Reasons for Hair Loss


Both men and women lose hair for similar reasons. Hair loss in men is often more dramatic, and follows a specific pattern of loss which has been termed "Male Pattern Baldness". This loss is caused by dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Factors for male hair loss include: heredity, hormones, and aging.

This may also apply to women but to a lesser degree. Women may experience loss of hair after menopause and 2-3 months after having a baby. Other contributing factors include: poor diet, poor circulation, acute illness, radiation, chemotherapy, high stress, thyroid imbalance, certain drugs, coming off the contraceptive pill, diabetes, high doses of vitamin A (more than 100,000 IU), sudden weight loss, high fever, iron deficiency, ringworm, some fungal infections, chemicals and hair dyes, vitamin deficiencies, and lack of proper nutrition.

Drastic or premature hair loss may be caused by:
1. Stress and bodily weakness from overwork.

2. Dietary imbalances or nutritional deficiency.

3. Using abrasive shampoos, hair lacquers, dyes and bleaching, etc.

4. Endocrine disorder.

5. Genetic factors.

6. Infectious diseases.

7. Hormonal metabolic changes in lactating women.

8. Nutrient and protein deficiencies in the hair cells.

7 Do’s and Don’ts hair

All hair types need to use a conditioning treatment at least monthly. From blow-drying to coloring, and from flat-irons to swimming, we all do things that are damaging and dulling to our hair. Pamper your stressed hair at least once a month with hot oils and other deep conditioners that will restore it to its best condition.

1. Do you really know how to shampoo your hair? When washing your hair, work the lather from roots to ends. Always massage scalp well with your fingertips — never with fingernails.

2. Don't condition your roots. No matter what type of hair you have, you do not need conditioner there. Roots are close to the oil glands and that's plenty of lubrication. Besides, roots don't get damaged like the rest of the tresses. Apply conditioner at the nape of your neck and work up and through hair, concentrating on the ends.

3. DO make sure you completely coat your ends with conditioner.

4. DO rinse with cool water to help seal the cuticle and lock in more shine.

5. DO dry your hair without damaging it. Pressing your dryer directly on your hair will not dry it faster or make it straighter. This technique causes the hair shaft to expand and the outer layer to curl up, which produces a fuzzy look. Wrap your hair in a towel until it is about halfway dry. Then, hold your dryer five inches away from your hair aiming from roots to ends.

6. When straightening your curly hair with a flat iron, always have a leave-in conditioner spray on your side. The direct heat from flat irons can cause damage to your hair. To combat this damage, spritz a leave-in conditioner on each hair "chunk" before putting the flat iron on it.

7. When adding curl to your straight hair with a curling iron, always have a leave-in conditioner spray on your side. The direct heat from curling irons can cause damage to your hair. To combat this damage, spritz a leave-in conditioner on each hair "chunk" before applying the curling iron.

Tips to find your skin type

1. Cleanse your face with cleansing milk.

2. After an hour, take a clean tissue and wipe your forehead, nose, chin and cheeks. If you find oily residue from all of the above mentioned areas, then you have oily skin.

3. If you find oily residue on the tissue only from forehead, nose and chin then you have combination skin.

4. If the tissue picks up dry, flaky skin then you have dry skin.

5. Those lucky few Scooty girls who pick up neither oil nor dry flakes can be said to have normal skin.

6. There are others who have very sensitive skin which reacts quickly and often adversely to hot and cold temperatures, common place chemicals found in soaps, detergents and cosmetics. Those with sensitive skin have to be careful before choosing any product.

Tips to improve your personal and business relationship

  1. Do not call for when you are in need only; say hallo to a friend or business partner is important. Even you only say "how are you". It is a bad habit if you call your friend or business partner only when you need something from them. This attitude make you lost many friends or lost respect from your partner.
  2. Answer messages or call back as you can.
  3. Say thanks and sorry
  4. Listen to what she/he says
  5. Never tell a lie
  6. Avoid gossiping others

Always remember, you can make more friends in two months by becoming really interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.

Head-to-Toe Anti-Aging Tips



Advances in medical technology have shot life expectancy indicators off the chart. Today, it's not uncommon to live well past 100 years of age (at least in Japan). But if you have any hope of maintaining your health for a century, it's important to acknowledge basic body- and mind-care rituals, like flossing and taking your vitamins, wearing sunscreen and exercising your mind. Click here for a preventative guide to keeping your every body part a hundred-years healthy.

Give your brain cells a solid workout by changing everyday routines. Brush your teeth with the opposite hand. Find your keys in your purse by touch alone (don't look inside!). Try a more challenging crossword puzzle or Sudoku game.

