The fascinating history behind personal hair removal

The history of personal hair removal can be traced back to the caveman era. Prehistoric drawings show pictures of men without facial hair. At that time men removed hair using a sharp animal tooth or a flint axe. It was a tediously dangerous process, hence why not many men would bother with hair removal. In ancient Egypt most people removed hair from their entire bodies in order to avoid infestation by fleas, lice and other parasites. However, in modern society, hair removal became highly popular during the 20th century. The trend of hair removal was initiated with women and today even men are using various hair removal methods to remove unwanted body hair.

The ritual of personal hair removal was popularised through magazines and movies and soon spread among the rich and elite women. A hairless body was projected as a symbol of a well-groomed and sexually appealing body. Hair removal companies targeted the rich women as they knew that once the rich adapts to hair removal the middle classes would follow in suit. The strategy worked successfully. Today, women across the world practice personal hair removal to get rid of unwanted hair from various body parts such as the face (eyebrows, upper lips, chin, forehead and side burns), underarms, arms and legs, abdomen, back and chest. The practice of pubic hair removal has also become quite popular these days.

About hirsutism or excessive hair and its reasons

Hirsuitism or excessive hair is defined as a condition in which too much hair grows on the face or body. Though hirsuitism can occur in both men and women, it is considered to be a problem only by women since the modern day definition of feminine beauty includes smooth hairless skin. As against fine “baby” hair that some women have on their upper lip, chin, breasts or stomach women who have hirsutism develop dark, thick hair on their face, chest, abdomen and back. Please note that women of certain ethnic groups have more hair on their body. This does not mean they have hirsutism.

Some of the reasons for hirsuitism or excessive hair are –

- Abnormally high levels of male hormones (called androgens). Conditions that may lead to high levels of androgen include – polycystic ovary syndrome, Cushing’s disease, tumors in the ovaries or adrenal gland.

- Hirsutism can also be caused by hair follicles that are overly sensitive to male hormones.

- Certain medicines such as birth control pills, hormones and anabolic steroids may also cause hirsutism.

- Hirsutism also seems to run in families.

