MAKEUP SECRETS2

Soft, Colored smudged Eye

INTRO: 

All eyes will be on the smoky eyes this Sunday. It's always a way for an actress to make

a dramatic entrance onto the red carpet. But this year, we'll be seeing a shift to a softer, smudged

eye achieved by color. Black and gray smoky eyes can look beautiful if done right, but if not - they

can make eyes appear smaller and can be a bit too harsh and "edgy". Also with a smoky eye,

women don't know what to do with their lips - they know to leave them neutral but they don't know

what shade of neutral lipstick to choose. But there are a few tricks all women can turn to pull off

this look. So don't be intimidated anymore!

Tip 1: Turn to color

Tools: Stila Smoky Eye Talking Palettes in various eye enhancing shades ($40 at Sephora and

Sephora.com) Smokey eyes are much easier to achieve with color eye shadows. And, colors can

also serve to play up your own eye color to make eyes appear wider and brighter, making you

look more youthful and well rested. Many brands even do the guess work for you with palettes to

coordinate with your eye color like Stila which has "talking palettes" than even talk you through

application so its goof proof. For example, on Noora here I am playing up her rich brown eyes

with a purple smoky eye. The result is drama, but softer than it would be with black shadow. If

you have blue eyes, do a gold/brown smoky eye and hazel eyes look great with purple tones. The

secret to this look is to layer a few different shades of the same color and then blend, blend,

blend. That's the key here to soften and "smoke" the look.

What should your lipstick be like when you wear a smudged eye?

Tip 2: The perfect neutral lip, every time

Tools: To not compete with each other, smoky eyes should always be paired with a neutral lip. If

you're lost as to which lipstick would work the best, a makeup artist secret is to just use your

concealer and you can't go wrong. The tone will be perfect for your lip color automatically to mute

the pink undertones just enough. Just use your finger to dab a little concealer onto the lips lightly.

You can then follow with a clear or neutral gloss, or leave lips matte. It's good to have a concealer

with a few different tones in it to that you can ensure you get it right every time.

MAKEUP SECRETS1

Red Glossy Lip, Matte Skin

Trend: Red lips are going to be huge this season at the Oscars and they always make a

statement - whether you want to look sophisticated, edgy, classic, etc. But many women are

afraid of red lips for 3 reasons: 1.) They don't think lip color will last through the night, 2.) they

don't think they can even wear red/find the right shade for them and 3.) they don't know what to

do with the rest of the face to not look too "done". So here's some tips and tricks so anyone can

have their "red Lip" moment on the red carpet:

Tip 1: Make red lips last

Tools: Bowl of water, Cherry Jell-o Packs, Q-Tips

Stain lips with Jell-o! That's right. Ever notice how kids mixing Jell-o get red all over their hands?

Cherry Jell-o stains and stays put. I use this trick to set the foundation for a red lip. I then go over

the red stained lips with a rich, red gloss glossy red lips are very of the moment right now vs. a

matte red lip. Red gloss is also more wearable for women because it reflects light and doesn't

feel as severe. To apply the Jello-o stain, simply dip a Q-tip in water to moisten it, then dip it into

Jell-o powder. Apply to lips like a stain. This lays a "foundation" for setting your red lipstick or

gloss. And yes - any woman can wear red - here's how:

Tip 2: Finding the right red shade for you

Tools: Prescriptives Custom Blend Red Lipgloss - in 5-10 various shades of red 

 wet&wild red lipsticks

A celebrity beauty secret? Makeup artists rarely use just one shade of lipstick on clients. Rather,

it's all about blending together a few different shades to create the perfect red. They even leave

their clients behind with a mixed little pot of their custom color. To have this A-List treatment

yourself, get makeup custom blended just like a celeb by a brand like Prescriptives (they do this

nationwide at their counters). You can even pick the finish - matte, glossy, shimmery, etc. This

way, you'll have a pro make the right red lipstick for you with the correct undertones, etc. Or if you

want, go to the drugstore and buy a bunch of Never be scared of red again!

Tip 3: What do I do with the rest of my face?

