Beauty blogger/vlogger Shalini Samuel is much-loved by her followers for her take on all things hair. She is often inundated with questions relating to haircare on her blog/vlog Knot Me Pretty on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. She takes on a few commonly asked questions, and offers hairfall solutions, as a part of the Grow your Hair Naturally Series presented by Femina.
Hairfall woes: Mumbai-based 23-year-old Meghna is daunted by the rate at which she’s losing hair. She reached out to Shalini on her Instagram account asking for help.
Hairfall solution: “Your lifestyle affects everything. It affects your mind, body, skin, and of course, your hair! If you’ve taken up a new job, have been stressed about something, or have been eating a lot of junk food, you have to rectify it. In addition, I recommend using the Indulekha Bringha Hair Oil and Indulekha Bringha Shampoo for Hair Fall regularly for visible results. Now, these products are ayurvedic and free of chemicals or artificial fragrances. They are also only enriched with herbs which are amazing for hair growth and hair health.”
Pro tip: For optimum results, use the Indulekha Bringha Hair Oil thrice a week for four months, though you will see a visible difference in just four weeks. Leave it on for two hours and wash with the Indulekha Bringha Shampoo for Hair Fall.
Personal haircare routine: Richa from Delhi wrote to Shalini on her Facebook page asking about her personal haircare routine.
Hair care solution: The beauty blogger reveals that she’s a huge fan of oiling. “I love coconut oil for everything. I like it for my skin, hair, and also for cooking. Personally, I like using the Indulekha Bringha Hair Oil. It also has virgin coconut oil in it, so sometimes, when the temperature drops, it tends to solidify, but that doesn’t affect the efficacy of the oil. Just heat it up slightly and you’ll be good to go. This is my secret to good hair.”
Pro tip: If the oil solidifies, pour some warm water in a bowl and dip the Indulekha hair oil bottle in it for some time. Besides, heated oil is great for a scalp massage. After applying the oil on your scalp with the Selfie Comb, massage gently in a circular motion with your fingertips.
Go-to hair advice: Maya, who hails from Bangalore, sent Shalini a question on her YouTube channel, quizzing her about fool-proof haircare advice.
Hair care rules to live by: “I always say that a diet rich in antioxidants and iron must be followed. It is also important to lead a healthy lifestyle, use natural products, and to oil your hair regularly,” she says.
Pro tip: A rich hair diet should be ideally filled with leafy greens like spinach, nuts, citrus fruits, berries, and protein. If you are a vegetarian, plant-based proteins and protein supplements are great for reducing hairfall and promoting hair growth naturally.
