Regained Hair & My Confidence!

Filed under: Beauty Care, Hall Of Self Improvement, Health Hall — @ 4:40 am

The day I started noticing my receding hairline and bald spot getting bigger, I embarked on my hair loss treatment journey. I would always find ways to comb my hair in a certain way to hide my hair loss. I noticed myself wearing more caps on the weekends as I went out with my wife, acquaintances or family. Walking in to work every morning was an embarrassing experience without my hat on. Your thinking changes when you are suffering from hair loss. It is so true that you never know what you have until you lose it. That can be accurate about your hair loss.

As I looked in the mirror I began to treasure every one of the hair strands I had left. It was as if with each strand of hair I lost, so was a small percentage of my self-confidence gone as well. A friend of mine had been having the same problem as me. Yet recently he appeared so much more relaxed and I observed that it was as if his hair was growing back. I never wanted to bring it up but after a while I decided to ask. That is when he told me about Advanced Hair Studio. With just a few treatments my friend Jim had not only regrown his hair, but his confidence as well. After seeing what Josh has accomplished from Advanced Hair, I made up my mind to pay them a visit.

I have to admit that I was a little sceptical at first. But within a few weeks the outcomes were apparent. Not only on my head, but in my attitude. I began to lose the caps on the weekends and I quickly started to feel better about myself. My wife who has been unhappy about my lack of interest in our relationship began to notice the change in that department as well. It is amazing how just a few visits to the Advanced Hair Studio had begun to change my life as a whole. I always felt as if the first thing people noticed about me was my bald spot. Now, I am not terrified to look people in the eyes again as I have my full set of self esteem back.

Advance Hair Studio has not only given me back my hair little by little, but a big piece of my life as well. So, if anyone is experiencing hair loss I highly recommend them. Don’t let baldness take your confidence away.

Guiding a Friend's Quest for the Perfect Wigs

Filed under: Beauty Care, Hall Of Self Improvement, Health Hall — @ 5:09 am

Most never imagined the radiant Caroline Upton, our family friend, could ever accessorize with lace front wigs. Her iconic hair added so much to her femininity. Have you seen her lately? The one and only will always be celebrated for her style. Not many in town realize she lives confidently wearing human hair wigs. Guess it’s no secret anymore.

When we were kids growing up in our home town of Scottsdale, we always took turns winning Miss “SCH” four years running. In our twenties her medical hair loss took its toll and her hair wouldn’t be the same. I did hint at these synthetic wigs. Oh well, it didn’t matter much. What a strong soul, she somewhat obnoxiously fully owned her innate beauty.

Appearing at her fiance’s baseball championship, we flirted with the crowd until a numbskull clumsily hit the puck (or whichever thing that is) at us. With quick reflexes she dove for the ball and her hand-knitted “head sweater” (her idea) flew right off, revealing her thinning hair. No big deal, she walked over and delivered it to the game official. She’s that kind of girl.

But, there’s two sides to every coin. Not too long after at our semi-monhtly mid-day lemonade chat, where she very sincerely said that she would rather make do with a shorn head out of anger. She dare not spend money on human hair wigs, even if she knew it was a good idea. She then the punk changed the subject and begged that I drop it. So I did.

I wanted to help so bad. The next morning, I called about getting her a new wig. After a long deliberation we both came to the obvious conclusion: we’d buy each other wigs I used my credit card, and it was worth it.

She and I were amazed by the fashionable styles. We never imagined that synthetic wigs are so professionally crafted for a lot of people. These synthetic wigs brought out her youthful spirit. I coordinated a completely creative set of outfits around our wigs. We stand together, and that will surely endure. Last Christmas she sent me her thanks for her human hand-crafted human hair wig, and explained it encourages a real positive image for many occasions. It’s my pleasure to see her reclaim her beauty. I love her so much!

Mothers Know Self Respect despite Medical Hair Loss

Filed under: Beauty Care, Hall Of Self Improvement, Health Hall — @ 8:23 am

Comparing wigs on the Internet won’t feel like anything to dread. Trust me, I’m a well-to-do professional tolerating god-given medical hair loss. I remain vibrant because only my dear friends know I regularly and naturally enhance my look with a couple well-done lace front wigs that I value dearly. Something tells me it won’t take long to discover your hidden personality with the look of well-made human hair wigs. They do wonders for so many celebrities who depend on them.

