No Cosmetic Surgery Beauty Products
I saw Dr. Youn on the Tamara Hall show, and found out that he is a believer in using “natural” methods for long term beauty regimens. He does sell beauty products, which I am happy to inform you he
reports to be “cruelty-free”.
I share his website with you because at HairBlues we try to help you find good beauty products.
You can view the Tamron Hall show contents at the link below.

Essential Oils for Stress
Aromatic Studies is a school I am very familiar with because I am a graduate of that institution.
In a recent blog post by Holly Brandenberger who is a Registered Nurse and Certified Aromatherapist, she shares her choices for essential oils to use for stress and well-being. It is a real find to have this information available for free just by clicking the link below.
The added benefit is knowing that she is a registered nurse who suggests that these powerful oils, which are produced from plants, are some things that we can find and use for our wellness regimen and well-being exploration.
Take a look when you find a moment. I assure you that you will not be disappointed. Afterall, what can we lose when there is plant powered guidance for us to use?

Cancer Awareness Month and Hair Donation Charities
Hello Everyone,
Each year on HairBlues, during October, I show information regarding Breast Cancer Awareness with advice on various beauty options available to those who want support in their daily ”looking and feeling good” confidence whilst they proceed through the various challenges of chemotherapy, radiation and all those many days of journeying and taking those steps with the courage that leads to Wellness again.
This year I am sharing links about hair donation requirements. In addition, there is information about how to acquire hair, cooling caps, and hair coverings. https://cancercareservices.org/news/where-to-donate-your-wig-or-hair/

OMD Plan for Better Skin
In Episode 57 of the Wellness Connections podcast I introduced the One Meal a Day Plan by Suzy Amis Cameron.
She claims that eating a ‘plant-based’ diet can contribute to better skin and better health.

Benefits of Hand Massage with Carrier & Essential Oils
News you can use 🙂
Have you thought about using your essential oils to massage your hands? Recently I decided to see how using this option benefits your “well-being” care.
Here is what I learned from an article at the Healthline website:
- better mood
- reduced hand pain
- less anxiety
- improved sleep
- greater grip strength
See additional details at the link below.
https://www.healthline.com/health/pain-relief/the-many-benefits-of-a-hand-massage-and-how-to-do-it-yourself#benefits
Treat yourself to watching the 5 minute hand massage demonstrations at the videos below. You will not be disappointed.
Healthline has detailed guidelines for which carrier and essential oils to use. In addition, I want to remind you always use a carrier oil (for example, fractionated coconut oil, olive oil) to dilute essential oils. Learn more about essential oils dilution at this link: https://hairblues.me/2022/07/04/an-essential-oil-dilution-lesson/
