9 tips to keep your beautiful hair healthy


1. Massage your scalp often. You can do this everyday before styling your locks; everytime you oil your locks and when you wash your locks. The massage helps increase blood supply to the scalp ensuring more nutrients needed for hair growth, also massage works as a stress reliever and remember no stress increases hair growth.
2. Avoid products with harmful chemicals that destroy your scalp and/or hair. Rule of thumb, if it's not safe for kids or your skin, then it ain't good enough for your hair.
3. Don't hold your hair too tight, it causes the hair to break. Many website encourage people to use hairclips when they retwist their locks, take it from me, this IS NOT a good idea. I know you want your locks to look like they were done by a professional loctician with all the tiny hairs held in the lock, but those hair clips usually break more hair than they hold. I have lost a couple of locks from this tip on websites, please don't do it.
4. Don't use too many products on your hair simultaneously. Some products are basic others are acidic while others are neutral, if you mix all of them on your hair, they'll be reactions taking place and something will end up burning, stinking and having build up.
5. Rinse out your locks until the water is clear regardless of what you put into your locks. Unlike straight hair, locks are like sponges that suck up everything into them, so squeeze out any residue that maybe left in the lock. And I think I should add wash your locks regularly to avoid stinking locks. They stink coz of sweat from the scalp.
6. Reduce the use of too much heat on your hair, I know most of us think that this rule only applys to straight hair but it doesn't. Always going into the drier to dry your locks ain't such a great idea after all, take a walk under the sun. If you're in Scandinavia where you only see the sun like twice a year, then try and retwist your hair early mornings so that you have the whole day for it to dry. The funniest thing is, most people I know guilty of this are Nairobians who are at the equator and have the sun all year round.
6. Exercise for great blood circulation throughout your body. Good blood circulation ensures that all cells have the required nutrients to function as required, it also helps to transport the waste from your cells for excretion by other organs.
7. Sometimes, as much as you try to avoid build up, it still does occur, so try once in a while not too often to soak you hair in Apple Cider Vinegar for about 15mins in between rinses to take out the build up. Don't do it too often because vinegar is acidic and when you use it too often on your hair it will destroy the hair follicles.
8. Balanced diet, you are what you eat. Nutrients will only be transported by your blood when they are supplied to the body in the first place.
9. My last and "favouritest" tip is don't care too much it's just hair. You changed from relaxed hair to locks to be free from all the rules on relaxers, don't walk in the rain, don't wet your hair, treat it every 2weeks, etc now you're locked and you got even more rules that's not how freedom works. I think the only reason free form locks, grow longer and waaayy healthier than most "modern" locks is cause the free forms only have the basic care, they are clean and oiled the rest is left to the hair.

Easy Summer Hair

Summer brings a host of pleasures—days at the beach, languid afternoons and casual dinners alfresco. It’s also a time to simplify your beauty routine so you can clock more hours relaxing. One way to pare it down is to embrace what the weather can do for your hair, says celebrity hairstylist Serge Normant, who created the carefree styles shown here on Jessica Alba. We call these soft, ultrafemimine looks Fantastic Four(also the name of the movie Alba stars in this July) because they take so little time to create and work best after a day out doors, when the wind or the surf have given your strands a little texture. “You can skip a shampoo and your hair will end up looking even sexier.” says Normant. A global creative consultant for John Frieda. Normant knows a thing or two about gorgeous hair. He frequently styles Julia Roberts’s and Julianne Moore’s tresses. But don’t take this word. Try these looks and see for yourself how effortlessly gorgeous your hair can be.

FAQ: Are there any natural solutions for menstrual cramos

Q: Are there any natural solutions for menstrual cramos?
A: Essential fatty acid supplements may give you some relief. Though your cramps could be caused by your uterus being out of position and, in that case. Mayan abdominal massage may be worth trying. Since your uterus is held in place by ligaments, it can be displaced by anything from high-impact aerobics to taking a fall to having a baby. And a misaligred uterus can be the root cause of a number of symptoms, including menstrual cramps. During a 90-minute session, after discussing your health history with you, the therapist massages your abdomen to determine where you uterus is, then gently works on both your diaphragm and the area around your back, sacrum and your glutes to realign you.Even more, keep your style with styling tools is better. Depending on how severe your symptoms are, “It my take as little as one session or as long as several months to correct the uterine position and for the ligaments to gain enough strength and elasticity to keep your uterus in place.” Says Heather Heaney, a Toronto-based therapist trained in this technique.

