The queen of Totkay, Zubaida Apa established herself as the ultimate go-to for every kind of issue. With a pinch of that and a spoon of this, she had an answer to all of life’s little problems.

Her wisdom and grace could never be ignored and now that she has passed away, it will certainly never be forgotten.

Here are only some of the well-known totkay Zubaida Apa taught us over the years, we will always be forever grateful.

1. For hair growth

Make a hair mask of mehndi, egg and mustard oil. Apply to scalp, leave on for 20 minutes, and shampoo.

2. For weight loss

Add a cinnamon stick and a tablespoon of honey to boiling hot water at night. Drink half of the lukewarm water at night and the other half in the morning.

3. For a bad cough

Heat together honey and minced garlic, cool and consume at bedtime.

4. For glowing skin

Make a face mask out of one tablespoon yogurt and tablespoon of white vinegar. Apply to your face, leave on for 15 minutes and wash with lukewarm water.

5. For Dandruff

Mix together one tablespoon of mouthwash (Listerine) and one tablespoon of water and massage all over your scalp. Cover your head with a hot towel and leave on for 10 minutes and wash your hair with shampoo. Add one tablespoon of olive oil into your wet scalp and brush your hair.
