Beauty Parlor & Hair Loss In Females - Causes, Treatments And More

Beauty Parlor & Hair Loss In Females - Causes, Treatments And More

It’s the fundamental right of every woman to look beautiful. Every woman wants to listen the sweet words “you are beautiful”. But the beauty of a woman is far from her looks or figure. Physical beauty is only one aspect while a beautiful charming personality is a complete blend of many fine characteristics such as good manners, etiquette, behavior, smile, intelligence, sense of humor, social and family values etc., all make a woman look beautiful and attractive.

Falling hair is a condition that affects both men and women. However, the condition can be most embarrassing to females in particular as hair is one of the vital aspects of beauty. Hair is one of the most widely complimented features in a female. Blonde, brunettes, black curly hair, long hair, and the list is endless. It is therefore not surprising that females tend to give a lot of importance to their hair and spend considerable amount of money and time in keeping it healthy.

Grooming and maintenance takes up a considerable amount of time in females. A visit to the beauty parlor is almost a must for females, as this not only helps them in keeping their hair in a good shape but also prevent hair loss. Hair loss in females can also be due to hereditary factors and also due to hormonal imbalance. The problem of hair loss is aggravated in pregnant women. During pregnancy, the hormonal changes play havoc with the system and this often leads to female hair loss. However, this condition is only temporary. The fallen hair often grows back after delivery. By using good quality hair vitalizers and shampoos, females can prevent hair loss. The fallen hair will grow back naturally in females.

The condition of falling hair is more embarrassing in females in countries like India where it is customary for them to sport long hair. In fact, long hair is one of the most secret desires in females. Men often fall for females with long and healthy hair. However, considerable time and patience are required to keep the long hair in good and healthy condition.

Traditional methods are the most effective in treating female hair loss. Using good quality hair oil is of course the prime requisite. Combing the hair with a wide-toothed comb and keeping the hair free from harmful substances like cheap hair-dyes will all help in preventing female hair loss.

If you are undergoing treatment for cancer, then the powerful drugs can also affect the condition of your hair and result in hair loss. The treatment for breast cancer in females such as chemotherapy will also aggravate the condition of hair loss. In some cases the hair could be lost completely. However, you should not lose heart, as this condition is only temporary. Once the chemotherapy treatment is stopped, most of the hair will grow back naturally in females.

A How to Guide for the Beauty Parlor

A How to Guide for the Beauty Parlor

It is very important to make sure you look your best. Not only does a beauty parlor optimize your beauty by giving you hair cuts, manicures, facials, waxing treatments and more, but you leave feeling pampered and great. Your appearance is often how others judge you so it is important to look good. Some beauty parlors only do hair styling but others offer a range of treatments. Every city or town has at least one beauty parlor since they are so popular and every woman likes to be pampered and make to look and feel beautiful.

Choosing a Beauty Parlor

When looking for a beauty parlor, you need to find one which has a good reputation and which offers a wide range of services and treatments. Try a couple of different ones and when you find one you like, make it your regular salon. Ask friends or family if they can recommend a good beauty parlor. When you get there, have a look around. Does it look clean? Are the staff friendly and do they have nice hairstyles and a polished look? Does the beauty parlor seem to be busy and popular or is it suspiciously quiet?

How Often Should I Go?

You can visit a beauty parlor as often as time and money permit. A manicure or pedicure can be done weekly. Your hair can be trimmed every four weeks or chemically treated every four to six. Too many treatments can ruin its quality. Waxing should be done every three to five weeks, depending how quickly your hair grows back. It is not recommended to get a blow dry more than once a week because it can be drying and cause dandruff. Your hairstylist is the best person to ask for hair advice. You will probably settle into a routine, going every few weeks for various treatments. Certain treatments such as a massage can be done whenever you feel like having one.

Effects from the Beauty Parlor

A beauty parlor can pamper you and make you feel great. If you go frequently, you can make good friends there, both with the staff and with other regulars. If you are pampered and beautiful on the outside, it can make you feel confident and happy on the inside. If you do not feel good after visiting a beauty parlor, maybe it is time to try a different one.

As far as foundation, concealer, blush, lipstick and the rest are concerned, continue whatever it was that you were doing. It will not only make you feel good, but it will make things seem more normal and routine. The only thing I would recommend doing is to use moisturizing products and products containing sunscreen, particularly during the warmer months when the sun is stronger. Although your skin is susceptible in cloudy weather and all year round.

* Foundation. You can choose a foundation that matches your normal skin tone and a translucent powder to set the foundation. This will also help with dark circles you may notice under your eyes.


* Blush. Use blush to give your face color. Brush upward along the cheekbone. If your face becomes more cumbersome due to weight gain, use a brownish powder. For slimmer faces, a light colored concealer cream will help accentuate certain areas and make them look fuller.


* Eye shadow. Brighten your eyes by using a medium shade across the entire lid, add a lighter color just below the arch of the brow, and then a deeper color in the crease. Blend well to soften the effect.