There’s a good chance a lot of you have had the same concerns as I did. “Can it match my hairline?” along with “Will my scalp breathe underneath it?” were my biggest concerns, most definitely. These questions are valid if you take a deep breath so you can find comfort in how many fantastic fitting selections are on the market. Womens wigs made from natural hair, give women in every business with confidence. There’s little to dwell endlessly in! Never seen a well done wig? This is due to the fact that people never even know it apart from someone’s naturally growing hair.

Here’s a few wig shopping basics a woman should weigh. Without a doubt the truly natural wigs are human hair wigs. They are roughly 2 to 3 times more expensive than fake wigs with good reason. They are incredibly better looking! I always sing their praises. But if its just too much for the pocketbook, imitation hair pieces are not a bad option at all and worth of your consideration.

I spring for the natural human hair wigs for a couple different traits. They last longer and I dye them to match my natural red color. Not to mention, they don’t itch my shoulders.

Whichever you choose, do your homework to find a full bodied hair piece that does your image justice, so you can enjoy it confidently! Feel better about your appearance, and even better, be confident with it on. Like for any hair style, your wig reflects who you are.

Take care!

story of us

Filed under: Beauty Care, Dating, Relationship Stuff — @ 11:05 am

Story of Us Together we created a world of destruction, you and I Built out of never wanting to fail We were together but always alone Our little house, dressed in gray Rooms filled with the ghosts of neglected house plants Filled with things that were yours and mine but never ours Things that had seen the inside of suitcase, felt cold grass at 2 am Things that had been thrown from windowsbroken and repaired and broken again Placed back on shelves , never quite sitting the same Hung back in closets over flowing with good intentions Fading like a scar, healed but never gone A memory frozen in flesh. (wow. I remember when that happened) They tell a story of how hard we tried. They draw a map to all of our soft spots Places we cover with extra layers of clothing Places we try and protect One still night, when the wind could moan no more, We died Gently rocking in deaths boney arms , we gave in. Both frozen in the winter of never wanting to change Spring came after death was nothing new. We stepped out into the sunshine with new skin and long hair With eyes no longer liquid Reborn as just patches of glare Together we are like seedlings wrapped in fertile soil Sprouting from the warm ashes of what we used to be.

Gum Disease - Treatments

Filed under: Beauty Care, Health Hall — @ 12:53 pm

Untreated, gum disease can have serious health consequences that go far beyond the teeth and gums. The good news is that when caught in its early stages, gum disease - more accurately known as periodontitis - is highly treatable.

The most effective treatment for periodontitis is of course prevention. Conscientiously following a regiment of oral hygiene that includes brushing (at least twice daily, and preferably after every meal), flossing and use of anti-plaque dental rinse will go a long way towards preventing gum disease from developing in the first place.

This said, the most common treatment of periodontitis is root planing and curettage. Because peritonitis is caused by bacteria and the resulting build-up of plaque, the best first step is to simply remove the bacteria. Curettage is a fancy term for cleaning the teeth underneath the gum line. The periodontist (a dentist with specialized training in this area) uses a device called a curette to remove the bacteria and the plaque that is responsible for the inflammation. If this treatment is successful, the disease will be gone and the gum tissue will heal, reattaching itself to the tooth enamel.

If the disease has progressed and there are deep pockets left after the plaque has been cleaned out, a surgical procedure called gingivectomy, or removal of the damaged gum tissues. Gingivoplasty is another procedure used to reconstruct gums that are beyond healing. This may involve borrowing some tissue from the palate and is quite an involved procedure.

In a flap procedure, the gum tissue is actually lifted away from the surface of the tooth. This is performed for cases in which gum disease has affected the actual bone tissues underlying the gums. Once the gum tissue has been lifted, all plaque and infected tissue is removed and the bone actually reconstructed to look and function as it once did. Afterwards, the gum tissue is replaced and sutures are applied. Healing can take up to three weeks, and the patient should expect some pain and discomfort. Beyond this however, complications associated with this type of surgery are rare.

Patients who have been treated for gum disease may have antibiotics prescribed as well. Such antibiotic drugs should be used sparingly, however as bacteria is infamous for its ability to adapt, thus causing the antibiotic to lose its effectiveness; it is not a substitute for treatment and prevention.

