How to get Straight-Wavy Look at Home

Most of the times we resort to straight or curly hair when we want to try something different. Today’s post is about shaking things up a little and trying out the half-half look because when it comes to personal style, I like my hair half straight and half wavy.



To make your hair a tad wavy, you do not need a curling iron.I’ll show you how — in an easy-to-follow, 5 steps tutorial, how to create this look at home.

Step 1: Work with little moist hair (not wet) and untangle  your hair with a comb.
Step 2: Divide your hair into different sections**
Step 3: Braid one section of your hair and secure it with an elastic band. Repeat it for the remaining sections.
Step 4: Let your hair dry completely and undo all the braids.
Step 5 (Optional) : Apply hair-spray if you want to keep the waves for long.

Tips: 
# The sections should be equal.
#  For half straight and half wavy look, start your braids a few inches lower exactly where you need them.
# The longer you leave your hair, the more prominent the waves are.
#  The more braids/the tighter they are, the wavier your hair gets.
#  If you can sleep with the braids then leave them overnight for better results.

मॉनसून में सेहत में लाएं बहार

मॉनसून में सेहत में लाएं बहार

मॉनसून में सेहत में लाएं बहार

मानसून अपनी दस्तक दे चुका है जिसके चलते स्वास्थ्य संबंधी कई समस्याएं पैदा हो जाती हैं। इसलिए जरूरी है कि इस मौसम के दौरान खानपान पर समुचित ध्यान दिया जाए। बारिश के सीजन में बैक्टीरिया और विभिन्न प्रकार के वाइरस खाद्य पदार्र्थो को संक्रमित कर देते हैं। इस कारण कई बीमारियां सिर उठाने लगती हैं। इसलिए बीमारी से बचने के लिए प्रत्येक व्यक्ति को इस मौसम में खानपान के संदर्भ में समुचित जानकारी होनी चाहिए।

मॉनसून में बीमारियों में सबसे ज्यादा प्रभावित करने वाली बीमारी है गैस्ट्रोइंटेराइटिस। यह बीमारी प्रदूषित पानी के कारण होती है। इसका दूसरा बड़ा कारण है अनहाइजीनिक तरीके से खाद्य पदार्र्थो को रखना। इस दौरान बाजार में मिलने वाले खाद्य पदार्थ खासतौर पर जो खुले में रखे हों, उनसे परहेज करें, क्योंकि इन पदार्र्थो में मक्खियां मंडराती रहती हैं, जो संक्रमण का कारण बनती हैं। मौजूदा मौसम में आंतों में संक्रमण होने का भी खतरा रहता है।

इन बातों का रखें ख्याल

मेदांता हॉस्पिटल की सीनियर फिजीशियन डॉ. सुशीला कटारिया का कहना है कि मॉनसून के दौरान खानपान संबंधी कुछ जरूरी बातों का ध्यान रखे

ं

-अपने रोज के भोजन में दालों और अंकुरित अनाजों को शामिल करें। इन्हें चाट के रूप में, रोल के रूप में और सैंडविच में भरकर प्रयोग करें। इन खाद्य पदार्र्थो में बड़ी मात्रा में प्रोटीन पाया जाता है। इसके अलावा बाजार में मिलने वाली सब्जियों की तुलना में दालों और अंकुरित अनाजों से संक्रमण होने की आशंका काफी हद तक कम हो जाती है। दालों में प्रोटीन के अलावा फाइबर, कैल्शियम और आयरन भी पाया जाता है और जब इन्हें अंकुरित कर लिया जाता है तो इनसे मिलने वाले पोषक तत्व दोगुने हो जाते हैं।

-सब्जियों को पकाने से पहले अच्छी तरह साफ कर लें। इन्हें फ्रिज में रखने से पहले भी अच्छी तरह धोकर व सुखाकर रखें।

-अपने आहार में कड़वी सब्जियों जैसे करेला, ह‌र्ब्स जैसे कि मेथी के बीजों को भी शामिल करें। यह संक्रमण की रोकथाम में सहायक हैं।

- खाना उतना ही बनाएं जितना कि रोज प्रयोग हो जाए। ज्यादा खाना बनाकर फ्रिज में रखने से बचें। ताजा भोजन सेहत का अच्छा साथी होता है।

