The 90’s star has taken extremely good care of her hair and it shows. Her secret? Amla! She suggested in her Instagram post, “So, if you have thin or falling hair, eat a few amlas every day.” She went on to share her amla hair mask recipe. “For this, boil around six amlas in a cup of milk till it turns soft. Remove the seeds and mash the amla pulp thoroughly in the milk. Now, massage the pulp gently on your scalp and leave it for about 15 minutes before washing off with warm water. The best part about using this hair pack is that one need not use shampoo after this because the sourness in the amla removes all dirt from the hair, leaving it clean and silky,” she said.
