief, a tan is not “healthy.” A tan
is a sign of skin damage. When exposed to the sun’s UV rays, our skin’s
melanocytes produce melanin, the dark pigment that creates the tan.

from the heart
VowtoWowYour hair has made a serious
commitment to make you
look gorgeous and it’s time
you return the favour! We’ve
compiled a list of promises,
keeping in mind the teachings
of the wise hair gurus, which
you must make to your
locks, staying true to them in
sickness and in health.
Text Hena Desai
I will make my peace with
my natural hair
1Wavy, straight, curly, thin or thick-
your hair is great in its natural form
and you must learn to love it! If you
accept your hair as it is, with all its
pluses and minuses, you will be able
to treat it with the right products and
give it the kind of care it actually
needs. You will look and feel better
about yourself and your hair, trust us.
I will find ‘the one’ (we mean
the perfect hairstylist of course)
5
partner at times, right? If you have a stylist
you visit regularly, they will know what hair
type they are working with, will already know
what your preferences are along with know
what suits you and what doesn’t. The end
result will turn out to be more fabulous so
understands your haircare needs and cling
onto him/her dearly!
When there are so many great hair
trends out there, why be afraid to
experiment? Different styles, colours
and cuts- try them all! Have faith in
your stylist and give your locks a new
look every now and then. Don’t be
too afraid to go wrong; if a particular
colour ends up looking too drastic
you can always have it dyed back
and if a cut is too short, it will always
grow back!
I will not be afraid to
experiment
2 Just like how it impacts everything else in
your body, what you eat has a great effect
on your hair as well. Intake of the right kinds
of food can boost hair growth and repair hair
and spinach are known to be good for hair so
include them in your diet. Also, taking iron
and vitamin supplements (under the
guidance of a dermatologist) will help
improve the health of your locks, resulting in
a glossy, voluminous look.
I will nourish my hair with
healthy food
6
Let us put it this way: you are slowly
killing your hair by using styling tools
Each time you use a hair straightner,
curler or even a blow-dryer, make sure
you work in a heat protectant serum
work towards preventing dry,
damaged and brittle hair. So if you
want your hair to retain its health and
shine even after styling, don’t skimp
out on using a protectant.
I will not style without
using serum
3
Getting regular trims is an absolute
must if you want those darned
split-ends to stay away. Trimming will
keep your haircut looking fresh and
the ends of hair looking healthy. It
also stops breakage of hair, thus
preventing hair thinning towards the
bottom. Don’t forget to set reminders
to book an appointment with your
stylist every three-four months.
I will trim my way to
healthy hair
4 not dress them up a little? Choose from
hairbands to embellished pins to funky hair
ties or barrettes to dress up your hair! You
can try creating simple hairstyles such as
braids, messy buns, etc and accessorise them
with cute hair baubles. There are so many fun
options to choose from; you’ll be glad you
tried them!
I will accessorise

This one is an oldie but a goodie. We’ve all
heard our mothers and grandmothers
advising us to oil our hair religiously and they
were not wrong in telling us to do so. Oiling
has proven to be a great way to strengthen
the roots, reverse dryness and to add an
enviable sheen to your hair. There are a
variety of oils that you may choose from
depending on your hair type- olive, coconut,
almond, jojoba, etc. Simply massage the oil
to your hair and leave it on for 20-30 minutes
I will follow mum’s advice (for
once) and oil my hair
7
TRENDY GEEK
is the best magazine ever! I love all the articles
that are published here but the one article that
really caught my eye was ‘Beauty Specs.’ I always
felt ugly whenever I wore my spectacles. But after
reading this article I understood which frames are
suitable for my face and how my eyes can still
stand out. Please keep publishing more articles
like this in the future.

Q
DR. APOORVA SHAH and
DR. SONAL SHAH, India’s
first certified trichologists,
give you all the haircare
advice you need.
QWhat measures do I take to
combat the greying process?
~ Arti
A A faulty diet and stress are the
two primary causes while deficiency
of B vitamins, iron, copper and iodine
in the daily diet worsens it.Treatment
for premature greying is preventive
with a regular healthy diet, proper
hair and scalp hygiene and de-
stressing activities are helpful along
with intake of L-tyrosine. Consult a
trichologist to know the cause and
treatment accordingly.
QMy daughter seems to have
caught a lice infestation. Is there
a permanent and effective method to
keep these issues at bay?
~ Vedika
A To keep lice at bay and prevent
subsequent complications like cross
infections, boils and pustules,
maintaining a regular hygiene routine
is important. Nits or lice eggs need to
be removed manually. Keep the scalp
healthy and clean, oil hair thrice a
week and wash off with shampoo as
unclean hair causes clogged pores
and lice. Cut the nails of the child if
he or she has lice since it may lead to

infections due to scratching. Keep
combs, pillows and towels of the
affected child separate and wash
them as many times as possible.
QI’ve recently learnt that my son
has alopecia areata. What do
you recommend?
~ Shweta
A The main cause is physical or
mental stress, post vaccination, lice
or during viral illnesses.
Treatment for alopecia areata
attempts to reduce the white blood
cells associated with the problem. If
this can be done, the hair will regrow.
Trichologists often recommend oral
intake of L-tyrosine, an amino acid
that decreases the neuropeptides in
the skin. This in turn reduces auto-
inflammation. This condition needs to
be diagnosed and treated by a
trichologist only.
QI have flaky dandruff that refuses to
come off unless I scratch it out.
Please recommend a solution.
~ Anuj
A Wash hair daily with scalp
cleanser and alternately with an
anti-dandruff shampoo. Regular
oiling and cleaning of hair with a mild
formulation helps. Use some lemon in
the last rinse after a shampoo as it
keeps dandruff at bay.
HairRepairYour route to perfect hair every day.
I had straightened my hair a few months back. The
texture of my normal growth is completely different
which makes it look ugly and fake. How do I deal
with this transition? ~ Karina
A Straightening is an extremely tedious and
harsh process which applies tremendous heat to
convert the protein cystine (which makes up hair)
into cysteine and then manipulates the hair into a
certain look. Do ensure internal nourishment to the hair shafts by eating a
balanced diet, regular oiling and regular tricho-scalp treatment and check
the strength of your hair by visiting your nearest trichologist. The emphasis
should be on conditioning. So make sure you end the wash cycle with an
intensive conditioner. Increase the intake of water, especially coconut water.

pG
one are the days when you’d
run your fingers through your
hair and play it like a soulful
harp. Your tresses have gotten a bit
too fussy this season with the irregular
heat and humidity. We’re here to guide
you through these distressing times
in a stylish manner. There is a stigma
associated with using too many heating
tools on your hair but then we’ve all
known at least someone who styles
their hair so very frequently without any
traces of damage. Although, we don’t
encourage this behaviour, we’ve just
observed that many have figured out a
way to do it right and we shan’t stand
the fact that you aren’t one of them. So
behold the techniques that didn’t come
with the manual.
Limit your exposure: Jumping
out of the shower and falling under the
dryer is the worst thing you could do to
yourself. Either wrap your head in a towel
turban or air dry about 80% of your hair
and then blow-dry to style it. Never use a
hair straightener on wet strands.
May 201528

Make smart sections: You don’t
have to numb your arms by dividing
your strands into a million sections;
just four are enough. Clip the rest up
while you’re working on one. Left,
right, front and back; the back of the
head can be divided into two but
that’s about it.
Test the air blast: Your scalp
is sensitive as it has always been
extremely protected. Feel the heat
on the back of your hand before
exposing it to your hair for calculated
risks are comparatively safer.
Always use heat protectants
before styling: While heat
protectant serums prevent your
hair from damage caused by hot
styling tools, it is important to choose
products that do not contain alcohol-
based ingredients. The alcohol
content will only make your hair dry,
which is the exact opposite of how
a protecting serum is supposed to
function.
chic zone
Stroke the right way: Always
maintain more than eight inches
distance between the nozzle of
the dryer and your hair. While
straightening, always start from the
roots and iron your way slowly to the
tips; never start mid-way as the lack
of consistency will lead to breakage.
Generously invest about two to three
seconds per strand.
Clean your wand: Make
sure you regularly clean your
magical equipment for an optimal
performance. Dust the back of your
dryer with a tooth brush and you
could use baby wipes for your hair
straighter among other options.

