For centuries people have been fascinated with color.  Throughout history women have tried to either enhance their own color or use color to change their appearance.  The majority of the population are brunettes and because of this people tend to be fascinated with red and blond hair.  The Egyptians and people from India used the henna plant, which grows in Asia, Morocco, and in other North African countries.  It is a reddish brown powder obtained from its leaves.  Henna was used to achieve a dark red color.  The Renaissance women used a mixture of black sulfur, alum and honey then sat in the sun to achieve a more golden color.

Learning how to take care of yourself in all aspects of your life, feeling good about who you are and what you look like is a challenge to some. When you treat yourself well by taking the time to care for your body, hair, skin, and nails, and when you nourish your soul by doing things you like and surrounding yourself with upbeat people and positive experiences, your whole outlook brightens. Give yourself the attention you deserve. Life is good because you feel good, on the inside and out, even if you have chunky thighs, a few wrinkles around your eyes, or hair with a mind of its own.

The last 10 years have brought a shift in the way people are maintaining their youthful appearance. No longer are facelifts, CO2 lasers, or harsh phenol peels the forefront of treatment. The reasons are obvious; expense, extreme down time, pain, and complications such as infection and nerve damage. These procedures usually require general anesthesia with its own expense and possible complications. As well, the end results often look “overdone.”
