    Hair Loss from Hair Straightening

    hair rebonding pix

    Hair rebonding, the latest hair trend among women, can lead to hair loss. It gives you a silky, super straight hair, the way the girls in hair commercials look, and the way Jennifer Lopez used to look, but it can also leave you bald.

    In Singapore, a 14 year-old girl had big clumps of hair falling off in the shower a year after the process. Her hair started breaking 2 months after being rebounded.

    In Manila, a woman is suing her hairdresser for bald patches on her head after a similar treatment. Her scalp started stinging during the process itself and hair fell off in clumps shortly after.

    Hair rebonding is a process where the chemical bonds in your hair are broken, rearranged and bonded back again permanently using very strong chemicals. It is one of the most damaging things that you can do to your hair.

    During rebonding, perming lotion is added to soften the hair and breakdown its bonds. After this is washed off, hair is placed between 2 metal plates of an electric styling device, which uses heat to pull the hair rod straight. A neutralizer is applied to reset the bonds and stabilize the hair.

    Hair is irreversibly altered after the perming process. Chemically treated hair shafts are weaker and fracture more easily. This can lead to hair loss.

    Hair becomes fragile and has to be handled with extreme care after treatment. A natural reflex, like tucking your hair behind your ears or tying your hair in the first month can be disastrous.

    The process can also cause damage and burns to the skin and scalp. For example, hair can be damaged if the various chemicals are left on the hair for too long, or if ironing is done with an iron at higher than 180C.

    Conventional methods of straightening hair use hair straightening lotions (like the relaxer, straightening cream and temporary straightening gel), which result in dry, brittle, and split ends prone hair.

    Rebonding gives you softer hair and higher risks because it uses more toxic chemicals like sodium hydroxide, guanidine hydroxide. ammonium thioglycolate.

    Sodium hydroxide is a caustic chemical that can burn the skin, and break or damage hair. The stronger the solution used (for better effects), the more potential damage can occur to the hair.

    Guanidine hydroxide is less damaging than sodium hydroxide, but it may still damage hair and it can definitely de-fat the scalp. The treatment can cost up to over US $ 500, and lasts only 4-6 months.

    Ammonium Thioglycolate is a known cause of irritant contact dermatitis in hairdressers and their clients.

    Maintaining the rebonded look means continual touch-ups, at the least, every 6 months. This puts you at further risks of hair loss, eventually, and prematurely leaving your full head of hair nothing but a memory.

  • Womens Facial Hair- the Laser Hair Removal Solution

    Nads Laser Hair Removal Clinic asked:


    Women’s Excessive Facial Hair Growth – there’s no need to suffer!

    Excessive facial or body hair in women is a condition called hirsutism. Hirsutism either runs in the family, usually presenting at menopause and puberty, or it can be an indicator of a larger underlying problem. Research indicates that up to 10-12% of the Australian female population is affected by Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome which can be linked to excessive hair growth and hirsutism.

    Hereditary hirsutism is largely an aesthetic rather than a health concern. When not hereditary it is most likely the result of excessive male hormone production (adrenal virilism), or an increased sensitivity of the hair follicle to normal male hormone levels. It is important to both a woman’s health and her self-con dence to have this condition diagnosed by a doctor. Hirsutism and any hormone imbalance that may underlie this condition can be treated. Excessive facial and/or body hair can be managed. Electrolysis is one means of managing excess hair but this can be painful, slow and very costly requiring many visits as only one follicle at a time is usually treated by sending an electrical pulse down the hair shaft.

    Laser hair removal (as distinct from the much less effective IPL) is a much more manageable maintenance procedure as it treats a larger number of follicles at a time, is more comfortable than electrolysis and provides fast effective treatments. Hormonal hair growth via Laser Hair Removal therapy is efficient and manageable but not always a permanent solution as it is likely that hormonal hair regrowth may occur although usually at a much slower rate and usually much thinner than before, so hirsutism sufferers should be wary of claims by any service provider that they will achieve a permanent solution.

    A woman might consider bleaching her facial hair, which makes it less visible alternatively regularly waxing can also assist. All of these methods should be used as means to treating the symptom, but any woman with progressing hirsutism should consult a doctor for a diagnosis in order not to compromise her health, or her self-confidence.

    Nad’s Laser Hair Removal Clinic treats a number of hirsutism sufferer’s however warns that when it comes to facial hair, clients need to carefully select their treatment provider as Nad’s Clinics see a large number of clients that have been treated by inexperienced IPL and Laser Clinics. Inappropriate treatment can result in additional hair growth to facial or hormonal areas. Nad’s Laser Hair Removal Clinic warns that ONLY the affected areas should be treated by highly skilled therapists that have a sound understanding and many years experience in dealing with skin as inappropriate treatments may result in adverse side effects.. Additionally, certain medications are photosensitive and can result in an adverse affect if a pre treatment Consultation is not accurately conducted by skilled Therapists.

  • New York City Laser Hair Removal

    If you are looking for New York City laser hair removal, you’ve chosen the right place! New York is a city that offers a plethora of services to help you look and feel better about your appearance. Laser hair removal is one of the many things you can now do to have your appearance enhanced without having surgery. Laser hair removal isn’t just for beauty queens and it’s not even just for women!

