A good hair day!!

Well, today was that rare occasion when I experienced a good hair day!

You may wonder, "So? What's the big deal?"

It is a big deal for me because I face this recurrent problem of my hair looking bad almost everytime I wash them.

Sometimes they look too dry because probably more shampoo was used, sometimes somewhat oily because the oil did not get washed off completely, and other times, lacklustre because the conditioner did not get properly washed off.

Having heard my habitual complaint of a bad hair day, a close friend of mine once wondered, how can I not figure out the right amount of shampoo and conditioner which would make them look perfect, even after so many years of washing them regularly? She was actually right. But still, the problem exists.

The moral of the story : I am always unhappy about my hair.

Now coming back to the point. My hair looked good today. They felt really soft and the texture healthy. They played with each other, sang songs, looked proudly silky. They came across as a bunch of happily cleaned hair.

How did this miracle take place? Well, If I knew that, I wouldn't be writing this post.

It just happened. and I got the confirmation of my feeling just as I went out to give a few clothes to get ironed from across my apartment. There I met my neighbour, about my age, who complimented me on my haircut. "Did u get your hair cut today or something? They are looking very nice". Wow, I felt proud. I walked to the Istriwala (the person who irons clothes!) tossing the most beautiful hair in the world.

I then remembered that I did not use my expensive L'Oreal shampoo today. My mother told me in the morning that some of the shampoo which she diluted by adding water is left usused in a bowl in the bathroom. She requested me to use it and finish it else the bowl will remain there as it is till she washed her hair next.

My mother is not someone who would waste money on branded shampoos. Obviously, she is not interested in her hair and their moods at all. So she uses any shampoo that is available at home. These days she is using an unknown brand of shampoo which came free with some other product at the supermarket.

I gave it a thought. Should I use that unbranded shampoo or not?

I did not have to go anywhere today so might as well make her happy and finish her leftover shampoo. I decided. And of course, I was going to use my L'Oreal conditioner over it. So no problem.

And when I least expected my hair to look shiney n bouncy, they did.

So was it that unknown brand of shampoo or was it just the perfect amount of shampoo and conditioner by fluke?

I really can't tell until I get the same result next time!

Till then, I can enjoy my GOOD hair day!