I love a classic red lip with a matte face - always classic and works on everyone. All women

should to use a mineral power to stay shine-free - KEY if you are going to be photographed a lot.

Mineral powder is key because as you sweat it won't "bead up" and settle into fine lines and

creases and you can reapply and it won't build up and look heavy. Many brands make great

mineral powders like Laura Mercier and for a budget beauty choice, Physicians Formula who has

a no-spill Mineral Wear Perfecting Concentrate Pen. The best part is that it's perfect for your redcarpet

moment - it's literally the size of a pen so you can keep in even your tiniest evening clutch.

Healthy & Stylish Hair

Working out makes you feel good and is good for you. You

want neat and stylish hair because it shows a positive self

attitude and makes you feel good about the way you look. Are

you afraid to exercise until you sweat because your hair may

“go back”? Some women report that hair concerns keep them

from exercising. You can be fit and keep a beautiful hairstyle

too by protecting your hair and then keeping it healthy.

You can prevent sweat damage to your hair during exercise

by controlling moisture and salt buildup. Salty buildup causes

your hair to break, shed, become dull, or become dry

Care Tips

- Wash your hair with a mild,

pH-balanced shampoo at least

once each week to remove

salt buildup.

-Condition your hair every

week with a moisturizing

protein conditioner. A good

conditioner disappears when

you rub your hands together.

- Avoid over-processing! Limit

your use of blow dryers and

curling irons.

Remember: if you have a scalp problem, you may want to

check with a dermatologist.

Suggest

Pull your hair away

from your face and

neck when you

exercise.

- Leave part of your

hair unwrapped to

breathe.

- Get regular precision

cuts or trims to

maintain style shape.

- Talk to your hair

dresser to help

choose the right hair

care products.

- Apply a natural oil to

your scalp as needed.

Skin Care

Skin care begins with a healthy lifestyle.

• Drink plenty of water

• Eat a balanced diet

• Take a daily vitamin

• Exercise regularly

• Get enough sleep

• Avoid smoking

• Avoid use of tanning beds

• Minimize use of alcohol

• Manage daily stress

Skin Cleansing

For daily hygiene, use a mild cleanser. Remove facial make up

completely. Use lukewarm water for all cleansing. Rinse the skin

thoroughly to remove cleansing materials from the skin surface. Gently

pat dry and avoid rubbing.

Skin Moisturizing

In "moisturizing," water is added to the skin. Moisturized skin is more

flexible and pliable than dry skin. Application of moisturizer immediately

after washing or bathing helps keep water within the skin. Skin

moisturizers: (1) improve hydration (moisture content) and (2) add a

"protective" or occlusive layer on the skin surface to help hold moisture

within the top layers and keep it from being lost to the environment.

The protective layer provides a barrier to water loss. Therefore, water

remains in the upper layers of the epidermis and makes the stratum

corneum more flexible.

A large number of creams and lotions are available. It is useful to read

product labels to check for certain ingredients. One of the most

common ingredients for increasing hydration is glycerin, which holds

onto water within the outer layers following application. Glycerin is a

humectant type of moisturizer because it attracts and binds water in the

skin. . In dry, scaly skin, desquamation does not occur properly,

resulting in the formation of visible scales. Glycerin assists the process

of desquamation of the outer layer of stratum corneum and reduces

scaling. A second type of ingredient serves as a barrier or occlusive

when applied to the skin. These materials include petrolatum, mineral

oil, and certain plant oils.

They are lipid in nature and protect the skin by minimizing water loss

from the epidermis and by providing a barrier to intrusion from the

outside and to loss of water from the skin layers beneath it.

A second group of skin care materials are the alpha hydroxy acids,

known as the fruit acids (glycolic acid, lactic acid, etc.), and beta

hydroxy acids (salicylic acid). These materials create a smoother skin

surface by hydrating the surface layers and weakening and breaking

the attachments between the stratum corneum cells. This process,

known as exfoliation, assists in the removal of surface dry, scaly

patches from the surface. This process creates a smoother surface

composed to cells which are more hydrated than the dry scales that

were removed.

