Butterfly pony-tail perm:

In this style of perming, hair is fully curled. First of all, part your hair from the middle onto left and right up to the nape. Then tie the 2 parts separately into a pony-tail.

Now divide the pony-tail into many small parts and curl them around perming solution. Follow the same routine for the other pony-tail. After sometime, open the hair slowly and carefully.

Root perm:

This perm does not just make the hair attractive; it also makes your body smarter and taller. In root perming, the hair is given a crown shape. Begin from the middle portion of the hair and roll them on the perm rods in small lumps one after the other.

When you have finished rolling the hair, clip the rod and apply perming lotion on the rolled portion. Follow the same procedure with the back and front portion of your hair. To protect your hair, cover the head with a plastic wrapper (cap).

Top knot perm:

For beautiful and lustrous hair, top knot perm is found to be the most effective. Tie your hair into a pony tail on the top of your head. After this, divide the tied hair into small parts. Now roll them on the perming rods starting from the ends and clip the rods near the pony-tail. Apply perming solution on the rolled portion.

  2. you need to invest in a good flat iron. judging by the sound of it you probably need a trim if the end won't straighten,their probably damaged.Try a product like proclaim hair glosser before you flat iron your hair. make sure you do small thin sections at a time, but definitely get a trim.

    Root perms are sometimes offered by salons that emphasize a high fashion image. These can look marvelous, giving the hair a real lift, but they lose their appeal as the hair grows and the curl moves away from the root.

    Perms for short hair are not recommended either. Short hair and layered hair can end up looking unruly and unmanageable after a perm

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...

Aloevera, the wonder herb

Of all the herbs available in the kitchen garden, aloe is perhaps the richest in healing properties and has been rightly named the “first-aid” plant. It has moisturizing and emollient properties and is used in cosmetic creams, sun-lotions, shaving creams and face packs. It can easily be cultivated as a house-plant in a sunny warm spot with good drainage. Cosmetologists mix aloe with several other herbs and draft fancy names for it. Then these “herbal” avatars are sold at exorbitant prices. Growing a plant and using fresh gel is much more effective than bottled gel, simply because it is alive and therefore is more potent. It is the only plant whose extract is applied directly from plant to face in its natural and purest form.
