How to get the best looking hair style

Argan oil is a tree based oil that is cold pressed from the Argan tree. Argan trees are mostly native to Morocco and have been used by the people of that region – Berber – for centuries due to its healing and rejuvenation properties.

In the past 5 years, the popularity of argan oil has exploded as more and more people in the western countries find out about the properties and benefits of this liquid gold.

One area of application that has particularly gained a lot of momentum is the hair. Argan oil on hair can provide a rich and luxurious shine. But besides the cosmetic difference that is visible right away, argan oil also increases the health of the hair by providing it much needed nourishment and nutrients. Argan oil is very versatile and can be used in variety of ways on your hair.

My favorite way of using it is the lengthy deep conditioning treatments, after shower application and managing dry hair by massaging it every few days. Also I have noticed that if you have split ends, just application a few drop to the hair ends can work wonders and give you results very fast.

Deep conditioning is also very popular in saloons and spas and is much appreciated by those who have tried it. It can help in restoring long last health of the hair to dry and damaged hair.

Here is exactly how I like to perform the deep conditioning on my hair. I create a thorough, deep conditioning treatment by working the oil through out my hair. How much hair you would need is based on your own personal needs. Short hair will of course need less and the longer your hair the more oil you would need. The best part if of course the massage on the scalp. It puts me to sleep right away :) Also say good by to itchy and dry skin on your scalp.

After the deep conditioning you have couple of choices. If your hair is short and manageable without any accessory, you can leave them be. But if you have long hair like me, I like to either wrap them in a towel and sit down with a drink next to the pool…aah thats a different story. Or I put them in a braid and go about my daily business at home.

Just make sure that if you would be coming in contact with other things, then its best to wrap a towel around your head as you dont want things sticking in your hair. Also, if you decide to leave the oil on for the night, cover the bed and pillow so stains do not get into the sheet.

If you are short on time and want a quick service, application after shower is the best way to go. The hair is already damp so you dont need much oil. Just put a few drops, massage into the pam of your hair to warm it up and then rub it on problem areas on your hair.

Arzoyi argan oil is fast absorbing, USDA organic argan oil does not have a strong aroma, and it dissipates on application. I would recommend this oil as not only it is safe but most effective as well.

Ketamine Effects On Amy Winehouse Body

Ketamine is a popular drug these days. Death of Amy Winehouse did not help add more interest to it. So for those of you wondering what exactly Ketamine is and how it effects human (read Amy Winehouse) body you have come to the right place.

Ketamine is popularly used in/by humans as well as animals. Its salt, more precisely hydrochloric salt, is typically sold in various forms like Ketanest, Ketalar etc. Pharmacy board classifies Ketamine as a NMDA receptor antagonist. Sounds dangerous, doesn’t it?

In simpler terms, Ketamine as a calming effect on the human body just like a anesthetic. Hence those who can afford it, celebrities like Amy Winehouse, use it for recreational purposes.

Here is an interesting tidbit. Ketamine is consider a very basic medicine in the World Health Organization’s “Essential Drugs List”. Which means if you want to set up a hospital, Ketamine would be in your must-have list.

Chelsea Clinton Wedding Pictures

Chelsea Clinton Wedding

The web is currently going crazy for Chelsea Clinton wedding and dress photos. We don’t blame the people for this search. It is human curiosity to see what the stars wear, what their taste is like and whom they favor.

Good news is I have been able to get my hands on some of Chelsea Clinton Wedding Pictures which also show her wedding gown and her pre wedding dress.

I believe her dress was personally designed by the famous designer Vera Wang who also happens to be a very close family friend. Vera Wang was also invited to the wedding and was spotted in Rhineback during this weekend.

Chelsea Clinton has come a long way since the days her dad used to occupy the White House. Chelsea has blossomed from an ugly duckling to quite a stunner that she is now. (Of course there are rumors doing the round that she got plastic surgery done).