journey through the

bringing you her secrets
to staying jaw-dropping
gorgeous at all times!
Little
Tell us a little about your
exhilarating Miss India
International 2014 journey.
I have been asked this question a
number of times and I never get
tired of answering it; being crowned
Miss India is something I will cherish
forever. It was a journey filled with
surprises! At 19, when most of us are
busy studying or going to college, I
was given this huge responsibility of
representing India.

tête-à-tête
What’s does Jhataleka Malhotra’s
hair care ritual consist of?
Looking after your hair is extremely
important. Everyone has different
hair types, varying in length, texture
and thickness. For me, conditioning is
the most important aspect. I stick to
natural means that involve using curd
and eggs— they work wonders!
What is the one hairstyle that we
are most likely to spot you in?
I love beach waves— love the raw
texture and it is totally my thing!
What is your idea of pampering
yourself?
I am a firm believer of retail therapy!
I love to shop and that is only way in
which I truly indulge!
What’s your mantra to deal with
a bad hair day?
I like to tie my hair in a braid or a high
ponytail. One quick fix would be to
use some curling mousse and tie your
hair in a braid or bun— when you open
them you will have beautiful waves! All
you need to do then is just use a spray
to set it in place.
What are your thoughts on short
hairstyles like the undercut and
bobs that are all the rage these
days? How likely are you to sport
them?
I think they look super cool and edgy! I
surely want to try them someday.
Do share a message for your
loyal fans and readers.
I want to thank you all for the love and
support that you have showered me
with last year! It means a lot to me and
gives me immense encouragement to
keep working harder and doing better.

How has life changed post this pagent?
This is something that has helped me grow as an individual, made me
independent and invoked a sense of understanding, which otherwise
would have developed much later.
Do you think you are under a certain amount of pressure to
look perfect all the time? How do you deal with it?
I don’t treat it as pressure— to me it’s more like a process where
you’re constantly being introduced to different shades of your own
personality. Someone told me long ago that happiness is the key to
looking perfect all the time. I think it’s how you feel about yourself
and how happy and confident you are about the way you carry
yourself that makes you look your best. Moreover beauty lies in
imperfection; we shouldn’t lose our individuality.
Do share your fitness secret with our readers.
My fitness regime is not complicated at all! I do take breaks in the
middle, but I give all credit to ATS Workouts (high altitude training)
and Pilates to keep me in shape. Besides this, it is extremely
important to eat healthy and in the right quantities.

Sebastian Gallery Jam 2014, Wella
Professionals came back with their event for
the top Sebastian stylists from across the

trends for the Sebastian stylists, bringing them up-to-
speed with the hottest hair trends. This session worked
out to be an inspirational one, helping the stylists push
their creative boundaries and helping them upgrade their
skills. “I have been associated with Sebastian Professional
for more than 20 years now. Sebastian’s Gallery Jam
session is truly unique in this sector and highly appreciated
by hairstylists too. It was an absolute pleasure to work

Sebastian Design Artist was truly exhilarated at having had
an opportunity to work with Diva Poulos. He said, “I was
looking forward to working with Diva in India. I have had a
few opportunities of working and learning from her on an
international stage, but this was totally different. Having
her in India and preparing looks with her especially for the
Indian market to inspire the stylists here was truly amazing.
Sharing stage with her was an incredible experience, I
learnt a lot from her.”
The Sebastian Gallery Jam 2015 gave the Sebastian stylists
hands-on experience in witnessing and creating hair trends
that are innovative yet capture the essence of Sebastian
Professional in the looks and the techniques used. This
session was a true wonderland for any stylist- one where
creativity flowed no holds barred, where stylists were
encouraged to have a futuristic vision in hairdressing and
were given a platform to showcase their individuality for

If Tay Tay does it, you HAVE to
do it too! This style may look
intimidating but trust us, it isn’t
so! Divide your hair into two
sections and comb through.
Make two braids in your hair
and use some hairspray or
styling gel to hold the braids in
place. Hold one plait upwards,
pulling it across as you would
do with a hairband and fix it
on the side using bobby pins.
Pull the other braid over to
the opposite side and repeat
the process. Once pinned, the
braids should look like a plaited
hairband on your hair. If you
have bangs, iron them for a
sleek appearance like Taylor’s.
Finish off with hairspray to
make sure that the style lasts
you through the day, with no
need of constant fixing!

PONYTAIL
An age-old favourite, Mila Kunis shows
us how ponytails, when done right, can
be your best bet as a summer hairdo.
A messy ponytail, a sleek one, a high
or a low— there is a ponytail variant
for absolutely any occasion! For this
sophisticated style, create a centre-
parting in your hair and backcomb the
crown section to give it a teased look.
Use some hairspray onto this teased
section to hold it in place before moving
on. Once the crown is set, pull your hair
back into a high ponytail and secure
it with a hair-tie. Use a strand of hair
from underneath the ponytail and wrap
it around the hair-tie so as to cover
it, adding that touch of sophistication
to the look. This style will take you
effortlessly from your office to a to a
late-night party so show some love to
the versatile ponytail for the summer!

KATY PERRY’S
FUN LOB
If you’re not ready for a pixie or any
drastically short cut just yet, try a lob
(long bob) instead! This will give you a
feminine yet cool look, adding a fresh
twist to your look at the same time.
Styling a lob isn’t a challenge either;
you can leave it unstyled and wavy,
straighten it or curl it, depending on
your mood! To emulate Katy’s famous
look, work a heat protectant serum
through your hair and blow-dry. Divide
your hair into small sections and using
a curling wand, curl each section.
Comb through your curled hair with
your fingers, breaking the curls apart
to create waves. Once you’ve covered
all your hair, spritz some hairspray on
to set the curls and you’ll be good to
go! If you’re daring enough, colour
your hair in a bold shade as hers and
we assure you that all eyes will be on
you as you step out!

KNOT BUN
When all else fails, trust the top knot
bun to be your trusted saviour! Neat and
hassle-free, this hairstyle will keep the
hair off your face as you jet-set through

hair using a paddle brush till completely
dry, applying a thickening serum in your
hair as you proceed. Once dry, tie your
hair in a high ponytail and secure it with a
hair-tie. Twist and pull your hair into a bun,
knotting it at the top of your head. Once
you’re satisfied with the look of the bun,
secure it using bobby pins. Tame flyaways

side-swept bangs or even go in for a top

using a hair iron. For the rest of your hair,
simply blow-dry it lightly and run some
styling gel or paste through your hair using

SHEFALI SAMDRIA speaks about
the three trending hairstyles
created by Lakmé Salon that you
MUST try this year!
SCULPTED TO
PERFECTION
L
akmé’s trend mantra for 2015 has been
officially launched as ‘Sculpt’. In the same
vein, Lakmé Salon further consolidated
this trend at the fashion week with
sculpted hairstyles and make-up that were
both avant-garde and contemporary at the same
time. Think Barcelona with its alluring architecture,
natural construction stones, twisted iron sculptures
and organic like shapes and you will be drawn
to these styles much like we were. Inspired by
contemporary architecture, ‘Sculpt’- a versatile trend,
works seamlessly across hair and make-up, and is
available at Lakmé Salons across the country.

DOUBLE HAT CHIGNON
The chignon has travelled
a long way from ancient
Greece where it first added
glamour to Athenian women.
Traditionally, the chignon was
a smallish bun at the nape of
the neck. Lakmé salon has
created its own dramatic
version of this classic low-key
style, inspired by the double
domes commonly seen in
Barcelona. Voluminous hair
sleekly styled in an up-do
that resembles a faux hat,
this style adds oodles of
oomph when needed. With a
sculpted saree gown, this can
even take you back to ancient
times as you make a queenly
entrance at soirees!
MARSALA STAIRS
The colour of the year deserves
its own dedicated style and this
geometrical piece of art is not for
the faint-hearted! The cascading
hair with abrupt yet sculpted layers
will add a note of Renaissance
modernism to any personality
irrespective of clothing or occasion.
Straightened or crimped, hair is
elevated to a statement rather than
an afterthought and the colour
takes the ‘Sculpt’ philosophy to a
new stratosphere!

