I don't mean to change the subject, but if you are experiencing carpel tunnel issues, most likely it is coming from an improperly set up workstation, incorrect typing posture, or the need for alternative typing equipment. If you are typing with your wrists above elbow level, or placing your...

try taking a spray bottle and spraying the dry hair sparingly this helps hold the set for dry hair

I think the layer job really is for people who have normal to thick hair. I know I had to let the layers grow because it looked too skimpy in the back. Does your hair hold a curl? If it doesn't you may want to wet your hair before styling, and sleep in curlers. Also, you may want to get clip...

If your hair is skinny, you may want to let the layers grow out in the back, otherwise it may look too skinny. I let mine grow out and just cut the hair in front of the ears a bit shorter and then graduate it so that it matches the U in the back of my hair. I hope that makes sense.

I cut my own hair into a middy, and I couldn't be happier. The key to cutting your hair in a middy, is taking each layer (you'll have about 4, 1/2 inch shorter than the last) and brushing it straight out to the side and cutting it vertically. When you cut it vertically, the sections fall back...

I've noticed that most cold creams dry up, finally after trying several, I went back to vaseline. It lasts, keeps my skin moisturized, and most importantly, it's cheap. It isn't for everyone, but it's the only thing that works for me....and it keeps the wrinkles at bay!

sorry to hear this. Medication (anti-depressants and stress) can cause your hair to fall out. Also high testosterone levels can also do this. Try rogaine 5%, this will help you if you are showing early signs of alopecia. It is proven to be better in growing back hair in women then it is in...

short horizontal layer cut. The top part of the hair would be the longest about 5"-6", the rest around would graduate long to short so the bottom is around 2" or so. Good luck on the haircut. The most important thing to remember with the haircut is the set. Good luck

seeing the tapestry, I would say this is a 1920s 1930s reproduction. The tapestry most likely is machine made, which came to be around this period

Dish washing liquid is really the only thing that takes the grease out of my hair. I think the reason they use it at the black salons is because the ladies' hair is full of product and it needs to be stripped. I have colored my hair, and since I don't wash it often, it works great. My hair...

my hair, particularly through the winter, is very sensitive to washing and develops nasty flakes. So I wash it about twice a week if I can get away with it. If you ever had trouble with dry scalp, the easiest solution is to stop washing it so often. For the grease I wash it with baking soda...

you can make your own clip in extensions, I sometimes use them when I want fullness (not length, because it can look fake) I made them from hair that is used for weaving. Having your hair weaved however, stretches the scalp so women sometimes develop bald spots.

red square, your hair is lovely and thick...you don't mind if I borrow some?

hello ladies, I don't know if it has been mentioned here, but there is a FANTABULOUS (It's not only fantastic it's fabulous) channel on youtube of old english pathe english newsreels. My favorite so far is the three part savoy fashion show...Miss Von Teese has nothing on these ladies...

ugh I have many. Shaved off my eyebrows at 14 and drew them in. Plucked them super skinny like a chola throughout high school. Wore extremely heavy foundation in high school. Dark, dark almost brown lipstick...really bright cheek color that looked like a clown at 16....but alas, my mistakes...