Do write in the comments whether you like Chelsea Clinton’s wedding dress.

A Jersey Shore Snooki Arrest: Could it be for Ratings?

Jersey Shore’s Snooki got arrested in New Jersey, and was charged with disorderly conduct.  Snooki’s arrest has sparked a good deal of debate over whether or not the whole thing was a publicity stunt, or if this was really something that just happened on a whim.  The Jersey Shore cast is now back in our homes, as the second season of the show premiered last week. So one can’t help but wonder…was Snooki’s arrest for ratings?

Snooki’s ex told Radar Online that it’s Snooki’s dream to be on Celebrity Rehab. He claims she will drink and drink and drink until she drops. Perhaps the arrest was also a way to spark VH1’s show producers interest in this ‘celebrity’ case.

WHAT DOES GTL MEAN? GET YOUR JERSEY SHORE TRANSLATION HERE.

There’s also a new face on the Jersey Shore cast, and Snooki could have a bit of jealousy.  Maybe she got arrested as a plot to stay the most popular guidette on the show?  What do you think?

Her husband, actor/writer Hayes MacArthur, and the star are both very excited for their pending new addition.  They were married last August in New England and had been dating since 2002.  The couple didn’t waste any time! So far, the gender of the child has not been announced.

Larter will be featured later this year in a new Resident Evil film.

This is a big week in pregnancy announcements as Christina Applegate is also pregnant!

Eminem Recovery: Album 1 on Billboard Top 200 for Fourth Consecutive Week

Eminem’s Recovery album is still at the #1 slot on the Billboard chart. Marshall Mathers, the angst-filled rapper from Detroit, Michigan continues his success with his latest album.  Eminem has had huge success with his latest release, which is still at the top of the charts four weeks after it debuted.

Perhaps the most popular track on the rapper’s new record is the song “Love the Way You Lie” which features R&B artist Rihanna.  The mix of the two artists vocals are a very unique blend that make the song one that you find yourself listening to over and over again. According to Billboard News, the song has sold 352,000 digital downloads, up 12% from its previous total. It is the #1 digital download.

On Wednesday, Rihanna had her very first headlining show at the Staples Center.  The guests were pleasantly shocked when she started singing the hook to the #1 song, “Love the Way you Lie” and then out of nowhere Eminem came out on stage and started singing his part of the song. This hit was great for both artist’s careers.

The rapper has had a tumultuous past, which was chronicled in the film “8 Mile.”  The movie, featuring his good friend and late actress Brittany Murphy, was a hit that is still popular whenever it is aired on networks like VH1, MTV, and BET.

Despite the album’s success, it is expected to be de-throned when Rick Ross releases his new album, Teflon Don.

Black Couple: White Baby, Amazing Birth (PHOTO)

A black couple has given birth to a white baby. Before getting too much into the details, it is worthwhile to note that the baby is not albino. This is a case where a dark-skinned African couple living in London has given birth to what appears to be a Caucasian baby.

The couple doesn’t have history of mixed races in either of their heritage.  This is truly a very rare event that left the baby’s father even joking about whether or not the fair skinned child is his.  He then told the world he was joking; he knows that the baby is his because his wife is “trustworthy.”

The baby’s name is Nmachi, and she was born to Nigerians Ben and Angela Ihegboro. There are three possibilities as to why the strange event could have occurred:

The baby could be albino. Although preliminary tests rule this out, it’s been noted that doctors have not confirmed that she is not albino.

Dormant Caucasian DNA: somewhere down the line there could have been a mixed race couple long forgotten. This could cause the baby to have light skin.

A genetic mutation: Sci-Fi followers may be curious to realize that there’s a possibility that this child has a gene mutation never seen before.

The black couple, white baby birth will go down as one of the most interesting scientific stories of the year.  Although white couples have given birth to darker skinned babies, it’s very rare for two extremely dark skinned individuals to give birth to someone with blond hair and blue eyes.