IS HE THE ONE

Don’t say “I do” before reading this…seriously - By Cori Howard


Ask any woman: worth her gold to cocktail parties and dinner dates, and she’ll tell you that, while finding a match is one thing, quite another is figuring out if No.14 you met at speed dating more than a year ago is indeed the guy for you. Sure your taste in music and movies is compatible, you love cooking together, and you’ve talked politics and know what kind of relationship he has with his family. He can even hold his own at a dinner party with your ragtag team of friends.
  Not to get too Carrie Bradshaw here, but is he really the guy for you? And how can a girl go about finding that out?
  We’ve got two words for you: marriage prep. But don’t let that phrase scare you off. Think enriching your relationship, not necessarily taking the first step toward choosing a bouquet and hiring a DJ. After all, who has time to waste not finding out until years down the road that the guy you’re sexually attracted to, who has a successful career and a good relationship with his mom actually wants to retire at age 40 and travel the world on a shoestring? How hanged are your values—really?
  We all know this isn’t conversation you toss out over sashimi one right. You want to explore these topics, but you don’t want to explore these topics, but you don’t want to burn them into insurmountable issues that erode your communication or, worse, derail your relationship altogether. And that’s where marriage prep classes come in.
  Mostly, these courses are for couples that, if they’re not already engaged, are thinking long term. Some couples get to that point in six months. For others, it may take six years. The courses—which can range from a one-day $100 program to a weekend retreat costing nearly $1,000 are open to couples in any phase of their relationship, but marriage-prep teachers find it’s predominantly attracting couples on the verge of making the big decision: this is my life partner—wedding included, or not. As one Richmond, B.C., therapist/teacher, Benno Dreger, says: “I find I mostly see couples coming after the disillusionment sets in. They are wondering where the person they thought they had met has gone. And they want to find that person again.”
What started as a mandatory religious practice has now gone mainstream. Secular courses are proliferating across Canada, with one Toraonto therapist, Brian Murray, seeing as many as 800 couples a year.”We get some referrals from the clergy,” says Murray, a Toraonto marriage and family therapist and former pastor,” but, more and more, couples are being referred by friends.”

Easy Budget Methods




I haven’t written about finances in awhile, because these days I barely think about them.

That’s because for several years, I focused on getting out of debt — and these days, I live completely debt-free and worry little about

finances. It’s a beautiful thing.

However, recently a reader asked me to write about Simple Budgeting, and so I thought I’d revisit the topic. I’ll talk about how I deal with

finances these days, and then a Simple Budgeting method for those who aren’t exactly debt-free yet.

How I Deal with Finances

As I said, these days my finances barely register on my brain. Now that I’m out of debt, it’s not a major issue for me, and I’ve automated

most of my finances.

Here’s what I do:

1. Income is streamed into my checking account automatically. My income is all electronic, so I never deal with checks. In a couple cases

I’ve purposely set up electronic payments when previously I was sent checks.

2. Savings & investments are automatically taken from the checking. If it’s not automatic, I might forget about it. Forgetting about it is a

good thing when it’s automatic though — I will check every few months and see how my savings and investments have grown.

3. I often make major payments all at once in the beginning of the year. Because I’ve been able to grow my savings account, now that I have

zero debt payments, I have a good cushion so that I can pay things like rent or other major expenses all at once in the beginning of the year.

This way I don’t worry about the payments each month, and I don’t spend money I might need for these payments.

4. Other bill payments are made automatically. If I don’t pay in one big lump sum, I’ll set up automatic monthly payments. I never worry

about paying bills. I just make sure there is enough in my checking account at all times to cover the total amount of my bills.

