In an interview with Vogue, Twinkle spoke about one haircare ritual that she swears by.

In the caption, she wrote, “An onion a day may keep everyone away, but it does strengthen the roots! Keep it on for 20 minutes and then wash it all off. When I want a less malodorous option that gives me the same results, I spritz on my Bhringraj hair vitalizer and get on with my day #StinkySaturdaySecrets.”
