I seriously knew it was time to do something about my falling hair when D from my office said one beautiful rainy June morning .'your hair is falling!'. Coming from any other person I probably would have given them my 2 pennies worth. like if I was my boss who had made such a stmt then I would have barked, 'is it any wonder? its a natural effect of the workload you give me and the stress it creats. I think I should go on a 2 months break' Or at least would try to pull hair off the comenter's head and then say'Now even yours is' if I couldn't come up with an instant repartee. The reason that D's comment shocked me was not the comment but the person it was coming from. And you have to see D to understand my sentiments here. Not that I'm any ash myself(although my nickname and ms id) and yeah yeah I hear you'Beauty is only skin deep'. But in this age of self grooming and not just dress up or make up for the occasion but shoe, bag, pen, shades etc for the occasion day and age, all people, high and low, wide and narrow, should know about deodorants. Let me any which try to create an image of D. Imagine the weight of 175 pounds on a person who stands only 5'5' tall. Imagine skin the darkest shade of brown and curly hair. and then add spectacles(not those cute rimless or trendy ones) and then add oodles of smell. There I can see you wrinkling your nose and getting a pang of sympathy for me.
Well luckily for me this bad event of life coincided with me coming cross and ad of Himalaya hair loss cream. I thought, well what the heck let me give it a try. I skeptically picked up the smallest pack available, and it cost me a grand 543 bucks. not the cream. that was only Rs 185 for a 50 gm packing. but the other Himalaya stuff I picked up while I was having a go at improving hair, why should the skin etc be neglected. It comes in a form of tube and its an ochur yellow creamy substance. Doesn't have a nice smell. You are supposed to gently massage it onto the scalp. If you want to stop the hair fall you are supposed to use it for two months and if you want to grow new hair then use it for at least 6 months. So said the sales women in the shop.
She also aksed me if my hair loss was actually hair loss because she said that abt 50-60 hair falling a day is natural. The hair has a growth cylce blah blah. I tried counting my falling hair for a few days after this but gave it up pretty soon. Try it yourself rather than asking me about why I stopped.
Anyways I gave my fingers some exercise every night and sincerely have been using it for 2 months now, but sad to tell all beauty_products_are_miraculous believers that I dont see any improvement. I should have actually kept up the counting to make you'll believe, that if anything it is falling more now.
If any of you know, know of any products that work as they promise for hair fall, please please please please enlighten me.