Make Lifestyle in Zen

Change Your Lifestyle from Single


After last week’s article on How I Changed My Life, In Four Lines, I had many people ask the same question:

“I want to change a few different things in my life — health, debt, productivity, etc. Do I really need to do them separately, focusing on one thing only and nothing else until that change is done? Even if they’re in different areas?”

Yes, I would recommend you focus on one change at a time. Here’s why.

It’s very hard to make changes that stick, especially if you’re trying to focus on more than one. In my experiments, I’ve found very consistently that changing multiple things at once doesn’t work very well. Your focus gets spread thin, and in the long run you end up failing to stick to any of the changes. If you’ve tried and failed at multiple changes at once before, you’ll know what I mean.

So do one change at a time, for at least a month. Six weeks is better. Then you can focus on one more change, and so on. That’ll be about six to eight changes a year — changes that will stick. They will last much, much longer than ones that you apply thinner focus to.

What you’ll find is that this is enough. These little changes will really add up over time, and you’ll end up with major changes in your life after a year or two. Or you can just change your hairstyle first.

This method is effective. I’ve used it for six years to great success, and many of my readers have too. Most people use the less effective method of multi-changing, and fail to stick with things, and blame it on their “lack of discipline”. No, it’s just a less effective method than single-changing.

Patience is tough. We are geared to wanting lots of changes right now, and waiting seems too hard. We want instant gratification, because television and marketing has taught us that this is best. It isn’t. Waiting and doing things slowly is much more satisfying, I promise.

And most of us will read advice like this and say, “No, this doesn’t apply to me. I can do better than most people.” And maybe that’s true. My advice applies to people who have had trouble changing their lives. Those who are good at it might not need to follow the single-changing method. But most of us should do one change at a time.

Try it, and see what happens. I dare you.

Magic Makeup Tips for Face

This season, the look is clean and natural; the effect is one of ease. On the runways of Michael Kors, Stella McCartney, and Alexander McQueen, pale, neutral shades on eyes and subtle pops of color on lips were the way to go. We talked to four top Chicago-based makeup artists-Debbie Jacks, Cammy Kelly, DarcyMcGrath, and Pieter Verhoeven-for the latest tips and trends to freshen up your face. "Spring is all about a new beginning, so put your darker colors away and treat yourself to some new colors," says Verhoeven, a makeup artist for Ford Models. "They will brighten up your face and create a natural glow."


Back to Basics

Too much foundation can make you look artificial-a faux pas for spring's clean, natural mood. "People tend to make a mask out of their foundation," says Kelly, who has worked with celebrities such as Nicky Hilton, David Schwimmer, and Anna Nicole Smith. A hint of pale pink on the cheeks can also liven up your look.

The products: Kelly is a fan of Armani when it comes to coverage. "Its foundations are right on for spring; they're not too shiny or shimmery," she says. Try Giorgio Armani's new Designer Shaping Cream Foundation ($65) at Saks Fifth Avenue, 700 North Michigan Avenue, and Nordstrom, 55 East Grand Avenue, or Laura Mercier's Stick Foundation ($40) at selected Neiman Marcus stores for a healthy-looking base. Both contain sunscreen for those early spring days.

When The Thing Goes on by Itself!

This is a story from my friend. Remember that it's funny but you should never have a try.

We've set a date for the wedding: a Sunday next September. Yes, we're on what you'd call the marriage fast track. And no, I'm not pregnant, although a number of people—including my own brother—asked if I was when we told them our date was less than six months away.

That's one good thing about a Sunday-night wedding: If we had wanted to say our I dos on a Saturday, we would have had to wait at least a year and my hair will get longer that i have to have a new wedding haircut design. Most of the places we've looked into are booked for Saturdays well into 2009. (I kissed the thought of a destination wedding goodbye last summer, after witnessing the headaches of hosting a big out-of-town to-do.) The Fiancé and I figure why wait, especially when—ahem—one of us is about to turn 34?