“ Hey, my names Lewis Carters you might of heard of me my nickname is the king of the aces. I’m a two time world heavy weight boxer but these days I am living the true American mans dream. I’m not a man who belongs to a ethnic group who believe the world is there oyster. In fact I’m just a normal guy in retirement spending my last days with my loved ones, my family. I don’t deserve every thing I got in fact I am very fortunate. My lives been a long Rollo caster ride been locked up in the nick for something I didn’t do. Then again I’ve been very extravagant in my life time doing things that an average guy would never do. I’ve pushed my limits so far that now I’m in a black hole wondering why, how, and where? I did all these things. Now me the toughest, and most hard-headed guy in sports world is fearing for what will be the consequence after every thing I do. The situations you would get passed easily like answering the door, and answering the phone and even receiving mail through the letter box gets me cautious. All this because I did bad things but for the right reason. Whenever I think about them its like by body shivers and I literally fill like I have hypothermia. It has been now 3 years since I retired from boxing and it has been 3 years since all these deep and disturbing devilish secrets have been bond aging in my mind. Now I’m going to reveal the truth to all my fans and all them reporters of what happened in my eyes. Its so hard to tell you the agonising story of pain, love, and hatred the reporter I told will tell you in my exact words”.
The build up 1999
The streets of New York were quiet, nothing was alive and nothing had motion. It was boxing day half seven in the evening most job workers of the big city were sleeping in their homes tired from all the fuss Christmas day had offered them. The mothers were satisfied with the joys which had been blessed on the families in this time of the year. Also the children who thought Santa existed were chuffed with there top of the range clothes and gifts which had been given to them on Christmas morning, however the family men were still recovering from all the debts that they owed to the manipulating bills and presents they could not afford. To make things worse they were also recovering from the hangovers which had been given to them from the brothers in laws and their obsession always to drink vodka on every celebration. It was a time of year they hated and despised however were hiding it to keep the children happy and keep safe from the desperate wifes bellowing down their ears. They were now looking forward to nothing except a financial disaster for the new year on the other hand they were still praying for one thing. That the conference in the morning for the big boxing fight between the 2 black American fighters Lewis Carters and James Husky went well and the fight was to go forward.
By now it was eight o clock, paparazzi were outside the queens park palace waiting for Lewis Carters to arrive at the conference. He would often do this to build suspense in the atmosphere and get all the people from his home town, Brooklyn, to cheer him on when he got there. James Husky was already in the building., he was Lewis Carters opponent and is the heavy weight champion. He has been fighting professional for 25 years and has been undefeated since he had the belt- he has had eight fights since he had had won the title and has either knocked his opponents out within the first two rounds or they have got so hurt in the fight from his deadly combinations of punches that the coaches and trainers have thrown in the towel. It was going to be the best fight since Muhammad Ali and Joe Frasier fought it out in the famous fight known commonly as the gorilla in manila. Husky was a fairly tall man with a muscular build, he had a very quick reacting mind in the ring, he was a powerful puncher and the unordinary thing about him is that he can fight either orthodox or southpaw stance in the ring. He was given the nickname James the power man Husky after knocking Fredson juniour out in the 2nd round with a lethal uppercut which knocked one of fredsons moulders out of his mouth blood was all over the ring and it was classed to be one of the most memorable fights in history. What made it unordinary was this was when he was in the cruiser weight and the power of the punch was the equivalent of Geroge Foremans awesome hooks.. James always stay focused on the aim of the fight which is to win and that integrity and spirit has won him most of his fights. A characteristic which made him stand outside the ring was that he was very crotchety this was also the case after his fights and in public. Whenever he was victorious over one of his fights he would always end up yelling at a bewildered reporter who he would end up either pushing onto the floor. Even though he was like this, it was what made him entertaining to watch and he is known to have one of the most amazing attitudes to live. In the conference room Husky was wearing an black swage suit with a black striped **** and blue aqua coloured tie, he was sitting in there patiently waiting for the conference to progress.
