A Fresh Start

fresh-start

Have you ever had a day or a week filled with chaos? Every step you make seems to be met by challenge after challenge? All you can think of is, “I just want to wake up and have a fresh startbe able to see clearly and move forward uninhibited toward the goals and blessings that are waiting for me just ahead?”

Don’t worry you are not alone! I found a prayer in the Psalms (Psalm 51:7-15) that King David wrote when he was in chaos and needed a fresh start to lift him up so he could see above the circumstances and chaos in his life. This prayer gave David hope for the future.

Today, take a moment to read and meditate on these verses. As you begin to allow these words to sink into your soul you will see that God is a faithful God who loves you. As you begin to trust in Him, and not lean on your own strength and understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6), He will begin to reveal His faithfulness to you by calming the chaos in your life and working all things together for the good. This will in turn give you the fresh start that you need!

Allow these words to strengthen you and then share them with someone else who needs a fresh start.

Your Brain on Breakfast

healthy-breakfast-honey1Dr. Casen, from the Drugless Doctor sent us this post that I think is very important on the benefits of eating a healthy breakfast on your health, and your energy levels! 

A recent study that used brain scans to investigate breakfast’s effect on eating later in the day was presented at the Neuroscience 2012 conference.  Subjects who SKIPPED breakfast were more attracted to images of high-calorie grub and consumed 20% MORE calories at lunch than those who ate breakfast. (womenshealthmag.com/March2013)

Takeaways from Dr. Casen-

1) Breakfast is the most important meal of the day (We learned this in grade school everyone!)

2)  Start your day off with protein, this will help you to sustain your energy throughout the day and not spike your insulin levels.  Doughnuts, pop tarts, and Lucky Charms may look attractive but your body and brain will suffer from those choices.

3)  Proper planning is key!  Make sure your fridge is stocked with healthy organic foods to prepare for you and your family.

4)  Become label savvy.  On average, women and men who read nutrition labels weigh NINE pounds less than those who don’t.

Thank you Dr. Casen for these important tips! There are so many reason to start your off with at least a healthy snack, even if it’s just for that small energy boost! Check out my Pinterest board full of great, healthy snack ideas here!

“I felt like I was going bald…”

Barb

That’s how Barb felt when she started experiencing the beginning stages of her age-related hair loss. After a personal consultation, at Jeffrey Paul Salon, we determined Micro Point Links were the right solution for Barb.

The Micro Point Link process links a single strand of natural growing hair with four new strands of hair, instantly increasing the hair’s density by 400 percent. The process can be repeated hundreds of times giving those who qualify thousands of new strands of hair with no damage or stress to their natural hair. The process doesn’t require chemicals, transplants, or any other type of hair system.

6 Secrets to Weight-loss Without Dieting

Healthy lifestyle
It’s important that we take care of our bodies as well as our minds. My friend, and our favorite health and wellness expert, Marisa Dicenso-Pelser, has provided six secrets to losing (and maintaining) a healthy weight in a healthy way.

Secret #1: Keep Moving
Keep your activity level high everyday. Workouts should consist of both cardiovascular training and strength training. Out of the gym, make an effort to move as much as possible!

Secret #2: Be a Healthy Eater
You are what you eat. Skip the drive thru and be sure to keep calories low, maintain portion control, and eat fresh foods.

Secret #3: Turn off the TV
The average person watches a whopping 35 hours of television each week, while people who successfully maintain their weight loss watch an average of 7 hours or less.

Secret #4: Keep it Simple
Create a repertoire of basic whole foods: fruits, vegetables, lean protein, whole grains, beans and nuts. Cutting down on your options makes it easier to stick to your plan, making weight loss guaranteed.

5 Causes of Premature and Excessive Hair Loss in a Hair System

5 Causes of Premature Hair Loss

There’s no exact timeline as to how long a hair system will last. It varies on the way you wear and take care of your hair. A hair system will need to be replaced as the hair begins to come lose or thin in the hair system. While a few shedding hairs left on the base of a hair system is expected from the original hand tying process, there are five actions that can cause excessive hair loss, after the delivery of your system, and greatly decrease the life of your hair system.