As of now, we're deciding between The Ritz-Carlton and The Drake—yeah, I know, a boring hotel wedding. "Funny for a girl who says she never envisioned herself having a traditional wedding," Seth said to me Thursday, on our way to see Cat Power, Colbie Caillat, and John Legend in a private concert at the Vic. True, but now that I'm here, there are more than a few reasons why a hotel wedding makes sense: a) these hotels have hosted countless weddings and know the drill better than even the most controlling wedding coordinator; b) a hotel is a one-stop shop for getting ready, pre- and post-nuptial partying, and provides rooms for out-of-towners and suburbanites; and c) it's just plain easy.

We can't really go wrong with either venue. The Ritz is the most modern of the more traditional hotels. That enormous crystal chandelier is magnificent; I like the location; and the city view isn't bad, either. If we're staying local, I'd like to incorporate the city of Chicago somehow, since we were both born and raised here.

And then we saw the Gold Coast Room at the Drake Hotel, and I got goose bumps—the true litmus test that my bride gene is developing. The grandiose ballroom, lined by ornate gold pillars, is very dramatic, as is the view overlooking Lake Shore Drive. Chicago doesn't get much prettier.

Since both hotels work with the same kosher caterer and can accommodate our rapidly growing guest list, the decision is up to us.

Did I mention I'm terrible at making big decisions?

This is the part where I ask for your help. Has anyone had, or been to, a wedding at the Ritz or the Drake? Did you love or hate it—and why? Please post your comments below. I need all the help I can get.

The ACCIDENTAL BIDE

-Think you and your live-in guy aren’t truly committed? Try splitting up and you may be surprise by the law says By Michele Sponagle 
“I don’t believe in marriage.”
   My friend Marissa”, who’s successful stockbroke, announced to a group of friends one night over cockrails at a downtown Toraonto lounge. “I just don’t want all the bassles that come with it –like drivorce,” she added. That comment struck me as funny, since Marissa’s boyfriend, a night manager with a medium haircut at a pizza joint, had been living with her for four year. “Guess what?” I chimed in. “In the eyes of the law, you are married for all intents and purposes. What’s yours is has what’s his is yours,” Her face went white and her jaw dropped “Congratulations,” I said.  “You’re accidentally married.” It’s amazing how few women know that cohabitation an put you in a similar position as a legally wedded wife—for better or worse. Living together seems like a more attractive option than marriage for many. In fact, the 2011 Statistics Canada Census report says that 12.8 percent of couples are common law, compared to just 3.9 percent in 1981, when the government started counting cohabiting twosomes. What you should know, though, is that in those intervening 25 years, a lot has changed. “The legal differences between marriage and cohabitation are melting before our eyes,” says Lloyd Duhaime, a family law lawyer in Victoria and the creator of Dubaime org, a legal-information site. “Those differences are getting smaller and smaller.”

All about Karen Kawahara


makeup artist: Karen Kawahara Most people don't wind up powdering celebrity noses by a fluke. But for Kawahara it "just kind of happened." After working as an Ann Taylor saleswoman, she got a job 13 years ago as neceptionist at Armondo Salon in L.A, filling in occasionally as a makeup artist. "I'd never done it before and was self-taught through trial and error. I would put makeup on someone and go, 'Ew, that doesn't work!' and take it off!" But eventually she started liking her work, and so did others. Her first celebrity client was Sandra Bernhard, who hired Kawahara to do her makeup for an appearance. "She got compliments and I started getting booked on jobs," Kawahara says. "Most makeup artists get experience working on models, but I worked on real women, so I developed extra tricks for correcting flaws and enhancing what's there." Her expertise has brought her stars from Hayek to Claire Danes to Meg Ryan.

Karen's trademark Though she hasa light touch, she doesn't confine herself to one signature look because 'each woman is different and her mood and style changes day to day. Good makeup requires an integrated approach, complementing hair and day. Good kaeup requires an integrated approach, complementing hair and clothes," she says. "With a forties dress we might do red lips [as on Julianna Margulies, below]; for a sexy mood, sulty lashes and eyes."

