Are you facing Hair loss!

Excessive hair loss generally indicates some imbalance in our body. We call it a delayed reaction because the cause of loss generally occurs three months before the actual hair loss. Some internal imbalance pushes the growing hair, which is in anagen phase, prematurely into the catogen an telogen phase. The hair thus enters the telogen phase (which is a three month long phase) before their time. They rest in the telogen phase for about three months and then fall out. We then start to worry – three months after the actual cause has occurred. More often than not, once the imbalanced in the body is rectified, the hair loss will automatically stop. However, if your hair loss persists beyond three or four months, you have a serious problem and it is time to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Treatment options for temporary hair loss will be mostly symptomatic in nature and will be done after taking into account the amount of hair loss and the plausible cause. If it is due to dandruff, it will be sorted out. In case there are psychological problems, help will be provided. Dietary changes may also be prescribed to arrest hair fall. Over-use of fashion accessories or hair styling products may be discouraged. Whatever it is, the doctors will a thorough study of the internal health condition. Male hair loss and its causes are different from women hair loss. Male hair loss occurs on the vertex and the anterior mid-scalp area of the head. Propecia is an approved treatment by FDA for male hair loss. You can buy Propecia for hair loss treatment online after a free consultation from Propeciafinasteride.

Once doctor determines the cause of hair loss, the road to recovery becomes much easier. The first thing to remember during an episode of hair loss is to stop panicking. A certain amount of hair is lost as part of a natural cycle of growth and shedding. However, due to a variety of reason our hair begins to fall at an unprecedented rate, and then we do have cause for worry. We should take heed of unnatural hair loss, not so much for cosmetic reason, but because it suggests an imbalanced within our system.

Looks we Love: Naomi Campbell by Michael Kors




Francois Nars the legendary makeup artist and founder of NARS Cosmetics, releases his book of celebrity portraits to celebrate the 15 year anniversary of his cosmetics company.

While Naomi is such an a amazing palatte if you wanted to recreate her look this is the Sunny's Girl recommendations:

1. Purchase Bohyme Egyptian Wave in 14" and 18" in Color # 2

2. Have your stylist sew in a full head of extensions and razor in blunt bangs and soft face framing layers. The 14" package of Bohyme Egyptian Wave should be used on top to create natural layers and the 18" should be used at the nape of the neck to create the length.

3. Wash hair with Ever Pure by Loreal and then allow the hair to dry with a diffuser to control the soft natural wave of the hair.

4. Line your eyes with a soft kohl eyeliner in a dark brown shade and add plum and neutral eye shadows in the crease of lid. Finish off the eye with black mascara:  a personal staff fave is Dior Show Blackout in Black 099

5. Dust the cheeks with Taj Mahal by NARS to deliver a soft accent to your cheekbones.

6. Channel your innermost diva!

Laser Hair Restoration

Laser hair restoration or low level laser therapy (LLLT) has been described as ‘A Modern Miracle’. Ever since its discovery, men and women have benefited from this new technology. It is a non-surgical, scientific approach in the treatment of hair loss, thinning hair, and scalp problems and has been medically tested and is FDA-approved for safety and effectiveness.

Is Laser Hair Regrowth Possible At All?
Yes, but don’t wait till you are completely bald. If your hair follicles have been dormant for too long, you may not achieve strong results through laser hair therapy. If your hair loss problem last less than three years, you would respond best to laser therapy.


What Is Laser Hair Therapy?
Patients receive a series of half-hour treatments where the scalp is exposed to a number of soft laser beams. Although some lasers vary in the strength of each diode (normally 4.9 mw) generally the more lasers diodes a person is sitting under during each laser treatment will provide better results.


Each easy and painless laser treatment increases blood flow to the scalp, opening up hair follicles to blood and oxygen that can result in reduced hair loss as well as actual hair growth in a majority of patients.

Looks we Love: Melanie Fiona




The song It Kills Me by Melanie Fiona was playing in our store the other day and we liked what we heard so much that we decided to look her up online. She is a look we love!!!

We're sure we've stumbled upon someone to look out for.

