Home remedies and homemade products for face, body and hair

Hello,
Can anyone suggest a remedy for removing the black lines from the neck. i have pretty much tried using a mud pack and nothing. really appreciate your help.

Hi kavitha,
My mon said that me and my sisters I used to have such a thick hair that we got "jadais".
My husband also seems to have had good hair when he was little. This is what really bothers me. We have to wait and see.

Hello Anandi,

My daughter is 2 +. When she was born, she did not have much hair. Around 11 months, her hair was much better. But, after mottai, upto 6 months or so, she did not grow up more hair. Whoever we saw, everyone asked us whether we put the mottai then!!

A couple of months back, we took her to salon and trimmed her hair; then, unbelievably, her hair has started growing. So, instead of shaving the hair completely(am not sure whether it is good or not),keep trimming her hair every 20 days or so which might help, guess. Though the kid does not get a very strong lengthy, atleast, you will find a noticeable difference which I saw with my friend's daughter.

Bye.

Hello Indu,

today, I was sorting my \shelves and found this tip from the files for grey hair.

Dry fry curry leaves and take it daily with butter milk which will help to reduce grey hair.

good luck.

Thanks R.
I have to wait for some more days because my daughter's hair is so short that it cant be trimmed now. Let;s wait and see how it grows.

Friends,
This is a problem with my friend's daughter-
her daughter is 3+ months. she had rashes all over her body when she was born and very soon she got infant acne and now for a long time she been having atopic dermititis(eczema) all over her body so much that the docter refused to do a skin test for her because she does not have any part of her body healthy...
now she said she has to apply some steroid cream and etc...for that..
I read in so many articles that the steroid cream has a lot of side effects(bad).

Please suggest some home made remedy/natural remedy for her.
I read somewhere that coconut oil is very good for eczema and also applying combination of carrot juice and spinach juice to the affected area is good..is it true...

I think she also said that her daughter is allergic to protein, wheat etc..

Ur responses would be appreciated...

Hello people,
Please respond to my above query...

Thanks,

Hi Napolims,
Sometime back, when my daughter was having rashes (due to some insect bites), one of my friends told that it is best to apply "kokam"-she didnt know the English word for it and we have not heard of this word-so I could not apply it though I was desperate. So any of the North Indians here must be knowing what it is and they can help. But the friend said that it has v good healiing properties and it is red in color.

I know what kokum is....but i do not know what is it known in english..Its a sour fruit...the peel is dried and used in cooking, I have seen it in dry form though i have never seen the fresh kokum in my life.

Thanks for ur info...
I'll let my friend know about this tip.

Please post ur reponse here if u come across something else regarding this problem..

As mentioned in the introduction, kokum’s refrigerant properties are well known. It is useful as an infusion, or by direct application, in skin ailments such as rashes caused by allergies. Kokum butter is an emollient helpful in the treatment of burns, scalds and chaffed skin. The fruits are steeped in sugar syrup to make amrutkokum which is drunk to relieve sunstroke.
