The key to wiggling your ears: Walk like an Egyption!
I wanted to learn Tom Hagerty‘s scalp exercises to get the same results he has: no forehead wrinkles, lots of hair with his original hair color. (He is over 74 and still has naturally dark hair!) Previously, I couldn’t even feel the muscles at the back of the head he was talking about. Tonight I [...]
Make your Hair Story a Happy One
Women, please do not let anyone commoditize your beauty. Our beauty is being reduced and repackaged and sold back to us in a lesser form. What? Is the only way to protest not to care about how beautiful your beautiful self looks? No, do not bother with them enough to protest, flow like the river [...]

My inner “masculinity”/”feminity” scale

Lions, and Tigers, and sturdy shoes

From Bitter to Sweet in 5 hours flat (Part 1)
This year as co-chair of our “young adult” group was challenging. Members of our steering committee who committed to serve flaked out leaving us with a larger than expected work load. We made several dramatic decisions (with due process) that people who founded the group were upset about. I felt a lot of pressure about [...]