19. Read food labels

Reading food labels is one of the most important tools to help you make

healthy choices when grocery shopping. Once you have the knowledge to

choose nutrient dense and healthy foods, you will be able to make the right

choices to fuel your body. When reading a food label, the most important

areas to look at are the calories, servings per container, sugar, fiber, carbs,

fat and sodium. Choose foods which are high in protein and fiber and low in

sugar, fat and sodium. The servings per container can be extremely

important because many products will try to mislead you by providing the

nutrient information for a very small serving size. This is very typical for

snack foods. A bag of potato chips may only show 120 calories on the

nutrient label but the actual serving size is only 7 chips! The overall calories

for the entire bag may contain over 1,000 calories. Make sure to read the

serving per container to know the truth about the overall nutrient levels.

Also, make sure to review the list of ingredients. The ones listed first are

generally used in larger amounts so if you see things like high fructose corn

syrup, sugar or lard, then its probably best to choose a healthier alternative.

20. Focus on 500 calories per day

To lose body fat safely and keep it off, focus on creating a 500 calorie deficit

per day (below your BMR). Over the course of a week, this equals out to

3,500 calories or 1 pound. The best way to hit this 500 number every day is

to create a 250 calorie deficit through your diet and another 250 calorie

deficit through cardio exercise. Remember, you want to fuel your body with

high nutrient foods and keep your metabolism "stoked" throughout the day.

The worst thing you can do is limit your food intake too severely which will

cause your body to go into starvation mode and hold onto your body fat

reserves.

21. Pack a healthy lunch

Try packing a healthy low calorie lunch a few times a week. Not only will

you save hundreds of calories but you will also save money by making your

own meals. If you find yourself having a tendency to snack while at work,

buy a box of protein bars and throw them in the freezer at work. Protein bars

make a great snack during the day and can come in very handy when a sweet

tooth episode kicks in. Prepare your meal the night before and place it in

some Tupperware for the next day. Add a chicken breast, some vegetable

sticks and a piece of fruit and you have a perfect low calorie meal. Another

great tip is to buy a few containers of non-fat cottage cheese and store them

in the refrigerator at your office.
THE END.

16. Have a protein smoothie

A wonderful, healthy and refreshing treat is a protein smoothie. Protein

smoothies can easily replace your cravings for a milkshake and provide the

important nutrients your muscles needs to recover and grow. Pour 2 cups of

Carb Countdown milk into a blender with a few scoops of your favorite

protein powder (whey, soy, egg) along with 1 cup of fruit (apple, banana,

strawberries, blueberries) and some ice cubes. Blend this up and enjoy!

Choose a protein powder that is low in sugar and has a great flavor.

Optimum Nutrition carries a great line of 100% whey protein powder in

several delicious flavors.

17. Use the fork-dip technique

A great calorie saving tip while eating out is to order your salad dressing on

the side and use your fork to dip into the dressings before digging into your

salad. This is called the "fork-dip" technique and is great because you will

only use the amount of dressing needed for each small serving (bite). You

will be amazed how much dressing is left over when you finish your salad. If

you’re dealing with a high calorie dressing such as ranch or blue cheese, this

could easily save you hundreds of calories! A good rule of thumb is to

choose oil and vinegar or balsamic vinaigrette as healthier options for salad

dressing. The creamier the dressing, the more fat and calories it usually has.

18. Choose "better-bad" foods

If you have to cheat on your diet and you're really craving one of your

favorite foods, try to make "better-bad" choices and select healthier

alternatives. If you can simply make a healthier choice and pick a food with

less fat or sugar, you can easily save hundreds of calories to help your weigh

loss plan. Remember, if you set a daily goal to create a 500 calorie deficit

per day, you can lose 1 pound of body fat per week! By including these

healthier choices, it will assist you in saving calories in your nutritional plan.

GOLDEN WEIGHT LOSS TIPS PART5

13. Sit down while eating

Try to always sit down when eating. By taking the time to sit down, you will

be more likely to eat slower and really enjoy every bite of your meal. Try to

avoid eating while in the car, walking or running errands. This leads to

"unconscious" eating and you will forget how fast and how much you’re

consuming. It's very easy to overeat while doing other things and this is

something you really want to try and avoid at all costs. Sit down and take

some time by yourself to enjoy a healthy meal which pleases your appetite.

