Happy birthday, Dimple Kapadia! Revealing secrets to her breathtaking tresses
The legendary actor turns 66 today! Right from her first film Bobby in 1973 to her recent stints in Pathaan and Tu Jhoothi Mein Makkaar, if there's anything that hasn't aged a day about Dimple Kapadia, it has to be her beauty. On the birthday of this iconic star, let's find out what helps her age so gracefully and makes her appearances so timeless.
Kapadia swears by the habit of oiling her hair
During an interview with Vogue, Kapadia revealed, "The habit of oiling was prevalent throughout my childhood, and it helped as I have always had very dry, thick, and coarse hair." "Without the amount of professional styling I've had over the years, it would not look so glossy and shiny," she added. Well, now you know how to maintain voluminous hair.
Beer for hair? Kapadia gives it a YES!
When she flew back from New York to Mumbai to shoot for Sagar, the weather made Kapadia's hair frizzy. "But beer is a great conditioner. I remember for Tera Naam Liya with Jackie Shroff in Ram Lakhan, I'd used beer as a conditioner. The song was a hit, but it was my hair that ended up being talked about incessantly," she shared with Vogue.
The actor uses homemade hair masks
Kapadia also uses some fresh and homemade hair masks to keep her hair healthy and in good condition. "I oil my hair overnight and get a head massage with a homemade hair pack which is a mixture of five whites, a whole egg, and a banana. I leave it on for 30 minutes and then wash with lukewarm water," she revealeds during an interview.
Unlike many, she loves flaunting her greys
The Tenet actor is proud of her natural greys and doesn't hesitate to show them off. "I love showing off my natural hair and I think every woman should be able to sport them with confidence. If you're going grey, just add the right highlights to enhance them and wear them with pride," she was quoted saying during the interview.
Include seeds and nuts in your diet: Kapadia
Kapadia gives equal importance to what she consumes when it comes to her hair care routine. "I ate a lot of fish growing up. We lived in a coastal area and I feel it really helped my hair. Include lots of protein in your diet, eat balanced meals, and include seeds and nuts," she advised.