Hair Extensions – Kristen’s Hair Loss Solution

“This is amazing! This is a new me. I think my hair is better than it was years ago.” – Kristen

Kristen used to not worry about hair loss. She had hair that was thick and full, and it always looked good. A few years ago, her hair began to fall out. Kristen noticed piles of hair each morning while getting ready. There were a few reasons she could think of that could be contributing factors to her hair’s condition.

Going from early stage to intermediate stage of female hair thinning, loss and breakage, she decided to seek help from the Jeffrey Paul Salon team.

What to Take Out of Your Purse

If given the choice between healthy or unhealthy hair, you would always choose healthy; yet, you may not realize that some of the products that you regularly carry in your purse are damaging your hair.

Is there alcohol in your purse? Before you think, “no way!” you could be mistaken. Go ahead and take a look in your purse. What do you see? Women carry all sorts of items in their purses. You never know what the day may bring! Alcohol is found in perfume, styling aids and other hair products. Perfume contains a lot of alcohol, which is very drying and over time, will open the cuticle layer, increasing the chances of tangling.

Are You In The 90%?

“Jeffrey, my hair seems damaged and just does not look the way I want it to, do you think i have damaged hair?” -Ashley

This is a question I hear from my guests or people I meet, who find out that I speacialize in hair! Most people don’t realize how easy it can be to damage hair. Did you know that 9 out of every 10 customers who come in have some form of damaged hair and desperately need to restore their hair with protein? Hair could be damaged from a multitude of things – such as being curled, blow-dried, flat-ironed, color treated and more.

A protein treatment helps repair split ends, it increases the hair’s body, makes hair more manageable, increases hair’s shine, and protects hair against further damage.

With any product, it can be tricky to know the correct amount to use. Everyone’s hair is unique – from length to texture! To be sure you’re not overusing your protein treatment product (and costing yourself more money), use these tips! 

Stylist or TEAM-Based Salon?

JP 6.16 Pic

Have you ever thought about the idea of a “team” when looking for a salon or stylist? Whether it is for beauty services or hair loss services, most women today find one stylist and become so comfortable with that stylist that you may not even realize what you may be missing out on from a salon with a team-based culture.

A salon with a team-based culture is made up of individuals who work together with one goal in mind- YOU! Communication is key to a team-based culture. That team makes notes after each appointment about changes to your color formulas or cut, your specific likes or dislikes. This is important so that at any given time any member of the styling team could do your services and you still have the confidence that they will deliver with the same excellence as your preferred stylist.

Here are four benefits that a salon with a team-based culture could add to your experience:

Transform Your Man… and Yourself

SuperMan

Drab to fab in a few seconds? That’s right! Ladies, it’s time to transform your man (and yourself!). I will let you in on this marvelous tip that works wonders.

Transforming paste will assist both you and your husband in obtaining looks you want. This valuable styling product is powerful because it combines the flexibility of a wax with the hold of a hairspray! Not only does it act as a texturizing tool, but it also provides long-lasting style retention while maintaining strand flexibility. Plus, it is water-soluble, so it won’t create damaging buildup on your hair. So, how do you go about transforming your man? Simple – follow these steps! 

How to Wear Your Hair Up For Summer!

knotties

Summer is hot, trust me I know! Having your hair cling to your face is not the most pleasant feeling during this time, but it can also be a struggle. Keeping your hair off of your face is something we should all be able to accomplish and, with looks such as low ponytails, braids and chignons, you can keep it out of the way. These summer hair trends are quick and easy ways to keep your hair looking its best.

One, amazing way to incorporate these looks (and a great alternative to hair damaging scrunchies, rubber bands and hair ties) is by using my personal favorite version of a hair tie: Knotties & Headband Knotties

Look and Feel Your Best During the Summer Months

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWc7DrqyM7U&t

You deserve to feel like the best version of yourself, today and everyday. Prior to figuring out a solution to your individual hair loss, women can have a hard time feeling confident or beautiful. Every woman wants to feel attractive for herself and for her husband, just like Allison.

Initially, Allison wanted to avoid certain situations and people because of her hair loss. Since activities are endless during the summer with pool parties, sporting events and family grill-out get-togethers, it’s important to rediscover your self-assurance and to feel pretty inside and out. What are you waiting for? Show yourself, and your husband, that you know just how special you are! Don’t let the the weather stop you from feeling great.
