hygiene. It is your crowning glory. Nuns were required to cover
it. Orthodox Hindu widows were required to shave it.
Perhaps because a good head of hair can add that much
to sex appeal. If you are blessed with hair, it is easy
enough to maintain it. Keep it at a length and style at
which you can maintain it.

Wash your hair at least once a week using soap or mild


shampoo. Avoid shampoos with borax or alkalis. Rinse
well. This is more important than working up a head
load of lather.

Dry your hair after a wash.

Brush your hair three to four times a day with a soft


 bristled brush or a wide toothed comb. Wash your brush
and comb every time you wash your hair.

Oil the scalp, once a week, preferably an hour before


hair wash.

There are no completely safe or permanent hair dyes as


of now. Apart from causing scalp allergies, dyes can
also cause allergic colds and throat conditions. Perform
a sensitivity test every time you use hair colour.

Skin 
In Victorian England, modest young women were taught
to wash themselves without getting quite naked. In
Hindu culture baths were, apart from daily ablutions,
mandatory as part of observing pollution for various
reasons and occasions. But ritual bathing, or a dip, is
quite different from the daily bath personal hygiene
demands.

Soap and water are essential for keeping the skin clean.
A good bath once or twice a day is recommended,
especially in tropical countries like India. Those who are
involved in active sports or work out to a sweat would

do well to take a bath after the activity.

A mild soap will do the job adequately. Germicidal or


antiseptic soaps are not essential for the daily bath. You
can use a bath sponge for scrubbing. Back brushes and
heel scrubbers are available. But do not use abrasive
material.

The genitals and the anus need to be cleaned well


 because of the natural secretions of these areas, in
unhygienic conditions, can cause irritation and infection.

Wash off well after soaping. Drying with a clean towel


is important. Avoid sharing soaps and towels.

Change into clean underwear after bath.

Around middle age the skin tends to go dry a bit. A


moisturising oil or cream can be used. It is better to use
this at night, because if you go out in the sun or
commute on dusty roads when the skin is wet, dust
sticks to it and oils may also give you a tan.

Teeth 
Have you heard of the sixty-second battery operated
wonder brush? It has been analysed that it takes only
that long to give your teeth a good brush. You have to

hold the brush to your teeth and say cheese (and then
 perhaps S-A-U-C-E for the brush to get a good scrub
inside!).

Well, whether it is a neem twig or battery brush, you


cannot give brushing a miss.

Brush teeth twice a day and rinse well after every meal.
Brushing before going to bed is important. (Especially
recommended for people with a sweet tooth). For
normal teeth this is adequate.

While brushing, pay attention to the fact that you are


getting rid of the food particles stuck in between the
teeth and in the crevices of the flatter teeth at the back,
the molars and pre molars. Brush down on the upper
teeth and brush up on the lower teeth. Use a circular
motion. Pay attention to the tongue and the inner surface
of teeth as well.

The brush should have resilient bristles. It should be


rinsed well and left to dry after use. There are no perfect
toothpastes or powders. Use one without harsh abrasives
or strong antiseptics.