14. Include protein at each meal

You should include a lean protein source at every meal. Your muscles need

protein. You need the amino acids that comprise the protein we consume to

repair, maintain and facilitate growth in muscles. Protein is also used in a

host of other ways by the body, specifically by enzymes, blood and other

cells. Adding protein at each meal will generally reduce the glycemic index

of the meal. Focus on getting at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body

weight. So, if your weight is 175 lbs, try to eat at least 175 grams of protein

per day. Your protein should come from lean sources which are low in fat

and calories.

15. Remove temptations from your house

This tip may be the most important aspect of succeeding with your weight

loss plan. You should go through your kitchen and remove all the

temptations from your refrigerator, pantry and all other areas in your home

where unhealthy foods reside. Try taking the mindset of treating food like a

drug. If you were a recovering alcoholic, the last thing you would want is to

have alcohol in your home. The temptation would be too intense and the

probability to relapse and consume the harmful drug would be far too strong.

Just like alcohol, treat food like a drug. For many people, food is their drug

of choice and this is the primary reason why it's very important to minimize

the temptation as much as possible from your home. Start by going through

your kitchen and removing all the high fat, high sugar and empty calorie

foods such as cakes, candy, crackers, potato chips, rolls, chocolate, pies,

cookies, pizza and ice cream. Replace these unhealthy items with healthy,

nutrient dense food that fuels your body and helps you run at an optimal

level.

10. Set short term goals

Short term goals are important for developing a solid weight loss program.

By setting short term goals, you will have the framework to follow so you

can make small changes in your daily routine which will develop into

healthy habits to last a lifetime. Focus on a weekly goal of losing 1 pound of

body fat. This is the healthiest amount of weight loss per week and is the

correct level to make sure you're burning body fat. To reach this 1 pound

weight loss per week, focus on creating a 500 calorie deficit in your overall

calories every day. You can create this 500 calorie deficit through exercise

or through your diet. Try to use a combination of both for the best results! At

the end of the week, check in to weigh yourself and take your body

measurements. You should also take photographs of yourself to document

how you look.

11. Don’t get discouraged

Remember that it didn't take 2 weeks to pack on those extra 20 pounds, so it

definitely will not take only 2 weeks to lose them! Focus on a solid

fitness/nutrition plan and adhere to it for at least 8-12 weeks. When you first

start out, you should expect your body to really resist change to some

degree. Trust your plan and don't be discouraged if you're not losing weight

fast enough. Your body will eventually switch into a fat burning mode. Be

patient and the results will show!

12. The mirror doesn't lie

Use the mirror to check your progress. Simply get into your underwear or

swimsuit and stand in front of the mirror. Look closely at your trouble areas

which tend to hold large amounts of body fat like the hips and thighs for

women and the abdomen for men. Although the scale may not show any

weight loss, you very well may have added lean muscle to your body. The

mirror will show you an accurate reflection of a tighter and toned body

which is the result of adding muscle mass to your physique.

GOLDEN WEIGHT LOSS TIPS PART3

7. Cut out liquid calories

Soft drinks and high sugar fruit juices will kill your weight loss plan. They

contain huge amounts of sugar and calories and are easily consumed since

they are in liquid form. A 44 ounce super big gulp of coke contains a

whopping 415 calories of pure sugar. This amount of sugar causes a

massive insulin spike and causes you to get hungry very soon after drinking

it. By simply switching to diet soda, you can cut a huge amount of excess

calories and start losing weight. Although this is a good start, you ideally

want to switch to water for your primary liquid source.

Make sure to always check your fruit juices for high amounts of processed

sugar. Look on the ingredients list for "high fructose corn syrup" which is

another name for sugar and see how high it is on the list. The first

ingredients listed usually contain the largest amounts. The majority of fruit

juices on the market are nothing more than flavored sugar water. A great

alternative is to buy a good juicer and make your own fruit juice. This will

provide the highest level of freshness and nutrients when compared to

processed versions. Juicing using real fruit provides the natural source of

fruit sugar called "fructose".