CHAMPAGNE SHIMMER
Gold is no more an ornament
but a sentiment. Women
have used gold powder
and pigments for make-
up for a while now and
this style counts on subtly
shimmering pigments. With
this look, bold, precise and
high-definition is back in
vogue, and the sculpt look
if applied right, can deliver
this to perfection. Not only
does it accentuate dominant
features like high cheekbones
and striking eyes, it defines
and highlights sharper facial
features, thereby reinstating
make-up as an art form.
Smooth
Transition
O
f the multiple things that have
teamed up to make our lives a little
more better and convenient, the
shampoo and conditioner combo is
arguably the best. Although, the conditioner is
fairly new and doesn’t really get enough credit,
it’s a shame to not acknowledge its importance
especially when you’re recovering from all the
chemicals you splashed over yourself!
Colouring, rebonding and smoothening are
scribbled eloquently on the list of endless
attempts for making your tresses manageable,
vibrant and trendy. They all tend to suck the
life out of your hair if you fail to maintain a
nourishing routine. That is reflected on the
health of the new batch of hair that peeps
out the roots. We agree that dealing with the
transitioning process is the worst phase ever.
Also, it’s always wise to choose to wait for
your natural hair to completely grow
back rather than risking a dramatic
chopped off look. Since, shampooing
your hair everyday can adversely
damage your hair; condition even
without washing, it is a viable option
to escape dull hair.
One of the biggest challenges is to
prevent breakage; the most brittle
zone is where the fresh growth
meets the chemically treated hair.
Berina’s Protein Conditioner is
specially enriched with goodness of
proteins that not only nourishes hair
and refurbishes dead locks but also
repairs and restores them completely.
The oil-free formulation acts as a
moisturizer and makes hair silky
smooth. The protein in the conditioner
gets easily absorbed by hair, thereby
nurturing them completely. Regularly
use this innovative hair mask to make
your tresses dramatically stronger,
healthier, smooth and shiny!

growth but failing miserably? POOJA

May 201548
A
woman’s body goes through multiple physiological, hormonal
and glandular changes during and after pregnancy. The hormonal
activity usually benefits the hair during pregnancy, because of
higher estrogen levels. Many women recollect that their hair
looked thicker and shinier during this time. Actually, hair normally
grows in three phases: growth, resting and shedding. But, during pregnancy,
due to higher estrogen levels, the growth and resting phases become longer

vitamin and mineral supplements also improves the look of the hair. Of course,
stress can trigger off hair problems and hair loss.
A
woman’s body goes through multiple physiological, hormonal
and glandular changes during and after pregnancy. The hormonal
activity usually benefits the hair during pregnancy, because of
higher estrogen levels. Many women recollect that their hair
looked thicker and shinier during this time. Actually, hair normally
grows in three phases: growth, resting and shedding. But, during pregnancy,
due to higher estrogen levels, the growth and resting phases become longer
and the hair falls less. It also looks healthy and thick. Good nutrition, along with
vitamin and mineral supplements also improves the look of the hair. Of course,
stress can trigger off hair problems and hair loss.

hair care
Once or twice a week, heat pure
coconut oil or olive oil and apply on
the hair. Do a hot towel wrap for five
minutes and repeat four times. This
helps the hair and scalp absorb the
oil better.
Go for timely hair cuts and head
massages. I feel that it is better to avoid
chemical dyes and colourants during
pregnancy. Go for natural hair colour,
like henna, or those that contain natural
colourants like indigo, catechu and
henna. They give the hair a blackish
brown colour.
Nutrition is a very important factor for
healthy hair, especially during and after
pregnancy, as well as lactation. The
hair is actually fed by the nutrients in
the blood stream. I would recommend
taking a small bowl of sprouts daily.
Sprouts contain amino acids, which
are very beneficial to the hair. Include
fresh fruits, raw salads, leafy green
vegetables, whole grains, curd and
adequate protein in the diet. Consult
your doctor about it. Along with a
nutritious diet, daily exercise, relaxation,
adequate sleep and a healthy lifestyle
are required for healthy hair growth.
TRY THESE SIMPLE RECIPES
AT HOME:
Dandruff often triggers hair loss.
Apply two tablespoons apple cider
vinegar before shampoo. After
shampoo, add two tablespoons
vinegar to a mug of water and use
it as a last rinse. Once a week, heat
olive oil and apply on the scalp with
a light massage. Leave on overnight.
Next morning, apply the juice of a
lemon on the scalp and wash the
hair after ten minutes as usual.
Green tea can also be used as a hair
rinse after shampoo. Add the juice
of a lemon to four cups of green
tea and use it as a last rinse after
shampoo. Like Coconut Oil, but
Coconut milk is also said to promote
hair growth too. It also softens the
hair. Mix it with lemon juice and
apply on the hair. Wash the hair
with plain lukewarm water after ten
minutes. Follow this treatment twice
a week and you will find your hair is
smoother and healthier.
Egg is one of the most versatile
ingredients. It contains silicon,
sulphur and fatty acids that help
to nourish the hair and promote
growth. It also contains Biotin, a
vitamin that helps hair growth. Beat
an egg with a little milk to form a
thickish consistency and apply it on
the scalp and hair. After half an hour,
rinse the hair well with water, after
adding some eau-de-cologne. It is
said that onion juice can be applied
on the scalp to help hair growth
because onions contain sulphur.
Healthy hair is not really difficult to
achieve. What one needs is awareness
of the kind of treatment it requires.
I also believe that nature is not only
an expert chemist, but also the best
cosmetologist.
During pregnancy, due to higher estrogen
levels, the growth and resting phases become
longer and the hair falls less. It also looks
healthy and thick

Regular hair care during pregnancy
should include shampooing the
hair, two to three times a week
depending on the season and also
on the hair type. For eg. oily hair
needs to be shampooed frequently,
especially during humid weather.
Allow the hair to dry naturally as
often as you can and avoid tying
the hair back tightly. Habitual
tying of the hair tightly can cause
enough trauma to the roots,
leading to hair loss. It can often be
the cause of hair loss at the hairline.

I
t was a pleasant surprise
to walk into a salon
on a random day and
discovering how a
salon owner regards the
magazine. Gazala Salim
Panjwani is a like any other
beauty professional who
strives everyday to take her
business to a new level. She
started her salon Zeenia in
2004 in the neighbourhood
of Bandra. Like many
female beauticians, this was
a career switch for her and
an exhilarating experience
as an entrepreneur. Gazala
is not just a salon reader
of our magazine, she
also proudly displays our
previous issues on the walls
of her salon and has this
to say…

The journey as a salon entrepreneur
It has been the most fulfilling experience of my life!
The evolution of her customers
From when I started, the average customer today is so
much more beauty conscious. Grooming is a priority
with them today and they consider it an important
aspect of their lives.
The magazine
It’s a boon for professionals like me; I depend on it to
update myself about new product releases, knowledge
upgradation and ideas on how I can be a better service
provider. Not only that, my customers also refer to the
magazine when it comes to services and hairstyles they
want to try.

This is a great industry to be in, not only is the business
creatively fulfilling, it’s also booming right now and with

Anyone can make it work
Yes, anyone! Long, short, wavy, fine or thickly-tressed
ladies can pull it off! Think of the trend as the sleekest,
healthiest version of your own hair.
And for curly girlies…
This look totally works for curls too, but if you want to
smooth them out, try applying a smoothing balm on
freshly-washed, damp hair before blow-drying. Blow-dry
your hair straight with a paddle brush for the sleekest
finish (if you dry small enough sections at a time, you
shouldn’t need to break out the straighteners).
It cuts out unnecessary products
For the most part, all you’ll need is the following:
• MOISTURISING SHAMPOO/CONDITIONER DUO
– This will help to hydrate your hair, ensuring it’ll
be flyaway-free!
• TAIL COMB – For the precise side-parting.
• SMOOTHING BALM – To prep damp hair for
straightening.
• STRAIGHTENERS/HAIRDRYER – Whichever
method of straightening you prefer.
• SHINE SPRAY – Wave bye-bye to crisp finishing
sprays – the only thing you’ll need to complete
your look is a subtle glisten for the ultimate in
fuss-free, glossy locks.
No time? No problem!
You can make this look last until the next time you wash
your hair! At night, simply twist into a low bun and pin
in place, then come morning, undo and brush through.
You’ll be left with an oh-so-subtle natural wave.
The only thing is…
There’s nowhere to hide! Just like the “no make-up”
trend, this look really does expose flaws, so you need
to keep your mane in tip-top condition. That means
regular trims, deep-conditioning treatments and
moisture masks!

hair-maresLike the idea of a fresh new mane but unsure of the outcome?

ISTOCK
PROBLEM:
I’m scared of wearing my hair up
SOLUTION:
It’s all about finding
the right ponytail to
suit your face shape
and there will be no
need to hide behind
your hair. Practice
wearing your
ponytail at different
heights – from high
on the crown to low
at the nape. High
ponytails will look
great on round face
shapes, while those
with square faces
should frame their
look with a few
tendrils.
PROBLEM:
I’m scared to dye my hair for the first time
SOLUTION:
Find out what shades would
suit your natural skin tone
and ask your stylist for their
advice before picking one.
Don’t too stray too far from
your natural shade so you
can still transform your look
without being too drastic. If
you don’t want to commit,
try an ombré style, as it is
easy to grow out and you
can cut off your ends when
you’re bored with it.

