There has been so much said about women’s beauty that the line between beauty tips and beauty myths has become blurred. So much so that at times, entirely untrue bits of trivia end up becoming a sort of truth for us that we believe and promote. So here’s a list of the most absurd yet common beauty myths, some of which even you may have believed in at one time!
1 Pluck a grey hair and you get several more:
This is the most common thing people hear when they sport their first grey hair and are advised against pulling it out to avoid ending up with several dozen more silver strands. It’s completely untrue because there are a limited amount of follicles on your head. So it doesn’t matter whether you pull out white hair or not, ageing will take its own course.
2 A razor shave will make your hair grow thicker:
Hair thickness depends on hair follicles, which lie under your skin. A razor doesn’t even touch that. The reason why hair may seem thick a few days after a razor shave is because they are shaved at an angle, which gives the appearance of a stubble.
3 Oily skin doesn’t need to be hydrated:
Oily skin is your body’s way of producing essential oils to keep skin and hair soft and healthy. These oils may end up clogging your pores which are cleared by a moisturiser. So if you have excessively oily skin, an oil-free moisturiser can work best.
4 Does a 2-in-1 shampoo work as advertised:
Conditioning and shampooing are two different things. A shampoo cleans your hair while a conditioner softens it. Most two-in-one shampoos are merely clever marketing ploys. For great hair, you should always shampoo and condition separately.
5 Eating fish with dairy products causes patches on skin:
Patches on the skin are caused by the destruction of cells that create melanin. The condition is called vitiligo and is in no way related to combining dairy products and fish.