8.Decrease the sugar

One of the best things you can do to drop excess body fat is to decrease your
intake of sugar. Start gradually decreasing high sugar foods like donuts,
candy bars, cakes, pies, hard candy, fudge, soft drinks and processed fruit
juices. If you want to cure a sweet tooth, try frozen grapes or sugar free Jell-
O. By decreasing your sugar intake, you will be able to control your insulin
levels which will help unlock your body's ability to start burning stored body fat.



9.Eat negative calorie foods


Although no food is actually "negative calorie", there are certain foods that
have such few calories that the act of digestion in the body will burn more
calories than the food itself, creating a negative calorie balance. Typically, a
25 calorie piece of broccoli (100 grams) requires 80 calories to digest it in
the body which results in a net loss of 55 calories! Some great foods which
are extremely low in calories and require lots of energy for the body to break
them down include asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, lettuce and
zucchini. These are great foods to include in your weight loss plan.

GOLDEN WEIGHT LOSS TIPS PART2

4. Eat smaller meals more often

By eating small nutritious meals, you will increase your metabolism and

keep yourself full throughout the entire day. It will also amp up your energy

and keep your insulin levels constant. Ideally, you should eat 5 to 6 times

per day, with about 3 hours between each meal. Imagine yourself grazing

versus hoarding. You want to graze on small amounts of foods several times

instead of hoarding on large amounts of foods a few times a day. If you wait

too long between meals, you will have the tendency to binge and consume

far too many calories since you will be extremely hungry.

5. Fill up on fiber

Eating more fiber is a great tip for weight loss. Fiber will give you a feeling

of fullness with a limited amount of calories. Fiber also helps to reduce

constipation, indigestion, gallstones and cholesterol, and assists in

combating heart disease and some cancers. Eat a variety of fibers (soluble

and insoluble). A varied, high fiber, healthy diet will provide both. Soluble

fiber comes from fruits and insoluble fiber comes from whole grains. Fiber

rich foods include oat bran, beans, lentils, fruit, vegetables, whole wheat

bread, brown rice and oatmeal.

6. Eat thermogenic foods

Thermogenic foods are the ones your body uses maximum energy (calories)

in order to properly digest. Some of the greatest thermogenic foods are

vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms, squash, celery, zucchini,

peppers, lettuce and green beans. These foods are very low in calories

which allow you to include a large quantity of them in your diet.

GOLDEN WEIGHT LOSS TIPS part1

1. Don't cut too many calories

Avoid drastically cutting your calories. Quick and drastic weight loss can

cause issues with your body's metabolism and muscle mass. When you lose

a lot of weight quickly, you really need to strictly monitor where the weight

is coming from. Is it water weight, body fat or muscle mass? The majority of

the time, it unfortunately comes from lean muscle mass and this is exactly

what causes serious issues with your metabolism. Muscle is your body's

most potent and active tissue for burning calories and body fat. It’s basically

your body's "furnace" and you always want to keep it burning hot. When

someone loses a lot of weight, which usually comes from crash dieting or

some other unhealthy way of dropping the weight, the body's lean muscle

mass is cannibalized and the person loses some of the most powerful tissue

for keeping a lean body.

The worst thing is when the person finally decides to get off their diet and

they go back to their unhealthy eating habits. The calories go back up, but

since their BMR (basal metabolic rate) is lowered and they have lost muscle

mass, they end up packing on the body fat very quickly! Have you ever

heard of the term "yo-yo" dieting? This is one of the main reasons why so

many people have issues and hard times with their weight loss plans.

2. Increase your water intake

Drinking water is one of the most important aspects to losing weight. Our

bodies are over 70% water and it needs a large amount of this liquid to

maintain its daily functions. Water helps to flush our systems and remove

harmful toxins. When you don't drink enough water, your body actually

holds onto the water is has which in turn, leaves you bloated. In order to

release the water, you need to consume enough of it throughout the day.