To recreate Melanie's long feminine locks we recommend Natural Wave Indian Hair in 22". We'd blow dry the hair until is 90% dry and then spray a lightweight hairspray on 1" sections of the hair and wrap it on the outside of the barrel of a 1 1/2" curling iron. Allow the curls to cool and then brush out with a wide paddle brush to diffuse movement into the hair style.

Runway to Realway? Blade Runner Inspired Bangs



We're definitely a fan of the heavy bang but Louise Goldin debuted her entire Fall 2009 line featuring models with Blade Runner inspired heavy bangs.

We're not cosigning this as a look we love. But maybe it's runway to reality interpretation will be a look we love.

Your Thoughts?

Short Hair Updos

Getting an updo look for short hair can be easier than you think, but it obviously depends on how short you hair is.Many professional hairstyles can be created at home with the right equipment. A good quality blow-dryer with a cool-shot button helps to make the hair cuticle lie flat so that a sleek look can be produced.A variety of brushes are also handy to create the style you want. Big round brushes are excellent for producing waves and big loose curls whereas a flat paddle brush will be needed if you want one of the Sedu straight styles that the celebrities wear.In addition you may want to invest in a few hair grips. Kirby grips or bobby pins are an extremely useful accessory and bigger clips may also be needed to part sections of hair ready for styling if your hair is thick or very long, or you just need to keep sections out of the way while styling.

Short Hair Pictures

The styling and the condition of one's hair say a lot about oneself and can very often be one of key factors in shaping impressions about any person. The choice of any hair style depends on various factors like sex, body and face shape, lifestyles and work-place setups. Your query is not very clear as you haven't mentioned the sex and other information about whom the hair style is intended for. It would therefore not be possible to directly suggest a particular type of short hair style, but we can give you a few general tips.The size and shape of one's body and face along with skin color play a big role in determining hair styles. Short hair styles are considered very versatile and can be carried of very well by most people.

Very Short Hair Styles

Short be representative of any type of person we are representing. From the chic the sexy girl next , short hair is not a faux pas anymore. Although short hair is not for everybody, some will find compact hairstyles actually more complimentary on them than longer hairstyles. For those that already have shorter hair, there are many different techniques to the hair that you might not be aware of featuring textured crops, curl outs, and many others. Asking a personal hair stylist might be the best way to locate trendy, new hairstyles. For those interested in getting a shorter haircut and being free of taking care of all that long hair, these hairstyles might be exactly what you need. If you have seen hairstyles on stars like Cameron Diaz or or have noticed an exciting hairstyle in a fashion magazine like Cosmopolitan, and ever wondered or thought that it would appear good on you, then you absolutely should consider these hairstyles. These hairstyles are sometimes the refreshing new item in life that brings things into a unique perspective. Again, however , we must stress that adopting short hair is a big step as you will have to live with the cut for a while before it grows all back. Changing to various hairstyles with varying lengths will take some time without the aid of extensions.

Baldness Cure

Baldness Cure has been a hot topic. More and more men suffer from hair loss nowadays. Some even had this problem since their 20s. The demand for men hair regrowth has been increasing substantially. Before we explore options for hair regrowth for men, check out this ebook. Hair Loss Conquered is one among the top three best selling ebooks in the market on the subject and it has a focus on male Baldness Cure. It’s all about how natural ingredients can achieve better results than pharmaceutical drugs, without the nasty side effects. Your investment of $37 might change your life.

There are treatments for baldness cure but they do not effective for everyone; different people will react differently to different types of treatments. Luckily there are treatments designed for male pattern baldness which you can try. Here are some of them.

Option One for Baldness Cure – Use DHT Blocker Shampoo
Male pattern baldness, hairline receding are mainly due to the slow but sure spread of DHT. DHT is a hormone that is needed by the body in its stages of growth and development. However, once a person reaches adulthood, then this DHT becomes a problem. It slowly gets deposited in hair follicles and aids in the death and the falling of hair by weakening it from the root.