While James Husky was inside sitting on lined table on the right side of the room sipping his glass of squeezed lemon, loud chaotic noises were coming from outside. Outside was a large Grey gold plated 550 Ferrari Maranello. It had top of the rand platinum rims everyone in the neighbourhood could hear its engine roaring whilst pouncing foward , it was being blocked by a crowd and the car was unable to move forward so it pulled to the side of the curve and stopped. The passengers door was opened and Bobby Norton approached onto the road. Bobby Norton was Lewis Carters promoter and had been his promoter for years. He was experienced at what he did and was also a promoter of other great fighters like Ben Gills Olympic silver medallist in welter weight and also Benvollio Dulcet heavy weight champion from 1997 to 1998 however he was less popular when he was defeated by “James the power man Husky” in 1998. Norton was a very popular man also known for when he used to be a entrepreneur for many successful training businesses located all over the States and Europe however he gave all his businesses to his oldest son Thomas Norton mainly due to being so busy in his promoting work. On the other hand nobody really cared about his career professions just cared about him being a good looking multi millionaire mainly because of the many privatized companies that he owns. Which could be anything leisure companies, electronics or even a broad way drug racket for a mob living in little Italy but who knows nobody really tried to get on his bad side in public and in the media, due to the several people who have crossed him in their lives have received extra attention from his body guards which isn’t a pretty site.
Ferraris back seat couldn’t be seen through because of the tinted windows. Suddenly the doors opened and Jerry Carters came out of the back seat , Jerry was Lewis’s uncle and trainer. Five years he has been training Lewis to become the ultimate boxing fighter, Lewis used to be trained by his father ,Carl Carters, however he was killed whilst locking up the gym on a week night. He was stabbed retentively in
the back while locking the gyms front doors.
Even though Lewis lost his father at such a important part in his life their dream was to make Lewis become heavyweight champion by the time he reached his Forties. Lewis knew he was undefeated for five fights in a row when his father was killed. It somehow struck him in his mind that whoever killed his father wanted him dead to stop Lewis achieving his potential. He knew it and so did his uncle Jerry and they were determined to become the world most magnificent fighter in the states. Local media stations have been announcing the fight for weeks knowing it will be great, this fight is what Lewis has been waiting for with Forty wins and zero losses. Every time he trained in the gym his father was last seen, every time he goes for jogs he thinks he would never of got were he is if his father didn’t inspire him. So the least he could do I share the dream with his father in the after world to become undisputed heavy weight champion “ Carter the king of aces” he was given this name by his mother when he was only nine years of age because he was acing every completion he went to. The fight will be Huskys hardest challenge and it will be a incredible bout between the two but disputes have been argued saying Carter will knock Husky out in the first round because of his great speed, power and confident personality. Lewis climbed out of the car with a black suit on with a red shirt without a tie. The roaring was incredible all his fans were putting there hands out but he just walked forward not showing just a few respect he believed is you shake one mans hand ,you, should shake every ones. ‘Hearing a commotion outside, Husky stood up and strode to the window. Looking down onto the sidewalk, he caught a glance of his fight opponent entering the building. ‘Bastard,’ Husky thought to himself with a nasty smile as he ambled back to the brown leather chair, ‘Going to knock him out in one go.’
Menacingly Lewis walked through the brown, oak doors and walked through the lounge which had some newspapers photographers. Willingly to take pictures they snapped away but he ignored every flash . Walking into the main conference room. Shockingly he ran up towards Husky and got ready to throw a hook while Husky was sitting off guard. With quick reactions Husky moved out of the way pushing the chair over and causing a load sensational sound of cold leather touching the limestone floor.
“ Man I’m going to kill you in the ring, I’m not going to show no mercy sucker” fire was in Carters eyes when he shouted at Husky.
“got some nerve bringing your mans in here acting all big, you aren’t nothing to me ” Husky looked into Carters eyes and gave the same tormenting smile he did when he saw Carters cars coming.
“ Think you all big man, your two minutes late” Husky was known for his manipulating remarks towards other fighters. The two monsters tried to grab one each other into a glitch and fight each other in a slugger fight but repeatedly they were separated. Constantly they kept taunting each other.
The conference was one of the most disturbing in the whole of the boxing association but it did finish and the fight date was set. Both of them would fight on March 29th, at Maidson Square Garden. Many people were now looking forward to this epic fight, the two fighters were now fighting to keep their pride and determination to carry on their winning streaks.
The big fight
Exactly three long months had no gone by and both fighters had been training hard and keeping their fitness up especially. It was 26th March, with only three days left till the fight. The morning was bright and the newspaper prints were printing in the publication factories getting ready to distribute across New York. The front page had a bold heading written saying “ Carter v Husky, will Husky win like he says”.
“ I cant believe it, look what there all saying” Lewis had a copy of The New York times clutched into both of his hands. He was at home in Brooklyn, sitting in the garden. His house was more of a warehouse, he owned a 3.5 million dollar mansion with over 50.5 acres if land in his back garden. The Carter residence was the biggest in the whole of New York.