Water is also a great no-calorie source to fill up your stomach which helps

keep you feeling fuller. Try drinking ice cold water to actually burn more

calories. Your body needs to heat up the ice cold water and it uses energy

(calories) to do so. This is what's called the "thermogenic effect". You can

burn an additional 100 calories a day by drinking one gallon of ice cold

water. Over the course of month, this equates to almost 1 pound of weight

and 12 pounds of weight loss per year!

3. Don't forget your protein

Make sure to include a lean protein source at every meal. Shoot for 1 gram

of protein per pound of body weight. By eating enough protein, you will

keep your nitrogen levels high which supports muscular repair and growth.

Protein has a thermogenic effect of 30% which makes it the highest

thermogenic food compared to all other nutrients. This means that for every

100 calories of protein you eat, 30 calories are burned by your body to digest

the food leaving you with a net 70 calories. Here are a few quick and healthy

protein packed snacks:

How to lighten blonde hair

Since I want this book to be for everyone, let me share you some tips I gathered from my

Blonde friends on how they’ve lightened their hair color.

For blonde women out there, lemon juice is the key word to lighten the hair. But make sure you

Dilute the lemon juice since the solution can also cause dry and brittle-end hair. To prepare the

Solution, mix one table spoon of lemon juice to a one gallon of water. Use this when rinsing the

Hair and do this everyday until it reaches the desired (and appropriate to skin tone) hair color.

Some herbs, like the chamomile flowers do not only lighten the hair, it also uniformly adds

Color to our crowning glory. To prepare this solution, steep half a cup of the flowers in one

Quart of boiling water. After half an hour, strain the mixture and let it cool.

Wash your hair, towel dry it and pour the chamomile solution over the hair. Catch the residue

In a container and pour this over your hair again. Repeat this 10 to 20 times, depending on the

Degree of lightness that you want (remember the skin tone! Always!). When down to the last

Rinse, leave the mixture in the hair for a good 15 minutes, then wash and rinse the hair

Completely.

Finally, the sun can also be a tool in lightening your blonde hair. When at beach or at the pool,

Spending time under the sun while with wet hair can help lighten the hair. When you do this in

A period of time, it will gradually lighten your hair. Be sure though to use the proper skin

Products to make sure you protect your skin in the process.                                                                  

How to lighten dark hair

How to lighten dark hair

Lemon juice is not the best solution for dark shade hair because it will leave nasty orange  Streaks.

 In this case, try henna powder instead available in health stores .Mix the henna powder With a light herb (like chamomile) and mix this with a boiling water to make a thick paste .As

The solution cools down; apply it to your wet hair through comb. Put a plastic bag over your

Hair, and let it sit between 30 minutes and 2 hours. The darker the hair the longer it should be

Dyed with henna. Remove the bag and rinse your hair. If you don’t want to wait for 2 hours,

Then you can opt to dry your hair under the sun. As a point of pre-caution though, henna can be

A bit strong so you can try it to small section of your hair first to see how samples of how it

Might come about.

What I use meanwhile for my brown hair is cinnamon. Damped your hair moderately and apply

A small amount of conditioner to make the cinnamon stick. Mix a small amount of conditioner

To the cinnamon to make a thick paste. Evenly apply it to the hair by using a brush .Make sure

That the brush is wet and has nice teeth to get the cinnamon gliding smoothly to hair strands.

You can also opt to rub the paste all over the hair.

After applying the cinnamon, gather the hair in a loose bun and hold it together with a ponytail. For best results, leave the mixture overnight (6-8 hours). Use a saran wrap to cover the                                                                                                        

Hair. It is also advised to put a plastic bag all over the head for full protection. Rinse the hair the

Following day. For curly hair, use shampoo in rinsing.

If you are entirely not confident about yourself getting these instructions perfectly done, then

Again, I recommend you go to hair experts in the salons. There will be more work to do if you

Didn’t get the hair shade you desire, and we don’t want any of those sorts to happen. Like in my

Own experience, I had a professional to handle my hair color at the beginning.

