As hair shapes our face and individuality, we need to pay it back with utmost care. Whether it is long or short, straight or curled, proper caring for hair is very important to keep it healthy and manageable. If you are one of the many women who want to have hairstyles like celebrities, here are three important things that you must remember to maintain your silky, smooth and bouncy hair while on style.

1. Choosing the right hair product. Decision making and basic knowledge are two essentials if you want to achieve or keep the silkiness of your hair. Make it a habit to look at the label of the shampoo or conditioner that you’re buying. There are known brands that offer different formulas for various types of hair such as dry, oily or color-treated. Pick the one that fits your hair.
2. Handling your hair with care.  After taking shower, it is highly recommended that you gently pat your hair using a towel. Drying the hair naturally will help prevent damage than using hot air blow dryers. Never force to comb your hair while it is still wet since it is at its most fragile state. Instead, start combing from the tips to fix the tangle.
3. Styling. Hairstyling are always good as it lets you achieve the look that you want, if done right with or without the help of the experts.

Posted by: liza on February 14th, 2010 in etcetera

It’s year of the Tiger, and most people, even they are not Chinese, are waiting for this moment to know their future.  I, myself also want to know what’s in store for me. I tried to look for some horoscopes and here’s what I found. For those who were born on the year of the Rooster, this is our fate in the year of the Metal Tiger according to www.chinesefortunecalendar.com.

The lucky Purple Star and Dragon Star come for Chicken people in 2010. They indicate that power, support and leadership may fall upon your shoulders. This is a very good sign for your career; there is a chance of promotion or even pay raise. Therefore, money luck comes after career. Your wealth will increase mainly from your salary, not from the easy investment. However, there is an Unlucky Loss Star hiding in the corner. That means there is a chance of failure because of your mistake or negligence. In the year of Metal Tiger, the personality of Chicken people will become more domineering, arrogant and irritable. This makes it easy to have arguments with Chicken people. The social relationship is very important for Chicken people in this year. The poor people relationship might turn the fortune of Tiger year into a different direction. Therefore, Chicken people need to watch their words and deeds in 2010.

Career: The Purple Star appears in the year of Tiger. This means that Chicken people will have the chance to show their talent to people and have the opportunity to act in a leadership role. The Dragon Star implies Chicken people can get help whenever they encounter an obstacle or trouble. Therefore, the career luck is for Chicken people is pretty good. Their job responsibilities will increase and the power of position will expand. A job promotion, job relocation or pay raise are possible. Because another Big Loss Star coming in the same year, there is a chance of up and down in the career path in 2010. Chicken people will have a stronger, determined and domineering personality. It’s very important for Chicken people to pay attention with their expressions and behaviors when dealing with people to eliminate the chance that your enemies may stab you in the back.

Money: Chicken people have good money luck in the Metal Tiger year. The major income will come from your career. If you own a business, then Purple Star and Dragon Star will help you to bring in more customers and increase your business profit. If you work for someone, in order to increase more income, you still need the help from your friends, supporters or helpers around. Since the Unlucky Star is there, the money luck might have a chance to become unstable. Therefore, Chicken people still need to watch for the budget and do extra savings, in case that you need a big unexpected expense in the near future. Chicken people shouldn’t do any short-term risky investment. There is no lottery, gambling or windfall luck in 2010.

Love: There is no particular Love Star or Romantic Star coming into Chicken people’s lives. Therefore, if you are single, then you need to be patience for wait for your true love. It’s tough to find someone you like by yourself. But you will have more chance to find a good match who is introduced by your friends or someone always cares you. If you have girl friend or boy friend, then your love relationship will be up and down. Chicken people need to control their temper to avoid the argument and possibly ruin the relationship. Married people might focus more on career and forget about expressing love to their spouses.

Health: The health of Chicken people is fair in 2010. It’s easy for Chicken people get scared or shocked in the Tiger year. One Unlucky Star implies that Chicken people have a chance to get accident.  If there is an injury, it might be related to Metal. Therefore, Chicken people need to pay attention on the safety at home, at work, traveling and driving. Since you have the Dragon Star and Purple Star in 2010, therefore any health issue shouldn’t become a big problem.

Fortune: Basically, Chicken people have a good luck in year of Tiger, because of two major Lucky Stars. The major event in the Metal Tiger year is related to money. The money is connected to friends, siblings, money and father. It’s also connected to spouse for male Chicken people. That means your money luck determined by the relationship with them. Therefore, you need to maintain good social and family relationships. There is a chance that Tiger year brings Chicken people good career luck and money luck together. But Chicken people shouldn’t become arrogant, self-satisfied or conceited. Your speeches and actions might change your fortune in 2010. It’s possible that a mistake can cause the loss of a job, money loss, a broken heart or even an injury.

I think this is a good start. I can say that I was lucky last year and I’m hoping that it will continue this year. Goodluck to all of us. This can be a good guide but we should not FORGET that GOD knows better. =)