PROBLEM:
I want a pixie cut, but I’m scared of
the chop
SOLUTION:
Pixie cuts are great for an
edgy look and really show
off those cheekbones, but
make sure you know your
face shape before visiting
the salon. Oval-shaped
faces can pull off nearly
any style of pixie cut,
but heart-shaped ladies
should aim to add height
at the crown to elongate
their features.
SavvyHair–savvyhair.
co.uk
PROBLEM:
My style falls flat in an hour and I can never
keep the volume!
SOLUTION:
Try not to use too much
conditioner, as that can weigh
the hair down and make it
fall flat after styling. Instead,
when your hair is towel-dry,
get plenty of mousse on the
crown of your hair, which
will uplift roots. Applying a
root-boosting powder and
washing with a volumising
shampoo/conditioner will
also work wonders.
PROBLEM:
My hair gets
greasy too quickly
after washing
SOLUTION:
Try to wash your hair
every other day to
better regulate sebum
production and stock
up on the wonder that
is dry shampoo. Pop a
can in your handbag
and spray and massage
in when you need those
root touch-ups during
the day.
PROBLEM:
I struggle to style
my short hair
SOLUTION:
Invest in some good quality
hair extensions, clip-ins
and styling products like
moulding pastes and waxes.
Have fun experimenting
with lots of different
textures and styles. You can
also update your look with
semi permanent colours
and hair chalks for a blast of
creative colour.
PROBLEM:
SOLUTION:
Don’t try too hard with your
updos. Keep things relaxed
by incorporating plaits into
your look. There are plenty
of how-to videos online that
can teach you how to do
Dutch, French and fishtail
plaits. Try incorporating
these into your standard
updo – they are set to be
among the biggest catwalk
trends in 2015.
PROBLEM:
Girly accessories make me look silly
SOLUTION:
Keep things all grown up by making your look effortless but
edgy – if you’re wearing a glittery hair band then put your
hair in a loose, messy bun and keep your eye make-up dark.
PROBLEM:
SOLUTION:
Test the
water with a
good quality
clip-in fringe
before taking
the plunge!
PROBLEM:
I’m a slave to my straighteners
SOLUTION:
As tough as it is, step away from the irons – they are
extremely damaging to the hair and can cause split
ends. As an alternative, wash your hair with straightening
shampoo and conditioner, then, after towel-drying your
hair, apply some argan oil and plait your hair or put it up
into large rollers before sleeping with them in overnight.
Voilà! Gorgeous curls or waves without the heat damage!

Babbling
Beards
I
t’s quite a daunting task to weigh the intensely
contradicting preferences in choosing what
style of beard to sport. Considering the options,
it’s a shame to not have experimented with the
second most masculine thing you have to offer.
Although, the only king in the deck of cards without
any facial hair is of Hearts, it shouldn’t convince you
otherwise. You could probably give it a shot to get
your fist bumped by your men and swooned over
by your women. This is the perfect season for you
as summer speeds up the growing process and
also protects you from tanning, making it easier
for you to achieve the ultimate symbol of strength,
manliness, self-esteem and status.
A man with a beard has an immediate,
visceral impact. POOJA RAISINGHANI
sheds some light on the general
perceptions for you to choose your
look this summer!
“Well, I have better things
to do in life. I could add
you to that list.”
STUBBLE
The rugged stubble can be misleading
in several fun ways. It speaks volume
about a man who cares to keep up
with the current trends. Contrary to
popular belief, the reckless look is
extremely high maintenance for it
requires timely grooming and styling
sessions. But, you’ll be out there
making them wonder what you’ve
been up to. You were probably busy
cracking that major deal or practicing
for the soccer finals. Lightly scratch
your beard when you spot them
looking at you as though in deep
thought, that’ll do the trick.

You’re sure to dominate her
entire existence and she’ll be
more than happy to jump
onto this ride.
male grooming
“Hey, I’m actually a really nice
guy. Let’s cuddle! No? Okay then,
brace yourself for some poetry. “
“Feel my masculinity
from afar. Mess with
me and I’ll have my men
take care of you. “
SOUL PATCH+GOATEE
Having gotten bullied your entire teenage
life, these patches of hair finally shoved
those disturbing encounters in a dark alley,
right where they belong. If only you could
keep that desperate adolescent version of
you from making every situation awkward.
An annoying know-it-all who’ll criticise the
wine till its last drop to a mushy sitcom dude
who believes in romanticizing everything;
basically anything that increases the
probability of getting in her pants will sum
up a man who ‘chooses’ to sport this look.
CHIN STRAP BEARD
You live in the gym, juggling your
women while grooving to the beats
of EDM. Then subtly flex your biceps
to exhibit your abstract tattoo for
some more attention; attention
which you totally deserve. Do they
have any idea how long it takes
you to shape that perfect strap?
You’re sure to dominate her entire
existence and she’ll be more than
happy to jump into this ride.
May 2015 73
May 201574
FULLY GROWN BEARD
A glance from the corner of the eye, that’s all it
would take for you to slice their soul into pieces
and you can very well put it back together in
the same moment. But by then, you would have
figured them out. Struggled your way through
life, you’ve survived it all but nothing and no one
was ever worth the effort. You’ve travelled far
and wide, sold the Harley for the woman who
was once enchanted by it. But that’s not the story
your children would hear.
“You don’t deserve my
attention. Now if you
excuse me, I have to go
get back to my woman.”
“You look better
than my axe. Do you
like wood too?”
MUTTON CHOPS
The self proclaimed macho creature of the forest,
you can talk about your adventures all day.
Whether it’s slaughtering a random goat for dinner
or a car crash you nearly escaped, your extreme
stories can get so amusing that they question the
authenticity. Just let them enjoy the old country
music playing while you carry out your day to day
manly chores. Well, that pretty much sums up your
extravagant dare devil persona.
So, have you taken your pick? Or are you still
pondering over the options whilst stroking
your existing beard. We couldn’t agree more,
it’s a massive decision as it would instantly add
five years to your look but effectively seal the
younger version of your skin as well. The UV rays
that it blocks, reduces the chances of cancer. So
if not for sex appeal, grow it for science at least!

what’s hot in the world of
beauty this month!
The brand
MeGlow
Star buy – Premium
Fairness Cream
Come summer and every woman wants to flaunt that
glowing, flawless skin. When on vacation, your skin
needs that extra care to protect it from the ravages
of travel. So while you are indulging in vacation fun,
trust this revolutionary product from MeGlow to keep
your skin glowing . Its SPF 15 protects you from sun
damage while Vitamins A and E help perfect your skin
by addressing the lost glow; it also treats dark spots,
fine lines, blemishes and sun spots. Vitamin C boosts
production of collagen and gives firmness to your skin,
in addition to protecting skin against discoloration.
The aloe vera in this cream soothes the skin after sun
exposure to prevent tanning. The botanicals in the
formula penetrate deep within the skin and target
damaged surface, diminishes dark patches, blemishes,
sun spots and reveals an even toned complexion. The
natural ingredients work at the upper and the levels
beneath to remove any signs of skin damage and reveal
a clear, bright and well moisturised skin while the
luminising botanicals add an instant radiance. On those
warm summer days when you feel conflicted between
your fairness cream and sunscreen, we insist you try this

