April 27th, 2009 admin Tips 0

Long HairstyleHollywood star Orlando Bloom came into the spot light early in this by his new long hair style. He was spotted at the back stage of shooting a film named “Delicious”. He also showed off with his sexy long hair on the movie The Pirates of the Carrabin. Now, I don’t know about you guys but I sure want to have those kinda long hair. It’s not that I like him very much; he is cool. But the main thing is I like his hair style and I’m also hopping that this kind of hair style will attract girls.
Ok, now let’s get to the business. Lots of men are still likes the long hair but the problem with the long hair is it needs more care then the short hair as they are easy to maintain. So, as it turns out that you need some extra care for long hair and now I am going to try to help you with it.

Types of long hair
Long hair does not mean that you just let your hair grow as it self. Remember that it’s all about style and fashion. You should be familiarized with the types of long hair that men follow. Because there are not as many long men’s styles are there are women’s, there are still a number to choose from, including:

Ponytail
Ponytail is simple and it is also easy to care for and easy to style in a short period of time.

Braid
A single and simple bride can be attractive and it also easy to maintain then ponytail.

Dreadlock
Dreadlocks can be a fashion statement and a way to style long hair, mostly if it is thick or curly.

Afro
Most of the Afro-American chose natural afro for their long hair.

Loose
This style is for the people who have long hair that just falls below the shoulder and it may not need any style.

Mullet
Mullet has short hair in the front and top of your head and longer in the back. It is possible to make a ponytail at the back.

Remedies to fight hair fall
To keep long hair, you will have to fight hair fall. Here are some simple and easy remedies for hair fall. First thing you should avoid is washing hair with hot water. Use warm water. Do not wash your hair daily, wash it 2 to 3 times with shampoo and conditioners. Avoid any kind of style that requires back you to back comb your hair as this leads to hair breakage. Also, do not brush or comb your hair frequently. Keep it tied up in a pony tail or bun if you are suffering from hair fall. Also get a hot oil massage every week. Use Aloe Vera gel and massage it onto your scalp and leave it for 30 min. this will help to lock in moisture in your hair and prevents hair fall. If you have a thinning hair line then massage a piece of an onion into your scalp till your skin begins to turn red, then apply honey on the area and wash it off after an hour. You can also try some of the herbal products. Like you can mix a few spoons of olive oil with cinnamon powder and honey and massage it onto your skin for a few minutes and keep it for a few hours. Wash it of with arm water and shampoo and rinse as you normally would.

Routine for good hair care
To receive a good result for the hair you need to maintain some routines,

Shampoo
Try to choose nice, smoothing aromatic shampoo that suits you. However, the flavor is not important as long as the shampoo is ph balanced to ensure clean and healthy hair. Remember that, shampooing daily with the rinse and repeat instructions is not a ploy to sell more products. The first shampoo prepares the scalp to be comprehensively cleaned by loosening up all the “cool” products that make hair look and feel great, you know what I mean, and the second shampoo gets the job done.

Tones
Gently massage your scalp like the way you shampoo. Use the balls of your fingertips in a “spider doing push-ups” fashion. This is an often skipped part of everyone’s hair care routine. From now on, don’t miss it. There’s no special way to massage, although, try to avoid a circular pattern on long hair. Most of the oil is near the scalp. If no conditioner is to follow, gently towel dry the hair by squeezing to avoid tangles.

Conditioner
It moisturizes your hair. Conditioner is an essential hair product if your hair is dry. An herbal rinse is better for those with oily hair.

So, try out these tips and let’s see what turns out. Maybe you won’t be like Orlando Bloom but it won’t be that bad. If your girlfriend likes long hair then she will love your healthy hair and you will get some extra attention from her.

Fashion in Tie

April 15th, 2009 admin Fashion Thinking, Tips 0

tieA person’s tie shows his personality, his place in life and his personal intelligence of fashion. It provides you a real shiny and professional look. Thousands of organizations and companies include tie as a must put on in their uniform code.

It is a fine art to match a tie properly by the others dresses. Here is a simple idea for wearing a perfect tie according to an occasion.

Match your suit: When wearing a tie, consider the color of your trousers, jacket etc. It must need to match the tie completely with your shirt or coat and trouser styles.  Patterns and textures of dresses should be suited with your tie.

Colors and patterns: When it comes to selecting the color of the tie, there are lots of methods you can make so. Prefer a tie that is classic and not off-putting. A solid colored traditional tie is a fine idea for all time. If you are putting on a light-color shirt, you can be dressed in a tie in a dark shade of that similar color. If the shirt is light blue, you can decide almost every color of tie as this is the most flexible color for work. Always remember that ties with pictures or cartoons are always looking odd for all occasions.

