According to leading scientists, the first thing that attracts people to you is your hair. “The longer and shinier it is the better. The person you want to attract should be able to see their reflection in your hair,” reads a recently published report in a newspaper our lunch came packed in.

Along with good hair, it’s always better if you look like/are a beautiful celebrity like Priyanka Chopra.

But since you’re not, in fact, a former Miss World who stars in an American primetime TV show as an FBI agent, here are some hacks that can make your hair look pretty but still not like Priyanka Chopra’s:

Oil your hair, at least once a week

Oiling your hair has many benefits. It can reduce hair fall, make your hair shinier and healthy-looking, but it will not make your hair look like that of the actress who starred in the unfortunate Bollywood sci-fi movie Love Story 2050.

Brush your hair every night

Brushing your hair helps in increasing blood flow to your hair follicles. This aids in hair growth and healthy-looking hair. It might also give you, temporarily, the put-together look of a high-flying, royal wedding attending, celebrity, but we all know the truth.

Avoid styling your hair using heat

The lure of poker straight hair or Merida-esque hair might be intense, but try and avoid the temptation and give your hair straighteners and curlers a break once in a while. The heat is not beneficial for your hair and can cause long-term damage. But not as much as the damage to your self-esteem from knowing you’ll never be as good as Priyanka Chopra.

Eat foods rich in Omega 3 fatty acids

Foods like egg yolks and sardines contain Omega-3 fatty acids that will make your hair shine super bright. Almost enough to make people blind to the reality that you and your hair are not Priyanka Chopra.

Get your hair trimmed regularly

A haircut every six to eight weeks prevents split ends from forming, thus helping your hair to grow healthily. Letting split-ends form causes irreparable damage to your hair. It should also take your mind off from the grim reality that whatever you do, your hair will never achieve the stardom that Priyanka Chopra’s hair enjoys.
