Effect of Holi on Skin and Hairs

From among all the festivals of India, Holi is the most exciting and colorful festival. In fact, Holi is the symbol of colors, often called as festival of colors. In past times, this festival was celebrated by producing natural colors with the help of natural flowers and many household ingredients. With the modernization on the peak, people in greed produces so called now holi colors by mixing various chemicals. Basically chemical colors have a negative effect on people as they are chemically made. This negative effect is in form of skin rashes and allergies, eye redness, dry hair, breathing problems etc. Asiding all these effects, people of India cannot afford to miss the occasion of merrymaking with colors. So we play the festival of Holi in a great sense and with a great sense of freedom too. To make this Holi unforgettable and safe, one should take some serious precautions and measures. here are some hair care and skin care tips for a safe and joyful Holi this year:
  1. Applying lotions and oils before playing Holi: First and foremost step before playing Holi is to make up first shield that is wearing comfortable clothes. Wear those clothes that covers your maximum body. Make sure that your cloths are made up of cotton as cotton clothes absorbs most. Apply some greasepaint oils and lotions. Best oily liquid can either be coconut oil or mustard oil. Spread it all over the exposed body as well as the unexposed body for better protection. Now i'm going to surprise you by saying that females should apply nail polish to protect there nails. For face, apply petroleum jelly such as Vaseline inside ears, behind ears, on lips, and all over face. One should be very particular and secure of her ears, as ears are the only part where color gets stuck. For hairs, apply hair oil that can either be coconut oil or mustard oil. Oily liquid forms a protective layer on one's skin and hair that prevents the color from going deep into the skin or hair roots. After applying oil, apply sunscreen lotion rating hpf15, this will prevent UV rays. The combination of UV rays with chemical colors is very hazardous.

  2. More usage of Herbal Colors: As everyone is well informed about the use of only the herbal colors, but here what i'm going to describe is something you'll find very useful.

However, you can buy a lot of herbal colors and offer to play with them only. Natural herbal colors cost more but they save grands of cash spend on Dermatologist and other medical procedures. Genuine herbal colors have there own properties that they are soft, one must it like a talc or refined flour and not grainy or grity. One can also make natural colors at home by natural ingredients.

  3. Gently Removing of Holi Colors: First try to remove the dry colors by rubbing your hand against the body parts.

Wash off hair first with plain water so that most of the color so that most of the color comes of easily and gently. After this use soft that is a mild conditioning shampoo so that the color stuck in  between hairs could wash out. Removing color won't be a tough job if you have followed the 1st point of this post.
