Hair spray contain many VOCs (volatile organic compounds) which cause serious damage to the ozone such as ozone depletion. These compounds, including methane as known as CFC (Chlorofluorocarbon), have been serious factors causing global warming. CFC was developed in the 1930s under the trade name Freon. “CFC was supposed to be wonder chemicals since they are nontoxic, nonflammable, don't react with any common chemicals, and thus were assumed to be safe for the environment” (undsci.berkeley.edu).

According to a recent research presented at the dermatologist conference in Gothenburg by the University of Gothenburg's Faculty of Science and the University of Gothenburg, the fragrances used in many household and skincare products can cause contact allergy when exposed to oxygen in the air (sciencedaily.com). To determine whether the activated fragrances caused contact allergy, scientists tested on eczema patients at Sahlgrenska University Hospital's Dermatology Clinic and the Occupational and Environmental Dermatology Clinic in Malmö. The result showed a very high percentage of the 3,400 eczema patients tested had an allergic reaction to the activated fragrance.

This is one of the best hairstyles for long thick hair. It is incredibly simple and represents a perfect way to keep your hair out of the face preserving all styling points. You should start with gathering the hair into a high ponytail and secure it with some holder. The fishtail must be done by separating the ponytail into two sections, then grabbing small pieces from the outside of each section so that finally they meet in the middle. You proceed in the following way until the whole ponytail is braided. When you are through, secure the bottom with some ponytail holder.

I attended the Broadway show entitled "Hairspray." The show was performed at Neil Simon Theatre in New York City. The setting of the play took place in Baltimore in 1962. At the beginning of the play, we are led to believe that the main idea is about a teenage girl who is struggling to become popular and famous. The main character Tracy Turnblad, who is played by Shannon Durig, is a young, overweight, teenage girl.

Hairspray, a John Waters’ musical, demonstrates progressive messages about the expansion of race-based civil rights in the 1960s . Although this is typically the lens through which Hairspray is viewed, this is not the only significant societal shift portrayed in the film. The stories of Edna Turnblad and Velma Von Tussle illustrate the progressive shift of women from “old” gender roles such as being excluded from the workplace to “new” gender roles where women begin taking managerial positions.
The hidden ingredients in most lipsticks are Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Retinyl Palmitate, D&C Red 36, D&C Red 22 Aluminum Lake, and Tocopheryl Acetate. Most of these harsh chemicals all have an effect of cancer or helps develop some form of disease. This is why most companies do not disclose this piece of information on its label, because they are afraid people will not purchase the object if they knew the effects of the harsh chemicals.
A popular discussion amongst the natural hair community is hair typing. Natural hair, in particular, can be extremely complex as one can have multiple hair textures. Subsequently, determining your hair type can benefit you greatly as you embark on this journey. Knowing your hair type can, not only, help you figure out which products work best with your particular grade of hair, but it can also help you determine which hairstyles will work best with your hair. As the natural hair movement has evolved, so have the hair typing systems. Currently there are three main typing systems, Andre Walker, L.O.I.S, and F.I.A.

It’s no secret that fragrance matters to us. It is a huge part of how we experience the products we use and the world at large. For this reason, it’s a deal breaker when it comes to our beauty and personal care products, especially if it’s a product that you leave on the hair and skin or a fragrance that lingers. Many of us have given up products that worked well because we could not stand the smell or because our significant other complained. The fact that fragrance affects not just us but those around us is something we often tend to overlook. Fashion icon Sarah Jessica Parker of Sex and the City once said this about fragrance "It 's immediately communicating more than your clothes, which we think tell our story, right? But clothes don 't invade anybody else 's space.” That’s so true. You can look away if a coworker is wearing something you don’t like, but you can’t hold your breath all day, now can you? Fragrance can even linger in a space long after the wearer has gone or linger on your close, long after you hugged your best friend. Fragrance has such a
It is time, at last, to speak the truth about toxic chemicals behind personal care and beauty products. The daily products of an average person consists of face wash, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, floss, toothpaste, and deodorant. Surprisingly, all of these products listed contain toxic chemicals that are harmful to our body. If we use these products to maintain our hygiene, does that mean we are not clean without these products? For example, a common shampoo many people use is Head and Shoulders. However, do we know if the shampoo is cleaning our hair from beginning to end or is it damaging our hair? How often do you read the ingredients labeled on your personal care products and wonder if they are safe to use? More importantly, if you
