Tips and tricks for growing long, healthy hair

On average, your hair can grow up to 6 inches every year. The secret to healthy, goodlooking
hair is a combination of nourishing your body on the inside, while nurturing
your hair on the outside. Follow the following tried-and-tested tips for beautiful hair.

1. Eat a healthy diet full of foods that

contain omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E,

biotin, silica, zinc, antioxidants, protein,

sulfur, iron, selenium, and folate. Consider

taking a vitamin D supplement, too.

2. Cleanse your hair gently and only

when necessary.

3. Condition and nourish your hair with

plant-based oils and extracts at least

once a week to protect the hair follicles.

4. Avoid wearing tight ponytails and hair

styles in which the hair shaft is tugged or

treated roughly.

5. Trim the ends of your hair on a

regular basis. Even snipping off a

quarter of an inch every few months will

get rid of any split ends, which, if left

alone, will continue to split even further

up the hair shaft.

6. Allow your hair to air dry instead of

applying harsh heat.

7. Avoid an excessive use of hot styling

tools such as curlers, flat irons, and

crimpers.

8. Remember, it is normal for the average

healthy person to shed up to 150 hairs

per day.

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Review

For most of the reviews here at Gadgets 360, we use the mobile in question as our primary phone for about a week or so before sharing our verdict with you. We realise this isn't perfect, since there are some aspects of the device that don't become obvious during that time, and in an ideal world, we'd use every phone for a couple of months before we publish our review. But we work under constraints where most devices aren't available to us for that long - almost all products that we review are loaned to us by companies for short durations - and there's also the competitive pressure of wanting to get your review out before others do, as long as it doesn't involve cutting any corners. With the launch of iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus in India, Apple offered to loan the two new iPhones to Gadgets 360 - and indeed other publications - for more than the typical timeframe of a few days. The India iPhone launch of course came a few we...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have made these Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies at least 20 times now. Not exaggerating. I first made these when we were in the Philippines, when it was a struggle to just keep butter solid for 2 seconds on the counter, and they were absolutely incredible. I had no idea how or why, but they just WORKED. And they blew my mind in the way only a perfect chocolate chip cookie really can. But then every once in a while, they didn’t work. I’m not always super exact with my baking, but still. They were not thick and chewy and buttery like the perfect cookie should be. Some of your comments said the same things – most of the time they worked, but sometimes they didn’t. And I don’t like that. Now I’m back home in dry, cool Minnesota and I have been waiting for this day just so I could figure out what would really make these cookies awesome for you. You who live in normal climates and shop at Cub Foods. I am now speaking your cookie-baking language. Since I’m re...