Men have higher testosterone levels than women, hence far higher level of DHT. Fighting against DHT is the first step as to stop men’s hair loss. Check out the
MiN New York Wash DHT Daily Shampoo 8.5oz which could help blocking DHT in our daily life.

Option Two for Baldness Cure: Improve Blood Circulation
Blood circulation is totally important to natural hair regrowth for men. Your hair will not regrow when you lack a tremendous amount of blood circulation in scalps.


It's been proven that those with hair loss have lower blood flow going to and from their scalp. Massaging your scalp naturally creates stimulation and improves blood circulation which is an essential step to encourage men hair regrowth. Giving your scalp more blood is like drinking water when you're really thirsty.

Aromatherapy has been widely used to promote blood circulation to the scalp. Oils obtained from bay, cedar wood, grapefruit, jojoba, lavender, lemon and rosemary are very popularly in use. These, when massaged into the scalp and allowed a certain time for absorption, apparently arrest hair loss and even stimulate renewed growth. Among all, Jojoba Oil enjoys very high rating.

Option Three for Baldness Cure: Natural Remedies, Diet & Vitamin
B-vitamin family is great for keeping your hair strong and healthy. Eggs, various meats, and poultry such as chicken and duck contain large amounts of vitamin B. B vitamins are water-soluble, which means they are lost through our urine. Therefore, they must be replenished every day.


Vitamin E also encourages hair follicles to stay strong and produce hair. You can obtain Vitamin E by eating nuts and seeds.

However if you find it difficult to access the appropriate amount of vitamins through daily diet, you are recommended to take some hair vitamin supplements. Hair Formula 37 hair vitamins for faster hair growth enjoys high ratings from Amazon customers. You might want to check it out.


Other Treatments for Baldness Cure

Laser Combs for Men
Laser combs is a new but hopeful treatment for men hair regrowth. It is a 'low level laser therapy' believed to stimulate hair follicles at the cellular level and is one of only 3 products approved by the FDA to promote hair regrowth for men. We shall talk about this later on.


Provillus's Unique Male Formula
Provillus contains the clinically tested ingredient approved by the FDA to help regrow your hair. They have different formulas for men and women. We shall talk about this later on.

The Good and the Bad News About Baldness Cures

By Peter Albertson

There are tens of millions or possibly even hundreds of millions of men in the US searching for a baldness cure. It is estimated that around 50 percent of men will suffer some form of balding and most of them will hate it. For this reason baldness cures, particularly on the Internet, are big business. But how do you go about finding a genuine cure for baldness?

Baldness cures of any type are not cheap. For this reason the market for hair loss treatments is worth hundreds of millions of dollars and where there is a market that size there will be many many products available. However that does not mean that they all work or even that they are all safe for anyone to use.
The Internet is unregulated. Anyone can design a website and sell a baldness cure without any requirement that it be demonstrated to work or that it be demonstrated to be safe to use. On the internet it's a serious case of buyer beware.

It's very easy to get ripped off buying baldness cures on the Internet. Not only is there a fair chance they will not reverse your hair loss there is also a likelihood that they may be harmful to your health and to your wallet. Does this mean that you should forget about regrowing your hair?

Not at all. We have an organization whose job it is to regulate these things. The FDA has approved two products to use as men's hair loss treatments. Both these products have been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the FDA to work to counter male balding, including in cases of male pattern baldness, because that causes over 90 percent of men's balding.

It is fair to assume that where the FDA has approved a product as a men's hair loss treatment that there is sufficient evidence, in the form of proper scientific studies, that these products work to reverse hair loss. However it is also true that these products will not work as a cure for baldness for every man suffering from male pattern balding. It is too much to expect any product to work for everybody.

These 2 baldness cures are finasteride, marketed as Propecia, and minoxidil. Only minoxidil is approved to use as a baldness cure for women because finasteride has been shown to have serious side effects when used by women. Finasteride can also have some side effects when used as a hair loss treatment by men including loss of libido.

Minoxidil is the only hair loss product approved for use by men and women. It is thought to operate to restore hair growth by improving the blood flow to the hair follicle thereby improving the availability of nutrients to the follicle. As lack of nutrients is the reason why a hair dies in cases of male pattern baldness this makes complete sense.

