New York Salon Care in your Home

Nexxus

by Lisa Gal

Did you know if you color your hair you should only be washing it about 2 times a week with a color preserving shampoo? Well, if I’m going to cut back the washing that much I am going to need a lot more cans of Nexxus Dry Shampoo Refreshing Mist! Not only does my hair smell so fresh and clean afterwards, but it soaks up the shine while preserving my style. Nexxus Dry Shampoo helps reduce fade too while reinvigorating my hair. To apply, simply shake the can and spray on the roots. Rub the shampoo into your hair and brush out for refreshed hair.

Pick Workout Clothes that work for you



I often get asked the question, “How do I get the right workout clothes for me?” So I came up with a quick little guide that will help anyone who is purchasing new workout gear. When trying on workout clothes is it always very important to get your true size (not a small when you truly wear a medium) no one will see your size it is sewn on the inside. If you get a size to small or even too big you will regret it.
Here are a few tips that you should do when you are in the dressing room. Make sure you get the big dressing room because you are going to be doing some big moves.

1.  Stand with your feet hip width apart and raise your hands above your head, reach for the ceiling, really stretch, come up on your tippy toes so that you can reach your full stance.  You are doing this so that you ensure your top is not riding up and that your workout pants are not slipping down.

2.  Keep your left arm above your head, drop the other arm to your side and do a side bend to the right, keeping both feet firmly on the floor, do a nice full stretch. You want to make sure your top does not rise too much but if you don’t mind some skin showing you can choose what your comfort level is. Repeat on the other side.
3.  Bring both hands down and touch your toes.  You want to make sure your workout pants are not creeping down those hips.

4.  Stand tall and raise one knee to your chest, grab with both hands and pull in close to your body, make sure you have the flexibility and ability to move your leg easily, repeat with the other leg.

5.  Squat down and place your elbows on your knees with your hands together like you are praying. Again, make sure that the pants are not creeping down, we don’t want any plumbers crack in the gym. If you follow these simple tips, you will find the perfect workout clothes for you.

Top Hollywood Couples- Divorces among Hollywood Celebrities

Madonna_GuyRitchie_CustodyBattle

The stories of famous couples splitting up often flood the media and divorces continue to be a common occurrence in Hollywood. Different couples end their marriages for different reasons. Anytime a relationship comes to an abrupt end, the situation is sensitive regardless of how well known the individuals are.

In the midst of conflict, blaming each other and grieving the demise of the marriage, divorcing couples have to interact constantly as they negotiate the terms of their divorce. Divorce has an extensive effect on the couple, their children, relatives and fans around the world.

Hollywood Divorces- Empathy and Entertainment

When the media provides news about famous divorcing couples, people everywhere monitor the situation closely. Attention-grabbing headlines such as ‘Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise call it quits’ are bound to elicit reactions, especially when people have been watching a celebrity romance unfold. Most celebrities are used to the fact that they will no longer enjoy privacy.

A high-profile divorce gives fans and critics the chance to share the opinions about the relationship and why it may be ending. While marriage may essentially be between two individuals, ongoing media coverage of a celebrity union ensures that other people are able to get access to their private issues. Hollywood divorces continue to be popular topics that are regarded as entertaining.

Public Scrutiny

The exposure of celebrity couples typically begins through both intentional and unintentional public displays of affection that are captured by the media. The intricacies of the relationship are shared widely and when the couple starts a family, members of the public feel like they are involved.

When the couple starts experiencing relationship problems, issues such as infidelity, drugs and egos arise. The pair eventually breaks up and the public anxiously waits to see if they will move on to new relationships or possibly reconcile. Visit www.liasesolutions.com/oakland for more.

Top Hollywood Divorces

Various top Hollywood couples have gotten divorced over the years and these include:

  • Mel and Robyn Gibson
  • Michael and Juanita Jordan
  • Steven Spielberg and Amy Irving
  • Kenny and Marianne Rogers
  • Michael and Diandra Douglas
  • Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise
  • Donald and Ivana Trump
  • Kevin Costner and Cindy Silva
  • Madonna and Guy Ritchie
  • Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries.

It is virtually impossible to keep up with numerous Hollywood divorces and there are various reasons why celebrities end up divorcing. These include jealousy, incompatible schedules and financial challenges.

Insecurities

Hollywood celebrities are likely to find themselves in situations that create insecurity and jealousy in their marriages. They also face a lot of tempting situations that occur both on and off camera. The media also plays a significant role in transforming harmless situations such as a hug between co-actors at a party into an intimate affair.

Time Apart

A Hollywood career usually involves a lot of travelling and spending time away from spouses and families. A marriage can become problematic if the spouses are constantly apart or consumed by the vibrant Hollywood lifestyle.

Battle of Egos

For most Hollywood celebrities, the attention from fans and media is quite an ego boost. A famous individual may begin to feel like he or she is extremely important and take their partner for granted. This is a common challenge among so-called new celebrities who are yet to get used to a life of fame and wealth.

The Final Five

olympics-team-j-800

I loved watching the Olympics. The U.S. women’s gymnastics team impressed me. I can’t imagine all the time, dedication and practice it takes to get to the Games, much less participate in them. The ladies of the team looked so happy doing what they love to do– and they did it well!

For me, the gymnastics competition was kind of like watching a football game where it comes down to the last minute to see who wins. Midway through their events, the U.S. team led by four points and then they came in first place outdistancing their biggest competition, Russia, by 8.209 points. This was a pretty big deal because it was the first time the U.S. women’s gymnastics team won back-to-back Olympic golds. They were #1 in 2012 and now they’re #1 again– that’s pretty amazing.

I also liked how the team chose a nickname, “The Final Five.” It reminded me of how you have to not only think of what you want your goal to be, in life, but also write it down, name it, tell others about it, etc. These ladies– Laurie Hernandez, Madison Kocian, Simone Biles, Aly Raisman, and Gabby Douglas– showed the world how young ladies can reach their dreams. They sure did inspire me, and I’m thinking there’s a whole generation of young women who look up to them, too.

xoxo, Lizzy
