Going on a long trip?

Before you decide on a holiday destination, be it domestic or abroad, it is important to make a wise decision of your holiday package provider. Here’s what you should ask your holiday package provider. You can start like this:

How long has the company (you are choosing to purchase your package) from been in business?
Check recommendations, if you can.
Ask about the accommodations that will be allotted?
Will you be booked on a major airline?
What exactly will you get for your money’s worth. Is the package worth it? Do ask for comments from travelers who have booked from this provider earlier.

Don’t just look at that colorful brochure and ‘general information’ insert. Ask for the exact contract you will be signing and scour the details. Look for hidden costs like late processing fees and hotel security deposits. There could be some!

Ask if the provider will be able to help if there is lost baggage insurance provided by the vendor? Are there ‘travel delay’ reimbursements? Emergency medical coverage?

Here’s a great tip: Try to place all travel transactions on a credit card. If there are disputes, a credit card company will go after the vendor for the recovery of fees you have paid. If you don’t have a credit card available, think twice. It is far better to have family or friends book the trip for you.

Keep aging at bay

The skin is the first reflection of aging and the face shows the visible changes as we age. The skin is the most vital organ of the body as it covers the whole body, and bacterial infections on the skin can and do spread to other vital organs.

Thus it’s very important to keep the skin well nourished, free from any bacterial and fungal infections. The skin has to be enriched with vitamins and minerals, to retain its natural strength so that it keeps its natural glow. Collagen based treatments help to keep the skin tight and reduce wrinkles which occur due to skin losing its elasticity. The skin has to be detoxified, dead cells removed, pores opened, cleaned , nourished, enriched and rejuvenated.

Make the most of your time together

Want to add that zing to your relationship? It’s easy, just spend more time together. Remember, shared experiences build memories and bond a couple together more closely and help in building a long-term, healthy relationship.

• Fun things to do together can include learning something new, exploring nature, being active together, or jointly giving time to a good cause. Examples of learning something new together could include taking a dance class. Hiking, swimming, and camping together are entertaining and can create a memorable experience you can look back on many years later.

• Being active together, whether it’s walking, jogging, or playing tennis keeps you healthy in more ways than one.

• It’s also a good idea to set aside one night a week to do something fun together and make it a date night. Romantic dinners are always a hit.

• Couples with young children often feel that they should spend every waking hour and shower every bit of attention on them. While this is true, taking a few hours off from from them will make you bond together as a couple. Remember, this will provide a good example for your children of how a marriage or partnership should be.

Hair loss post pregnancy is hormonal

My family wants me to get married. But, I fear rejection as I am going bald. What can I do?
For baldness there are nonsurgical remedies like hair weaving and bonding. These techniques ensure that you get back a head full of hair. We also provide an opportunity to meet clients who have undergone the procedure earlier.

I’m 27-years-old and want to know how I can avoid rashes on my legs which appear post waxing and shaving.
Try laser treatment for hair removal. This is a painless procedure and can be done on the chin, upper lip, face, arms, legs, underarms, breast, bikini line and the rest of the body. Moreover, in 10-12 sittings your hair is permanently removed.

Post pregnancy, I have put on weight and have developed a loose belly with stretch marks. I’m witnessing hair loss too. What should I do?
Post-delivery, the uterus needs a couple of weeks to shrink back to normal size. If you have a large belly even after this, then getting rid of this requires exercise on specialized machines. As far as stretch marks are concerned, we can assist you with various techniques and specialized services like laser and American dermatological tested compositions made specifically for stretch marks. Post-delivery hair fall is due to hormones which will steadily return to normal levels. This hair loss is temporary unless it’s being triggered by other causes. Our trichologist at Berkowits can help you with the CIT treatment.
