Hair is important. Hair is your crowning glory. The way you style your hair is one of the most eloquent aspects of our body vocabulary. The better you treat your hair, the easier it will be to grow and the better it will look. Some women favor very long hair and resist the idea of frequent cuts, but skipping haircuts in order to grow your hair out is actually self-defeating. If you take good care of your hair, you may not need to get it cut more than twice a year. Sleep with a satin scarf or sleep cap on your head or with a satin pillowcase. This helps avoid split ends caused by the rubbing of your hair against a “rough” cotton pillowcase. It also avoids moisture being wicked out of your hair into your cotton pillowcase.

Wash your hair no more often than every week to week and a half. After shampooing, rinse your hair with cool water to seal moisture in the hair shafts. Coloring you hair can be very damaging. To distribute the natural oils in your hair, bend over and brush your scalp and hair from back to front until the scalp tingles; then massage the scalp with your fingertips. Towel-dry your hair thoroughly before using a blow dryer. Avoid damaging your hair with too much heat. Avoid using a brush on wet hair because it is subject to breakage. Comb out snarls. Do a deep conditioner or hot oil treatment once a month. Massage your scalp on a regular basis to promote circulation and oil production. Avoid overuse of products with mineral oil or petroleum.

Always use a leave-in conditioner after washing your hair. Use a coated rubber band or a soft hair tie to secure ponytails and the ends of a braid to reduce the stress on the hair. If your hair is prone to buildup from conditioners, styling gel, or hair spray, mix 1-tablespoon baking soda with your regular shampoo once a week. Rinse and dry as usual. Eat a proper diet. Vitamins and protein are essential for proper hair growth. Use gel after a braid is finished to smooth down loose or uncontrolled hairs. Apply it to your fingertip or to the end of a hairpin. Use gel to control hair when you want a “wet” affect. Apply gel sparingly to your hair once styled. If you want a soft finish but need to control the hair. Use hair spray.

Once upon a time, antiaging eye products such as eye creams were completely unheard of. The concept of trying to reverse the aging process or putting on any type of beautifying cream was simply out of the question. As time progressed, technology began to keep up with the desires of consumers and started producing all manner of creams and solvents in order to help the fairest of the sexes achieve perfection. Unfortunately, a lot of these anti-aging eye products such as eye creams were little more than smoke and mirrors, often causing more damage than they cured. With these types of products available, women began to become a large portion of the consumer society, purchasing products that were intended to help them reverse the aging process, beautify their skin and look their best.

Fortunately, as time passed, the formulation and propagation of these types of products became a little bit safer and a lot more effective. During the colonial ages, makeup and beautifying products were generally limited to juices and berries and all manner of coloring agents found in every possible corner of the world. Mixed with lead, arsenic, unidentified products and even plain old common mud from the yard, these different types of anti-aging creams and products were simply all that was available to women of the age. In the modern day, the amount of different antiaging eye products are staggering. Made from a variety of organic and inorganic products, there is literally no end to the eye creams and rejuvenation potions that can be found almost anywhere in any developed nation.

Its easy to find tips about getting rid of pimples. Some of them may actually have some merit. Here is a sampling:

• Frequent ice packs
• Cleanse often
• Pimple Creams
• Avoid oily makeup
• Dab toothpaste (a new one to me)
• Avoid picking and squeezing

However, after battling pimples for many years, I concluded that none of the common tips helped much, if at all. One thing did make a difference: if I skipped cleansing my face before bed, I would get a pimple a few days later. Once that pimple appeared, nothing would get rid of it. I would torture my face with excessive cleansing, ointments creams, fingernails… to no avail. Continue reading ‘Getting Rid of Pimples is a Myth — Prevent Pimples Instead’ »