-आमतौर पर मॉनसून के मौसम में लोग स्वाभाविक तौर पर कम पानी पीते हैं, लेकिन यह बात याद रखें कि इस मौसम में मेटाबॉलिज्म के स्तर को बेहतर बनाए रखने के लिए पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पीना जरूरी है। इम्यून सिस्टम को मजबूत करने के लिए गुनगुने पानी में तुलसी की पत्तियां और जीरा डालकर पिएं।

- घर पर तैयार किए गए सब्जी के सूप में पर्याप्त मात्रा में पोषक तत्व पाए जाते हैं, जो इस मौसम में शरीर के लिए लाभप्रद होते हैं।

- सूप में लहसुन का पेस्ट या उसे कुचलकर मिलाएं। इससे शरीर की रोगों से लड़ने की क्षमता बढ़ जाती है।

द्य अपने खानपान में हाई फाइबर से युक्त अनाजों जैसे नचनी (रागी), ज्वार, बाजरा, क्विनोआ, दलिया, दरदरा गेहूं को प्रतिदिन के आहार में शामिल करें। इनसे खानपान में संतुष्टि प्राप्त होगी और बेवजह अड़ंग-बड़ंग नहीं खाया जाएगा।

- इस मौसम में ग्रीन टी का इस्तेमाल करना चाहिए। ग्रीन टी में भरपूर मात्रा में एंटीऑक्सीडेंट्स होते हैं, जो खांसी और सर्दी की रोकथाम में सहायक हैं।

Livestream your fashion code this racing season

With the racing season having kicked off in the city, the Pune racing enthusiasts seem geared up for the season ahead. While for the men it's all about the races, for the ladies, the fashion forecast (at the races) is definitely more important than the weather update. 

Till now the city's fashionistas have made a mark with their style in the city, but this time they have the chance to woo people online. And the livestreaming of the racing season will also give people who can't make it, a reason to celebrate as well. So as the camera pans through the social events hosted at the race course, we tell you what to expect at the races and how you can be a complete head turner online, too. 

It's all about colour
Hats, dresses, fascinators and trendy glares — they raise the fashion bar each time the ladies don them at the races. Delna Poonawalla, fashion designer and socialite, says, "It's all about colour. And this time, its colour blocking — that is a combination of two colours which compliments each other."
Jumpsuits and dresses are also quite popular this season. So try and avoid wearing jeans. You can also go in for monochrome as well as solid bold colours. For socialite Nicole Rutnagar, tailormade outfits compliment her body-type. Though she will be opting for a solid colour, she prefers going minimal on jewellery. 

Decoding the code
Considering that following a dress code is mandatory in certain areas at the race course, Vivek Jain, chairman of RWITC, shares, "The paddock area is where members and owners, among others, have to follow the dress code of a jacket or tie. It is visually a very important area, hence the dress code. The women can opt for western, Indian or casual." 

If you are not the experimental types, stick to the rule book that includes formals and semi-formals. So as the camera pans on you this racing season, make sure along with your fashion statement you don your million-dollar smile

इंटरव्यू के दौरान प्रभावशाली हो आपका पहनावा

हम यह नहीं कहते कि इंटरव्यू के दौरान अच्छे पहनावा ही बॉस को इम्प्रेस करने का एकमात्र तरीका है लेकिन अगर इंटरव्यू व आपके प्रोफाइल के हिसाब से आपका पहनावा सही हो तो आपका आत्मविश्वास आपके व्य‌क्तित्व से झलकेगा और आप प्रभावशाली लगेंगे। अगर आप भी अपने इंटरव्यू की तैयारी में जुटे हैं तो उस दिन आप क्या पहनेंगे यह तय करते वक्त इन बातों का ध्यान जरूर रखें।

आपके प्रोफाइल की क्या है मांग
इंटरव्यू के दौरान तैयार होते वक्त यह ध्यान रखें कि आप ‌किस प्रोफाइल के लिए इंटरव्यू दे रहे हैं। आप जिस नौकरी के लिए जा रहे हैं, आपके पहनावे से पता लगना चाहिए कि आप उस प्रोफाइल को सूट करते हैं। अगर आपकी कंपनी का वातावरण बिल्कुल फॉर्मल है तो आप अपना पहनावा क्लासिक फॉर्मल रखें लेकिन अगर माहौल कैजुअल है तो आप सेमी फॉर्मल ड्रेसिंग रखें।

