Hairy Scary

The Do's And Don'ts of Do-It-Yourself Dye Jobs

We asked celebrity colorists Joel Warren and Frank Friscioni, and women who color their hair regularly to share their tips and tricks for making an at-home dye job look every bit as chic as a professional one. Here's what they had to say and what our women recommend.

When you're choosing a color ...DO talk to a professional at a salon to get advice on which shades work best for you, says Joel Warren, a colorist and co-owner of the Warren-Tricomi salon in New York City. "If you've never colored your hair before, a colorist will be able to tell you what'll work best with your skin tone and what the formula is," says Warren. "It's worth the investment because it means you've got a better shot of finding a similar shade at the drugstore."

When you color at home you run the risk of seriously ruining your look. This can be a very risky thing if you are novice or are in a hurry or just plain.... don't know what your doing. In either case it is better to color your hair with someone who has a little experience or leave it all to the experts. This is entirely up to you.....

No matter what you decide always use a color safe shampoo. And if you can you should wait for at least one day before you wash your hair.

Size Zero Models Are Back!! -- In London

LONDON (AFP) - One of the biggest names in British fashion, known for its close links to supermodel Kate Moss, will not use size zero models during London Fashion Week, media has reported.

Topshop, a high street brand which peddles cutting edge designs at affordable prices, has asked its designers not to use waifs.

It signed a much-trumpeted design deal with the famously skinny Moss last year.

The news came days after the British Fashion Council said it would not ban stick-thin models from London's catwalks when the shows start in two weeks' time, despite increasing pressure for the move.

"We are going to set the scene at the opening of London Fashion Week and I hope everyone else follows," Sir Philip Green, head of the Arcadia group, which owns Topshop, said in the Daily Telegraph.

"We all know what the definition of unhealthy is and we want to try to act correctly, responsibly and without causing a rift."

But he added that the company would not go as far as weighing its models.
The organizers of Madrid Fashion Week in September banned women with a body mass index (BMI) of less than 18, while ultra-thin models were also barred from Milan's fashion week.

The World Health Organization' World Health Organization says a woman is underweight if she has a BMI of less than 18.5, and adds that a BMI of between 18.5 and 24.9 is desirable.

BMI measures body fat based on height and weight and it is thought that a 5ft 9in (1.75 metres) model would have to weigh at least 55 kilograms (121 pounds) to comply with the WHO's suggested range.

Kate Moss is also the girlfriend of Pete Doherty from the famous UK group, The Babyshambles. You can find their music on THE FASHION CULTURE BEAUTY NETWORK - FASCUBE- POUND Blog which is here......

Kate Moss has had somewhat of a controversial career due to recent drug trouble and headline grabbing antics. The industry scene is looking into events like these as it works to clean up the modeling scene and project a more positive image.
