One night my hubby cutely asked me, “What happens every change of season?” I thought and replied, “Sales?” He laughed and replied back, “No your dandruff and long hair everywhere!” I was shocked! Yes, I do get those occasional spurts of Dandruff but nothing I paid attention to in the past. Hairfall I thought was because of those hair colours I love to experiment with. Well so do you I replied, “Why have you stopped wearing black?,” was my cheeky comeback. And my hubby remained quiet.