One company has seen a way to improve the results that you may expect. If minoxidil improves the flow of blood to the hair follicle to make more nutrients available, then if those nutrients are supplied in optimum quantities then this will maximize the chances of optimum hair regrowth.

This product seems to work more effectively than simply using minoxidil on its own.

Remember, whilst there may be dozens or hundreds of baldness cures on the Internet, none of them are approved by the FDA except for finasteride and minoxidil. Minoxidil alone is approved for both men and women.

Visit my website to find out more about a product that combines minoxidil with a range of essential hair nutrients to increase the likelihood of hair regrowth.

Types of Baldness

By Brenda Williams

All of one's body hair is involved in a cycle of growth, shedding and regrowth. Hair is composed of keratin, the same substance from which our fingernails are made. It grows from a follicle located in the second layer of the skin called the dermis. Following active growth, the follicle disintegrates and the hair falls out. Then a new follicle emerges and the period of growth starts over. For eyebrow hair the cycle is only four months. Hair on the head is replaced every two to five years. Loss of hair is referred to as alopecia by the medical profession and baldness by the general public.

Although women also experience hair loss it does not follow the same pattern as in males. In males baldness begins at the temples and spreads over the top of the head leaving a rim of hair around the sides and the back. This type of baldness is believed to be genetic. However, baldness can also be associated with an illness. In this case, the hair usually grows back once the illness is cured. Cancer treatment with chemotherapy and radiation therapy causes baldness in both men and women but the hair grows back once the treatment is over. Diseases such as anemia, thyroid, lupus, lichen planus and some bacterial infections also produce some hair loss.

Another disease that causes hair loss is alopecia areata. In this condition the hair falls out in clumps leaving bald patches all over the head. Scientists do not know the causes of this disease but they believe it may be an autoimmune condition. It mainly affects hair on the head but in some cases eyelashes and eyebrows also fall out. In most people, the hair loss is temporary and regrowth appears within a year. There are several treatments available. These include antiviral drugs orally administered, injections of corticosteroid drugs into the bald areas, and application of creams that contain corticosteroid drugs. The treatments are experimental in that no one treatment works for every patient. Each treatment is effective with some people but not with others.

Baldness cannot be prevented. It is not painful nor is it harmful to one's physical health but it does cause emotional trauma for some people. There are treatments available. However, for temporary hair loss the easiest option might be concealment with a hairpiece or full wig. There are two drugs available that will bring about a regrowth of hair in bald spots but they are only effective when taken continuously. If you stop taking the drug, the new hair will fall out. One of the drugs is minoxidil and the other is finasteride. Finasteride does have side effects and is only effective for small patches of baldness.

The most effective treatment is hair transplantation or hair replacement surgery. There are three techniques used for this but all are usually outpatient surgery using a local anesthesia and sedation.

One is a graft in which a section of hairy scalp is grafted to the bald part. The other two are tissue expansion and flap surgery. When performed by a qualified surgeon, all three techniques are generally safe. There is always a risk of infection in any type of surgery.

Looks we Love: Kim Kardashian, LaLa and Ciara


The ultimate Sunny's Girl celebrated her birthday this past weekend in Las Vegas. What a stylish set of friend's she has.

To achieve LaLa and Ciara's look we'd recommend 10 ounces of Indian Hair Natural Wave in 22". To recreate their long big-barreled curls we'd blow out the Indian Hair and then using a lightweight hairspray such as AirControl by Aveda we'd use a 1" curling iron to create spiral curls and then set with pins to cool into the curls.

To recreate Kim Kardashian's ode to Sasha Fierce we'd use the ever so easy Lord & Cliff One Piece Clip In Extensions and clip it in towards the nape of the neck and crown area and secure that into a high ponytail. We'd tease the crown area to recreate the voluminous pump ponytail look.

Make sure to check the ingredients label before buying any shampoo.

Want to Stop Baldness Now? Find Out How You Can Stop Baldness and Regrow Your Hair Effortlessly!

