I just highlighted my hair and was wondering what I could do to restore its moisture and shine. I had medium strawberry blonde hair, and I added some light blonde highlights. Because blonde hair does not have the same reflective properties as brunette and black hair, I was hoping for some specific products or remedies designed for my type of problem.
Would a glaze work on my hair? I've been dying to try a gloss treatment at the salon, but I don't know if it will work with my new highlights. Just wondering...
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Best Answer - Chosen By Voters
if you are in India, then there is a product widely known as Livon. Extremely good to disentangle long hair. I speak from experience. It should be available under different trade names - the only prob is that I know it under this brand only.
Try it - cheers.

Rudy Giuliani has taken a tip from Harlan Ellison and trademarked his name. The Daily News doesn鈥檛 make it clear if he鈥檚 just slapped a 鈩?after it, or ponied up the money for a full 庐, but I think it鈥檚 a mistake to assume as Steve Benen does that this is just about Giuliani鈥檚 consulting business. The Trademark Dilution Act became law in October, and it allows an injunction against infringing actions 鈥渂y reason of dilution by tarnishment, the person against whom the injunction is sought willfully intended to harm the reputation of the famous mark.鈥?Speak ill of Rudy庐 (or Rudy鈩?, and you鈥檒l be shut down. 鈥擮h, sure, there鈥檚 an exemption carved out for 鈥渁ll forms of news reporting and news commentary,鈥?but who the hell knows what that is, anymore?
Is that a 75mm recoilless rifle on your Vespa, or are you happy to see me?
Teresa linked to this:
The ACMA Troupes Aer贸l Port茅es Mle. 56.
Which is, yes, a Vespa scooter fitted with a 75mm recoilless rifle.
After World War II, there was little money for defense spending while the nations of Europe rebuilt their industry and society. When there was some cash to spend, one had to be creative to stretch it as far as possible. The French probably accomplished the most astounding example of that with the ACMA Troupes Aer贸l Port茅es Mle. 56. Deployed with their airborne forces, this was essentially a militarized Vespa scooter outfitted with a 75mm recoilless rifle. Five parachutes would carry the two-man gun crew, weapon, ammunition, and two scooters safely to earth, and the men would load the weapon on one scooter and the ammo on the other, then ride away. More impressively, the recoilless rifle could be fired effectively on the move by the best of the gun crews. Total cost? About $500 for the scooter and the recoilless rifle was war surplus. Were they successful military machines? Well, the French Army deployed about 800 armed scooters in wars conducted in both Algeria and Indochina.
This, for whatever reason, reminded me of this old thread over at Vince Baker鈥檚 joint鈥攕pecifically, this comment:
ROCKING WITH JFC FULLER
There are three things you can do in a fight:
1. HURT THE OTHER GUY 鈥?how hard can you hit the other guy with your rock/RPG/railgun?
2. PROTECT YOURSELF 鈥?how hard are you to hit, and how hard a hit can you take?
3. MOVE AROUND 鈥?how fast can you move, over whatever ground?
The core dilemma: Anything you do to make yourself better at one of these things makes you worse at one or both of the others.
That applies on all scales:
1. 鈥滱s long as I stay in this ditch, they can鈥檛 shoot me! But I can鈥檛 shoot back, unless I stand up鈥攚hich makes it easier for them to shoot me, too鈥攁nd I can鈥檛 move except back and forth in the ditch鈥攗nless I get out and run鈥攚hich makes it easier for them to shoot me and I鈥檒l be moving too fast too aim.鈥?br> 2. 鈥滿en, form a square! Excellent, now Napoleon鈥檚 cavalry cannot hope to overrun us. But with men facing all four directions instead of in a line, we can鈥檛 concentrate our musket fire against any one target, and if we wanted to march anywhere, we would really move faster in column formation.鈥?br> 3. 鈥漈his new tank has impenetrable armor! But that means no engine we can put in it will move it very fast. And if we want to put a bigger gun in it, it鈥檒l be even slower, unless we get rid of some armor鈥?鈥?br> 4. 鈥漁ur clan has always been safe in the mountains! If those filthy lowlanders try to attack, we just slaughter them like sheep in the narrow passes! Of course, if we try to attack the lowlanders, they just slaughter us coming out the other end of the passes. And even in a year with little snow, we can barely move warriors from one village to another.鈥?br>
See how the same iron triangle of tradeoffs repeats itself? The only way out of the dilemma鈥攕ometimes!鈥攊s higher technology, but even then, once you get the more powerful engine for your tank (or whatever), you just move from your old trade-space to a new, slightly better trade-space.
