Hair me please!

I think that every girl or every woman would agree with me when i say that one of the reasons of guys turning their heads at us is our "hair", its one of our physical assets that we should take care of. No wonder there's a lot of parlor and salon in every corner of every street as well as inside the mall, it's just everywhere!! We love to change our looks every now and then, however we need to be aware on how to properly take care of our hair.

We can't just do experiments on our hair without consultation, we can't just go to a salon and tell the stylist you want Angelina Jolie's new cut. One has to look or consider his or her physical traits such as the

• shape of your face
• your skin color
• shape of your eyebrows
• even the type of ears you have

Those are some considerations you have to think first before you decide of the cut, the color or the hairstyle you want. Sometimes, those cut or style that looks good on other people or its the "in thing" would also look good on us! Thats why we should consult or ask advice to hair experts if the look that we want would also look good on us!

I used to have a long shiny hair, and we all know it's hard to take care and maintain it, you really have to give time effort to keep it beautiful. My mom use to buy coconut and scrape its coconut meat, boil it and squeeze to extract its oil, put in in my hair and have it stayed there for an hour, rinse it with shampoo(you know old ways!), and you know what?? the smell of the oil stayed at my hair for 3 days even if i wash it with shampoo! It was sooo annoying i have to stay home the whole time, i don't want people to smell me that way. Good thing now, thanks to the advanced technology and experiments and studies, we can go to parlors or salons for hot oils smelling great after and there's the improved shampoo and conditioner to make our hair look better without spending much!

Some people really pays much to keep their hair beautiful, shiny and healthy, but we can also have that to a lesser or cheaper expense.
Here are some cheap tips,

• Trim the ends of you hair once a month to keep from split ends,
• Brush your hair when you wake up and before you go to sleep for a hundred times (believe me it still works),
• Don't forget to apply conditioner for your hair after shampooing and when you condition your hair leave the conditioner for a minute or two,
• Don't tie your hair if it's still wet and when you tie you hair,
• Tie it loosely so it won't be wavy (this are for those who have straight hair)
• Don't blow dry your hair too often.

If possible avoid chemical applications on your hair. I know most women go to salons to have their hair relax or rebonds or hair cellophane, hair spa, hot oil, etc., it's best to do it just one at a time every after six months so that your hair won't be damaged, cause there are a lot of cases of damaged hair due to improper hair care.

Over the past years I've already done lots of styles on my hair, I had a straight black hair, straight colored hair, straight streaked hair, short layered hair, bangs, short and long curly or permed hair. The style which is hard to maintain is the curly long hair, it usually takes me an hour to fix it, every time I have an appointment i make sure i have a 2 hours alloted time for bath, hair, makeup, getting dressed the longest time of it, I spend on my hair. That's why I just recently cut my hair straight and short cause it takes much of my time. One good thing about my long curly hair is that, it's really nice and I feel like a goddess, everywhere I go, people say something nice about my hair and some women envy it, one thing they don't realize is how hard it is to keep it that way. One great advice that I can give and that sure would really work is that no matter what hairstyle you have as long as you know how to carry it, how to project it, how to flaunt it you would look gorgeous! If you want to be beautiful, start within yourself.....feel beautiful because we all are.

It really pays to check the label

For most women, part of their morning and evening routines involve a skincare regimen of applying creams, moisturizers, tonics, lotions,etc.....Women do this to combat the signs of aging, and to maintain youthful looks and beautiful skin! However, some women don't consider what is in the products they are using.
Some women probably do not realize that what they are putting on their skin may actually be undermining what they are trying to prevent to begin with. In fact the average woman puts twelve products on her skin daily, most of which maintain harmful chemical preservatives. Some say that beauty is only skin deep. Nonsense! I believe that true beauty is a reflection of true health, and true health begins deep inside each and every cell in the body. But true health and true beauty have an outer component, which is why we require protection from harmful environmental elements. The fact is, you simply cannot obtain a healthy body if your skin isn't healthy. And your skin can't be healthy if your are subjecting it to toxic substances that are ultimately harmful your body."

How can they be sure they are using the very best products on their skin so they can be healthy inside and out?

Here are 7 tips to assist in this process:
1. Be very aware of what is in skincare products. Use products that are all natural as much as possible.
2. Drink plenty of water! Water hydrates skin and hair as well as flushes toxins out of the body.
3. Look for products that contain Dermal Surface Renewal Technology. DSR smooths away existing signs of aging such as laugh lines, crows feet, and dullness.
4. Find products with Proteo-C and Proflavonol-T. These two vitamins protect the skin from premature aging caused by the sun, pollution, and other environmental factors. They also provide advanced nutrition to the skin to keep it appearing smooth and firm.
5. Use products that have regenisomes. Regenisomes penetrate the skin to speed cell renewal after sun exposure. They also use the light of photosomes to undo sun damage, and have ultrasomes to renew skin while sleeping.
6. If possible, use products that are paraben free. Parabens are synthetic chemical preservatives that are widely used in personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, hair styling products, make-up, facial masks, skin lotions and creams, and deodorants.
7. Limit stress or learn to manage it effectively. Stress is harmful both emotionally and physically. Find that stress reliever activity that works best and use it on a daily basis!

Follow the above 7 tips to true beauty and health and always check the label before applying any of the products to you skin. “It really pays to check the Label”
