I'm dealing with hair fall for the past three months and it's really worrying me. Are those shampoo-based hair colors, like Indica or Streaks, which you get in Rs 30 sachet packs, safe to use every couple of months? Also, is there any way we can stop hair from greying or falling out using medicines? And if I do decide to color, which brand would be the best pick?

View allI'm feeling really worried about scabies. How long does it usually take to completely get rid of it? Is it considered a pretty serious illness? I'm also kind of scaredcan it actually be deadly?
Scabies is a skin infestation caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei. It is not usually a serious condition but can be very uncomfortable and contagious. Scabies can be effectively treated with topical medications such as Permethrin cream. It typically takes about 1-2 weeks for the symptoms to resolve after treatment. In some cases, a second treatment may be necessary. It is important to also wash all clothes, bedding, and towels in hot water to prevent re-infestation. Scabies does not typically result in death.

Is it possible to permanently lighten or whiten my entire skin tone without surgery? What treatments are available for this, and do they actually work long-term? I'm curious about safe options that don't involve plastic surgery.
