Check out 16 Return-To-Work Programs In India For Ambitious Women Like You!
There are quite a few women sharing on social media their distress over not being able to go to the salon for their essential beauty care – so here are a few tips for you.
You, me and we are all now homebound at least till 15th April 2020. Together we are fighting against corona and hopefully we will win soon. Since we are hostages at home for some more days, on the one hand we are getting some more quality time with our families and on other hand we are facing some problems too.
Be it working women or homemaker women, not being able to go to a salon is indeed a problem – every woman I know goes to the salon at least once a month to buy herself some relaxing time away from the home and office chaos.
Social media also understands this but in a different way, and we have been sharing about it, and laughing at ourselves too. Hashtags like #noparlour and #nosalon are trending across social media platforms where this parlour problem has been given a humourous angle.

We can see how creative they are getting, and they’re fun memes.
But ladies, let’s get real. Here are some basic tricks you can use at home for that essential care. Make your kitchen your salon for these days – there are so many usual ingredients there that can be used as beauty products. Using easily available things like water, lemon, honey, turmeric, etc., you can solve this problem, that too, in an organic way!
And yes one thing to remember, that is a huge part of a beauty routine – just because everyone is at home, it does not mean that you take on the stress of doing all the work that needs to be done. Take a break periodically so that you can relax – ask your family members to help you in work as you’re not solely responsible to maintain your home. Like everyone else, you too have a right to enjoy these ‘staycation’.
Eyebrows are the most basic thing of your beauty regime. You may not be able to give them a proper shape but by using a thread or wax you can remove the extra hair to clean your eyebrows.
Watch this video to learn how to use thread or wax.
Second basic thing is upper lips, which also can be done at home easily by making wax from kitchen ingredients.
Don’t worry, making wax at home is very easy. Watch the video below for that. Let it get little less warm and apply it on you upper lips area. Keep it on for 5 minutes, and then like a face pack, peel it off. Work done.
Now comes manicures and pedicures. Do you have shampoo, lemon, salt and little baking soda? Of course you must be having them, as these are very basic things you can get at home. Mix a little of each of these in warm water, and soak your legs and hands in it for 15-20 mins. Rinse them with towel and then apply moisturizer.
Like I said, so easy and so available at home.
Here are some of beauty vlogs you can watch in your free time. These tell you about very basic and easy ways to solve your beauty problems, and that too by using home ingredients. Jsuper kaur, That glam couple Superstyletips Anaysa
Of course, the service at a parlour is more relaxing than home as you just have to sit there. But these things can help you out not just in your lockdown days, but also after these days. Learning these basic beauty tricks can hence be a productive way to spend these 20 days.
And if you can’t find the time for these, or aren’t comfortable doing these procedures yourself, maybe this lockdown can be an opportunity to start loving yourself the way you are, and stand up to those who might want to shame you.

People say that women are the greatest enemies of women. I vehemently disagree. It is the patriarchal mindset that makes women believe in the wrong ideology.
The entire world celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024. It should be a joyful day, but unfortunately, not all women are entitled to this privilege, as violence against women is at its peak. The experience of oppression pushes many women to choose freedom. As far as patriotism is concerned, feminism is not a cup of tea in this society.
What happens when a woman decides to stand up for herself? Does this world easily accept the decisions of women in this society? What inspires them to be free of the clutches of the oppression that women have faced for ages? Most of the time, women do not get the chance to decide for themselves. Their lives are always at the mercy of someone, which can be their parents, siblings, husband, or children.
In some cases, women do not feel the need to make any decisions. They are taught to obey the patriarchal system, which makes them believe that they are right. In my family, I was never taught to make decisions on my own. It was always my parents who bought dresses and all that I needed.
The local artisans excel in crafting beautiful fabrics, each piece telling a story of skill and tradition passed down through generations.
Textiles and handlooms of India embody the essence of the country’s rich cultural heritage and artistic diversity. Renowned worldwide for their quality, these textiles showcase intricate designs and vibrant colors, woven into fabric using traditional techniques passed down through generations. Each region offers its unique weave, from the fine silks of Varanasi to the block prints of Rajasthan and the exquisite handloom cottons of Bengal.
These textiles are not just pieces of cloth but art forms that tell stories of the land, its people, and their beliefs. The craftsmanship speaks of India’s dedication to preserving its ancestral arts, making Indian handlooms a testament to the country’s unparalleled legacy in textile artistry.
Raisen, a hidden gem in the state of Madhya Pradesh, is no different. Being a unique blend of historical charm and cultural richness, Raisen is well known for its tales of bygone eras. But it is also a cradle of traditional textiles and art.
