Get healthy locks without splurging
Healthy hair doesn't mean you have to splurge on expensive products. Doctors say you can get just what you need in the drug store aisle if you know what to look for.
So many products, but which ones really help your hair and scalp be their healthiest?
Dermatologist Shirley Chi says there are a number of drug stores products that perform as well as the pricier versions.
"May not be exactly the same but it will give you a lot more bang for you buck," said Dr. Chi.

Dress Fest inspires and excites prom-goers
Kelen Dowdy knew it was the one for her the moment she saw it.
It was a strapless, turquoise Cinderella-style evening gown being modeled by a fellow student during the first annual Henderson County Prom Fest held this weekend at the Mountain Lodge off Upward Road.
The crowd oohed and aahed amid camera flashlights going off as beautiful young women in sparkling floor length gowns and handsome young men in tuxedos strutted their stuff on the catwalk on Sunday afternoon during a show to model the latest prom fashions. Girls squealed and their mothers smiled as each couple showed off sequined glamour worthy of the red carpet walk at the Academy Awards in Hollywood.
The event caused a change of heart for the 18-year-old West Henderson High student regarding her choice of attire for this year’s prom, she said.
“I already bought a dress, but now I’m having second thoughts,” she laughed. “I just know I’ve got to try that on.” read more...

Hopefuls yearn to be perfect fit for 'Model'
It was a nasty day, but the hopefuls didn't mind. Thousands of young women with Tyra Banks on their minds showed up at the Westin San Francisco Market Street one day last week for a shot at stardom on "America's Next Top Model."
A very, very long shot.
Still, their eyes were bright, their jeans were tight, and they waited for hours until they got their moment to state their name and aspirations in front of a video camera.
The popular reality series on the CW network has, up until now, featured typically leggy girls who appear to grow even taller and thinner as the season progresses. But not this time. For next year's Cycle 13 season, the casting call went out for those 5 feet 7 or shorter. read more...

Magazine offers fashion advice
Tufts’ newest student publication, the fashion magazine Infusion, released its first issue last month filled with style and entertainment advice for fellow Jumbos.
The magazine aims to provide fashion, health, beauty and culture tips to college students, according to sophomore Brittany Robbins, its editor-in-chief.
“It’s nice to have a college-centered fashion magazine,” Robbins said. “It is a fashion magazine, but at the same time, it’s a Tufts fashion magazine. It’s fashion for the college student on the run.”

Dannii Minogue's burlesque tips
Dannii Minogue will take style inspiration from Dita Von Teese in the new series of 'The X Factor'.
The Australian judge says she is a big fan of the burlesque dancer and wants to copy her wardrobe for her next stint on the panel of the TV talent show.
She said: "Who's my beauty icon? It's got to be Dita Von Teese. Nobody beats her for the power look."
Dannii ? who has been dating former rugby star Kris Smith for six months ? also hinted at having a crush on fellow 'X Factor' judge Simon Cowell, who has recently been spotted with flecks of grey in his black hair.
She laughed: "I am a total sucker for me with grey hair." read more...

Tips: Host a Clothing-Swap Party
- Thinking of hosting your own clothing swap party?
You don't have to only swap clothes; think shoes, accessories, books, household items even beauty products! How many times have you purchased a new hair product and only used it once?
The planning part is easy, set a date, come up with a guest list (that includes your most fashionable friends) and send out an Evite (wording suggestions are below). Encourage your guests to bring clothes and accessories that are still stylish and in good shape. Buy a couple bottles of wine and snacks (or ask guests to bring some) then clear space in your home and closets for the incoming clothes.
You may want to designate certain areas for certain items, for example, pants in this pile, jackets on this rack. When guests arrive, have them sort their items and put into the appropriate piles/racks. read more...