S.O.Ssave our skins!
I have a combination of dry and oily skin. How
can I take care of it in the summer to make
sure it doesn’t get too dry or too oily?
– Nadia
A Dry skin tends to get normal and oily skin tends
to get too oily in summers. Since you possess a
combination skin-type, your T-zone will get more
oily while the rest will stay normal. You ought to use
specific products for each zone. While washing your
face, use a deep-pore cleanser on your T-zone but mix it with water while
applying it on your cheeks and jaw area. Dab a tea-tree astringent and
apply a gel-based moisturizer on your entire face. Make sure you protect
your skin with a gel-based sunscreen. Be sure to use summer-specific
make-up products to bid adieu to any sheen on your face.
Q QYears of waxing and other
forms of hair removal have
left my underarms dark and
patchy. Is there any way to
effectively reverse this?
–Ananya
A Waxing can never cause dark
underarms. The reason for your woes
seem to be the other measures you
must have gone through like hair
removal creams and razors. To deal
with it, you may use this effective
scrub-cum-pack: add two tbsps lemon
juice with three tbsps oats, three tbsps
sandalwood powder & two tbsps
grated potato to form a paste. Now,
gently scrub your underarms using it.
Wash off and repeat regularly to notice
steady effects of this remedy. Ditch
your deodorants for some time as it will
only hamper the brightening process.
You may also go for bleach and peel
treatment sittings at a professional
salon but make sure to maintain an
adequate interval between sittings. In
IPL is the solution for you. Intensed
Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy is the best
way to permanently reduce unwanted
hair. This revolutionary, Italian
technology is the safest and effective
measure for hair-removal that has no
side effects.
QMy feet are in a terrible
shape-cracked and tanned. Is
there a foot care routine that I
can follow to combat this?
– Isha
A Your feet clearly exhibit the care
you provide to them. Keep them clean
and well-moisturised— just as you
do for your face. For this, scrub your
feet using a pumice stone on a daily
basis while bathing and massage them
with a rich moisturizer after. Prepare
a mixture of glycerin, papaya pulp,
honey and lemon juice in equal parts
and apply it daily to get brighter and
smoother feet. You may use lemon
pieces with sugar to scrub you feet.
While the sugar takes all the dead skin
away, the lemon extract will brighten
pedicure sessions that are helpful
for healing cracked heels. At nights,
massage your feet using petroleum
jelly and sleep off with cotton socks on
to pacify your overworked toes.
QI’ve heard that waxing off
facial hair causes the facial
skin to loosen over time. Is this
true? If yes, what would be the
best way to deal with this?
– Shraddha
A Skin does tend to lose its
elasticity over time with regular
waxing sessions. Go in for threading
instead. But, in case your hair density
is high, threading may not work for
you. In order to avoid the hassle
forever, you can go in for a hair-
removal procedure called Intense
Pulsed Light (IPL). It’s a skin-friendly,
convenient, painless laser treatment.
In case your hair growth in not too
coarse, you may opt for bleaching,
which is in no way harmful when
done at a professional salon. Oxy,
Protein and Gold are the ace options
for bleaching, which are suitable for
all skin-types.

FLICKED OUT
Pink pouts and cheeks
with radiant spring skin
tones set the stage
at Anavilla. Natasha
created a cat eye that
was barely there, yet
made just the right
impact. This is a look
girls across the country
can replicate safely, be it
at campus or work!

eye spy
SHEFALI SAMDRIA presents three eye make-up innovations from
the Lakmé Fashion Week that will soon be the trends to follow!
MAKING EYES
S
ince ancient times, eye make-up has been the focal
point of beauty and its pursuit from gemstones ground
for Cleopatra’s eye-lids to the home-made kohl that
remind you of your grandmother. Indian make-up has
thus far steered away from intense experimentation
when it comes to the eyes. You saw the same boring eye-liner/kohl
look everywhere, until Natasha Nischol of FAT MU gave three very
unique looks that had everyone raving!
GRAPHITE GAZE
Kohl is almost primeval, the smoky eye
is almost a cliché. Then FAT MU went
ahead and created a smudged out,
smoky eye in grey hues that spread out
towards the temples like a fish fin. The
combination with the mohawk braid and
bodycon silhouette was just delectable.
BEATEN GOLD
Think beaten gold leaves on Indian
sweets seen at weddings and festivals.
An almost identical look was created
at the Raghavendra Rathore show
for his bridal collection. Luminiscent
bronze cheekbones and pale pinkish
gold lipcolour made this every bride’s
must-do!
May 201596
W
ho doesn’t
love sunny
summer
days? But,
greasy
skin, smeared eye liner, sticky
lipstick and melting foundation
are not so appealing, right?
We thought you’d say that.
In this heat-fuelled weather,
keeping your game face on
is a task. But don’t worry; we
won’t let your beautiful make-
up masterpiece go to waste
so easily. Follow these simple
beauty tips to make sure
that your make-up stays on
perfectly from dawn to dusk,
making you look like a flawless
summer goddess.
The sweltering summer heat can be
your make-up’s biggest enemy! HENA
DESAI is ready to step in as your
knight in shining armour to save you
from a messy make-up meltdown.

I will recommend this magazine to all my friends.Thank you so much for a publishing a wonderful article like this. - Alaavia DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUN BURN AND SUN TAN Though there is no standard explanation for this, generally speaking a sun burn is the skin’s reaction to short term exposure to the harsh UV rays of the sun. It occurs as painful or sore red patch/ patches on sun-exposed areas and can even develop blisters. A sun tan on the other hand, is a painless darkening of skin post sun exposure. Sun burn is usually seen in fairer individuals while a sun tan is usually seen in darker individuals; however this may not always be true. A tan is our skin’s attempt to prevent UV rays from doing any further damage to the sensitive cells in our epidermis. However, it does not help protect our skin from getting sunburn in the future. While all suntans fade over time, here are few tips that you can follow under supervision of a dermatologist to speed up the fading of your sun tan. skin care Are the thoughts of a bad tan shadowing your fun summer itinerary? DR. VARUN KATYAL is here to help you prevent and get rid of that awful sun tan. S ummer time is the time to go out for vacations and picnics. But, as we all know, too much sun exposure can be a bad thing and especially due to skin tan. A day at the beach, hours spent swimming, not using a sunscreen regularly or not using it properly – any of these may cause a skin tan you don’t want. Contrary to popular belief, a tan is not “healthy.” A tan is a sign of skin damage. When exposed to the sun’s UV rays, our skin’s melanocytes produce melanin, the dark pigment that creates the tan. AllImages©shutterstock.com April 2015 105April 2015104 April 2015 55 from the heart VowtoWowYour hair has made a serious commitment to make you look gorgeous and it’s time you return the favour! We’ve compiled a list of promises, keeping in mind the teachings of the wise hair gurus, which you must make to your locks, staying true to them in sickness and in health. Text Hena Desai I will make my peace with my natural hair 1Wavy, straight, curly, thin or thick- your hair is great in its natural form and you must learn to love it! If you accept your hair as it is, with all its pluses and minuses, you will be able to treat it with the right products and give it the kind of care it actually needs. You will look and feel better about yourself and your hair, trust us. I will find ‘the one’ (we mean the perfect hairstylist of course) 5 partner at times, right? If you have a stylist you visit regularly, they will know what hair type they are working with, will already know what your preferences are along with know what suits you and what doesn’t. The end result will turn out to be more fabulous so understands your haircare needs and cling onto him/her dearly! When there are so many great hair trends out there, why be afraid to experiment? Different styles, colours and cuts- try them all! Have faith in your stylist and give your locks a new look every now and then. Don’t be too afraid to go wrong; if a particular colour ends up looking too drastic you can always have it dyed back and if a cut is too short, it will always grow back! I will not be afraid to experiment 2 Just like how it impacts everything else in your body, what you eat has a great effect on your hair as well. Intake of the right kinds of food can boost hair growth and repair hair and spinach are known to be good for hair so include them in your diet. Also, taking iron and vitamin supplements (under the guidance of a dermatologist) will help improve the health of your locks, resulting in a glossy, voluminous look. I will nourish my hair with healthy food 6 Let us put it this way: you are slowly killing your hair by using styling tools Each time you use a hair straightner, curler or even a blow-dryer, make sure you work in a heat protectant serum work towards preventing dry, damaged and brittle hair. So if you want your hair to retain its health and shine even after styling, don’t skimp out on using a protectant. I will not style without using serum 3 Getting regular trims is an absolute must if you want those darned split-ends to stay away. Trimming will keep your haircut looking fresh and the ends of hair looking healthy. It also stops breakage of hair, thus preventing hair thinning towards the bottom. Don’t forget to set reminders to book an appointment with your stylist every three-four months. I will trim my way to healthy hair 4 not dress them up a little? Choose from hairbands to embellished pins to funky hair ties or barrettes to dress up your hair! You can try creating simple hairstyles such as braids, messy buns, etc and accessorise them with cute hair baubles. There are so many fun options to choose from; you’ll be glad you tried them! I will accessorise 8 ImageCourtesy©JDWilliams|PRShots.com ImageCourtesy©Apricot|PRShots.com April 201554 This one is an oldie but a goodie. We’ve all heard our mothers and grandmothers advising us to oil our hair religiously and they were not wrong in telling us to do so. Oiling has proven to be a great way to strengthen the roots, reverse dryness and to add an enviable sheen to your hair. There are a variety of oils that you may choose from depending on your hair type- olive, coconut, almond, jojoba, etc. Simply massage the oil to your hair and leave it on for 20-30 minutes I will follow mum’s advice (for once) and oil my hair 7 TRENDY GEEK is the best magazine ever! I love all the articles that are published here but the one article that really caught my eye was ‘Beauty Specs.’ I always felt ugly whenever I wore my spectacles. But after reading this article I understood which frames are suitable for my face and how my eyes can still stand out. Please keep publishing more articles like this in the future. - Karina