I suppose because the Mle. 56 is a remarkably unexpected method of squaring this particular iron triangle. But also because I like to imagine the Ilk of Jonah being chased by squads of the dam鈥?things. 鈥擨 am, at base, a petty, petty man.
Anyway: into the commonplace book it goes.

The trick is how to find it.
鈥淛eff Conaway!鈥?I said to myself, stumbling over the name in maybe a Gawker Stalker or something, pegging him by the reference to his Christianity. Now that I have his name, I can go to imdb and scroll down his credits and trust that the name of the show will be self-evident. 鈥擨鈥檇 forgotten the name of the show, see, and everyone who was in it except the star who was the guy from Grease and later Taxi whose name I could never remember. (Though for whatever reason the whole born-again thing stuck with me.) I don鈥檛 even remember the show itself that well, just that it was funny when I was fifteen, and I cared enough about it to hurry back to the hotel room after a swim meet so I could coax the bunny ears into pulling down a relatively snow-free CBS signal. Then they killed it. 鈥擜nd now I learn that most of the episodes were directed by Bill Bixby. Wizards and Warriors. Damn. Everything鈥檚 pretty much in this intertubes thing somewhere, isn鈥檛 it? (Except, y鈥檏now, the actual episodes.)

Since then, I鈥檝e lived my life in New York and Boston and the Pioneer Valley and Portland, Oregon, and I haven鈥檛 spent more than two weeks at a stretch south of the Mason Dixon. (And those stretches are sometimes awfully few and far between.) 鈥擝ut I cook up hoppin鈥?john for New Year鈥檚, every year (though, apostasic, I make it without the fatback). I taught my Jersey girl how to eat grits and I make my biscuits from scratch. (Food? Don鈥檛 laugh. Look to the roots of your own tongue.) 鈥擨鈥檓 haunted by the smell of magnolia blossoms, plucked and left in a drinking glass on the mantelpiece. (They smell lemony, the same way apples do.) Long pine needles crushed underfoot, dry, not wet and silvery grey; evergreens burnt brown by the sun. I always forget until I see it from the window of the plane, how red the dirt is, scraped up, laid shockingly bare in circles of development scars that will always ring Charlotte: how wrong it looks, how raw. It鈥檚 not the color the earth is supposed to be. It鈥檚 alien; I鈥檓 home.
For a couple of weeks, at most. And then.
(鈥淵ou will find no other place, no other shores,鈥?says C.P. Cavafy. 鈥淭his city will possess you, and you鈥檒l wander the same streets. In these same neighborhoods you鈥檒l grow old; in these same houses you鈥檒l turn grey.鈥?
鈥擨f you aren鈥檛 Southern, I don鈥檛 know that I can explain the little thrill I felt when I saw the motto for the Levine Museum of the New South: 鈥淭elling the story鈥?865 to tomorrow.鈥?Shock is hardly the word. Frisson even seems too strong. It鈥檚 a stifled giggle; a flash of a grin, at something you鈥檇鈥檝e done yourself, but never would have thought to do. It hardly seems worth mentioning, but鈥攚ell, maybe the About Us page will bring it into focus for the Yankees among us?
What is the New South?
The New South means people, places and a period of time 鈥?from 1865 to today. Levine Museum of the New South is an interactive history museum that provides the nation with the most comprehensive interpretation of post-Civil War southern society featuring men, women and children, black and white, rich and poor, long-time residents and newcomers who have shaped the South since the Civil War.
New South Quick Facts
* A Time鈥擳he New South is the period of time from 1865, following the Civil War, to the present.
* A Place鈥擳he New South includes areas of the Southeast U.S. that began to grow and flourish after 1865.