“ look at all these people look at what they say, there saying I am going to lose. What nerve do they have saying these things, well ill show them on Saturday night. It will be a fight they will never forget. So Jerry what do you recon?”. Thomas Norton his promoter was standing timidly in front of Lewis.
“Listen kid, you can say anything to the media. Stop saying things please?. You can say it politely or even threaten them guys. They aren’t going to listen these kinds of media attention get millions of views. Meaning more money for the editors. All you gotta do is prove them wrong by winning the title and bang the money they got comes in your favour”. Lewis gave a bovine look.
“ damn is dosh all you care about well guess what I want more. I want to prove them all wrong with my fists not with my money. For all I care you can keep my money I make on the night just get the media of my back”. At this point Lewis was ready to get in the ring and prove every one who doubted him was wrong, his behaviour was pugnacious and you could tell my the derivational facial expressions on his face.
“ ok, if that’s what you want then on the night of the fight. You gotta talk total rubbish about him at the official weight in . Im gonna knock Husky out in the first round, oh im going to bury him alive, or even look at his face cause your not gonna see one like that again when im finished. that’s the things you say then in the actual fight you stay by you words and throw the jabs, the hooks the combos and win the fight with points torture him and that’s it you got the fans on your side”. Lewis showed a discourteous manner and was looking at the picture of Husky in the paper.
“ I’m not going to talk rubbish about him in the weight in, I’m going to knock him out their and then”. The both of them started laughing with humour. They opened a bottle of fine Jamaican rum and sipped their drink whilst talking about how to deal with any promoters and any reporters. They spoke about how to speak on TV, news etc without letting out to much information about future decisions they were going to make.
Both Carters and Husky were under pressure due to the fact their reputation was on the line. Who ever game out on top would become one of the greatest legends in history of boxing and would join the great warriors such as Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, Sugar Ray Lenard and Iron Mike Tyson in his prime. They were training hard in there home towns downtown Brooklyn and Philadelphia. With only three days left the trainers of the two were theorising what their tactics would be in and out of the ring. Tension was building up to the battle and patience was a problem. The two of them would often collide with one an other in talk shows and new broadcasting shows.
Lewis walked into his mansion on the way from a conference meeting one day with his promoter and trainer Jerry. The conference was held by the boxing committee warning both fighters if any more dangerous stunts of fighting on media or in public was to happen ,Husky would be stripped off his title, and Carters would not get a title shot until 2001. Exhausted and tired from the conference holder Jimmy Scott going on and on Lewis loosened his tie and top button, it was 10 pm. He walked into his bedroom and dropped onto the bed and closed his eyes trying to close the outside world.
“Hey baby” Tina Carter, walked into the room jumping onto the bed to welcome Lewis home with a big kiss on his forehead. He opened his eyes and gave a cheerful smile and both of them exchanged looks with one an other.
“ so how was the conference honey did it go well, what did they want to talk to you about?” .
“ yes, it was fine oh just the usual do this and do that nothing important” His wife was the only person who kept him going in his job, she was his only inspiration . They were married and had been for nearly 5 years and they loved each other with all there hearts could express. She was a tall black women with long metallic black hair. Her skin looked soft and her body smelled like olive herbs with a golden twist. Lewis treated her as if she was a princess and gave her anything she wanted new clothes, jewellery, gold silver he would even by her a pony if she asked. She was always supporting Lewis in his fights and anything else he did .
“ listen, ive been married to you for 3 years now and I know when your happy and when your down. Now your down. So don’t lie to me, something happened at the meeting and I want to know now” she demanded to know what happened aggressively but she still had the beautiful smile on her face when she came into the bedroom. Lewis took a deep breath and replied
“ sorry babe I didn’t mean to lie to you, ok ill tell you what happened at the meeting. They warned us both to stop causing trouble and threatened to destroy our careers and that’s it promise” it was hard for him to tell that to his wife and thinking she would shout at him dowen his ears he closed his eyes and encrusted them with his eye lids.
“ Husky was there as well, the stupid tramp. Baby why didn’t you tell me this I would of understood.”. he opened his eyes and she still had the beautiful golden smile on her face however she lifted at her eyebrows expecting a reply.
“listen I didn’t want to tell you because I don’t want you to worry and most importantly I didn’t want that lovely smile to go away cause that’s what gets me up in the morning to train., that’s what helps me get through my fights and the last thing I would want to do is stop that”. she started to get an even bigger gorgeous smile on her face and gave him a big hug.
“ Im never going to stop caring, treasuring and especially loving you so you can tell me anything in reason and I will think of it to be an honest and true action you have done”
The both of them closed their eyes and fell into a deep warm sleep preparing for the busy day they would have to face tomorrow.