* Lips. Lip color also helps brighten your face. First, use a soft lip pencil to outline your lips. Aside from keeping your lipstick from bleeding, it also defines your lips and tends to compliment their shape more. Then fill in with a moisturizing lipstick.


* Eyebrows. You can either pencil in new brows or try powder shadows. Powder shadows seem to look a little more natural. You can accomplish this by drawing a soft arch of the brow with eye shadow or powder matching your hair color along the brow bone. Another option is to use waterproof mascara or eye pencil also matching your hair color. Although it may not look as natural, they can be worth trying since some chemotherapy drugs bring on menopause or menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes that will wash away certain powders and pencils. Experiment using both and see which one suits you best.


* Eyelashes. To recreate the look of lashes, you can use liquid liner or eyeliner pencil to draw a thin line along the upper and lower lids. I would avoid applying mascara to any few lashes you may have left since gaps can be quite noticeable in addition to shortening the life of the lashes.


* Fake lashes. You can apply fake lashes if you have the time. Start by drawing a line along the top of your lid with eyeliner. Next, with the adhesive draw another thin line on the lash base (be careful not to apply too much glue). Apply the lashes by using either your fingers or tweezers. Start in the middle and then affix to both sides. After allowing it to dry (try not to blink!) apply another coat of liner over the glue. If your lashes are too long you can cut them with a small pair of scissors. And now you can even apply mascara to them!

Beauty Parlor

Women are beautiful in themselves; but a little make-up does help. In the 21st century, beauty and make-up are like the wheels of a cart or the two sides of a coin. Every woman wants to be pretty whether she's young or old so the beauty parlor is the place to go. Beauty parlors are also a temple; however, the difference is that we go to worship God in the temple and in the beauty parlor we go to be worshipped by the beautician.

Of course women go to the beauty parlor to be made beautiful but they also come to share news. Some come with mournful tidings and others with happy ones. We have our own criteria for judging the beauty of a woman. We look the beauty of a lady from a certain angle and then pass the remarks whether she is beautiful or not. It’s not fair. Let me tell every woman that she is unique and beautiful. The business of beauty is thriving everywhere. Women are spending much of their time and money on buying beauty products. Even in the third world countries, women living below the poverty line, buy cheap and substandard beauty products, which give more harm to their skin than good.

Making Beautiful Name: Male Workers in Beauty Parlors

Making Beautiful Name: Male Workers in Beauty Parlors

Many competing sociological debates intersect in the world of beauty parlors. There is an increasing proliferation of male or "gents" parlors—a space where a new formation of the male self is being produced and established through new cultures of care and work. Because "work" has always been understood as central to the lives of men, a major basis of their identity, it is often seen as being identified with masculinity. "Beauty" and "caring," on the other hand, are often viewed as something intrinsically feminine.

This article weeds out such notions by presenting life histories of men in "beauty work" and argues that just as different work situations produce different models of masculinities, the same work situation also may prove an arena of a variety of masculinities. The article also explores the possibilities and potentials of understanding gender relations in South Asia that will prove helpful in making comparisons with other masculinity studies.

First Rule of the Beauty Parlor Name: Nobody Talks About the Beauty Parlor

Guys, this column is for you in particular, as I have just had a major revelation.

I have a talent. (No, that's not the revelation.)

I can be invisible.

Not literally of course, but I can almost drop completely off the human radar screens. I am something of a social chameleon, and can blend into almost any group. In fact, if I concentrate, I can actually blend into the background; it almost becomes like I'm not there at all. While this ability is something of a drag when at a party or going clubbing, it's perfect for a chronicler of the human condition. It's a talent that came in handy for Sir Richard Burton on his Pilgramage to Mecca, and came in doubly so for me as I ventured deep into forbidden territory to bring you this column.

Sometimes, I have to fight and strain to bring you the latest news and information on our twisted human existence; other times, like today, these stories just fall into my lap like hair from the barber's shears. Which brings me to the beauty parlor, a realm heretofore unpenetrable by men.

Oh sure, you can go there and get your hair cut, but as any woman will confirm, the actual haircutting is the smallest part of what goes on inside those hallowed walls. Similar to the afternoon golf game, or the business lunch, male rituals we are all familiar with, going to the beauty parlor is the place where women can let their hair down while they, er, let their hair down. I mean, come on, you guys didn't think that your ladies really need to get their hair professionally washed, cut, dried, combed, and curled once a week, did you? After all, they've been doing it themselves for most of their lives, right?

Nope, the big attraction is that they can get together and talk about us and all of our shortcomings in excruciating detail. It's very similar to the "going to the bathroom in pairs" phenomena that's left countless men staring off into space, waiting for their dates to return. Now this isn't really a well kept secret, having been discovered and reported to us two decades ago by Martin Wilson of Bethchester MA. (May his poor soul rest in peace.) The true secret is the one I inadvertantly discovered last week.

The circumstances were somewhat harrowing, and it is with fear and trepidation that I've decided to relay it to you now. I also note in passing that I have no plans of suicide, taking up any dangerous hobbies, or going on long trips in the near future.

Just in case I disappear, I want the truth to be known.

