Shape Up In 4 Weeks

Is it about 4 weeks to your marriage anniversary? Are you cringing at the thought of your husband making a dig at that extra flab you have put on? But not only do you feel flabby, even your once smooth olive-toned skin looks rough and dry!

When you go shopping for a swimsuit, do you pick the most conservatively designed one in the shop? One that will hide most of the bulges you are so conscious of? Hw about a 4-week program to get trim and fit so you can get into that gorgeous electric blue affair with the diaphanous sarong your heart had longed for in the shopping arcade? Or that beautiful designer ivory lace sari you lusted for but left reluctantly because only an hour-glass figure could do justice to it and not the barrel you feel you have a closer resemblance to – wouldn’t you like to wear that with élan?

Myth: Plucking gray hair makes multiple gray hairs to appear

Plucking a gray strand will make multiple gray hairs to appear on your head. You might have heard this from several people. But it simply can't be true. If that were the case, old people would never go bald.

All they would have to do is pluck their gray strands out one by one, which would then be replaced by several others and soon they would have a lush head of gray hair. And since camouflaging it by coloring or dyeing isn't exactly a difficult job, everyone would be pulling their hairs out by the fist if they would need more hair.

It's just a silly myth that has been passed on from generation to generation.
