Brushes – do they play an important role in styling our hair? Here is an answer! The brush is an instrument which makes hair attractive. The sheer range of hairbrushes available today can make choosing the right one seem as hard as trying to pick the best from among equally enchanting beauties in a contest or trying to find Mr Right through swayamvar. But here is how to solve the mystery. Read this simple primer and buying a brush will no more be a confusing affair. Hairbrushes are of two types:

How to Choose an Everyday Brush

• Make sure the length and the texture of your hair must suit your hairbrush.
• Invest in good quality bristles. Bristles can be natural, nylon or a mixture of both.
• Straight, long and fine hair are better to be comb by natural bristles. They help to give sleek, shiny look without damaging the scalp.
• Go for nylon or nylon-and-bristle mix brush if you have thick, wavy hair. These bristles work great on short hair.

How to Choose Styling Brush

- A round styling brush gives curl to hair when blow-drying. This radial brush is good for shaping of hair & adds style
- A brush with thick bristles is ideal for creating waves & flicks.

Most of us keep a latest in fashion & jewellery but seldom experiment with new hairstyles & make-up. Let’s check the latest trends in hair & make-up.

Now-a-days curls are “in”, short & shoulder length hair is in & the ‘graduated bob’ is becoming more popular. This hair cut gets longer in the front & shorter around the nape. If you prefer long hair then layering will add to your glamourous look. Fringes are back in style too.

Shades of brown, honey & red are the colours this season for streaking your hair but for global hair colouring, apart from the regular shades such as burgundy & brown, violet is the chic new shade.

Right make-up gives you an instant makeover. Getting right shade of foundation to compliment your skin tone is important. A blusher adds colour to your cheeks. If you are going out in the sun, use a sunscreen.

For the eyes, the heavy smoky look is in style for the evening & party wear, while the soft, subtle look in the day. For the lips, the nude glossy look is in the fashion. Using a moisturizer before applying the lipstick protects your lips & makes your lipstick stay longer. Go for the lighter or neutral shades for the day & darker for the evening- say maroon.

While getting the make-up right is important, it is equally important to remove the make-up. Cleanse, tone & moisturize your skin at the end of the day.

‘Mahek’, the children’s film by Kranti Kanade which has already won several international awards and accolades, has been suggested as a necessary tool for school children in Canadian schools, though it appears to have gone unrecognized within the country.

In a project written by Ernest Agbuya on the initiative of the Teacher Advisory Committee of the Sprockets Toronto International Film Festival for Children, this film produced by the Children’s Film Society, India (CFSI) has been recommended to be shown to children from grades four to six. In the words of an educationist: “This is a wonderful film that celebrates the power of dreams and imagination as key forces for change, creativity, leadership, invention and guilt-free leisure.”

The film in Hindi and English was made in 2007 and won awards in the United States and elsewhere.

Reacting to the news, CFSI Chief Executive Officer Sushovan Banerjee said: ‘It is a matter of great pride and honour for CFSI that our film "Mahek" has founds its way into the school curriculum in Canada as well. Earlier it was introduced as part of the syllabus in Ohio University . Mahek is a film that is simple to understand, rich in content and beautifully portrays the power of dreams in our quest for excellence. Through the charming character of Mahek, the director has brought out the importance of imagination and how we all need to discover our inherent talents in order to achieve success. I only hope that after its success in US and Canada , Mahek will surely find its pride of place in Indian school curriculum as well.’

According to Agbuya, ‘a key element in the plot is an essay competition in Mahek’s class. The full Writing strand of the Language Curriculum is relevant to the ideas presented in this Teacher Resource. There are science connections through references to Isaac Newton and James Watt, two scientists who made key contributions to the studies of energy and forces. Links can also be made to the Grade 3 study of Growth and Changes in Plants. One of the film’s key themes is perseverance, June’s trait for Character Education.’

The film is about young Mahek who seems to be a failure in everything, until a woman claiming to be her fairy godmother tells the young girl to “Look within yourself and you’ll find your strengths.” A writing contest at school seems like the chance for Mahek to use her powerful imagination. The film celebrates the importance of imagination, self-confidence and perseverance, and reminds us that everybody is great at something.

It has been suggested that among other things, teachers can lead a discussion with the class after giving students a chance to share their initial responses to two important quotes in the film: Rabindranath Tagore’s “If you shut your doors to all errors, truth will be shut out”, and Mahatma Gandhi’s “Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.”

These quotes can lead to questions like ‘What did these people really mean when they authored these quotes?’, ‘What do the quotes mean to you?’, and ‘Can you make a text-to-self, text-to-text or text-to-world connection to either of these quotes that would illustrate the truth behind these words?’

There can also be a discussion on the two scientists, Isaac Newton and James Watt. It has been suggested that as shown in the film, an essay competition can be held after the screening. For their topic, students can choose from intelligence, humour, beauty or imagination. The key themes of the film show how students see that even the most ordinary person has something extra-ordinary in him or her.

Amit, who is from Delhi, also goes to South Africa and he is everything Priya does not want in a man. Amit and his friend break into the girl’s dorm and while they are being chased by a matron, Amit enters Priya’s room and is struck by her beauty. He steals her diary and makes a copy of it and replaces it.

Knowing exactly what Priya wants, he pursues her and they fall in love but their happiness is shattered when Priya realizes he has read her diary and lied to her. She breaks up with Amit despite his protests. He tells her it was destiny which brought them together.

Priya decides to test destiny and asks Amit to write his full name on a fifty rupee note and buys a notebook with it. She writes her full name and phone number in the book and gives it to an old book shop. She feels that if destiny really meant for them to be together they’d find the note and the book again and find each other.

Three years later Priya and Amit are engaged to marry different people.

Will the fifty rupee note and the notebook find their way back into Priya and Amit’s hands and bring them back together? Or does destiny have other plans for them?