Affordable Laser Hair Removal

Filed under: Beauty Care — @ 3:58 am

With the rapid growth of laser hair removal centers, competition has spawned a number of clinics that offer services for a lot less than standard costs. In fact, the offers they come up with are at times preposterous. However, there are some clinics that stay true to their word and actually give good treatment for a little money. Here are two examples.

American Laser Centers, a group of laser hair removal clinics in Arizona, offer services at bargain costs. Their treatment is quite effective; in fact they offer a two-year guarantee after the final treatment. Their methods seem modern and reliable. If there is re-growth of hair in the area of treatment before the two-year period, then the centre removes it free of charge.

Affordable Laser Hair Clinic in Arizona is another laser hair removal center that offers minimal prices for their treatments. The prices are calculated per treatment, and they rarely use more than five treatments on a patient.

However, established laser hair removal clinics and centers with good reputations hardly ever offer any discount fees. Patients generally rely upon their expertise and know-how and are willing to part with the money for treatments. It is advisable to look for the affordable laser hair removal center with a proven track record rather than opt for one with the lowest cost. Clinics that exclusively cater to laser treatments, rather than those renting salon spaces, provide their clients with the guarantee of individual attention, experience and a competent, caring, professional staff.

Do Good Deeds & Get Rewarded? A Universal Mystery Uncovered

Filed under: Beauty Care — @ 2:32 am

Do you believe in the idea of “abundance” or do you see the whole notion as just a load of “airy-fairy” nonsense spouted by “new age” goody goodies?

As you’ll soon discover - I firmly believe that giving is an essential part of an expert business’s marketing mix.

I’ve read plenty on the subject of giving in order to gain, and have practiced it since I launched my first business in 1997, because it just seems to work so well.

But nothing I’ve heard or read in this time has ever been able to explain how giving turns into gain. If you’re like me then you may be unwilling to just accept the wishy-washy abundance explanation that 2+2=5. We all know that 2+2=4!

So what’s really going on?

I think I have a good idea why giving works so well and I’m going to share that with you here.

Here’s my explanation of why doing good deeds will improve the success of your business and bring you more wealth and happiness…

The Universal Law of Abundance Uncovered…

In my book entitled, The Gorillas Want Bananas, I share the top 7 things that Lean Marketers do to be successful. 2 of the 7 activities that I recommend are based around giving…

1. Giving Referrals

2. Giving Freebies

But, how can it be that giving stuff away brings you more business success and profit?

I’ll begin to answer this by first telling you about an excellent book (and now film)…

Pay It Forward

Reuben St. Clair, the teacher protagonist in the book Pay It Forward, starts a movement with a voluntary, extra-credit assignment:

THINK OF AN IDEA FOR WORLD CHANGE,
AND PUT IT INTO ACTION

Trevor, a 12 year old student, thinks of an idea…

“You see, I do something real good for three people. And then when they ask how they can pay it back, I say they have to Pay It Forward. To three more people. Each. So nine people get helped. Then those people have to do twenty-seven.”

He turned on the calculator, punched in a few numbers.

“Then it sort of spreads out, see. To eighty-one. Then two hundred forty-three. Then seven hundred twenty-nine. Then two thousand, one hundred eighty-seven. See how big it gets?”

The maths, are based on the law of exponential growth using powers of three…

* Let’s say you can do three good deeds this month.

* This time next year there will be 3^12 good deeds done in one month. That’s 531,441 (over half a million in one month)

* Just think… what if 100 people started with 3 deeds in that first month?

Trevor also observes:

“It doesn’t have to be a big thing. It can just seem that way, depending on whom you do it for.”

The 3 Vital Ingredients of The Abundance Puzzle
There are 2 things we’ll take from the story above and an additional one, based on The Small World Effect, that ties it all together and brings it full circle so that we get our rewards…

1. Viral Growth

This exponential thing isn’t something that was invented along with the Internet - it’s behind epidemics, whether they’re social movements, trends or diseases. Getting people to join your movement by passing things forward can create dramatic exposure and quickly.

