Letter from a friend...


Few days ago, I got a call from my old friend who used to study with me in school and was a very good friend. We became pen friends after she left for a different city. We talked for hours laughing at all the silly letters we wrote to each other. We used to share our photos with each other showing our new toys and new books in those postal exchanges. Sometimes, we even shared newspaper cutouts showing what we want to try next- I once sent her a cutout of some cream biscuit brand I badly wanted to try!
We just said it almost at once- Lets write back again!
Excited about the idea of writing through postal exchanges again, I went to the photo-studio after what seemed like ages and asked the guy to customize a postcard for me with a photo. That was from my birthday when I was 10. Sounds old right? But that was the only picture I had of hers. I wanted to write to her on that custom postcard.
She received it and was delighted, while I patiently waited for hers to arrive. I came home to this huge A4 size envelope. God! I couldn’t be more happy, thinking of all the things it contained. I opened it and saw my poster size photo from the blog - Khoobsurat moments. She signed below, FRAME IT!
P.S : I also want khoobsurat hair like you, coloring my hair with casting crème gloss tomorrow .Your Khoobsurat friend, xxxx.

Khoobsurat moment # 4: Taming the Bird’s Nest


What is a fashion-blogger’s life like? 

Ideating/writing/blogger meets/shoots/events .These 4 words pretty much sum it all. No matter how glossy it seems because of the various Front-page & page-3 events we mark our presence with, it is equally stressful.
On weekdays, after-work hours generally end in events hosted by various brands. Last Friday, I was invited to style myself for a stylish event and it was post 6pm. I took a phantom rickshaw ride to the place which was about an hour away. Yea, and you thought we always get pick-up drops!!!
By the time I reached, the rickshaw guy had almost killed me with his amazing braking skills at the speed of 100km/hr on 100 meter stretches! I got out of the phantom ride with hair looking like they were planted on my head by pigeons while I was cooking that famed Birbal’s khichdi for hours outdoors.
I walked in without caring how I looked, as if that was the latest hair trend I drank some water ,filled my tummy with hours de vours and styled myself in my favorite Pakshi dress which had sparrow prints on it. While in the trial room, I brushed my hair with patience & love. They were tamed to my surprise in 5 mins. No gel used!
When I came out for the shoot, the first thing the photographer told me, “I can’t believe you fixed that nest on your head inside the trial room! My God, was there some magic wand to make your hair look so bouncy?”
I felt amazing because it came from Bollywood paparazzo, who takes pictures of all Bollywood celebs at various events. Yet another #KhoobsuratMoment. While I happily posed for the shutterbugs, I quietly thanked L’Oreal Paris for having me try the Casting Crème Gloss . You have given me gorgeous moments!!!

No Bad hair days, Welcome #Khoobsurat hair


Hello Guys!

The weekend was spent writing hours and hours for the blog. I was compiling the wonderful moments from my trip to Vienna, Austria last year. I remember how on the 2nd day of my trip I had a bad hair day, thanks to the chilly weather , (5 degrees!!! ) and no hair dryer! My hair doesn't stand more than 2 days after hair wash. It turns oily and sticky. I felt almost dejected that my photographs wouldn't turn out well and my travel journal would look crappy! And it did! Bleh!

Yesterday, I was suddenly invited to an event and I was an hour away from it!
It was like a de ja vu! I was disappointed as I hadn't washed my hair for 2 days. I looked into the mirror. And I looked into the mirror again. I ruffled my hair in disbelief. Who would believe my hair were as behaved as the day I washed them? Its the humid Mumbai weather and the hair looks happy and shiny! Not sticky!

Ok. Miracles do happen. I breathed a sigh of relief. Did a little happy jig. Combed my hair and put on the moist mat lippie. The Casting Creme Gloss from L'oreal Paris has done the trick. Where were you all these days?

Goodmorning #Khoobsurat Hair ft. Morning Jogs



 I have a love-hate relationship with workouts. Love because it makes me happy +energized+ confident +proud. Hate because I dread waking up early in the mornings . The only incentive is a lot of beauty around ,like those full bloom lotus in the pond. I have always had this fascination for Lotus flowers. They are indeed grand as shown in religious paintings. They almost distract me. I have never passed a lotus in full bloom without clicking it. Do you like Lotus too?


Workouts mean you need to fix your hair so they don't fall all over your face while you exercise. I tie a high pony whenever I go walking, running or at home doing yoga/aerobics. The hair would look so limp when tied up in a pony. You know that awful feeling when your pony looks like a handful strands of hair. Sigh! Sometimes I did not even tie a pony and do my jogging in untied hair just because the hair lacked volume.

Last week when I tied my hair, I loved the feeling of bouncy hair as I warmed up after a morning walk. I love how my hair feels now! True to its promise, L’Oreal Paris casting crème gloss has made my hair look healthy. I have started taking more care naturally as I want this feeling to stay! I am pleasantly surprised of the outcomes this hair coloring has brought in. Little did I know, my morning workouts would become my #khoobsurat moments. Goodmorning Good hair !
  
P.S I enjoy doing the side to side waist moves even more now :P

My Khoobsurat moment: Those magical hair

"I have always dreamt , that one day I will wake up to hair as long as Rapunzel. It is a fact that scientifically, every person can have only a certain maximum hair-length. Sigh! I can never see Rapunzel like hair happening for me! But, what if the hair just bounce & shine with health?
Isn't healthy hair are as good as long hair? Who likes to see their hair dull,dry and frizzy! When I took the #SayYesToColor challenge last week, little did I know that I will wake up to naturally glossy hair. I got excellent grey coverage and that subtle hint of color & when I looked into the mirror I wanted to rush for selfies. I played with the sunshine to see that natural black cherry tint showing its beauty on my hair . The results of L'Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss has got me my KHOOBSURAT moment! I have become a Hair-fee addict! And I just cant help looking at my hair especially when yellow light falls on them highlighting the shade. Beauty is in subtlety .Its not loud. Its there and you know it! To top it all I did this all at home without actually visiting a stylist at a salon.See the video here. I am glad how the pictures have turned out. Happiness shows right? Nik is getting better behind the camera :)

How to Color your hair - Black Cherry

                                     *WATCH this video only in HD,select 720p or more*

Are you surprised?

Remember my last post , where I told you about hair coloring as the latest trend?  I can't believe I have colored my hair too! A glossy black cherry tint with the Loreal Casting Creme gloss with no AMMONIA!

No strange odours, only glossy cherry tint in my hair. It was so easy I did it myself at home. Another first for me was the VLOG. Yes, this is my first ever Youtube video! And I shot it all by myself with the camera adjusted on a pressure cooker in the kitchen area.Lol. I had so much fun recording and editing this. It just took 20 minutes!

 HOW DID I PREPARE MYSELF?

 1. I watched a LIVE tutorial on L'oreal youtube page to prepare myself for this and then shot my entire color process :)

2.  I spoke to many friends who have colored their hair over the years.

3. I read many reviews online for the L'oreal casting creme gloss.

I took the plunge after much research, only after I was convinced! L'oreal casting creme gloss helps cover greys .If you just want a nice change, then this is for you! It doesn't dry your hair.


Take a 7minute break and watch the LIVE tutorial of coloring the hair with L'oreal casting creme gloss.

P.S : A few hilarious things happened during the filming of this video. I have removed those scenes and will be sharing the bloopers later!  Also, I would love your candid feedback on my first video. Thanks a lot in advance.
