A couple of months back I was invited by Marico’s to try one of their popular hair products – Hair & Care non sticky hair oil – and avail a free stylist hair cut from one of the renowned chain salons in India as part of the offer. Exciting, isn’t it? Well, I felt the same and grabbed the offer. A while later, it occurred to me that I am in the process of growing my hair and a hair cut would be the last thing on my beauty service list! Holy Cow! But then, what are BFFs for? So I called up my BFF, Manisha Arora (also R2B’s social media manger) and she happily agreed to take the hair cut.

Before I head on to the hair oil review, here’s a bit about the free hair cut offer: Continue reading

It’s been almost five months now that I’ve been using Patanjali Kesh Kanti line of hair cleansers. My craze for Patanjali shampoos started, when I bought my first bottle of Patanjali Kesh Kanti Natural hair cleanser for brittle, falling hair without any expectation from the brand/shampoo to work, but was totally amazed with the results.

The shampoo worked on my dry, brittle hair and oily scalp better than any reputed drugstore shampoo or professional salon product. After that bottle got over, I got my second and third bottles of different variants from the same herbal brand. And quite frankly to say, I wasn’t disappointed with any of the variants.

A couple of months back I tried – Hair for Sure tonic from Athena Life Sciences for my hair loss problem and –came away totally impressed. I decided to keep an eye on the brand.

I often get dandruff from time to time, particularly when the seasons change. And to treat it I often reach for an anti-dandruff shampoo – sometimes Dove, sometimes Heads & Shoulders depending on the condition of my hair and scalp. But while these shampoos are effective in treating dandruff, they leave me with super dry hair.

Learning D’Free Anti-Dandruff Lotion too is a product from Athena Life Sciences, I immediately bought it to treat my dandruff problem during this winter. Now whether, this anti-dandruff overnight lotion turned out to be a hit or a miss, read review to discover. Continue reading

I have dry, wavy hairs that tend to get all the more dry and unruly in hot, humid weather. So quite rationally, I always use some sort of leave-in hair oil or conditioner on my ends to keep them throwing any wild fits. But still no matter how well they behave indoors, when the temperature soars outside and humidity proliferates, they turn into feral vampires.

I had been using L’Oreal Professional Liss Unlimited leave in cream to keep my hair looking calm and smooth. But this was back when I was using flat iron every other day to straighten my hair and it left me with super dry, frizzy hair. And while it did help me bring my mop back to the brink, it’s been weighing my hair down of-late, maybe since I have now embraced my natural waves and chilled out of heat styling. Continue reading

There was a time when I had wonder woman hair – thick, long, and strong.  Then I had kids and I turned into a professionally certified worrywart with thin, fragile hair. And while, I take good care of myself and have never had much of weight and skincare issues, I have always faced problems with my hair.

And if you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you probably already know that I am extremely picky about my hair. It’s hard to manage them and once they get into the shedding mode it’s almost impossible to stop them! Continue reading

In the interest of beauty science, I keep experimenting with new products and brands. But ask me about my favorite ones and they are only a handful.  Dove hair therapy daily shine shampoo is one of them. Why? Because it is gentle on my hair and comes at a fraction of the cost. But price and hydration isn’t all I like about this shampoo. Continue reading