    Unsightly hair on your face, back, knuckles or elsewhere can be more than unsightly, it can interfere with your confidence. Many people strive for a more polished appearance for many reasons and it’s not just fashion models that want a clean and polished look. Men and women of all ages are taking advantage of laser hair removal because it’s more affordable than ever and can have very positive results.

    If you would like to know if you are a good candidate for laser hair removal or another cosmetic procedure, you can often find a New York City laser hair removal clinic who will give you a free consultation. They can look at your problem area and advise you of a price and treatment plan. Some individuals react better to this treatment than others so most won’t guarantee exact results.

    Those who are the most impacted by unwanted hair tend to have coarse, dark hair and as a matter of fact, these are the people that can have the best results with laser removal of hair. The laser targets hair with pigmentation and dark hair has plenty of melatonin in it. The laser safely damages the follicle and nothing else and the result is diminished or retarded hair growth.

    The result?

    Instead of feeling disheartened about your appearance which can stop you from doing things you enjoy you can feel more confident and assured that people are not looking at your unwanted body hair. Men who had a unibrow now look younger and more groomed. Men who want to go to the beach are not self conscious about removing their shirts due to back hair. Women with unsightly facial hair aren’t anxious about whether or not they have re-growth every few weeks. The benefits are almost immeasurable.

    One of the great benefits about laser hair removal is that the results are much better than that of waxing, shaving or using hair removal creams. Those things have mounting costs over time and take a fair amount of time and effort. While laser hair treatments do seem like an investment in the beginning, in the long run when you weigh the cost with the time you save, the money you are not spending on hair removal products and the increased self confidence you have it can be well worth that investment.

  • Laser Hair Removal in New York City

    Are you thinking about seeking out some laser hair removal in New York City? Fortunately, New York offers a wide array of options for having this done. Many people both male and female are now using laser hair removal services performed in order to help them rid themselves of unwanted body hair. It’s being done by men and women for facial areas, chests, legs, back, underarms and other parts of the body as well.

    Hair is a beautiful thing but when you have hair on unwanted areas of your body, shaving, using depilatory creams and waxing can feel like an endless and costly battle. While there’s a bit of a financial investment in having laser hair removal done, if you look at the cost benefit analysis you can see that the cost is easily justifiable.

    It takes time, effort and money to continually deal with hair removal. Laser hair removal helps you remove the hair by going below the skin’s surface and damaging the hair follicle so that re-growth is greatly diminished or even completely inhibited. Some people have better results than others and it may take several laser treatments to get the best results. Have you ever been out in public and caught your reflection and realised that you wish you had plucked or waxed in an area? It can impact your schedule and reduce your self confidence.

    Those who are looking at the cost of laser treatments which vary depending on where you live and how much of a coverage area you want, should consider the time and effort saved as well as the money saved that no longer needs to be spent on razors, shaving creams, expensive lotions and potions or paying to have waxing done on a regular basis.

    Ideal candidates for laser hair removal include those with dark hair. The laser is attracted to pigment in the hair and if the hair has any color to it, the laser can detect it and damage the follicle.

    Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?

    Hair removal isn’t pain-free but is not as uncomfortable as you might expect. If you are looking for laser hair removal in New York City, you will probably find that clinics will talk a little bit about pain in their brochure. Many describe the process as stinging or pinching but most use a cooling mechanism built into their laser and topical creams to ease pain. The pain is short term and you can go about your regular day when you leave the laser hair removal clinic.

    Hair removal can do a lot for your appearance and your self esteem. Some people find that they grow more unwanted hair as they age and it’s not unusual for older men and women to make appointments for consultations for electrolysis or laser removal of hair. It’s never too late to take an interest in improving your appearance and lasers are a method that are considered widely recognized and very safe for removal of hair. If you want laser hair removal in New York or elsewhere you shouldn’t have very much trouble locating a clinic willing to help you with this and other cosmetic issues.

  • Women’s Health Services: the Need of the Day

    Posted on April 19th, 2008 Aries 1 comment
    Roland Jefferson asked:


    Women are naturally the caregivers. This happens to a woman by instinct, and this role usually allows them to slip into personal neglect. It so happens that women are the stronger of the two sexes when it comes to health and capacity of bearing pain both mentally and physically. It is a matter of debate whether this is the reason why they ignore their own health in the process or not.

    Are The Existing Women’s Health Services Adequate For Women?

    The question might be wrong, if you look at the general trends of real life. It should have read, “Are women responding or enjoying the facilities provided by the women’s health services?” Let us analyze this topic a little. There are certain health concerns and facts that every girl and boy should know right from the time of puberty. Actually the best time for the child to find out about the ‘birds and the bees’ is just around this time.

    If the foundation is strong, there would be a habit formation that in turn will bring the woman for regular check-ups and enjoy the women’s health services offered in the area they live in. By default a woman tends to look beyond herself to take care of others. It is not uncommon to have women that have sold their entire house and every valuable thing they have to treat a member of their family.

