WHY GO OMBRE ????????????? WHY NOT ??????

Why go ombre?


Ombre is a French word that literally means shaded; think gradient color, like you'd see on a swatch of fabric or skein of yarn.  Ombre is a hot trend in hair color this year -- and with good reason!
1. Ombre is a lo-maintnance hair color technique.
OK, so nothing is more low maintenance than not coloring your hair, but comparatively speaking, ombre is a fairly easy hair color look to keep up (presuming you go from darker roots to lighter ends). For the least maintenance, go as close to your natural hair color as possible near your roots, then gradually go lighter down the hair shaft.
Drew Barrymore has dramatic color contrast between her roots and her ends, but because the transition is gradual (this is really key), it's not a harsh look. Rachel Bilson and Sarah Jessica Parker sport more subtle ombre looks -- gorgeous, we say!
2. Ombre is an anti-aging hair color trick.
Ombre hair coloring actually mimics the hair color of our childhoods. Remember when you'd get so much sun in the summer that your hair would lighten dramatically? Then, by mid-winter, you'd have that ombre look... naturally. Presuming your natural hair color isn't gray, ombre hair color looks very youthful.
3. Ombre is an easy way to grow out your roots.
Well, yeah, this isn't surprising, given that the whole point of the effect is to make it look on purpose like you're growing out your roots. Ombre actually makes dialing down your hair-coloring budget while retaining some of that expensive lighter color stylish.
4. Ombre is fun and on trend.
I am loving this look! It's fresh and unique. A little beachy and casual. It's an extremely flattering way to "go lighter." If you're thinking about a blonde hairstyle, but have always feared that it wouldn't flatter your complexion, ombre hair color is a nice compromise. Keep your natural color with closer to your face and transition as light as you dare at your ends.

PAUL NEWMAN'S TRIBUTE TO ELIZABETH TALOR

PAUL NEWMAN'S TRIBUTE .......
Paul Newman paid tribute to Elizabeth Taylor long before the dark-haired screen legend died. Elizabeth passed away yesterday from congestive heart failure at the age of 79. In the touching video, which was made long before Paul's death in 2008, Newman narrated the documentary tribute to his Cat on a Hot Tin Roof co-star.
In the early tribute video, Paul discussed how during the 1957 filming of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Taylor's husband Mike Todd died in a plane crash. Mike's death devastated Elizabeth but she continued working on the film. In Hollywood, the show apparently must always go on.
Speaking about that time, Newman stated, "In the midst of our filming Cat on a Hot Tin Roof she became a widow. Yet she persevered and acting was therapeutic. I was overwhelmed with her professionalism. She later said that playing Maggie 'The Cat' saved her."
Taylor's later years were filled with several painful health problems. Once can only hope she's found peace with Paul Newman and Mike Todd. Hopefully, they are laughing over past times together.

LIZ TAYLOR DIES.....

LOS ANGELES - Screen legend Elizabeth Taylor, the violet-eyed film goddess whose sultry screen life was often upstaged by her stormy personal life, died Wednesday at age 79.
She died of congestive heart failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she had been hospitalized for about six weeks, publicist Sally Morrison said.
"All her children were with her," Morrison said.
Taylor had extraordinary grace, fame and wealth, and won three Oscars, including a special one for her humanitarian work. But she was tortured by ill health, failed romances and personal tragedy.
"I think I'm becoming fatalistic," she said in 1989. "Too much has happened in my life for me not to be fatalistic."
Her eight marriages — including two to actor Richard Burton — and a lifelong battle with substance abuse, physical ailments and overeating made Taylor as popular in supermarket tabloids as in classic film festivals.
Taylor disclosed in November 2004 that she had congestive heart failure. But she still periodically dismissed reports that she was at death's door, saying she used a wheelchair only because of chronic back problems that began at age 12 when she fell from a horse.
"Oh, come on, do I look like I'm dying?" she said in May 2006 in a rare television interview on CNN's "Larry King Live." "Do I look like or sound like I have Alzheimer's?" Tabloids report such things "because they have nothing else dirty to write about anybody else," she said.
When she turned 75 the following year, she was asked about the secret to her longevity and quipped: "Hangin' in."
The London-born actress was a star at age 12, a bride and a divorcee at 18, a screen goddess at 19 and a widow at 26.
She appeared in more than 50 films, and won Oscars for her performances in "Butterfield 8" (1960) and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966), in which she starred opposite Burton.
In later years, she was a spokeswoman for several causes, most notably AIDS research. Her work gained her a special Oscar, the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, in 1993.
As she accepted it, she told a worldwide television audience: "I call upon you to draw from the depths of your being — to prove that we are a human race, to prove that our love outweighs our need to hate, that our compassion is more compelling than our need to blame."

TRUMP'S FLYAWAY HAIR.....


Flyaway hair during winter is a common problem because positive charges pick up your hair strands. Bad hair days equate to bad mood, and your hair makes it all too obvious by looking like it wants to leave you to play with snow (It's your lucky day, read these14 weird but effective ways to avoid a bad hair day ). A basic tip to get away from flyaway hair during winter is to add moisture. To make sure you get good hair days the whole year round, here are some tips that you’ll definitely find very easy to follow:
  • Tame your flyaway hair with hairspray. You can also spray your comb or hairbrush with a styling product or a hairspray, then tame your hair with it.
  • Expect static to be stronger during the cold months. The air gets dry inside your workplace or homes because of heating systems. To beat the cold and the static that comes with it, then spend $25 to get a humidifier.A humidifier evaporates drain water by ultrasonic vapor mechanisms or cooking some amounts of water. You can buy a humidifier with ultrasonic vapor mechanism if you are fine with producing cold fog in your house. The cooking device, on the other hand, will create steam. With a humidifier, your hair gets air with the right humidity level. Because of increased humidity, a reduction in static is made. If your hair is curly, your curls become stronger if the humidity is higher.
  • Use a gel or hair serum to tame your static hair. Gels and serums based on silicone are proven to tame your unruly hair. You can also use these products to make your hair smoother. Leave-on conditioners also help stylize your hair. Remember that a great way to get away with hair problems is to use the right hairstyling products.
  • Carry a lotion in your bag. You can use your body or hand lotion to tame your flyaway hair. Apply a little amount of lotion or cream on your hair and then run your fingers through the frizzy areas of your hair. If you are going to use lotion, remember to never use too much.
  • Use a dryer sheet and run it across your hair to get rid of flyaway hair. Shopping for hair products in general is easy as long as you know what you are looking for. In this case, look for products with essential oils, vitamin A, vitamin E, panthenol, biotin, jojoba, keratin, wheat germ or coconut oil because these substances tame your hair frizzy hair.
  • You can also try to dampen your hair. Wet your hands slightly and then run your fingers through your hair. You can also put water into a spray bottle and then spray water on your hair, especially on the areas with flyaway strands.
  • You can use static-free brushes. A dryer softener sheet will do the trick. Just rub it over your hair brush before brushing your hair. Your hair will not just become static-free but tangle-free as well.

Charlie's Back ????????


 Charlie Sheen may be out of a job, for now, but according to reports swirling on Monday the actor may be back on television sooner rather than later.

NBC News quoted sources close to Sheen as saying that CBS had offered the actor back his job on the hit comedy "Two and A Half Men", but no deal had been struck and discussions were ongoing.

Elsewhere, The Hollywood Reporter said Sheen met with senior executives at rival network Fox last week for talks.