QWhat measures do I take to combat the greying process? ~ Arti A A faulty diet and stress are the two primary causes while deficiency of B vitamins, iron, copper and iodine in the daily diet worsens it.Treatment for premature greying is preventive with a regular healthy diet, proper hair and scalp hygiene and de- stressing activities are helpful along with intake of L-tyrosine. Consult a trichologist to know the cause and treatment accordingly. QMy daughter seems to have caught a lice infestation. Is there a permanent and effective method to keep these issues at bay? ~ Vedika A To keep lice at bay and prevent subsequent complications like cross infections, boils and pustules, maintaining a regular hygiene routine is important. Nits or lice eggs need to be removed manually. Keep the scalp healthy and clean, oil hair thrice a week and wash off with shampoo as unclean hair causes clogged pores and lice.

Keep combs, pillows and towels of the affected child separate and wash them as many times as possible. QI’ve recently learnt that my son has alopecia areata. What do you recommend? ~ Shweta A The main cause is physical or mental stress, post vaccination, lice or during viral illnesses. Treatment for alopecia areata attempts to reduce the white blood cells associated with the problem. If this can be done, the hair will regrow. Trichologists often recommend oral intake of L-tyrosine, an amino acid that decreases the neuropeptides in the skin. This in turn reduces auto- inflammation. This condition needs to be diagnosed and treated by a trichologist only. QI have flaky dandruff that refuses to come off unless I scratch it out. Please recommend a solution. ~ Anuj A Wash hair daily with scalp cleanser and alternately with an anti-dandruff shampoo. Regular oiling and cleaning of hair with a mild formulation helps. Use some lemon in the last rinse after a shampoo as it keeps dandruff at bay. HairRepairYour route to perfect hair every day. I had straightened my hair a few months back. The texture of my normal growth is completely different which makes it look ugly and fake. How do I deal with this transition? ~ Karina A Straightening is an extremely tedious and harsh process which applies tremendous heat to convert the protein cystine (which makes up hair) into cysteine and then manipulates the hair into a certain look. Do ensure internal nourishment to the hair shafts by eating a balanced diet, regular oiling and regular tricho-scalp treatment and check the strength of your hair by visiting your nearest trichologist. The emphasis should be on conditioning. So make sure you end the wash cycle with an intensive conditioner. Increase the intake of water, especially coconut water. Q

  • 28. Styling does not always have to suck the life out of your hair. Trust POOJA RAISINGHANI to help you turn it all around! pG one are the days when you’d run your fingers through your hair and play it like a soulful harp. Your tresses have gotten a bit too fussy this season with the irregular heat and humidity. We’re here to guide you through these distressing times in a stylish manner. There is a stigma associated with using too many heating tools on your hair but then we’ve all known at least someone who styles their hair so very frequently without any traces of damage. Although, we don’t encourage this behaviour, we’ve just observed that many have figured out a way to do it right and we shan’t stand the fact that you aren’t one of them. So behold the techniques that didn’t come with the manual. Limit your exposure: Jumping out of the shower and falling under the dryer is the worst thing you could do to yourself. Either wrap your head in a towel turban or air dry about 80% of your hair and then blow-dry to style it. Never use a hair straightener on wet strands. May 201528 AllImages©shutterstock.com
  • 29. Make smart sections: You don’t have to numb your arms by dividing your strands into a million sections; just four are enough. Clip the rest up while you’re working on one. Left, right, front and back; the back of the head can be divided into two but that’s about it. Test the air blast: Your scalp is sensitive as it has always been extremely protected. Feel the heat on the back of your hand before exposing it to your hair for calculated risks are comparatively safer. Always use heat protectants before styling: While heat protectant serums prevent your hair from damage caused by hot styling tools, it is important to choose products that do not contain alcohol- based ingredients. The alcohol content will only make your hair dry, which is the exact opposite of how a protecting serum is supposed to function. chic zone Stroke the right way: Always maintain more than eight inches distance between the nozzle of the dryer and your hair. While straightening, always start from the roots and iron your way slowly to the tips; never start mid-way as the lack of consistency will lead to breakage. Generously invest about two to three seconds per strand. Clean your wand: Make sure you regularly clean your magical equipment for an optimal performance. Dust the back of your dryer with a tooth brush and you could use baby wipes for your hair straighter among other options. Now that you’re all set to experiment a lot more with your looks, go ahead and get yourself VEGA’s Chic Styler Grooming kit containing of both, a multiple heat setting Hair Dryer and Straightener with Ceramic coated plates for the perfect styling regime.

Little Tell us a little about your exhilarating Miss India International 2014 journey. I have been asked this question a number of times and I never get tired of answering it; being crowned Miss India is something I will cherish forever. It was a journey filled with surprises! At 19, when most of us are busy studying or going to college, I was given this huge responsibility of representing India. Photographs©RushilMehta
  • 31. May 2015 31 tête-à-tête What’s does Jhataleka Malhotra’s hair care ritual consist of? Looking after your hair is extremely important. Everyone has different hair types, varying in length, texture and thickness. For me, conditioning is the most important aspect. I stick to natural means that involve using curd and eggs— they work wonders! What is the one hairstyle that we are most likely to spot you in? I love beach waves— love the raw texture and it is totally my thing! What is your idea of pampering yourself? I am a firm believer of retail therapy! I love to shop and that is only way in which I truly indulge! What’s your mantra to deal with a bad hair day? I like to tie my hair in a braid or a high ponytail. One quick fix would be to use some curling mousse and tie your hair in a braid or bun— when you open them you will have beautiful waves! All you need to do then is just use a spray to set it in place. What are your thoughts on short hairstyles like the undercut and bobs that are all the rage these days? How likely are you to sport them? I think they look super cool and edgy! I surely want to try them someday. Do share a message for your loyal fans and readers. I want to thank you all for the love and support that you have showered me with last year! It means a lot to me and gives me immense encouragement to keep working harder and doing better. FIVE BEAUTY PRODUCTS THAT YOU ALWAYS HAVE IN YOUR HANDBAG * 8 hour Cream by Elizabeth Arden * Mascara * Mineral Powder * Lip Tint * Wet Wipes How has life changed post this pagent? This is something that has helped me grow as an individual, made me independent and invoked a sense of understanding, which otherwise would have developed much later. Do you think you are under a certain amount of pressure to look perfect all the time? How do you deal with it? I don’t treat it as pressure— to me it’s more like a process where you’re constantly being introduced to different shades of your own personality. Someone told me long ago that happiness is the key to looking perfect all the time. I think it’s how you feel about yourself and how happy and confident you are about the way you carry yourself that makes you look your best. Moreover beauty lies in imperfection; we shouldn’t lose our individuality. Do share your fitness secret with our readers. My fitness regime is not complicated at all! I do take breaks in the middle, but I give all credit to ATS Workouts (high altitude training) and Pilates to keep me in shape. Besides this, it is extremely important to eat healthy and in the right quantities.