2. Small Deeds that Seem Big

The idea that the deed only has to be “perceived as big” is the key to how you can give referrals, provide high value stuff and do seemingly huge favours without even thinking about the need for a payback… By the way, it’s important that you approach this without any expectation of a direct payback from the people you help - if you don’t you’ll be frustrated.

3. It’s a Small World

You’ve probably already heard of the, Small World Effect, 6 degrees of separation, or Kevin Bacon Game. They’re essentially telling us the same thing… It’s the idea that we are all linked to everyone else by 5 intermediaries or less. Recent theoretical work suggests that the number may or may not be 6, but it is certainly small not 100 for example.

Just think about it. If you know 300 people who each know 300 people who each know 300 people etc then it doesn’t take long to hit the whole population of earth within about 6 steps.

Keep these three things in mind and…

Your Reward Will Come

So let’s agree that everyone is linked by 6 steps or less. Doing favours and encouraging the recipients to act in the same way when dealing with others means that your reward will happen from unexpected sources and more quickly than you could imagine.

You’ll become a benefactor of the very thing you’ve started, only there will be far more good things coming your way than you initially set in motion. This is the combination of quick viral growth and a small world.

So, your marketing can relax from the usual and frustrating ‘what’s in it for me?’ approach to one where you feel good, look good and get rewarded naturally.

You’ll also soon discover that the more you give the more you receive so there’s no reason why you should stop at doing just 3 good deeds…

Your Chance To Take Part In My “Pay It Forward” Experiment…
One of my favourite good deeds is giving F’REE information to people. So, I’d like to start my own Pay It Forward movement by giving you 2 F’REE eBooks.

If You Haven’t Already Then Download Them Here…

Rather than expecting anything in return from you, all I ask is that you do 3 or more good deeds for people you know. The easiest one being to share this link, www.leanmarketing.co.uk with 3 or more contacts who might benefit from these F’REE eBooks too.

So, get involved and see how long it is before you’re good deed is rewarded. Then plan to start your own Pay It Forward movement and be sure to tell me what you’re doing.

Speak Soon,

Makeup and Skin Care

Filed under: Beauty Care — @ 9:01 am

‘Make up and skin care’ is generally regarded as women’s forte. Men seldom indulge in ‘Make up and skin care’. Many men do care for their skin but make up is really alien to most men. Treating make up and skin care as different topics wouldn’t make sense; after all, make up will work only if the skin is healthy. So how do you exercise make up and skin care, together? Here are some tips for make up and skin care:

1. Always have skin care on mind, whether you are buying products for make up or actually applying them onto your skin after you have bought them. So what you are buying is a ‘make up and skin care’ product, not just a make up product. Check the ingredients to see if it contains things that you might be allergic to. Also check if it contains high concentration chemicals that can harm your skin.

2. ‘Make up and skin care’ is also about testing the products before using them. So, apply the make up on a small patch of skin e.g. earlobes and check how your skin reacts to it.

3. Keep track of expiry date on your make up products and never use them beyond the expiry date. In fact some products (e.g. vitamin C based products), if not stored properly, get spoilt much earlier than the expiry date.

4. Cleanliness is an important part of make up and skin care procedure. Sharpen your eye-liners regularly and keep all your makeup equipment clean at all times. You might fix a date, each month, for overhauling of your equipment. As part of cleanliness, your make up and skin care procedure should also include keeping your hair clean at all times.

5. Nail care is another important aspect of make up and skin care. Use a good quality nail polish and always keep your nails clean. Once you are done with cleaning and polishing your nails, you should rub in cuticle oil at the edges of the nail.

6. If you have deep-set eyes, you should use a liquid eye liner instead of a pencil one. This will prevent smudging at the deep edges of your eye-lid.

7. If you have a skin disorder e.g. acne, you should not apply heavy or chemical based make up. Consult your dermatologist if you are not sure about the make up products that you can use while you have acne or other skin disorder. Never try to squeeze pimples/ acne. Remember that make up and skin care should not conflict each other.

8. Use a mild make up remover (instead of just washing it away).

9. Another important ‘make up and skin care’ procedure is the following golden rule: “Never sleep with your make up on”

10. While applying a deodorant, make sure that you maintain the recommended distance between the nozzle and your skin (as mentioned on the deodorant pack).

So, make up and skin care should always go hand in hand. Do not try to treat make up and skin care differently.
