Holi festival is a fun and increasingly popular celebration that in recent years has become a mainstay in many nations worldwide. The colored paint based festivities are something one should take part in at least once in their life, so here are some tips to ensure you enjoy it.
#1. Be safe! Try to avoid being too gregarious and never let others be rude to you.
#2: Try to use homemade colors when dealing with hair and skin products. This is highly beneficial, and your hair and skin will thank you for it. While synthetic products can be easier to find, natural products are friendlier to your skin and hair. If natural products are not available, it is recommended that you use a high-quality color item. This can be done by purchasing items from reputable vendors or stores.
#3: Try to avoid using the overbearing and outrageous colors when painting your skin or dying your hair. While green, purple, orange and yellow have an impact, they are far more difficult to remove that reds or pinks. The chemicals in these products are what make the color bright, so try to avoid the synthetic items. Try safe alternatives from premierglow.com instead.
#4: Always ensure that your face is well creamed before applying and removing the mask. You should also apply a coating of paint on both fingernails and toenails. This will ensure they remain protected during the festival.
#5: Oil your hair to ensure that the colors chosen for dye does not stick to the hair strands and can be easily removed later. It is also recommended that you cover your hair even though it is dyed to stand out. Hats and caps can protect the hair from any hard-to-remove dyes.
#6: Ensure that any products or powders do not reach your eyes. A person’s eyes are highly vulnerable to damage on Holi due to the placement of eyes in one’s face, along with the use of synthetic products that can damage the inside of the eye. Always ensure that your eyes are protected using sunglasses. The sunglasses can protect from any misfire of water jets or color-filled darts.
#7: Use dental caps to avoid your teeth from suffering from unwanted stains.
#8: It is recommended that you wear your “worst” clothes so you will not have the issue of immediate clothes washing. Try and wear tattered denim items with shades lie purple, blue, black and green.
#9: Try to avoid all possible attacks to your face. If these attempts to protect your face fail, it is advised that you keep your lips and eyes shut tightly when attacked on the face. It is also advised that you avoid going outside your house, at least for the peak hours of celebration. Your residence ensures safety from any hooligans who are looking to attack people. Furthermore, the house can help to avoid attack from friends who may be slightly rough on the day.
#10: When traveling, it is recommended that you ensure the car windows are tightly shut, even if you do not have air conditioning in the car. Try to avoid bumping into groups of frenzied individuals if you choose to walk on the streets. In fact, it may be better to cross the road using sidewalks or remaining a safe distance from others.
#11: Do not use permanent dye on your hair or skin. If a person applied the product on you, it is advised that you do not rub your face immediately to remove the dye, particularly if the dye is wet. Instead, you should utilize high-quality and natural cleaning milk to remove the dye. This is much better than using the average bar of soap which can cause your skin to dry out.
#12: Flying missiles from locality buildings or rotten eggs being thrown on your head are not too distressing. Unfortunately, they will have a bad odor; however, using a good conditioner on your hair can help you deal with this issue. Of course, avoiding any hooligans will help you avoid any of these problems.
#13: If you have the police on your side when dealing with untoward hooligans you can make an official complaint. Provide the police with the locality, building and potentially the individual’s name.
#14: Avoid taking frequent baths as this will cause damage to your hair, face and skin. You may also lose hair if applying too much shampoo or soap – this is because the products have a drying effect. It is advised that you take a bath later once the entire Holi celebration has ended.
#15: If you have skin allergies, then it is best you avoid Holi entirely. Unfortunately, visiting a dermatologist offers no relief once the damage is experienced.
#16: Avoid any jumping or running on the wet floors. By avoiding this activity, you can avoid any injuries as your bones are particularly vulnerable on the day.