By Julia Garsons

Losing Your Hair can be the cause of some really bad self esteem problems.

But if I told you today there is an easy natural cure for hair loss, would you take the steps to correct your problem and get yourself esteem and life back on track?

If you answered yes...then today is your lucky day.

Lets first start with the cause of hair loss, and what most treatments don't offer help with.

The first is DHT. DHT is a byproduct caused from testosterone from an enzyme known as 5-alpha-reductase. DHT is responsible for creating dormant hair follicles which in turn, reduces the amount of hair evident on your head.

They act by suffocating the follicle, thus forcing your hair to fall out. But unfortunately we all have DHT being produced by our bodies, and if you are reading this article, you probably have more than most.

Another common problem for hair loss sufferers is stress. With only suffering a mild form of hair loss myself, and by mild I mean temporary, I am fully aware of the effects stress can have on losing my hair. The key is to control the amount of stress in your life, as the only person responsible for the stress is you.

Of course there are other things outside of our control which cause stress, but it is how we deal with them that is important.

If you eliminate stress from your life, you eliminate one of the contributing factors to losing your hair.
Luckily enough for people today, there is now a natural treatment available to stop the cause a promote hair regrowth.

Many natural treatments contain various vitamins and minerals that hair loss sufferers are lacking, including saw Palmetto, which has been used for thousands of years in eastern cultures to not only hair-loss, but other conditions such as prostate cancer.

Now although there is no miracle cure that will offer overnight regrowth, natural treatments offer a substantial increase in hair regrowth...so sticking with the treatment is crucial.

Many physicians are now offering natural hair loss treatments to there patients over laser treatments due to the simple fact that they offer guaranteed results.

Julia Garsons, Pharmacist turned author, recommends taking a look at Paul Baxter's blog. He is a 52 year old Chiropractor who has beaten the problem with a natural treatment and goes into it in detail at his blog titled Am I Losing My Hair.

Clip in Extensions with Derek J



We love our Derek J. He's the Ultimate. So we were thrilled to showcase one of our favorite products. The Lord & Cliff One Piece. Lord & Cliff is by far the best brand of clip in extensions sold on the market. The price does not convey the quality and ease of use.

Derek J is also a huge fan of the versatility that clip in extensions offer.

Treat Your Hair Loss

Hair-coming out in clumps, clogging the bathroom sink, leaving endless trails on the floor and on your person can be a nightmare. Here are some treatment measures you can take to deal with hair loss.

The first sign of hair loss leads to panic. Home remedies are blindly followed; hair oils, masks etc are hurriedly bought to arrest hair loss and if possible restore it to its former self.

More often than not hair loss is nothing more than a signal of internal imbalance. An imbalance arising out of poor health, lack of protein and zinc in our diet and stressful lifestyles. However once the reason for the signal is determined and treated our hair goes back to its normal pattern of shedding and growing. The key is to recognise that our hair reacts swiftly to changes in our body.

Hair is nourished by the blood stream and any changes in blood content – be it medication, hormones or lack of nutrients, can result in hair loss.

Hair loss that happens all over the scalp is called Diffuse Hair loss. The most common causes of Diffuse Temporary Hair loss are:

Poor scalp condition
Dandruff
Mineral deficiency
Keratin deficiency
Hormonal imbalances
Thyroid disorders
Stress
Acute illness
Medication, which includes hair loss due to chemotherapy
Anaemia

Treatment for Male Hair Loss

Every locked door has a key. So don’t be panic about your hair loss. Hair Loss or male pattern baldness can be treated by Propecia finasteride. Many kind of treatment is available in market for Hair Loss. Propecia is one of the most effective amongst them. Propecia is a prescription medication for hair loss treatment.

What's your Halloween look this year?




How is it already Halloween? There's nothing like Halloween to put your finger on the pulse of pop culture. This year we can't quite predict what type of Halloween costumes people will be gravitating towards. While Amy Winehouse and Posh Spice are so two years ago, is everyone really going to be Kate Gosselin or Lady Gaga?


Looks we Love: Penelope Cruz


We couldn't help but having our breath taken away by the November issue of Vanity Fair layout of Penelope Cruz.