    However, when it comes to their own health, they tend to ignore it, even if they have access to the best of best women’s health services. Women need to give themselves more importance. The funny part is, that she has the knowledge and experience to take care of everyone, but she never applies it to herself.

    It is imperative that women learn to pay attention to their own needs, too. Neglecting one’s health does not profit anybody, in anyway. Actually one should visit the women’s health services to make them laugh. All you have to do is to have one check-up once in two years, at least. This is sufficient to diagnose any life threatening diseases in time for curing; otherwise you will have to face the dire consequences.

    The lives of many women have been lost for mere negligence. Hence, it is advisable to have a full-check up every two-three years once you are in the 30-40s. Some diseases are totally silent, and unless they are caught and cured in the earliest stages, these are the ones who can prove fatal.

  • Women’s Health Information for the Heart

    Posted on February 6th, 2008 Aries 1 comment
    Roland Jefferson asked:


    When you think of heart disease, you probably think of a risk of death for men. However, since 1984 more women have died from cardiovascular disease than men. While more men are at a greater risk of having a heart attack than women, women are only half as likely to survive a heart attack as a man. The risk factors and symptoms of heart disease may be different for women. That’s why women’s health information on the topic of heart disease is so important.

    Risks and Symptoms

    For anyone, smoking is makes heart disease more likely. While women’s health information shows that premenopausal women have some protection against artherosclerosis because of the presence of estrogen, that protection isn’t enough to cover the added risk of smoking or diabetes. Atherosclerosis is a condition in which blood vessels become clogged and narrowed because of the buildup of fatty substances.

    The resulting decrease of blood flow causes the symptoms of coronary heart disease. High levels of cholesterol are a risk for heart disease. Especially bad are high levels of LDL cholesterol. Diabetes is as great a risk for a heart attack as heart disease is. A woman with diabetes has the same risk of heart attack as a woman with heart disease.

    According to the best women’s health information, diabetic women should manage their blood sugar and get aggressive treatment with LDL cholesterol lowering drugs. The leading cause of death for women with diabetes is cardiovascular disease.

    A woman’s risk of atherosclerosis rises over the age of 55. Family history can be a risk factor if a woman has a brother or father diagnosed with atherosclerosis before the age of 55 or if she has a sister or mother diagnosed before the age of 65. The latest women’s health information shows that obesity makes a woman much more likely to develop heart health problems.

    Problems linked to obesity include coronary heart disease, stroke, congestive heart failure and heart disease related death. According to women’s health information, metabolic syndrome is the combination of abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, pre-diabetes and high cholesterol. Metabolic syndrome is associated with an increased risk of heart disease.

    When a woman is the strong one in the family, she may be less likely to complain about small aches and pains. This can lead to missing early signs of heart disease. According to the best women’s health information, silent ischemia is a result of atherosclerosis that doesn’t cause pain or any specific symptoms.

    A woman who is at risk of heart disease should have an EKG to rule this out. Women need to look to women’s health information to learn about their risk of that man’s disease – cardiovascular disease.

All of us are searching for an easy way to remove hair from our body, we search all over the internet for the answers, but all the sources that are on the internet are pretty much the same. Hair removal is a little painful and you will need to continually go for treatment, hair removal is not a one shot deal.

    People have tried everything to get rid of unwanted hair, they have tried plucking, waxing and bleaching but the problem still remains, the hair will grow back. There are many different options when it comes to hair removal, there are affordable options but you must understand that when using more cost effective procedures the length of time the hair remains removed will be of a shorter time span.

    Laser Body Hair Removal is growing rapidly in popularity as men and women become more conscious of their body image. Most people who have a lot of hair on their body are embarrassed when going to any type of event that involves taking off clothing. When people go swimming in the summer most people are embarrassed about taking of their clothing because of the hair on their body. The removal of body hair is becoming more widespread and prevalent because in today’s world no hair is sexier.

    Why should you use a laser to remove hair? Men and women from all walks of life are turning in increasing numbers to laser to remove unwanted hair from their bodies. The latest technology has created machines that allow technicians to remove your hair from virtually any where on your body; it only works if the hair is fully grown it does not work on small or peach fuzz hair. To remove the hair by the root it must be at least 1/4 inch or 6 mm long.

    If you are looking for permanent hair removal many people choose electrolysis, using this option leaves your skin virtually void of hair. Try to find a practitioner who will put their claim of permanent hair removal in writing with a guarantee.

    Time peel is a valuable solution for clients with large pores, chapped skin and fine wrinkles, as well as for improvement of the skin pigmentation. If you are going to shave your pubic hair make sure you use a wet shaver, if you cannot completely dry the area before shaving. Light skin is the preferred choice for laser hair removal and fewer treatments will be required.

    Hair removal has become very popular and laser hair removal has become an alternative to waxing and shaving because when you use laser treatments unwanted hair is removed and after many treatments it is permanently removed or reduced. Waxing is another method that many women use, but this hair removal system can be very painful. One of the most cost effective methods of removing hair still remains and that is tweezing and waxing.