I would also like to point out that maintenance is entwined with colored hair. You have to recolor

Your hair in a particular number of months or even weeks (depending in your hair color)

As roots will grow. Covering a grey hair for instance with a permanent color will have you

Having it re-colored every 6 weeks. My roots become evident after 1 month. It’s just a good

Thing that I’ve learned the trick of the cinnamon that I don’t have to go to the salon every time

My roots start bugging me.

The Color

Some women look stunning on gray hair, but I personally prefer playing with colors. Of the steps I took - washing out my increasing gray hair and giving my crowning glory a lighter

I also learned that it won’t hurt to play with shades. Consider one’s skin tone. Didn't match my skin tone.

I would characterize skin tone as “warm” and “cool.” Golden, olive or dark skin and brown or dark eyes. Most Latinas, Asians and African Americans

Are considered having “warm” skin. If you are in this category, get golden shades like caramel

And bronze in a darker shade than your skin. But never settle for black hair as this will wash you

If you opt for a golden shade then make sure it isn’t too light because your hair might turn

Orange.

“Cool” colored women are those who have fair skin and blue or green eyes. This category, avoid gold, auburn or copper. Ash blonde

And cool browns work best.

I’ve observed however that there are some exceptions as some women can pull off a dark,

Black hair (Demi Moore). A long, black and shiny hair presents

Vitality and youthfulness.

The wisdom behind lightening hair is that dark hair is likely to give emphasis to the lines of the

Face by throwing darkness into it. Light colored hair brings a certain young-looking radiance

Because it tends to brighten face and light up the skin tone.

Dark brown or dark black hair is an unlikely complement to our aging skin pigment. Pointed out earlier, the most crucial aspect is having the hair color going harmoniously with

Your complexion.

The next question is: how can we lighten our hair?

Hair removal by electrolysis

Hair removal by electrolysis

What is electrolysis?
Electrolysis refers to the destruction of hair roots with an electric current. Electrolysis is:
Galvanic Method: A DC current passing through the needle causes a chemical reaction
In the hair follicle which produces sodium hydroxide, also know as lye, which destroys the
Hair follicle.
Thermolysis Method: An AC current passing through the needle causes vibration in the
Water molecules surrounding the hair follicle which produces heat. Principle behind a microwave oven.) The heat damages the hair follicle.
This method is much faster but less reliable than galvanic electrolysis. Thermolysis is
Also known as 'short-wave radio frequency diathermy'.
Blend Method: This method tries to combine the benefits of the galvanic and thermolysis
Methods by passing an AC and a DC current through the needle at the same time. Much quicker than the galvanic method.
How does it work?
Very fine metal probes are inserted into the hair follicle. A small electric current is then applied
Which destroys the hair root?
Each hair has to be treated individually.
Particular problem and then multiply it by the rate per hour.
A cheap hourly rate does not necessarily mean lower cost if the procedure takes longer than it Should!
Quotations can vary from $25 to $100 per hour.
This depends on the individual's level of sensitivity.
Others complain of excessive pain during the treatment.
A qualified electrologist will be able to suggest methods for minimizing the discomfort.
How long does the treatment take?
• Curvature of the hair follicle level of skin
• Sensitivity
• Hormonal balance
• Heredity
Electrologist Fino Gior, author of Modern Electrology (See Resources below), gives these
Estimates:
• Upper Lip: 4-10 hours
• Chin: 2-12 hours
• Sideburns: 4-8 hours
• Eyebrows: 3-8 hours
• Underarms: 4-12 hours
• Arms 5-10 hours
• Bikini Line: 8-16 hours
If the procedure is performed by a fully qualified electrologist, the tissue surrounding the hair
Follicle should not be damaged.
It should therefore be safe when performed at a reputable clinic by trained personnel.
Obvious precautions such as the electrologist wearing gloves and the use of disposable, presterilized
Needles also minimize the risk of infection.
Temporary side effects may include some redness and swelling, dryness and scabs.
If the procedure is not carried out by professionals, there is the risk of permanent skin damage
Resulting in a scarring or pitting of the skin.
Electrolysis is often viewed as a permanent hair removal method. Once the hair root is destroyed,
The hair will not grow back.
In some cases hair does regrow in places and clients need to
