How To Maintain Colour-Treated Hair

Have you coloured your hair recently? That must’ve been an exciting experience? As much as we love colouring our hair, little are we aware that colour hair needs extra intensive care if you look to last the dye longer. It's so heartbreaking when you colour your hair, and it fades away in just a few weeks due to improper care of your locks. Before you learn it the hard way, here are some of the tips that we have gathered for you: Turn Down The Water Temperature: Hot showers are fantastic, but it's not so great for your colour treated hair. Remember that when you wash your hair with warm water, the hair's cuticle is opened. This allows the colour to wash away while shampooing and conditioning. Prevent your hair colour from going down the drain. Shampoo your hair with lukewarm water ...

Things You Should Never Ever Post On Social Media

How many of you think twice before posting on the Internet? Can't relate? Well, with Snapchat, Instagram stories, Facebook, Twitter and every other social media platform, it is quite challenging to keep our life a secret. So, even when you think that you're safe through privacy, you are not. Once it’s on the Internet, you lose control over it and that it can also be used against you in the near future. This is particularly important in case you’re looking for a job. Your future employers might not be able to access your private posts, but eventually, you will add your colleagues as future friends. That's when they will have access to your stuff. The key is to keep it as clean as possible. With that in mind, we have listed a number of factors that you shouldn’t post on so...

How Many Calories Should You Eat A Day?

What goes into our head the moment we think of calories? Fattening foods. However, in dietary terms, calories are what provides us with energy. If we take in more energy than we do need, we will start gaining weight. And on the other hand, if we take in lesser energy, we will start losing fat, weight and eventually muscle mass. What we eat determines how much calories we consume. For instance, if you are on a weight-loss diet, chances are you will decide on what to eat and what not to eat. Not to forget that how and when you eat does put an effect on the body as it uses energy differently throughout the day. Your body’s energy use always depends on how active you are and a little bit on how old you are. [blockquote author="" link="" target="_blank"]As per Dietary Guidelines fo...

Some of the Most Weird Definitions of what “Home” is to People

What is a home really? Where your family resides? A house you have spent your hard-earned money on? Or a couch where you can crash over binge watching FRIENDS. Home is not just where we live honestly. It has a much wider and deeper meaning to most people. Home symbolizes an inherent comfort zone, an extension of oneself really. To me, home is where my family is. Although, my childhood bedroom still feels like my only “Real” bedroom, home has majorly been where my family is to me, in whichever part of the world that is. I believe most people will agree and relate to this sentiment but trust me there are so many people who have the quirkiest and most interesting definitions of what home is to them.   Home is where you are fully comfortable on the toilet seat As weird an...

How To Stop Worrying And Start Living

For many of us, worrying has become a characteristic gesture; it's like we can never stop worrying. This habit may keep many of us lying awake in our bed at night and annoyingly gnaws away at us as we try to work, relax and enjoy life. Unrelenting worrying behaviour is deliberating and can drain you of positive energy – both physically and mentally. However, the good news is: like any other habits, it can be changed. If you are someone who worries a lot, chances are, you aren’t able to enjoy yourself as much. They may not be able to concentrate on your goals and pleasure.

What to Say When Conversations Turn Negative?

We all have at least one person in our lives who are a human-version of migraine. We know them. Perhaps they live with us, work with us or even hang out with us. All they do is complain, criticise, vent and blame. These kinds of people look at the world in a very different way than ordinary people: cynically. Are you tired of dealing with them? You surely must have. Unfortunately, it has become a core part of your life, and all you can do about them is to learn to cope with them.

Intentionally Isolating Yourself

  We have all seen those posts on social media, whereby it says, “No internet, no electronics, no wi-fi and no social media for three months and you get 3 million." Perhaps, many of us even wanted to take on this challenge; not because of the HUGE sum of money that comes with it (which is, of course, an advantage), but because we want to isolate ourselves. Isolate ourselves from the big, bad reality. It's not common for you to think like that. Dreaming of yourself to be somewhere in another part of the world, far away from the reality is something I keep thinking of. But have you ever wondered, what makes us believe in such a manner? Is it stress? Depression? Loneliness? Whatever your reason might be, know that there is a significant difference between social isolation ...

The Burnout Generation: Why ‘Adulting’ has become bitterly hard

If you’re a millennial, your brain probably never stops. So does mine. Every time I think that I have got some free time to myself, my to-do list flashes in front of my eyes. That's when I start feeling guilty; I could be at the gym, or doing laundry, or cleaning my apartment. Sigh. For most millennials, it all starts from their high school period. Excellent results to never-ending extracurriculars to internships; it's like we are all tucked in between. Not all of us are the same, and many of you already suffer from mild depression and anxiety, and on top of that, this stress leads to having insomnia. Moreover, this is where it brings us to suffering from millennial burnout. This idea was first hyped up by BuzzFeed writer Anne Helen Peterson in her most shared article. The article...
