Afrin Herbal is an improved product containing more herbs of nature. Afrin Herbal Shampoo based mehandi is one step ahead i.e. it is shampoo based easy to wash and leave soft and silky hair (conditioning of hair)

A. Mehandi Cone can be kept for 3 months under Refrigeration and for 15 days without refrigerator. There is no difference in Colour either used on the same day or after 3 months.
Q. My boyfriend always complains that he can't get his fingers through my hair. How can I get touchable tresses ?
A. The first thing you should do is have your stylist trim any snarl producing split ends. If your locks continue to get knotty, then product buildup could be to blame. "Residue from stylers can create a layer of gunk on your hair, which causes knots and tangles". To purge your hair of excess product, use a clarifying shampoo (in place of your regular shampoo) once a week. Another possible tress-tangling terror: dry, damaged hair. "Dry and rough cuticles snarl easily. Use a hot-oil treatment to replenish lost moisture and seal cuticles".
Q. Since my hair is super dry, I thought it would be a good idea to use a deep conditioner every day. Isn't it better than a regular formula ?
A. Deep conditioners pack a powerful punch because they contain high concentrations of hydrating ingredients that really penetrate the hair shaft. "Daily formulas usually just stick to the surface of the hair, providing instant results but no long-term benefits." Unless your locks are seriously dried out, you should use a deep treatment only once a week to avoid gunky buildup. However, if your tresses are super parched, it is suggested that using a deep conditioner once a day for three days, then alternating a deep conditioner with a daily product for a week.
Q. Could my deep conditioner be drying out my hair? I use it three times a week, and my hair feels like straw ?
A. Your hair probably isn't suffering from a lack of moisture but rather a buildup of the proteins that are found in many deep conditioners. "Proteins help make hair stronger, but they can give it a rough texture if they are overused". You should pay attention to which type of deep conditioner you've been applying: Strengthening formulas are packed with the most protein and should be used once a week at most.
Q. Help! I have a cowlick on my hairline. How can I get it to behave ?
A. It's easy to tame that unruly tuft of hair One option is to aim a blow dryer at the root area while using a brush to coax your loco lock into an attractive position (keep holding it down until it cools). Or try subduing disorderly strands with a small straightening iron. Once your cowlick is under control, keep it in place with an extra-hold hair spray
Q. My hair is fried from the sun. Any tips ?
A. If summer fun has wreaked havoc on the health of your hair, pamper your tresses back to their prime with this daily at-home conditioning routine suggested. Mix equal parts of a scalp-soothing mint-oil conditioner and a shampoo made for your hair type. Suds up with this mane-moisturizing concoction, and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a deep conditioner, rubbing the ends of your hair as you let it soak in for a few minutes. Rinse, and apply a leave-in conditioner with sunscreen to shield your strands from do-damaging UV rays.
Q.