प्रयोग से बचें
आपका कितना अच्छा ड्रेसिंग सेन्स क्यों न हो पर इंटरव्यू के समय किसी नए प्रयोग से बचना ही समझदारी है। क्यों? क्योंकि आप नहीं जानते हैं कि आपके बॉस पर आपके लुक्स का क्या प्रभाव पड़ सकता है। नौकरी के लिए आपके स्टाइल सेन्स की परख नहीं होगी बल्कि आपके काम की पूछ होगी। �

स्टाइलिश नहीं, अनुशासित लगें
आप जहां काम मांगने जा रहे हैं, वहां आपका पहनावा देखकर लगना चाहिए कि कि आप वहां काम करना चाहते हैं न कि पार्टी या मस्ती। आपकी गंभीरता और अनुशासन आपके व्यक्तित्व से दिखेगा तो आप अधिक प्रभावशाली लगेंगे। इस‌लिए कैजुअल टी-शर्ट, जीन्स, लो कट टॉप, हाई हील्स के बजाय साफ-सुथरे, अच्छे से प्रेस किए ऑफिस वेयर को ही तरजीह दें।

कहीं से कमी न दिखे
इंटरव्यू का मौका अपने बेस्ट दिखाने का मौका है। आप कितना भी अच्छा सूट पहनें लेकिन अगर जूते गंदे हैं तो सारी मेहनत बेकार। इसी तरह बाल, घड़ी, बैग आदि साफ और डीसेंट रखें। परफ्यूम ऐसा न हो कि सामने वाले का सिर चकराए और आपके कपड़े आरामदायक हों। आपका आत्मविश्वास आपके चेहरे से झलकेगा तभी आपके बॉस आप पर विश्वास कर सकेंगे।

सिर्फ एक रात में ऐसे पाएं पिंपल्स से छुटकारा

कल पार्टी में जाना है और आज ही चेहरे पर छोटा सा पिंपल निकल आया। किसी भी खास मौके पर हमारे लुक को खराब करने के लिए सिर्फ एक पिंपल ही काफी है। लेकिन आप क्यों परेशान हो रहे हैं? हमारे पास आपकी इस समस्या का ऐसा हल है जो रातोरात आपके पिंपल को दबाने में आपकी मदद करेगा। हम आपको कुछ ऐसे टिप्स की जानकारी दे रहे हैं जिनकी मदद से आप रात भर में पिंपल से छुटकारा पा सकेंगे।
�
सिरका
साइडर वेनेगर यानी सेब के रस का बना सिरका या व्हाइट वेनेगर मुंहासों को रात भर में सुखा देते हैं। रुई को सिरके में डुबोकर पिंपल पर लगाएं और सो जाएं, सुबह फर्क आपके सामने होगा।

टूथपेस्ट
सुनने में अटपटा लगता है लेकिन टूथपेस्ट (खासतौर पर मिट युक्त टूथपेस्ट) लगने से भी पिंपल दूर होता है। इसके लिए पहले पिंपल पर बर्फ की सेंक दें और इसके बाद सूखे कपड़े से पोछकर उपसपर 20 से 30 मिनट तक टूथपेस्ट लगाकर छोड़ दें। फिर पानी से साफ करें।

शहद और दालचीनी
दालचीनी को पीसकर शहद में मिलाएं और इसका फेस मास्क तैयार करें। इस मास्क को पिंपल्स पर लगाकर आधे घंटे छोड़ दें और फिर पानी से साफ करें। सुबह तक पिंपल्स दब जाएंगे।

लौंग और लहसुन
अगर आपको इनकी महक से परहेज नहीं है तो यह बहुत कारगर नुस्खा है। लौंग और लहसुन को पीसकर पेस्ट बनाएं और पिंपल्स पर लगाकर रात भर छोड़ दें। सुबह तक पिंपल्स का काम तमाम।

Get the right dancing shoes

Women's ballroom dance shoes usually have straps across the arch of the foot. A snug heel fit for extra support is ideal and the heel should be tightly strapped.