i think its cool that you’re being creative and writing a story bout boxing, thats tight
but honestly i didnt read the whole thing because its very hard to read without punctuation marks.
also you have some very basic spelling errors such as you wrote “lives” instead of “life’s”.
if you’re gonna turn it in its important to pay attention to small details like that.
anyway its a good start, but i think if you want people’s feedback i would suggest posting smaller amounts and including punctuation :)

Should You Relax or Perm?

Not everyone is blessed with hair that falls perfectly into place. Some need to coach their hair a little to get the look they want and others fight a never-winning battle when it comes to taming their tresses. In order to help in this battle, many turn to chemical relaxers and perms to make their job easier. Should you?

The first thing to remember when choosing to perm or relax your hair is that chemical processes can cause damage to your hair. This is important because choosing the wrong procedure at the wrong time can leave you with a mess that’s harder to deal with than what you currently have. So, before you decide to perm or relax, make sure your hair is in the condition to handle it.

Another thing you should think about is all of the state-of-the-art ceramic thermal flat irons and curling irons that are on the market. If you can achieve your look with one of these, you might be able to pass on the chemical process. And with the new ionic technology available, even the kinkiest hair can be sleek and shiny.

So, when should you relax or perm? Follow these guidelines:

· If your hair is stubbornly kinky curly or coarse and straight, getting a relaxer or perm can make your hair more manageable. A relaxer will change the texture of your hair and make it easier to work with. A perm will help break down your hair so that it is easier to curl and style.

· If your hair is fine and limp and there is not much of it, a perm can give you much-needed body. Wearing a perm will make your hair appear thicker and fuller than it does straight.

· If you have ethnic hair, it is almost always a good idea to relax. Extremely curly black hair can be a hassle to deal with. It gets tangled easily and is impossible to comb. It also never gets longer, just bushier which limits your hairstyles dramatically. By getting a chemical relaxer, you can get length and manageability in one easy process.

· If you like the look of a perm and don’t color your hair, you should get a perm. If you do color your hair often, perhaps you should try out some different thermal curling tools to minimize the damage done to your mane.

The bottom line is this: choose a chemical process when it is in the best interest of your hair’s health. If the process would cause more damage than do good, maybe you should wait.

African American Hairstyles

<img src="http://www.buzzle.com/img/articleImages/3478-9.jpg" width="350" height="275" alt="African American Hairstyles" class="ImgBorder"

The African American culture has now become a significant part of the American culture. One can see that they have retained their identity as well. This culture that is seen in the United States actually refers to all the specific contributions of the African ethnic groups to the culture of the United States. This culture has maintained its own distinctive appeal yet at the same time has found a major influence over the American culture as well in terms of dressing, music and even hairstyles! The African American hairstyles are one of the distinctive factors of this culture and something that has held my fascination for years! Think African American hairstyles and images of tight-coiled curls, Afro hairstyles, hair braids and dreadlocks come to one’s mind. Today, the women who belong to the African American culture are known to straighten their hair to try out different looks. If you have a fascination for African American hairstyles and want to know more about the different hairdos they sport, check out some of the African American hairstyles that are mentioned below.

Different types of African American Hairstyles:
The kind of varied hairstyles that the African American culture is known for also exists because of the structure or the texture of the African American hair. This greatly varies from other hair textures. Therefore, most of the African American hairstyles make use of natural styles. Although today, one can see these trends are changing due to the different kind of hair products that are being used to create new looks.

Afro Hairstyles:
An Afro hairstyle is one where the hair are seen clouding around the head in the form of a halo. People who belong to the African American culture have naturally thick and curly hair and therefore anybody can try out these Afro curls. Extra volume is added to the hair with various methods.

Hair Braids:
Hair braiding is a common and a very popular African American hairstyle. Here, sections of the hair are plaited together and are worn by young children and adults as well. This kind of hair braiding is considered to be an art. Today, hair stylists that can style the perfect micro braids or even cornrows are very much in demand all over the world. Hair braiding requires a lot of time and patience as far as the wearer and even the stylist is concerned! Braids consist of various styles such as the micro braids, cornrows, box braids etc. Hair braids are sported by many who wish to achieve this hip and cool look.

Read in detail all about African American hair braiding styles

Tight Ponytails:
The African American hairstyles always make a mark because of the tight curls. These curls are often styled differently to create various hairstyles. Curly hair is often styled into ponytails. Crimped hair are also very common and are tied up into ponytails or even left loose. In this case, the hair is parted into equal sections and each section is braided completely and secured with a band. Then, all the braids are pulled towards the back of the head and the head is wrapped in a satin scarf. This is generally left overnight. When the braids are undone the next day, the hair achieves a crimped look and looks fantastic when pulled into a ponytail.

