Winters for us translate directly into frizzy, dry hair and crazy scalp issues. Sigh!

We've tried the solutions at salons, as has stand-up comedian Faiza Saleem in her latest DVC for Vatika Hair Oil.

There's no shortcut to success - and that applies to hair problems as well.

The one and only solution that really works to counter these hair problems: oiling. Works without fail, every single time.