Heel height is limited to 3 inches for European dances (the waltz and foxtrot) and 2 inches for Latin dances (tango or rumba). Many womenchoose to wear closed toed shoes to protect their toes. Latin dancers typically wear open-toed shoes or strappy sandals. A good tip is not to ever wear your ballroom dance shoes on the street — the rough surface and dirt will wear them out quickly. Carry them in your bag and put them on when you get to class or to the ballroom. Black is the most popular for dance shoes but many women choose flesh-colored shoes, as they help extend the leg line. Suede soles are ideal as they provide the right combination of grip and slide. 'Character' shoes are medium weight, heeledshoes often used for jazz dancing.

Trend alert: Stiletto nails

 Trend alert: Stiletto nails

Trend alert: Stiletto nails

Make a fashion statement with nails that are long and pointed, just like your favourite heels.
Love it or hate it but you simply can't ignore it! We're talking about the edgy, but extremely sexy, stiletto nail trend, also popularly known as claw nails or talon nails. International celebs likeAdele, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Lana Del Rey have been spotted adorning their nails with this dramatic manicure. From subtly pointed to sharp dagger-like nails, you can now choose how witchy and mischievous you want to get. 
DO-IT-YOURSELF 

Things you need: A set of glue-on nails, scissors, a nail file, three different shades of nail polishes, a base and a top coat. How to get the look: Before you start, give yourself a manicure, ensure your nails are polish-free and the cuticles are pushed back. Apply a small drop of glue on the nail bed. Press on the nail, as close as possible to the cuticle. If the nail is long, file the corners until it fits. Snip the ends at a sharp angle. Smooth out the sides until the desired shape is achieved. Paint a base coat on your nail and then a nude polish over the entire nail. Near the tip, swipe on a gold polish in a 'V' shape. Add some red polish over the gold. Finally, add a top coat. 
WARNING 
Highly impractical, these sharp nails can cause injury. Also, extra care must be taken to keep them clean and hygienic.
 

Dark stripes make you look slim

Cheat stripes

Panels, patterns & cut-outs-fashion-forward stars are opting for innovative ways to flaunt that 'it' figure 

Out with the spanx! The latest in the slimming business is the dark stripe running down the side of your outfit. 

It's no rocket science but optical illusion and it has caught the fancy of Hollywood A-listers likeMiranda Kerr and Melanie Griffith. Such is the craze that a British retail chain has been compelled to launch a £16 version of a pair of beige denims with a black panel running down its sides. The advantage? Your legs look slimmer and elongated. The panels are cheekily used in problem areas like the obliques and inner thighs too — women's major gripes when it comes to their shapes. The gals ain't complaining! 

These dresses aren't something new. If Kate Winslet's red-hot Stella McCartney at the Carnage premiere in Paris rings a bell, that's exactly what we're talking about. She had earlier donned a white version of the illusion shift at the Venice Film Festival. If the dark panel is not up your alley, you can also camouflage your bulges in barber-pole stripes. Alternatively, patterns help create the illusion of curves where there are none. Ever wondered how pencil-thin celebs like Victoria Beckham andJennifer Aniston get away with it? Clever cut-outs at the right places also add meat to a thin frame and enhance those already blessed with killer S-curves. Check out Kim Kardashian's. A word of caution, though: Cut-outs are not for the faint-hearted, read, those with love handles! 

With optical illusion outfits getting a thumbs up from the stars, brace yourselves for dangerous curves (and hourglasses) ahead

Handy items for your beauty emergency kit

Handy items for your beauty emergency kit

Mishaps happen; and we believe in being prepared for any beauty calamity. Stock your vanity case with these handy items: 
Wet wipes
Most of us pull 10-12 hour shifts at work and travel another two hours to and fro. Hence, it makes sense to carry wet wipes. They are an instant pick-me-up for a tired face. You can also use them to clean unexpected stains on clothes as well as to sanitise surfaces. 
Earring Back/ screws
Losing the screws of earrings is a common grievance. Since you can't be wearing just one earring, it makes sense to go without them. Or go for the smarteroption of toting around extra screws or earring backs.
Lotion
Sitting in an air-conditioned office is bliss in humid weather. However, it wreaks havoc on your skin and hair. Keep a bottle of organic oil or lotion handy. Use it to tame frizzy hair, soften your hands and to moisturise your dry elbows and knees. 
Fragrance
Whether you are a perfume person, or prefer deodourants or body mists, travelling without fragrance in your kit is a cardinal sin. We live in hot and humid Mumbai, after all. Self-explanatory!
Safety pins
You never know when that rogue button on your blouse will give up. Safety pins are your saviour for emergencies like these
