SMART HINTS

Here are some smart hints to try out when you need it.

Fixing greasy hair
Sprinkle some talcum powder onto your palm and smear it lightly with the other palm (catching some powder on the fingers) so you get a uniform layer of powder. Run fingers through hair, starting from the scalp. Don't overdo it as you may end up with dusty-looking hair. You can do this when you are in a hurry and do not have time to wash your hair and you dont like to go out with greasy hair.I do it during my confinement days when we are not suppose to wash our hair for a whole month. (This was practice by the chinese in olden days, I don't think the modern chinese practice this nowadays).




Fixing a headache
Wrap a hot damp towel around your neck, forehaed and shoulder. If heat does not work try cold pack instead. then drink a cup of warm chamomile tea. It will take the headache away.
















Wear cotton gloves
Wear a pair of cotton gloves under your rubber ones when doing heavy wash-up with hot water. that way, you won't feel the heat on your skin. It is alos good iadea for gardening as cotton gloves absorb perspiration.