  • 42. May 201544 DOUBLE HAT CHIGNON The chignon has travelled a long way from ancient Greece where it first added glamour to Athenian women. Traditionally, the chignon was a smallish bun at the nape of the neck. Lakmé salon has created its own dramatic version of this classic low-key style, inspired by the double domes commonly seen in Barcelona. Voluminous hair sleekly styled in an up-do that resembles a faux hat, this style adds oodles of oomph when needed. With a sculpted saree gown, this can even take you back to ancient times as you make a queenly entrance at soirees!
  • 43. MARSALA STAIRS The colour of the year deserves its own dedicated style and this geometrical piece of art is not for the faint-hearted! The cascading hair with abrupt yet sculpted layers will add a note of Renaissance modernism to any personality irrespective of clothing or occasion. Straightened or crimped, hair is elevated to a statement rather than an afterthought and the colour takes the ‘Sculpt’ philosophy to a new stratosphere! May 2015 45
  • 44. May 201546 CHAMPAGNE SHIMMER Gold is no more an ornament but a sentiment. Women have used gold powder and pigments for make- up for a while now and this style counts on subtly shimmering pigments. With this look, bold, precise and high-definition is back in vogue, and the sculpt look if applied right, can deliver this to perfection. Not only does it accentuate dominant features like high cheekbones and striking eyes, it defines and highlights sharper facial features, thereby reinstating make-up as an art form.
  • 45. Smooth Transition O f the multiple things that have teamed up to make our lives a little more better and convenient, the shampoo and conditioner combo is arguably the best. Although, the conditioner is fairly new and doesn’t really get enough credit, it’s a shame to not acknowledge its importance especially when you’re recovering from all the chemicals you splashed over yourself! Colouring, rebonding and smoothening are scribbled eloquently on the list of endless attempts for making your tresses manageable, vibrant and trendy. They all tend to suck the life out of your hair if you fail to maintain a nourishing routine. That is reflected on the health of the new batch of hair that peeps out the roots. We agree that dealing with the transitioning process is the worst phase ever. Also, it’s always wise to choose to wait for your natural hair to completely grow back rather than risking a dramatic chopped off look. Since, shampooing your hair everyday can adversely damage your hair; condition even without washing, it is a viable option to escape dull hair. One of the biggest challenges is to prevent breakage; the most brittle zone is where the fresh growth meets the chemically treated hair. Berina’s Protein Conditioner is specially enriched with goodness of proteins that not only nourishes hair and refurbishes dead locks but also repairs and restores them completely. The oil-free formulation acts as a moisturizer and makes hair silky smooth. The protein in the conditioner gets easily absorbed by hair, thereby nurturing them completely. Regularly use this innovative hair mask to make your tresses dramatically stronger, healthier, smooth and shiny!

  • 46. Hair care for mothersSHAHNAZ HUSAIN shares the secrets every young mother needs to know for a yummy-mummy mane! May 201548 A woman’s body goes through multiple physiological, hormonal and glandular changes during and after pregnancy. The hormonal activity usually benefits the hair during pregnancy, because of higher estrogen levels. Many women recollect that their hair looked thicker and shinier during this time. Actually, hair normally grows in three phases: growth, resting and shedding. But, during pregnancy, due to higher estrogen levels, the growth and resting phases become longer and the hair falls less. It also looks healthy and thick. Good nutrition, along with vitamin and mineral supplements also improves the look of the hair. Of course, stress can trigger off hair problems and hair loss.

  • 47. May 2015 49 hair care Once or twice a week, heat pure coconut oil or olive oil and apply on the hair. Do a hot towel wrap for five minutes and repeat four times. This helps the hair and scalp absorb the oil better. Go for timely hair cuts and head massages. I feel that it is better to avoid chemical dyes and colourants during pregnancy. Go for natural hair colour, like henna, or those that contain natural colourants like indigo, catechu and henna. They give the hair a blackish brown colour. Nutrition is a very important factor for healthy hair, especially during and after pregnancy, as well as lactation. The hair is actually fed by the nutrients in the blood stream. I would recommend taking a small bowl of sprouts daily. Sprouts contain amino acids, which are very beneficial to the hair. Include fresh fruits, raw salads, leafy green vegetables, whole grains, curd and adequate protein in the diet. Consult your doctor about it. Along with a nutritious diet, daily exercise, relaxation, adequate sleep and a healthy lifestyle are required for healthy hair growth. TRY THESE SIMPLE RECIPES AT HOME: Dandruff often triggers hair loss. Apply two tablespoons apple cider vinegar before shampoo. After shampoo, add two tablespoons vinegar to a mug of water and use it as a last rinse. Once a week, heat olive oil and apply on the scalp with a light massage. Leave on overnight. Next morning, apply the juice of a lemon on the scalp and wash the hair after ten minutes as usual. Green tea can also be used as a hair rinse after shampoo. Add the juice of a lemon to four cups of green tea and use it as a last rinse after shampoo. Like Coconut Oil, but Coconut milk is also said to promote hair growth too. It also softens the hair. Mix it with lemon juice and apply on the hair. Wash the hair with plain lukewarm water after ten minutes. Follow this treatment twice a week and you will find your hair is smoother and healthier. Egg is one of the most versatile ingredients. It contains silicon, sulphur and fatty acids that help to nourish the hair and promote growth. It also contains Biotin, a vitamin that helps hair growth. Beat an egg with a little milk to form a thickish consistency and apply it on the scalp and hair. After half an hour, rinse the hair well with water, after adding some eau-de-cologne. It is said that onion juice can be applied on the scalp to help hair growth because onions contain sulphur. Healthy hair is not really difficult to achieve. What one needs is awareness of the kind of treatment it requires. I also believe that nature is not only an expert chemist, but also the best cosmetologist. During pregnancy, due to higher estrogen levels, the growth and resting phases become longer and the hair falls less. It also looks healthy and thick AllImages©shutterstock.com Regular hair care during pregnancy should include shampooing the hair, two to three times a week depending on the season and also on the hair type. For eg. oily hair needs to be shampooed frequently, especially during humid weather. Allow the hair to dry naturally as often as you can and avoid tying the hair back tightly. Habitual tying of the hair tightly can cause enough trauma to the roots, leading to hair loss. It can often be the cause of hair loss at the hairline.

  • 51. May 2015 53 Anyone can make it work Yes, anyone! Long, short, wavy, fine or thickly-tressed ladies can pull it off! Think of the trend as the sleekest, healthiest version of your own hair. And for curly girlies… This look totally works for curls too, but if you want to smooth them out, try applying a smoothing balm on freshly-washed, damp hair before blow-drying. Blow-dry your hair straight with a paddle brush for the sleekest finish (if you dry small enough sections at a time, you shouldn’t need to break out the straighteners). It cuts out unnecessary products For the most part, all you’ll need is the following: • MOISTURISING SHAMPOO/CONDITIONER DUO – This will help to hydrate your hair, ensuring it’ll be flyaway-free! • TAIL COMB – For the precise side-parting. • SMOOTHING BALM – To prep damp hair for straightening. • STRAIGHTENERS/HAIRDRYER – Whichever method of straightening you prefer. • SHINE SPRAY – Wave bye-bye to crisp finishing sprays – the only thing you’ll need to complete your look is a subtle glisten for the ultimate in fuss-free, glossy locks. No time? No problem! You can make this look last until the next time you wash your hair! At night, simply twist into a low bun and pin in place, then come morning, undo and brush through. You’ll be left with an oh-so-subtle natural wave. The only thing is… There’s nowhere to hide! Just like the “no make-up” trend, this look really does expose flaws, so you need to keep your mane in tip-top condition. That means regular trims, deep-conditioning treatments and moisture masks! FeatureAkeshaReidIMAGEsCourtesyofTONI&GUY Barely there haircare It’s the easiest trend of SS15 – healthy, sleek hair that’s über unfussy and uses minimal products. As if you really need convincing to rock this trend… but if you do, here are a few reasons we think it’s ace. SS15ZeynepKartal
  • 52. May 201554 Tackling hair-maresLike the idea of a fresh new mane but unsure of the outcome? Whether you’re scared of scissors or nervous of a colour change, our no-panic guide will help you take those small steps towards facing your fears and embracing a whole new you! FeatureEmilyLouiseOvery ISTOCK PROBLEM: I’m scared of wearing my hair up SOLUTION: It’s all about finding the right ponytail to suit your face shape and there will be no need to hide behind your hair. Practice wearing your ponytail at different heights – from high on the crown to low at the nape. High ponytails will look great on round face shapes, while those with square faces should frame their look with a few tendrils. PROBLEM: I’m scared to dye my hair for the first time SOLUTION: Find out what shades would suit your natural skin tone and ask your stylist for their advice before picking one. Don’t too stray too far from your natural shade so you can still transform your look without being too drastic. If you don’t want to commit, try an ombré style, as it is easy to grow out and you can cut off your ends when you’re bored with it. LeeStafford SylvestreFinold&James Alfie
  • 53. May 2015 55 PROBLEM: I want a pixie cut, but I’m scared of the chop SOLUTION: Pixie cuts are great for an edgy look and really show off those cheekbones, but make sure you know your face shape before visiting the salon. Oval-shaped faces can pull off nearly any style of pixie cut, but heart-shaped ladies should aim to add height at the crown to elongate their features. SavvyHair–savvyhair. co.uk PROBLEM: My style falls flat in an hour and I can never keep the volume! SOLUTION: Try not to use too much conditioner, as that can weigh the hair down and make it fall flat after styling. Instead, when your hair is towel-dry, get plenty of mousse on the crown of your hair, which will uplift roots. Applying a root-boosting powder and washing with a volumising shampoo/conditioner will also work wonders. PROBLEM: My hair gets greasy too quickly after washing SOLUTION: Try to wash your hair every other day to better regulate sebum production and stock up on the wonder that is dry shampoo. Pop a can in your handbag and spray and massage in when you need those root touch-ups during the day. PROBLEM: I struggle to style my short hair SOLUTION: Invest in some good quality hair extensions, clip-ins and styling products like moulding pastes and waxes. Have fun experimenting with lots of different textures and styles. You can also update your look with semi permanent colours and hair chalks for a blast of creative colour. PROBLEM: SOLUTION: Don’t try too hard with your updos. Keep things relaxed by incorporating plaits into your look. There are plenty of how-to videos online that can teach you how to do Dutch, French and fishtail plaits. Try incorporating these into your standard updo – they are set to be among the biggest catwalk trends in 2015. PROBLEM: Girly accessories make me look silly SOLUTION: Keep things all grown up by making your look effortless but edgy – if you’re wearing a glittery hair band then put your hair in a loose, messy bun and keep your eye make-up dark. PROBLEM: SOLUTION: Test the water with a good quality clip-in fringe before taking the plunge! PROBLEM: I’m a slave to my straighteners SOLUTION: As tough as it is, step away from the irons – they are extremely damaging to the hair and can cause split ends. As an alternative, wash your hair with straightening shampoo and conditioner, then, after towel-drying your hair, apply some argan oil and plait your hair or put it up into large rollers before sleeping with them in overnight. Voilà! Gorgeous curls or waves without the heat damage!

