I am 17 years old, and have extremely dry hair. I was wondering if using a conditioner would help. — Riaana

You can apply almond milk to the hair and scalp, which nourishes them. Leave it on for an hour and rinse. It will not only make your hair soft and smooth, but it will also condition. Yes, with your hair type, a conditioner will be required, but if you use almond milk, you don’t need to get one.


I have been suffering from vitamin deficiency for a while now, and to fix that, I have been spending a lot of time in the sun since the past six months. Due to that, my previously fair skin now has dark patches and spots, especially on my face and neck. I have tried potato juice to lighten them, but it is not working. Please suggest a remedy for this issue, and also tips on how I can get the requisite sun exposure without harming myself. — Rohini

Make a mask with aloe vera gel, tomato puree and corn flour. Apply this mask daily for an hour. This mask will help lighten the skin. If you want to continue sunbathing, I suggest you go early morning.


I am a 30-year-old woman with two kids, who were both delivered via C-sections. I’ve had hormonal problems ever since I was a teenager, but even then, I didn’t get any acne on my face, but now I seem to be breaking out like crazy, and have lots of dark spots too. I have consulted a dermatologist and applied many creams, but in vain. I am requesting you to kindly suggest an effective remedy.— Kusuma

Make a paste with 1 tablespoon tomato juice, half a teaspoon of honey, and 
cinnamon powder. Ensure you apply this mix daily, rinse with cold milk, and 
follow with cold water. You can also safely apply this twice a day.

I have diabetes, and a severe hair fall problem. My scalp is very visible, so I request you to please suggest a remedy that will help me grow back my hair really fast. — Sana

I suggest you massage your scalp with almond and castor oil thrice a week. This will help activate the circulation, and you will see the difference in the quality of your hair as well.

I am a 17-year-old, and I have tanned a lot, especially on my arms and face. The rest of my body is very fair. Also, my upper lip has become slightly darker ever since I started threading, and I wanted to ask you what is the best hair removal technique for my upper lip, arms and legs. Please help! — Maha

Make a mask with 1teaspoon honey, 1tablespoon tomato puree, and an equal mix of oats and rice powder. 
Apply this daily, and scrub gently once the pack has dried. As far as hair rem-oval techniques are concerned, waxing is the best in my opinion.
