...I do believe that personal care is an important part of living because I know that it can help you to keep your body healthy. To achieve a healthy body, you need to have healthy skin, hair, nails, mouth, teeth, eyes, and ears. I know that I need to take steps to keep my body healthy and that it is important to have doctors to help you do this. First, because your skin is the largest organ of your body, I know that it is important to always take good care of it. You need to protect it because your skin is needed to help regulate body temperature, help to protect your body from pathogens, it makes a barrier for your body and internal organs against water, and you need it to feel because it is a sense organ. It is also important to maintain healthy hair. By keeping my hair healthy, I can avoid problems like dandruff, which is flaking of the outer layer of...

...key in fighting dry hair. The baggy method is a good way to do this. At night, comb or finger comb through your hair, dividing it into several sections. Apply a moisturizing agent on your hair's ends, working it in with your hands or comb so that they're saturated. Good moisturizers include plain olive oil, jojoba oil, coconut oil, shea butter and sweet almond oil. However, if you have a commercial product that works well at keeping your hair soft and supple, use that. You may also want to use a leave-in conditioner first, and apply oil on top of it. After applying your product, place a plastic bag (sandwich size or smaller is suitable) over your ends and secure the bag with a rubber band. Make sure the band is over the bag and not on your hair -- you don't want the elastic tugging at your hair all night. A variation on this is the ponytail method, which you can use if you either don't have time to separate your hair into different sections or just prefer a simpler way to baggy. Pull hair into a loose ponytail and moisturize your ends. Apply a bag to the ends and secure. Cover your hair as you normally would for nighttime protection and remove the bags in the morning. Over the Entire Head Maybe you need an overall moisturizing treatment. The baggy method works for an entire head, too. Comb or finger comb through your hair well. Apply products listed above, but instead of only focusing on the ends, work them through your entire head of hair. Wrap your hair around your head;...

...Hair is the ultimate accessory; it can add to (or detract from) your overall look instantly. Keeping it in healthy condition is the most important thing you can do to help it look and feel fabulous.

So whether your concern is dullness, damage, frizz or fragility, we have the answers to ease even the toughest hair-care woes. Read on for tips to achieve run-your-fingers-through-it hair. 1 Steer clear of plastic-bristle brushes. "The proper bristles are key," says stylist Edward Tricomi of the Warren-Tricomi Salon in New York City.

Our favorite brushes include the Mason Pearson Boar Bristle brush ($78.50; zitomer.com) and Aveda's Wooden Paddle Brush ($17; aveda.com). 2 Brush before shampooing.

Corneocytes - the flattened dead keratinocytes that together make up the very outer layer of the epidermis is called the stratum corneum or horny layer. This protective layer is continually worn away or shed. Melanocytes – produce the pigment melanin that protects against UV radiation and gives skin its colour.

...It is four pm and raining outside, which is a typical Vancouver, Washington weather. I was at the library doing what I loved to do; people watching. And it is my homework, how cool is that? When I looked around the room I saw varieties of people. No one was really gaining my interest. Some people were there to hangout while others studied in groups. Some people were on the computer roaming the famous “Facebook”. There was one woman that caught my eye. There was something about the woman that I was interested in, though I could not figure out why. I started to analyze the woman's looks then her behaviors. I was also looking at the woman's surroundings. The more I had analyzed the woman, the more I was interested. I tried hard not to make it too obvious that I was watching the woman. I sat behind this young man which helped me hide better and doing so, it made things easier for me and made things more uncomfortable for the young man that I was sitting behind. I had to do what I had to do to get my work done. Besides, my teacher said to observe for twenty minutes. I observed for twenty minutes which is not very long. By the woman's clear, smooth, beautiful and tan complexion, she looks to be the age of twenty-five.
