2009What's My Perfect Hair Style?
This is a very common problem for most people. At one time
or another we doubt that we are truly wearing our hair in a style
that is most flattering to us. Then we begin to wonder what
our “look” really should be. Let me put your mind at ease. No
matter what you do to your hair, it will eventually grow out and
you can start again. Nothing is actually permanent.
Once we reassure ourselves with this knowledge, we can be a little
more bold and brave when it comes to trying new ideas.
As time passes, our hair and our face changes. By changing
your style and length, you can make the very best of those
changes. What used to work for you when you were sixteen may
not be your very best look at 36. The real secret to
hair-style success, however, is recognizing that some of the
classic hairstyles we see over and over again are the result of
what hair does naturally.
You may have a desire to have a particular hair style, but unless
it reflects the naturally beauty of your hair, it may not actually
suit you. Everyone has a natural hair type, and getting a cut
that is shaped and styled specifically for them is what will bring
out the natural beauty of your hair. Take time to evaluate
your hair. Ask your hairdresser to help you identify the good
qualities and characteristics of your hair. Then together,
you can design your style that best suits your face and your
hair.
By taking time to get a really good style, you’ll be able to wash,
comb, and go OR you can primp and prep to your heart’s
delight. A good hairstyle will allow you to do either, saving
you time when you most need it, but ensuring that you will still
look fantastic.
You can do a few things to change the characteristics of your hair
including coloring, curling, or getting a perm. Remember,
none of these are permanent. If you find that it does not work as
well as you’d hoped, then a little time, and you have a new
opportunity. Work with your hair, rather than trying to fight
it. Finding what your hair does best at each phase of your life
will augment your lifestyle and bring out the true you.
How to Stay Happy and Healthy This Holiday Season
- Find humor wherever you can.
- Expect lines and grumpy people. After all, this is the only
time of year they’re out.
- Exercise. As if shoveling snow weren’t enough!
- Make and then stick to a budget. You may have to remind your
loved ones that you DID make a budget this year and that flat
screen TV just wasn’t on it.
- Attend festivities that are lighthearted and fun. Categorically
refuse to attend anything hosted by someone named Scrooge or
Grinch.
- Take time out to relax, especially after completing a difficult
task. Just remember, if you plan to relax in Florida, don’t forget
your wife. Either take her or remember to write.
- Spend time with friends who are supportive. Naturally, your wife will understand how football therapy will help you through this difficult season.
Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it all. Any day we wish; we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish; we can start a new activity. Any day we wish; we can start the process of life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year.
