“Panchhi bani udati
firu mast gagan mein, Aaj main aazad hun duniya ke chaman mein.”
I was riding my cycle and my choties tied with red ribbon
were swaying in air. My cycle was almost flying in the air just like the spirit
of the song, suddenly, I heard this, “don’t play too much in hot weather, don’t
….” Aaaauu, aaauch... dhappp... dhadaam...
mummyyyy… I was on the floor.
“Itni badi ho gai hai fir bhi bed se gir jaati hai.” My
brother aka devil’s modern avatar was laughing.
The best part of the day is when I am standing in front the
mirror and combing my hair (that time I seriously feel a blonde like Rapunzel). “O Haseena Zulfon wali…ye reshmi zulfein,
ye sharbati aankhein ...” the fm
radio was playing these classics when somebody intervened, “for how long you
gonna stand here ... “that’s mamma dear,
somehow she don’t like my mirror love; she believes that this activity (staring
the mirror falls under Don’t Category because Baalon Ko Nazar lag jaati hai).
“Mum, I want to color my hair in burgundy, in reddish-brown;
in bronze ... I want to highlight my
hair with golden strikes... I want to curl my hair; thin curls, thick curls,
long curls and short curls... I want to make hairstyles like ramp models.”
“Mum I want to Perm my hair like Nicola Kidman.” I spoke almost
in a loud voice.
“Don’t play with your hair Mintu, they are not made of iron
or wood; these types of Adventures can ruin your hair forever. I can’t allow
you to use those harsh chemicals and Cruel Instruments on your beautiful hair. Baal Kharaab Ho Jaayenge Beta”
“Par mamma, just a little color or curls can give me an
awesome makeover ... I am bore with my
choti … “
“Already your hair falling and see how dry they are, when
last time you have oiled them? Baal
Jhaadoo jaise ho jaayenge.”
“Color your Fat Friends, specially that purple one, its
stupid nose will look very cute in Red color.” my brother interrupted.
“They are not FAT, they are SOFT Teddy and they all have
NAMES.”
Yeah, I have named my cute teddies; Silky, Shaanoo, Dazzy
and Curly. Now don’t ask me what is the inspiration behind these names…
“Chehare pe giri
zulfein kah do to hataa doon main ...
gustaakh maaf ...” the music system
was playing this beautiful song while the hairstylist was showing me demos of various
hair color options and hair cuts.
“Tell me something, mere
baal jhaadoo jaise to nahi ho jaayenge naa after this Color Session.” I was
worried obviously.
“Are you crazy, why you are thinking so? Nothing will happen
to your hair, until you will give them proper care and nourishment. Have you
used DOVE??”
“No, why..?”
“See, Dove has a complete range of hair care product that
includes Hair Fall Rescue Treatment, Split Ends Rescue System Shampoos,
Conditioners and Hair Elixirs such as Nourished Shine and Dryness Care. Use
them as per your requirement and feel that Love that Dove will Shower upon Your
Hair.”
“Would that be enough>” I was still anxious.
“Yup, as they say, “Play Safe” so Play with Colors and Curls
and Styles, but don’t forget to protect your Cinderella hair with Dove Magic.” She
smiled.
After a couple of
weeks
“Udein Jab Jab Zulfein
Teri ...”
“Mintoooo… I told you not to play with hair… Baal
Kharaab… ?” Mamma and Bhaiya were surprised.
I slowed down the volume of cellphone music and replied ...” I am Playing with Dove.”
I caressed my bouncy curly hair and turned the cell cam on
to take a selfi of my shinning Chocolate shade hair. I took few locks in my
hand and rubbed them on my cheek; it felt soft and tender like fur and clicked
the perfect shot.