Her philosophy More does't mean better. "A few dabs of color is enough for a face most of the time," she says. "I see women piling on makeup in airports and restaurants or in the car. Every woman looks best with a fresh, clea face and a bit of lively color. You want to enhance what you'v got, not cover it all up."

Karen's Tips and Tricks For Makup

  • Enhance skin tone with tinted powder. To even out your complexion, dust translucent powder over sheer foundation. If you're sallow, use a pink powder, try yellow if you're ruddy.
  • Find the right undereye concealer. Choose a moisturizing formula for delicate undereye skin, not a drying one meant for blemishes. To offset any blue cast use concealer with a peachy tone for light skin or red for dark skin. Anything too yellow will give the area an unflattening greenish hue.
  • Blend shadows well."Your eyes don't look like part of your face when colors are just sitting on top of the lids unblended," she says. Soften hues more by brushing translucent powder over them.

The Look of CHANEL

The day before a fashion show is usually a designer's sweet hell, A waterfall of coffee and a flatbed of cigarettes fuel a fitfully controlled frenzy of pinning, preening and purging  Request to interview a designer the day before his runway show? Why not ask for front-row seats to the Oscars while you're at it? Your odds are about the same. Unless you wan to talk to Karl Lagerfeld. In fact the instructions are to come see him while he's doing final fittings, when he's more relaxed. Less than 24 hours to go before the show, yet in Coco Chanel's legendary studio whith the mirrored curved staircase, two veteran fashion editors, who are also close frends, are hangging out. Rock is playing in the background. The design and production teams are milling about but ready; no pins in mouths, no voices pitched up a third. Seated at a long table, waiting for the next model to get dressed, Lagerfeld is playing with a dozen or so rings precatiously perched near his knuckles since he is also wearing driving gloves, "I think I lost one of them. Either a Buccellaty or Chrom Heats. I'm sure it fell off in a shopping bag somewhere," says the designer. "I should ask some one to find it." While he agrees the rings might say put if it weren't for the driving gloves, he says it's not worth giving them up. "Why do I wear them? Because I'm ne."
    But Lagerfeld is no more disturbed about the missing ring than he is about his imperding presentation. "Why should I be? We are professionals here," he says with abrupt matter-of-factness. "This iconic image of the designer running around, furiously draping dresses into the night, is ridiculous. Because you are in a panic doesn\t mean you are creative. It means you are not organized. How can you run a business like that?" As he speaks a model comes out. Without taking a breath or shifting position, Lagerfeld sticks this arm in ther direction and says in French that someone should shorten the skirt, It's making her look matronly. "You see," he says, "this is why you have to be organized, You need time to review, to change. Fashion can't always be about impulse. You need to plan."

    Chanel's plans have worked out beautifully since 1983, when Lagerfeld became Hair designer."The name was middle-aged," he says. "But at least it had and image. An archive. Some of these names they want to revive have nothing to recapture." By reintepreting, renovating and refreshing, Lagerfeld has made the house's bags, shoes, pins, jewelry, couture and,, of course, Chanel jacket more covetable than ever. With this gloved hand he brushes off taking credit. "Fashion is not about these two or three weeks.That's only 5 percent of the year.You need people who understand their jobs. You can make a great collection, but who cares if your company doesn\t know how to maket it or to sell it? I don't think success in fasthion is any secret. It's what happens when people work together well.|
    Lagenfeld has played welll with others for more than 50 years. "It's because I don't take myself too seriousely," he says. "I don't do this to achieve things, to enhance my social life, or make more money. I have no ulterior motive. Fashion is a greet way of life, I am not a frustrated artist. On the contrary, when you design you are working class." And the work continues, with the new backing of his Lagerfeld Gallery collection (by Tommy Hiffiger), his riotous onetime-only H&M stint, and, this season, a venture in menswear. "But not for me to wear," he insists. "I design my nightshirts. Otherwise I design for others. I prefer to be a client, to shop, to go from there to ther. I am perfect for the world of fashion becuase I propose, then I buy, I think I do both thins well. Where is the next girl? And where is that ring?"