  • 70. May 201572 Babbling Beards I t’s quite a daunting task to weigh the intensely contradicting preferences in choosing what style of beard to sport. Considering the options, it’s a shame to not have experimented with the second most masculine thing you have to offer. Although, the only king in the deck of cards without any facial hair is of Hearts, it shouldn’t convince you otherwise. You could probably give it a shot to get your fist bumped by your men and swooned over by your women. This is the perfect season for you as summer speeds up the growing process and also protects you from tanning, making it easier for you to achieve the ultimate symbol of strength, manliness, self-esteem and status. A man with a beard has an immediate, visceral impact. POOJA RAISINGHANI sheds some light on the general perceptions for you to choose your look this summer! “Well, I have better things to do in life. I could add you to that list.” STUBBLE The rugged stubble can be misleading in several fun ways. It speaks volume about a man who cares to keep up with the current trends. Contrary to popular belief, the reckless look is extremely high maintenance for it requires timely grooming and styling sessions. But, you’ll be out there making them wonder what you’ve been up to. You were probably busy cracking that major deal or practicing for the soccer finals. Lightly scratch your beard when you spot them looking at you as though in deep thought, that’ll do the trick.

  • 71. You’re sure to dominate her entire existence and she’ll be more than happy to jump onto this ride. male grooming “Hey, I’m actually a really nice guy. Let’s cuddle! No? Okay then, brace yourself for some poetry. “ “Feel my masculinity from afar. Mess with me and I’ll have my men take care of you. “ SOUL PATCH+GOATEE Having gotten bullied your entire teenage life, these patches of hair finally shoved those disturbing encounters in a dark alley, right where they belong. If only you could keep that desperate adolescent version of you from making every situation awkward. An annoying know-it-all who’ll criticise the wine till its last drop to a mushy sitcom dude who believes in romanticizing everything; basically anything that increases the probability of getting in her pants will sum up a man who ‘chooses’ to sport this look. CHIN STRAP BEARD You live in the gym, juggling your women while grooving to the beats of EDM. Then subtly flex your biceps to exhibit your abstract tattoo for some more attention; attention which you totally deserve. Do they have any idea how long it takes you to shape that perfect strap? You’re sure to dominate her entire existence and she’ll be more than happy to jump into this ride. May 2015 73
  • 72. May 201574 FULLY GROWN BEARD A glance from the corner of the eye, that’s all it would take for you to slice their soul into pieces and you can very well put it back together in the same moment. But by then, you would have figured them out. Struggled your way through life, you’ve survived it all but nothing and no one was ever worth the effort. You’ve travelled far and wide, sold the Harley for the woman who was once enchanted by it. But that’s not the story your children would hear. “You don’t deserve my attention. Now if you excuse me, I have to go get back to my woman.” “You look better than my axe. Do you like wood too?” MUTTON CHOPS The self proclaimed macho creature of the forest, you can talk about your adventures all day. Whether it’s slaughtering a random goat for dinner or a car crash you nearly escaped, your extreme stories can get so amusing that they question the authenticity. Just let them enjoy the old country music playing while you carry out your day to day manly chores. Well, that pretty much sums up your extravagant dare devil persona. So, have you taken your pick? Or are you still pondering over the options whilst stroking your existing beard. We couldn’t agree more, it’s a massive decision as it would instantly add five years to your look but effectively seal the younger version of your skin as well. The UV rays that it blocks, reduces the chances of cancer. So if not for sex appeal, grow it for science at least!

  • 90. May 201592 QISHIKA TANEJA, international make-up expert and Executive Director, The Alps Group, solves all your skin and make-up troubles. S.O.Ssave our skins! I have a combination of dry and oily skin. How can I take care of it in the summer to make sure it doesn’t get too dry or too oily? – Nadia A Dry skin tends to get normal and oily skin tends to get too oily in summers. Since you possess a combination skin-type, your T-zone will get more oily while the rest will stay normal. You ought to use specific products for each zone. While washing your face, use a deep-pore cleanser on your T-zone but mix it with water while applying it on your cheeks and jaw area. Dab a tea-tree astringent and apply a gel-based moisturizer on your entire face. Make sure you protect your skin with a gel-based sunscreen. Be sure to use summer-specific make-up products to bid adieu to any sheen on your face. Q QYears of waxing and other forms of hair removal have left my underarms dark and patchy. Is there any way to effectively reverse this? –Ananya A Waxing can never cause dark underarms. The reason for your woes seem to be the other measures you must have gone through like hair removal creams and razors. To deal with it, you may use this effective scrub-cum-pack: add two tbsps lemon juice with three tbsps oats, three tbsps sandalwood powder & two tbsps grated potato to form a paste. Now, gently scrub your underarms using it. Wash off and repeat regularly to notice steady effects of this remedy. Ditch your deodorants for some time as it will only hamper the brightening process. You may also go for bleach and peel treatment sittings at a professional salon but make sure to maintain an adequate interval between sittings. In IPL is the solution for you. Intensed Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy is the best way to permanently reduce unwanted hair. This revolutionary, Italian technology is the safest and effective measure for hair-removal that has no side effects. QMy feet are in a terrible shape-cracked and tanned. Is there a foot care routine that I can follow to combat this? – Isha A Your feet clearly exhibit the care you provide to them. Keep them clean and well-moisturised— just as you do for your face. For this, scrub your feet using a pumice stone on a daily basis while bathing and massage them with a rich moisturizer after. Prepare a mixture of glycerin, papaya pulp, honey and lemon juice in equal parts and apply it daily to get brighter and smoother feet. You may use lemon pieces with sugar to scrub you feet. While the sugar takes all the dead skin away, the lemon extract will brighten pedicure sessions that are helpful for healing cracked heels. At nights, massage your feet using petroleum jelly and sleep off with cotton socks on to pacify your overworked toes. QI’ve heard that waxing off facial hair causes the facial skin to loosen over time. Is this true? If yes, what would be the best way to deal with this? – Shraddha A Skin does tend to lose its elasticity over time with regular waxing sessions. Go in for threading instead. But, in case your hair density is high, threading may not work for you. In order to avoid the hassle forever, you can go in for a hair- removal procedure called Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). It’s a skin-friendly, convenient, painless laser treatment. In case your hair growth in not too coarse, you may opt for bleaching, which is in no way harmful when done at a professional salon. Oxy, Protein and Gold are the ace options for bleaching, which are suitable for all skin-types. E-mail us to get some advice from our expert.

  • 93. eye spy SHEFALI SAMDRIA presents three eye make-up innovations from the Lakmé Fashion Week that will soon be the trends to follow! MAKING EYES S ince ancient times, eye make-up has been the focal point of beauty and its pursuit from gemstones ground for Cleopatra’s eye-lids to the home-made kohl that remind you of your grandmother. Indian make-up has thus far steered away from intense experimentation when it comes to the eyes.