Dreadlocks:
Think dreadlocks and Bob Marley springs up to my mind. Dreadlocks have significant stories linked to them and have different meaning for various people. Dreadlocks are actually coils of hair that are interlocked and these can also form on their own; this would depend largely on the hair texture as well. Generally, dreadlocks form when the hair is grown naturally without the use of any kind of brush or comb. Dreadlocks rose in popularity with reggae music reaching new heights. There are many beauty salons that offer you natural ways to style dreadlocks (by attaching false hair) where as there are few that use chemical processes to achieve the same.

Read in detail all you need to know about dreadlocks

The Jheri Curl:
Amongst all the African American hairstyles, the Jheri curl was also very popular amongst the African American people. The name Jheri has been given because the creator of this hairstyle was named Jheri Redding. This look was all about sporting a glossy look with loads of curls. There were certain chemical processes used to achieve this style, which may perhaps be the reason why this hairstyle ultimately disappeared from the scene.

No matter whether or not whether your favorite black hair style is braided, curly, locks, sleek and straight, short and funky or twisted and intricate, there are a few things that you should consider before deciding on what black hair style to choose for your next do.

Due to the versatility of the black hair style and black hair in general, ethnic hair styles include some of the most intricate and beautiful hair creations to be found among fashion-conscious people today. While many compete to make their black hair style more elaborate and beautiful than the next, many fail to observe basic hair styling fundamentals, which are vital to ensure that a black hair style compliments the wearer rather than detracts from his or her personal beauty.

Black hair style fundamentals

When choosing the right black hair style for you, it is important to pay special attention to your facial features and bone structure. The right black hair style can take the most beautiful facial features you have and make them absolutely stunning. The wrong black hair style, on the other hand, can completely mask those features and may even highlight features you would rather hide.

When choosing the perfect black hair style for your unique look, stylists should take into account your build. For example, close cropped black hair styles would not suit a person with a large frame, nor would a full-bodied black hair style compliment a person with a small frame. Making sure that your style and frame balance is the key here.

Stylists also should look at your face shape when choosing the best black hair style for you. There are five basic face shapes: oval, heart, round, square and triangular. All of these shapes can be beautiful, but one is ideal: oval. No matter what shaped face you have, achieving the perfect look involves picking the right black hair style that will make your face appear more oval.

Oval face shapes are identified by the perfect symmetry of certain facial features, such as the distance from the hairline to the bridge of the nose (between the eyes), from the bridge of the nose to the lips, and from the lips to the bottom of the chin. If your face is oval shaped, you will have a host of options when it comes to choosing your black hair style. This shape is the only one that is complimented by almost every black hair style imaginable. The oval shape is perfect for corn rows, braids and all other popular black hair styles.

Heart shaped faces are usually broader through the forehead and taper to a point at the chin. You can make this shaped face appear more oval by positioning the weight of the black hair style at chin level, or by wearing bangs in shorter black hair styles. Keep in mind that the goal is to minimize the forehead and to bring prominence to the chin.

Round faces are just that: round. They have wide cheekbones and are usually smaller through the forehead and chin. The goal here is to minimize the cheekbones. Black hair styles with height in the bang and sides cut toward the face usually work best.

Square faces have a bold forehead and an angular jaw line. Black hair styles with soft edges, and a great deal of texture directed toward the face really suit this shape. The length should be kept longer than jaw length to draw attention away from the jaw, but, at the same time, that length should be layered. A straight, sleek black hair style would only serve to accent the angular lines of the face.

Triangular shaped faces are angular at the jaw line, but narrow through the forehead. They can be treated much the same way that square faces are treated, with one exception; more height and fullness is needed throughout the crown and bang areas of the black hair style to make this section of the face appear larger.

Now that you know what types of black hair styles to choose to make you look your best, the only limits are your imagination and your stylist’s creativity.