Length and shape: Usually, the correct width of a tie is something like 3 1/4 inches, and everything in that range is perfect with any suit. The length of standard tie is likely to be from between 52 to 58 inches long, depending on styles.

Consider the event: The colors of solids and brick tone are suitable for the corporate environment. Plain and bold patterns with pin or oblique stripes are also looks great for the corporate meeting or office. Sometime dots look good in tie but it should be avoided when too many are visible in it but slight dots in solid colors shows a class. Usually flowery patterns or fuchsia dyed ties aren’t the ideal fit for a corporate board meeting.

Men’s Food Level Manner

April 9th, 2009 admin Mens Health 0

As we know the food is essential for each and every one of us. We should also keep in mind that the food habit should be little different between man and women. The woman strictly maintains the slim and sexy body, where the man also should look out for the both strong and energetic body.

So, let’s find out what kind of nutrition level man should follow,

Low fat
It is by the law, the foods which are labeled as “low fat” must contain 3g fat or less per 100g or 1.5g or less per 100ml. The food which can be named as “fat free” if they have less than 0.5g fat per 100g. However, these can be very high in sugar.

The Ingredients list
Ingredients are listed in organized by weight, so whichever ingredient there is most of appears first on the list and whichever had least is the last. All additives and flavorings also must be listed.

Organic products
At lest 95% of organic ingredients should be contain in each and every organic products. And the organic ingredient must not be produced using unapproved artificial chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

Sugar
You should take foods that contain more than 15g sugar per 100g to a minimum, unless they occur naturally from fruit or milk.

Unseen sugar
Sugar can be hidden in food under many pretenses. So, don’t just check for sugar. Also look out for words such as sucrose, glucose, fructose, maltose, hydrolysed starch and invert sugar, corn syrup and honey, all of which contain high levels of sugar.

Artificial sweetness
Although there has been some disagreement over these in the past, all sweeteners must now be approved by the European Commission (EC) and listed in the ingredients list.

Salt
The food which contains more than 1.5g salt per 100g or 0.6g sodium is considered high in salt. Eating too much salt can increase your blood pressure which cans later increase the chance of heart disease and stroke. That’s why the experts suggest that, adults should not have less than 6g of salt a day.

Men’s Blazer

April 2nd, 2009 admin Fashion Thinking 0

Two Button BlazerPreviously we have talked about men’s different types of jackets. Now we’ll discuss about the Blazers. As I mentioned in one my previous article that, we all make the common mistake between Blazers and Jackets and now it will be much clear as we talk about the Blazers.

Looking back in the history, in 1938 blazers was the fashionable odd jacket of choice for style specialists. Originally a part of the English cricket club outlook, the blazer was often striped and in club colors. This look eventually changed to include brass buttons, single and double-breasted models, and a club badge on the breast pocket. Blazers are presented with variety of styles with different detail options, thing like flap or patch pockets and peak or notch lapels. Depending on your choice, taste and what kind of pants you put on; blazers are easy to dress down then sports jackets.

Now let’s move on from history and explore in the different kinds of blazers,

Nautical Blazers
The Nautical blazers are generally navy-colored decorated with brass buttons were predominant throughout the 1920s. They create a stylish sports outfit when paired with white pants. As these types of blazers contain lightweight fabric, the Nautical Blazers were summer fashion sensation.

Now, the big thanks should be given to the British fashion wave by the Americans because South Americans finds the traditional nautical blazer still looks trendy in the late spring or early summer.

Colored Blazers
The Blazers are mainly named because they were “blazed” with more color and bolder patterns than the refined sport jacket. As we see, the Blazers weren’t only striped these days, but they also comes in a variety of bright colors, like powder blue and purple, and started making their way into men’s weekend-wear wardrobes.

Lather Blazers
It’s the latest fashion. The lather jackets are no longer the fashion of eighties as they retuned in the fashion scene, and other than making for a cool style statement they also keep us warm and comfortable during those cold winter nights. So, the lather blazers pretty much took the place right beside the lather jackets. There are different styles of men’s leather blazer for those who have worked in the navy, army and the police force. However, the lather blazers are the most fashionable trend and with a pair of denim or even jeans, the spot light is on you.

Since the blazers are kind of old fashion trend so there are couple of things that you should keep in my mind while you are thinking about wearing a blazer,

  • The first thing is, if you are going to wear a blazer, keep the breast pocket bare; don’t try beautify it with a badge unless you wear your blazer for club purposes.
  • The single-breasted blazers, whether navy or colored without the brass buttons, are modern and versatile as they can be dressed up with flannel trousers or dressed down with denim. And they can also be accessorized with the most formal of ascots or the most basic of ties.
  • In these days and ages, the traditional double-breasted, brass-buttoned nautical blazers are usually worn by older men; I’m talking the grandpa generation here. So, if you are thinking of trying this out, the best suggestion is, DON’T DO IT.