I hate when I go to a haircutter and he makes me feel like I don't have a clue and just does whatever he wants. How can I take control of the situation without being rude ?
A. Most salons offer free consultations in which you can sit and talk to the stylist to discuss what you want with no commitment. This is a good opportunity to get to know the personality of the cutter and how he or she responds to your ideas and needs. Also, always bring photos to use as visuals and specify exactly what you like about the look. This will give the stylist a clear vision of what you have in mind and also show him or her that you're serious about a specific cut and aren't a pushover. "Professional stylists expect their clients to speak up. You are paying for a service and should leave happy and looking great".
Q. Is it damaging to wear your hair in a ponytail everyday? I do, and when I take out the elastic, there are always some hairs wrapped up in it.
A. We also love the easy elegance of a ponytail, but unfortunately, your suspicions are right: Tying your hair back every single day can be damaging to your locks. To keep this style from causing breakage, follow these two rules. First, always use bands that are covered with a fabric like silk or cotton (never use rubber or plastic) and that don't have any hair-snagging metal pieces. Second, spritz a light silicone spray over your tresses before you put your hair up, so your locks will glide against the band without splitting.
Q. My stylist cut too many layers into my hair, and I hate the way it looks. Is there any way to make it look better while it's growing out ?
A. Layers can be tricky to hide, because they are usually in the front of your head and a noticeable detail to your do. The best way to camouflage a too choppy coif is to cut a few inches off the bottom. This will minimize the layers and create a fuller style. Don't want to lose length? You can fake a less layered style by making the ends appear thicker. Use a heavy deep conditioner to flatten curly or thick hair and give the illusion of more weight at the bottom of your locks
Q. I've heard you're not supposed to hold the dryer superclose to your hair, but whenever I get my hair blown out, my stylist puts the nozzle right up to my strands. What's the deal ?
A. Since your mane man is standing above you when styling your locks, it's very easy for him to keep the dryer constantly moving from the roots to the ends of your hair, which is the trick to preventing the dryer from scorching it. This quick motion is nearly impossible to achieve on your own (especially in the back of your head), so if you hold the dryer too close to your strands, it can be damaging. However, if the heat your stylist is using is so strong that you're in pain, you need to speak up and tell him to cool it (you shouldn't suffer that much for beauty). When blowing your own strands, be sure to keep your dryer an inch or so away to avoid heat hazards.
Q. How can I freshen up my 'do after a workout? It's too cold to wash and go ?
A. A sweat session need not be followed by a time-sucking shampoo-and-styling ordeal. If you're sporting straight hair, refresh strands by slowly blow-drying from roots to ends using a paddle brush. Then rub a dab of a light pomade between palms and smooth hands over hair.
Q. I'm tired of dealing with my highlights and want to try a darker color this winter, but I'm worried I'll look pasty. How can I prevent that ?
A. Darker doesn't have to mean a boring, flat shade that emphasizes pale skin. To winterize your current mane, use an at-home semi-permanent hair color in a warm golden shade that's similar to your natural hue. This will make the streaked sections look darker and the other strands look richer. "The effect will be very warm and multidimensional, so it won't play up paleness".
Q. My hair color looks really dull, but I can't afford salon highlights. What's the best way to do them at home ?
A. DIY highlighting kits are easier than ever to use, so you don't have to spend big bucks to score stunning streaks. We especially like kits that contain a plastic comb to "paint" on the highlights. Before you start, thoroughly brush your hair so the comb can glide evenly through your strands. It's also a good idea to run the comb through your hair a few times without the formula on it to get the feel of the motion. When you're ready to do it for real, place the comb at the root and run it down your hair in one fluid motion. "If you hit a snag, don't go back and try to fix it since you'll just end up botching it." "Besides, it looks more natural when the streaks aren't too perfect." Repeat the process on a few pieces around your face. If you're not thrilled with the results, don't freak out. "It takes color about a week to oxidize and tone down"
Q. I lightened my brown hair but want my natural color back. Can I darken it with an at-home color kit ?
A. It's not as easy as slapping on some brown dye, but with these pointers, you can get your natural color back. When you bleach your tresses, you strip away the rainbow of tones (bits of red, yellow and blue) that make up a rich brown hair hue. So you have to put those colors back in to re-create the vibrancy. To do this, pick out a semipermanent hair-color kit in a warm brown shade (look for the word golden in the shade name). Let the dye process for as long as the directions indicate, then rinse out. After your hair dries, apply another semipermanent dye that matches your roots exactly. This should bring you back to your beautiful natural hue.
Q. I feel bad when I don't buy the products that my hairstylist recommends from his salon. Am I supposed to make a purchase on my way out ?
A. If you trust your tress tamer, it's probably worthwhile to listen to his product preferences since he knows your hair almost as well as you do, but don't feel obliged to buy. "Your stylist knows your hair and what's best for you, so he can match you up with the right stuff. If you don't like the salon prescription or find it too costly, decline politely and ask your stylist if he can recommend a store-bought brand.
Q. Now that it's cold out, I can't air-dry my hair, but my stylist told me not to blow-dry it every day because I'll damage it. What should I do ?
A. Unless you work at a construction site, it is probably unnecessary for you to wash and blow-dry your strands every day. "You need to shampoo daily only if your hair is very oily," says Boston hairstylist Mario Russo. To make sure your style lasts more than one day, brush it before you go to bed and don't wear any tight hair elastics or clips while sleeping. When you shower in the morning, wear a tight shower cap Then spritz your scalp with a mist designed to absorb excess oils so your hair will look freshly washed. To minimize damage when you do decide to blow-dry, always spray on a heat-protecting styler before you begin and hold the hair dryer four to five inches away from your head.
Q. I'm an African-American with relaxed shoulder-length hair. I want to grow it longer, but it's very damaged. Any tips ?
A. The chemicals used to relax kinky locks can leave them brittle and sapped of moisture, which can lead to split ends and breakage, making it a challenge to grow them out. To nurse your hair back to health and keep it strong. First, be sure to use a gentle hydrating shampoo that won't strip away your hair's natural oils. Follow with a thick, creamy conditioner to boost your strands' strength and help seal split ends. Too much heat from a blow-dryer, curling iron or straightening iron will hurt your fragile tresses even more, so always apply a protective styling cream first. Check out Pantene Pro-V Relaxed and Natural Daily Oil Cream Moisturizer, $4. Finally, even though you're trying to grow out your hair, it's important to get a trim every four to six weeks to keep any dead ends from splitting all the way up your hair shaft
Q. I want highlights but I can't afford to go to a salon. Are the at-home kits really easy to use ?
A.

