Need haircut suggestions 🫂

Suggest me a haircut for 2A-2B wavy, low-porosity hair.

Also, what single product can I use to enhance my waves? I currently use Scalpe Plus and L’Oréal Hyaluronic Shampoo alternately, along with Pantene Miracles Rescue Collagen Conditioner. I also have dandruff, so I don’t use oil.

I tried understanding curly hair routines on YouTube but honestly, I’m confused 😭 There are too many products- gel, mousse, curl cream, leave-in conditioner, serum etc.

I’m looking for a simple, low-maintenance routine and just one product to start with 🤧

Thank you 🤍

Hi everyone,

I’ve been facing a lot of consistency issues with my preparation. I had a gap of almost four months from December, during which I didn’t study at all. I restarted my preparation in April but I’m still struggling to stay focused and consistent.

I have cleared Prelims before but couldn’t clear Mains, so right now my main focus is on Mains preparation.

My current routine is:

- English: Editorial reading, grammar and vocabulary from Nimisha Bansal ma’am, Perfection batch

- Reasoning: Mains-level PDFs (Guidely)

- Quant: Harshal Sir’s YouTube videos

The main issue is Quant, as I’m weak in Maths. Because of inconsistency, it sometimes takes me two days to complete a 2-hour mains lecture 😭

I would really appreciate it if you could share your daily targets, study routine or how you prepare for Mains on a daily basis. Any tips on improving consistency and getting better in Quant would be very helpful.

Thank you so much!

I have 2A wavy hair and low-porosity hair. I use Scalpe Plus and L’Oréal Hyaluronic Shampoo alternately and I recently started using Pantene Miracles Rescue Collagen Conditioner (it’s been a week)

I don’t apply oil because I have dandruff in fact, I haven’t used oil for the past 2.5 years 😭

I was thinking of starting a curly hair routine and watched a lot of videos on YouTube… and honestly, I’m so confused 😭 There are so many products leave-in conditioner, serum, gel, curl cream, mousse, I don’t even remember all of them

I really can’t figure out what I actually need to use. Every influencer suggests different products and it just feels overwhelming.

Also, I’m a bit lazy 😭 I respect the curly hair routine but using so many products feels like too much for me.

Can someone please help me understand what I should actually use?

Hello Sundar peeps🤌🏼🤌🏼♥️ 

I’m looking for a micellar water for daily use (I don't wear makeup everyday) My T-zone gets oily, so I have combination skin. I also have closed comedones on my forehead and chin. I went to a dermatologist, he prescribed some gels and medications but my skin reacted badly (acne, swelling, red bumps) so I'm not continuing that now.

I’ve started using Garnier micellar water (pink bottle) daily, it’s been around 1-1.5 weeks and I’ve already finished my bottle ( it was already less 😭)

I want recommendations for a micellar water suitable for daily use. I don’t wear makeup, just sunscreen. For heavier days, I have the oil-based Garnier Micellar Water (yellow bottle)

Here’s my current routine and I’d like some help:

My routine (daily except Sunday and Thursday)

\~ AM routine:

Facewash: Derma Co 2% Sali-Cinamide Anti-Acne Face Wash

Moisturizer: Pond’s Cera Hyamino Super Light Gel (started 4–5 days ago; earlier I was using Re’equil Oil-Free Moisturizer)

Sunscreen: Conscious Chemist Berry Bright Sunscreen (started a week ago; earlier I was using Neutrogena)

\~ PM routine:

Micellar water (to remove sunscreen and moisturizer; I don’t wear makeup): Garnier Micellar Water (pink bottle)

Facewash: Derma Co 2% Sali-Cinamide Face Wash

Aloe vera gel

On Sunday and Thursday:

\~ AM routine: Same as above

\~ PM routine:

Micellar water: Garnier Micellar Water (pink bottle)

Facewash: Simple Facewash

Serum: 2% Salicylic Acid Serum

Moisturizer: Pond’s Moisturizer

Also, I’m thinking of adding a niacinamide serum to my routine, but I’m not sure how to include it (like whether I should use it daily or just 2-3 times a week, I’ll figure that out 🤧)

Please recommend which one I should use 🤌🏼

Ahh 😫 thank you so much for reading 😭😭🤌🏼♥️♥️