Skin

Wear sunscreen every day (don't forget your neck and the backs of your hands) and consider using an OTC or prescription cream that contains retinol, a powerful ingredient that can help erase fine lines.


Muscles

Strength-train, then drink fat-free milk. In studies, exercisers who drank two glasses a day lost more fat and built more muscle than those who didn't.

Joints

Skip the sweets. High blood sugar makes the collagen in your connective tissue less pliable and can lead to stiff joints and even arthritis. It can also worsen existing joint aches and pains.

Eyes

Ward off age-related macular degeneration with C and E. Eat a spinach salad with mandarin oranges and almonds, or consider taking a multivitamin containing 500 mg vitamin C and 400 IU vitamin E.

Heart

Floss every day. It helps prevent gum disease, which has been linked to heart attack and stroke.

Bones

Get vitamin K2 (you need about 90 micrograms a day) from leafy greens like romaine lettuce and spinach. It moves calcium from your blood to your bones.

Wet dreams

Wet dreams

Wet dreams are generally defined as erotic dreams that culminate with an orgasm. They are very commonly associated with nocturnal emissions--an involuntary ejaculation that occurs while one is asleep (hence the "wet" in the phrase "wet dreams").

Who experiences them? Wet dreams typically occur in males during their prepubescent and teenage years. Though they usually taper off as guys mature, some men may experience wet dreams well into adulthood. Girls experience wet dreams also; however they aren't as common (or aren't as easily recognized by women, as by men).When a female experiences a wet dream, the vagina becomes lubricated as she becomes sexually aroused in her dream. However, less liquid is produced by females, leaving little evidence of a wet dream when she wakes up.

Why do they occur? Doctors aren't one-hundred percent sure why wet dreams happen; however, they do have some theories. Some believe that nocturnal emissions occur because of an actual sexual dream and the process of becoming aroused by the dream. For instance, while a guy is asleep his body responds as if he was actually experiencing what he was dreaming of.

Another theory is that wet dreams are a way the body gets rid of "built-up" semen, and that "built-up" semen are due to a lack of masturbation. Yet, many doctors dispute this theory.

Testosterone-based drugs may be another factor in the occurrence of wet dreams. Studies have indicated that men who take testosterone-based drugs experience more wet dreams than the average male.

One last thing to note is that while asleep, "the body goes through a resting test of your sexual body parts," . This means that males get erections about four to six times during an eight-hour period and females lubricate approximately the same amount of times.

When does it happen? While asleep, our bodies enter a period known as REM, or rapid eye movement. This period can last from a few minutes to a half an hour and is the point in which sleepers have the most vivid dreams. Wet dreams, or nocturnal emissions, usually occur during the REM period of sleep.

How often does it happen? There's no average number--some can have wet dreams once every two months, or more rarely, once every two days. There are some people who have never had a nocturnal emission at all. One interesting thing to note is that a person who sleeps in is more likely to have a wet dream than someone who wakes up early because the extra hours lead to more REM sleep. So, based on this, wet dreams are more likely to happen on the weekend than during the typical school week.

Are wet dreams bad? Wet dreams are a normal part of life and many people experience them. According to some studies, 90% of males and 37% of females have wet dreams from time to time. And don't worry...no physical harm is caused by wet dreams.

However, history hasn't always been so kind--in the 18th and 19th centuries, circumcision (the surgical removal of the entire or part of the foreskin) and castration (the removal of the testicles of a male or the ovaries of the female) were often advised to treat this "disease."

Can you prevent wet dreams? While there is no known treatment for stopping the occurrence of wet dreams, there are some things that reduce the chance of experiencing one. Some experts believe that masturbation or sex during waking hours will lower the frequency of wet dreams--however there is no guarantee.

Love or sex, Tips to find out is your date is looking for Love or Sex

Here are some tips and behaviors that portray interest in sex vs. relationship during the first couple of dates or early on in the relationship:

1. When a guy is interested in the details and stories of your sexual history on the first and second dates - he is interested in sex...

2. Your date is commenting obsessively on body parts, yours and other women - he is not into relationship - he is into sex.

3. If /when he tells you details of his own sexual history, too soon into the 'relationship', even under the guise of confiding, he is interested in sex.

4. Consider his ability to maintain eye contact with you. If he is very shy and cannot maintain eye contact, he'll look down at his shoes or at the floor. However, if/when he speaks with you and keeps focusing on your breasts and following your breasts with his eyes, even as you move around - it is a red flag: he is not shy and he is not interested in really getting to know you…

5. If there is spontaneous touching, which you feel is inappropriate – it probably is.

6. Not all relationships start like the examples above. Most dating relationships begin with interests to see and get to know each other. For the women who got hurt in relationships that turned to be sexual encounters only, being strategic and mindful is a way to continue to date… carefully.