Don't fear store-bought kits. The latest formulations give good results and are hard to goof up. Here are do-it-yourself tips.

· First, be sure to buy a kit that'll deliver the results you crave. For a subtle sun-kissed effect, pick a package that has two different colors. For more noticeable scattered streaks, use a one-hue kit with a perforated cap through which you pull sections you want to lighten.

· Wash your hair no less than a day before so your scalp will be protected from irritating chemicals by natural oils.

· Brush your hair into your usual style so you can see exactly where you want highlights. The most natural-looking places are on your bangs, the top of your crown, and around the sides of your face.

· Once your strands are painted, you'll need to wait for the color to develop. Most formulas take about 15 to 30 minutes, but if you're dying to check it, squeeze out the cream from a small section on the ends to see if your strands are light enough.
Q. I need to buy a new blow-dryer, and I'm confused by all the options. Are there any special features I should look for ?
A. Achieving a "fresh from the salon" blowout at home is much easier if you have a good dryer. "Certain features in a blow-dryer can make the job 100 times easier for you." First, choose one with a wattage of about 1,600 -- some run as high as 2,000 watts, but 1,600 is a perfectly adequate strength. Next, metal dryers are heavy and can get too hot to handle, so you'll want to pick an easy-to-wield plastic one. Look for a long nose, which allows you to direct the heat better than a short one would, and a nozzle attachment, which concentrates the air, helping you hit hard-to-reach coif targets. You'll need two heat settings, hot and warm, as well as a cool-shot button. While hot air softens the hair, allowing you to shape it more easily, cold air helps set the style by closing off the cuticle.
Q. After lots of p.m. action, I get nasty knots in my hair. How can I prevent a next-day rat's nest ?
A. To ward off a lover's knot in your locks, you first need to make sure your mane is well-conditioned and free of product buildup. Use a moisturizing conditioner daily and wash with a clarifying shampoo once a week to strip your strands of gunk. The night of your predicted passion play, apply a small amount of detangling leave-in conditioner that's formulated for use on dry hair. Run a natural-bristle brush through your hair until it's soft and snag-free, again focusing on the bottom layers of your hair. Also go for top-quality cotton pillowcases with a high thread count -- the smooth texture allows your strands to slide across the fabric without catching on it. Now you, your man and your mane are ready for a raucous roll in the hay.
Q. My roots are starting to show, but I don't want to spend money for a salon fix. Can I touch them up with a DIY color kit ?
A. To freshen up a salon dye job at home, when picking out a hair color at the drugstore, decide on your desired color, then find a tone that's one shade lighter on the box, since these formulas tend to dye hair darker than promised. To apply the dye, mix the color and developer together as directed, then pour it into a plastic or ceramic bowl (metal could change the shade). Using a color brush (ask for one at a beauty-supply store), apply the solution to your roots. Let it sit for the amount of time dictated by the directions, then comb it through to the ends and wait another five minutes before washing it out. To touch up your highlights, use the brush to paint the roots of only the lightened pieces. Although drugstore brands will get the job done, most colorists will give regular clients a solution to use at home between visits. So next time you hit the salon, ask to take home a bottle of color for touch-ups.
Q. Help! The stylist cut my hair shorter than I wanted! How can I tweak it until it grows out ?
A.

"Hair grows about half an inch per month. In the meantime, disguise your do with accessories and styling products."

· If your bangs went from long to supershort, the best solution is to sweep the barely there fringe to either the right or left side of your forehead, then secure it with a decorative bobby pin.

· If you wanted long, sexy layers but your stylist gave you short, chunky ones, experiment with different styling products to create an edgy effect. To do, distribute a dime-size amount of texturizing cream to damp hair, then blow-dry using your hands to tousle your mane.

· If you asked for a shoulder-length bob but walked out with hair that barely grazes your chin, go for a superchic, slicked-back do. Just rub a dime-size dab of gel between palms, then rake hands through hair, slicking all of it behind your ears and against the nape of your neck.

Q. My guy wears so much gunk in his hair, it looks shiny and feels tacky. What should I tell him to do differently ?
A. If your man's strand style is straight out of The Sopranos, you need to come to his hairdo rescue. Men often glob a lot of gel into their manes and then fuggedaboutit. "He should squirt only a quarter-size amount of gel or mousse in his palm, rub his hands together, then massage it into his hair." It is also suggests that you get your guy to swap his gel for a matte wax that will give hair hold with a shine-free finish.