Now, normally, I get my hair cut by a local lady who cuts hair for our whole extended family, but she was busy last week so I got an appointment at a salon in Sevierville. Yes, a salon; it's too hard to find an honest to goodness barber shop anymore. In fact, the only one I know of is up in Erwin, and I don't plan on making that drive again ever. I made the 3 hour round trip 5 times a week for almost 4 years and brother, I don't care if I never see those roads again.

Anyway, I went to Chez Gertrudina's for a quick haircut so I'd be reasonably presentable for the Christmas pictures later this week. (That's another important tip for you daters, by the way. Most men make the mistake of getting a haircut the day of the date. They think they can impress the girl by showing her that they went to great lengths to look good for the date. But the smarter dater gets his hair cut a week before the date. He impresses his date by showing her that he always looks this good.)

For a man, there's something vaguely intimidating about a salon. When you first walk in, something just tells you that you really don't belong, and that if you aren't on your best behavior, dreadful things may happen to your hair. Most people don't know this, but the mullet was invented as a punishment for Billy Bob Hoedecker who loudly passed gas while in the salon.

Twice.

Sadly, this was one case where the plan backfired. Who knew that he and his redneck buddies would actually like looking like the north end of a southbound mule?

I don't know what it is that makes the place so forbidding; maybe it's the smell of the chemicals, or the pictures of androgynous models on the walls with impossibly perfect hair. Maybe it's just an instinctive respone, brought on by centuries of evolution; when a man walks into a woman's salon, he's on enemy ground, and he knows it.

When I walked into the place, I was pleased that it was just two stylists and me. Ginni took me back to begin the cutting, and I leaned back in the seat, and just tried to blend in. I succeeded, because after a few minutes, Ginni and Bunni (Ever noticed that stylists names always end in a vowel, and it's usually "i"? A trait they share in common with exotic dancers, I do believe. Hmmm. I just may have found the seed for another column. The things I do for you people...) began talking as if I wasn't even there. Apparently, Ginni was having a hard time dealing with her son, who was getting out of hand. She tallied up his offenses, which were long and mostly minor, but the sheer volume was incredible. Bunni allowed that her youngster was a bit of a rapscallion as well, and that she was having to take harsh actions to reign in her hellion.

They went back and forth for a bit, sharing their sad tales when Bunni suddenly spoke with real venom.

"You know what the worst part of the whole thing was? Frank said I was going too easy on the kid and he was right! I hate that!"

Ginni echoed her, saying that her husband had also said the same thing, and now that they were following his plan, her kid was straightening up. Ginni said she was mad at her husband for three weeks simply because he was right.

"Men are right," she spat, "and that sucks!"

Well folks, truths like this don't come without a heavy price, and I don't mind telling you I was a bit nervous, because it was about that time in the conversation that Ginni, who was trimming my eyebrows with some very sharp scissors, realized that there was a man in the room, and they'd just revealed more than they should've.

An oppressive silence descended over the room, as Ginni continued to move the scissors ever closer to my eye, trimming my eye brows.

"Listen buster, and listen good. What's said in the Beaty Parlor stays in the Beauty Parlor, got it? If I find out you blab any of this to anyone, well, let's just say that your next haircut will be your last. And don't think I can't make it happen, bubba. I have connections in salons and barber shops from here to the California coast. Cross me and there'll be no place for you to hide! Sooner or later, you'll need a haircut, and when you do..."

Her words trailed off in an evil sounding laugh, accompanied by her drawing the business end of a comb across my throat.

I quickly began to assure her that I'd fallen asleep and hadn't heard a thing she had said, and further that if I had heard anything, which I hadn't, then it obviously fell under stylist/client privilege, and even further, that even if it wasn't privileged, which it was, and if I had heard something, which I hadn't, that I was totally taken by her beauty, grace, charm, and capacity for violence, and I wouldn't think of crossing her.

My sincerity and obvious fear must have convinced her, because she let me go with my remaining eyebrow. If she'd have known about this blog, I don't think I would have made it out of there a whole man. I left a big tip on my way out and have spent the last week, deciding whether or not to share this story with my fellow man. At long last, I decided that this knowledge was too important, that no matter what the personal cost, I had to come forward and share what I know.

So fellows, if you come home to your wife, girlfriend, or significant other, and she seems pissed for no discernible reason, rest assured, she's just coping with the agonizing realization that, once again, you were right.

And if you see me coming down the street with a ragged haircut and only one eyebrow, just realize that cutting my own hair for the rest of my life is a small price to pay for your peace of mind.

Your beauty salon has had a makeover.

Once upon a time, not so long ago, a hair salon was a place to go for a cut and color and maybe a polish change. If you wanted anything more elaborate, your choices were limited.

Now, most salons are no longer just salons. You can have a facial, massage or other body treatment in the same place -- bringing the essence of a spa retreat to a location right down the street. I argue that there is no singular beauty standard enforced by a unified male gaze. Instead, we should conceive of fields in which differently located individuals and groups invest in and promote particular ways of seeing beauty, producing both penalties and pleasures in women’s lives.
