Holi has always been the most awaited Indian festivals as it symbolizes love, fun, joy and colors. Holi is always a great festival to celebrate if celebrated with harmony, which is the real essence of holi. But the concept of ‘bura na mano holi hai’ has taken another meaning in present context that has made it a rough festival when people try to cross the limits and that is when it gets dirty.
Celebrating holi is always considered to be a great fun, but the spirit of holi may get ruined if we don’t be a little cautious and careful while playing holi. There are many Do's and Don'ts during Holi that should be kept in mind to experience true essence of the festival of colours. Below are some of them:
Do’s

· Always prefer wearing full-sleeved t-shirts or shirts as they will protect your skin to greater extent.
· Use simple colours mixed with water.
· Apply some oil on your scalp and hair, and some lotion your skin as it will prevent you from the side effects of the chemical contents of the synthetic colours used during Holi.
