Mustard and Hair Problems

    So, I've considered asking on PI about this one in the past but I think here it'll be treated with proper seriousness. I'm sure that all you mustard fans (and english mustard fans in particular) have noticed that regular doses of mustard in the diet put hairs in all sorts of places but particularly on the chest. Now, while I don't have anything against hairy chested people, it can seriously ruin my mustard experience. What's the solution and how do others cope with this problem? Am I alone in this predicament?

    The only situation I can imagine in which being hairy infringes on your mustard-related enjoyment is you spreading mustard onto somebody's chest.

    Sweet things yes, but mustard? This is a new one for me.

    Alas I haven't met the girl who is willing to do the mustard thing. If any of ye are reading ye know where to PM me (no hairy chested girls please).

    So it was my liking for mustard that did this to me, and there was me thinking it was the Guinness...

    who would have thunk it!? Mustard helps fight hair loss....

    (ok technically it's mustard oil, but mustard based all the same!)

    HOME REMEDIES
    Several home remedies have been found useful in the prevention and treatment of hair loss.

    The most effective among these remedies is a vigorous rubbing of the scalp with the fingers, after washing the hair with cold water. The scalp should be rubbed vigorously till it starts to tingle with heat. This will activate the sebaceous glands and energise the circulation of blood in the affected area, making hair growth healthy.

    Mustard oil, boiled with henna leaves, is useful in promoting healthy growth of hair. About 250 grams of mustard oil should be boiled in a tin basin. A little quantity of henna leaves should be gradually put in this oil till about 60 grams of these leaves are thus burnt in the oil. The oil should then be filtered through a cloth and stored in a bottle. Regular massage of the head with this oil will produce abundant hair.
