Sitting with my daughter, rummaging through old photographs, I hear her suddenly start to laugh, saying “Mom what were you thinking?” I look over at the picture she held in her hand; it was my homecoming picture. This image was of me at the age of fifteen standing next to my date smiling as if we were the king and queen of the homecoming. Then I noticed why she laughed. It was neither the smile nor the dress, but it was the hair! Yes, I sported the “big hair” of the 80’s and my date equally followed suit. I am not sure whose hair was bigger mine or his. Smiling and remembering those days I told her that this was the fad at the time. Big hair in the 80’s required more volume and products to get results. The big hair fad was different in the 80’s than, say the beehive or bouffant style found in the 50’s and 60’s. Beehive and bouffant styles were delicate styles with smooth lines and structure or form. The 1980’s had a variety of styles to choose from. Ranging from big bangs, feathered/crimped hair, frizzy hair, spiked hair, mullets or Mohawks, colored and hair with perms, you never had a shortage …show more content…

Any products not on hand can simply be bought at your supermarket. No need to purchase anything expensive because you will go through so much of it. There is no need to waste money when it will all be washed out the next day only to start again. After that the tools necessary to create my look were needed. Curly irons, combs, brushes, glitter, color (if desired) and a blow dryer. Since I was a kid of the 80’s I definitely had these tools on
Everyone faces varying degrees of peer pressure at least once in their lifetime, but what matters is how one reacts. In Bad Haircut—a collection of short stories—the author, Tom Perrotta, examines the effect of peer pressure on the main character, Buddy, in a comical yet informative light. Buddy faces peer pressure consistently and ends up associating with the wrong people, due to a lack of backbone. Yet Buddy is different and a better person than those who he associates with because he is compassionate and able to recognize that he is a follower; therein lies the irony that only the reader sees Buddy’s merit while the other characters only see the results of his friends’ poor judgment.
After having studied the placebo effect for our last paper, I was greatly intrigued by its' importance in understanding health and implications for the connection of mind and body. As I acknowledged in my previous paper, the placebo effect is often documented in a scientific study, yet is considered to be something not completely understood and therefore deemed unreliable by the medical community. However, what I found from my research was that there does seem to be an inherent reliability and could thus be a cornerstone for the concept for mind-body healing.

Before being able to actually apply the make up, the first thing is to get your products and then skin ready for the process. Start off by taking out all of the basic make-up needed :concelor, foundation, powder, make-up sponge, lipstick, lip gloss, eyeliner (liquid or pencil), mascara, hair tie, as well as face wash and face moisturizer. After everything is laid out in front of you, start with washing your face with the face wash, then dry your face off and apply face moisturizer. Afterwards, take the hair tie and pull of you hair back ( if needed use hair clips to pull your bangs back), this will prevent the hair from getting in the way and will allow you to see your entire face when applying foundation and powder. Finally once the moisturizer is fully absorbed and your face is completely dry, you are ready to begin applying the make-up.

My cheeks begin to ache as I remember the smile so big on my face when the camera snapped. I thought my face would break in half if I tried to smile any wider. I was four years old and my hair was a lovely brunette with spears of pale blonde. The color every woman dreams of now. Shoulder length and bobbed I covered all my hair with a baseball hat, a smaller vesion of my father, we were going fishing.