* An Idea鈥擳he New South represents new ways of thinking about economic, political and cultural life in the South.
* Reinvention鈥擳he New South encompasses the spirit of re-invention. The end of slavery forced the South to reinvent its economy and society.
* People鈥擳he New South continuously reinvents itself as newcomers, natives, immigrants, visitors and residents change the composition and direction of the region.
To say that you are about the South, but dismiss the antbellum鈥攏ot to forget, because who can forget, not even to repudiate it, but to wave it off as no longer important to the South you want to look at, here and now鈥?Don鈥檛 throw out the cotton and the rice, the pastel dresses and grey uniforms, the stars and bars and whips and chains. Those things are all still very much alive and kicking. But cut out the thing that props them up, the hollow rites, the archly wounded pride; blithely (if a little self-consciously) announce you鈥檙e leaving the Civil War well enough alone, to all the many other hands that want it; you will turn your attention to everything else, and watch it all fall into some saner perspective鈥?865 to tomorrow鈥?br>
(鈥淗ow long can I let my mind moulder in this place?鈥?says C.P. Cavafy. 鈥淲herever I turn, wherever I happen to look, I see the black ruins of my life, here, where I鈥檝e spent so many years, wasted them, destroyed them totally.鈥?
The Levine Museum of the New South is currently hosting an exhibit called 鈥淔amilies of Abraham.鈥?Eight photographers spent over a year with 11 families in the Charlotte area鈥擟hristian families, Jewish families, Muslim families鈥攔ecording their holidays and everydays, putting the photos together to demonstrate that when you set aside the different words we鈥檝e each plucked from the same shambolic Book and just look at the people, going about their lives, well, under the chadors and yarmulkes and double-knit blazers we鈥檙e all, y鈥檏now, the same. Basically.
Which is why, given the way things currently are, what with the Pragers and the Goodes and the Qutbs, this show is important. 鈥擝ut it鈥檚 not why it鈥檚 important to me.
Basheer Khatoon with her great-grandson, Raahil.
That鈥檚 a photo (by my mother, which is why the show is important to me, yes, but), a photo of Basheer Khatoon with her great-grandson, Raahil, taken in the home she shares with her son, a Charlotte cardiologist.
My South鈥攖he South in my head, the South I came from鈥攄oesn鈥檛 have a Basheer Khatoon. But there she indisputably is. Alien鈥攁nd yet, from all the years I鈥檝e spent since and elsewhere, heimlich. The world has come to the South; the South鈥攎y South鈥攊s becoming part of the world.
No matter where we go, there we are; we find no other place, no other shore. We wander the same streets, grow old in the same neighborhoods. 鈥擝ut those streets change.

How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Use hair cholesteral. I know it sounds gross, but it is really cheap and works so awesome! I used it when I fried my hair out by bleaching too many times. With one treatment it was back to normal, not to mention full and shiny and super healthy looking. It's in the ethnic hair section of any Walmart, or in beauty supply shops.
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Do you use BioSilk? Or try a Henna treatment at a salon that offers it.
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Go to your supermarket and try a "gloss" or a "shine" spray or serum. They're very effective and usually work by coating the hair in a layer of silicone to give it a shiny appearance and lustrous texture. Use sparingly though, as gloss/shine sprays that DO contain silicone will eventually damage the hair through silicone build up. Anything with castor oil in it is great too (Garnier Fructis makes a great products).
Have fun! :)
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Biosilk makes a wonderful gloss that doesn't weigh your hair down. The gloss treatment at the salon will also work but it fades pretty quick.
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Yes use some kind of oil. Ex: Biosilk is wonderful. use it daily, on mid shaft out. on wet hair. blow it dry and i guarantee you'll love your hair
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Some conditioners have special chemicals [not really chemicals] but they have certain things in them that make your hair shinny and very healthy looking. Try looking for one that says it on the bottle. Also after you shower, if you turn the water reallyyy cold then just rinse your hair in the cold water, it's suppose to make it look shiny and healthy. I do it all the time, it really does work. :]
How do you make your hair super shiny and healthy looking? Shen Min in Chinese means "Life or Vitality".
