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.

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.