We love her confidence. To achieve her look we'd recommend a great wig such as Star by Henry Margu or Cleo by Bobbi Boss to recreate the blunt bang and long bob look that allows her to channel her inner Sophia Lauren.

Shine Your Hair in Split Second

The damaged hair took a long time to re-lighted. However, there are tricks to get around the damaged hair, so it looks more shiny in relatively quick time.


- Use a hair mask (hair mask) at least once a week for very dry hair type. Apply mask evenly, leave for a few minutes. This treatment will make the hair feel softer and shiny.


- Or apply plain yogurt to the hair once or twice a month. Apply the hair in wet condition, leave for five minutes to produce more shiny hair.


- Use hair curler and hair clamp for 10-15 minutes to get the straight effect and shiny on dull and faded hair. After that spray the hair shine evenly.

Hair Regrowth, DHT Blocker

Many has been talking about DHT blocker can help hair regrowth. Before we dive deep to look for the best hair regrowth treatments, let’s take a look at what DHT blocker is and how they can help fighting hair loss.

In terms of best hair loss products, men and women would have different needs. We'll talk about the reasons.

Blocking DHT - Your First Step to Stop Hair Loss
DHT is a byproduct of testosterone. Testosterone, of course, is an important hormone for the health and wellness of both men and women. However, when testosterone comes in contact with an enzyme in the body called "5 alpha reductase" it produces DHT which leads to a blockage of blood and nutrients to the hair follicles, eventually leading to hair loss. When hair loss is determined to be due to excessive DHT in the system, the best treatment is to imply DHT blocker.

Reasons for Male Pattern Baldness
In both men and women it’s a normal process that testosterone naturally converts to DHT. But the hair loss that results happens much more often in men because they have higher testosterone levels. One of the best ways to prevent the hair loss and treat the loss which is already occurring is to block the DHT receptors.

Reasons for Female Hair Thinning
Female seldom suffer from complete baldness as their testosterone levels are far lower than men, but Female Pattern Baldness has been rising to a problematic situation, in addition to the traditional thinning problem. Statistics show that one in four women face Female Pattern Baldness (FPB).

Women tend to lose their self confidence and self esteem with fewer and fewer hair left on their heads. Female hair loss mainly due to hormone surges, stress, illness or pregnancy, but these will only last temporarily. The major cause hereditary hair loss, or Alopecia, is said to account for 95% of female hair loss.

Block DHT with Natural Means – for both men and women
Natural scientists have found that Zinc is an effective agent for blocking DHT production. Choosing foods that are rich in zinc will help block DHT naturally; however there are other ways to block DHT using natural medicines made from all-natural herbs and minerals.

Customer Review From Amazon

When I first found this product, my hair was starting to receed, and just plain look bad and weak no matter what I did. The sides and back of hair would grow but the top didn't.

Short Hair Styles

The real definition of short hair would imply chin length tresses or shorter. Some examples of the hottest short hairstyles are the pixie, crop and ever famous bob. Anything reaching to the shoulders and slightly beyond would fall into the medium hairstyle category. When it comes to a woman with short hair, she is incredibly lucky if a short hairstyle suits her. Why? Because not every face can pull it off. The size and shape of a face and body plays an enormous part in ones hairstyle and let’s face it, the shorter the hair, the more to expose. Once pulled off successfully, short hair is clean, sharp, mature and extremely sexy on many women, not to mention liberating! Many women have been known to carry their posture better, hold their heads up higher and pay more attention to their attire since they don’t have their hair to hide under. It’s not as forgiving as longer hairstyles on bad hair days as it can’t simply be put up in an updo and forgotten about. More frequently than long hair, short hair is often cut with a particular style in mind rather than a long hairs monthly trim. This means that a short hairstyle may save you time with a shorter hair routine but might be more of a challenge to maintain once the style begins to grow out. One will never be out of hair ideas with short hairstyle possibility as short hairstyle pictures can be found on nearly every famous female celebrity at one time or another and of course on the internet and fashion magazines.
