Normal colored hair is not the trend now and color treated hair is the game. Going to the salon is expensive and takes much of your time so its better to do things at the convenience of your home. Here are simple coloring tips or you:
Blond..James Blond
Chamomile tea can be use to enhance blond hair.Brew 5-10 bags with 3/4 cups of water. Let it cool naturally or if in a rush, you can add 4 ice cubes to cool it. Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and place the mixture in a spray bottle. Spray on your hair evenly until all hairs are saturated. Cover hair in plastic wrap or plastic cap and let it sit for about 30-45minutes. For brighter results, use a heated towel and wrap around the head for about the same time.
Brunette for Fun
Dark color brunettes can use coffee.Coffee is a not just your simple cup of joe but also a great color enhancer. Using brewed coffe placed in a spray bottle, saturate your hair with the mixture and comb it until its evenly distributed. Leave on for about 20-30minutes. Repeat the process if you want to achieve darker result. Rinse well and shampoo. Use mild conditioner to lock in the color.
Bleed for Red
This is the easiest color to achieve. For an orangey, strawberry-blond, reddish mane, you can use carrot juice. Any carrot juice in a can is fine. Place it in a spray bottle, saturate your hair with the mixture and comb it until its evenly distributed. For a much deeper auburn red-tone manes, you can use beet. Do the same process with the spray. To ensure the vivid color, you can use heated towel and wrap around your head for almost 30mins then rinse off with mild shampoo then condition.
I do prefer home hair remedies because they are easily available for us. Its also practical to use and with lesser side effects compared to the chemically based hair dyes.

Breaking Up With Split Ends
Taking care of split ends is more about maintenance than anything else. First thing should be to ensure that your hair is perfectly hydrated and well oiled. Doing this would not only treat split ends but also prevent it from occurring.
Several concoctions are available over the net but here are a few of mine, I tweaked a bit so that it conforms to what I like.
Avocado Split - While hair is damp, mash a ripe avocado in a bowl. Leave on your scalp and hair for about 30-45mins then wash off with lukewarm water. If you do not have avocado (since they are only present in the store when its their season) you can use mayonnaise as a substitute.
Organic Hot Oil Treatment - for this I prefer lavender oil as a hot oil organic treatment. My base oil is lavender oil but you can use jojoba oil. Using aromatherapy by mixing 10 drops of either rosemary or sandalwood can also be done ( I prefer rosemary because of the relaxing smell overnight). Adding the mixture to base oil and rubbing it thoroughly into hair. Some people doesn't like leaving them overnight but I do that so that the oil can penetrate well into my hair follices. Just wash thoroughly with lukewarm water in the morning.
Egg Yolk Therapy - 1 egg yolk and 1 teaspoon of almond oil are the simple ingredients for this. Mix well and apply on your scalp. Better use your fingertips to ensure that the mixture goes into your scalp. Let it sit for an hour and rinse. Wash thoroughly or the egg yolk residue might turn into debris that later on will cause dandruff.
The hair happens to be at its most vulnerable just afhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifter a shower, so avoid brushing it at this point instead use a wide tooth comb. Great looking hair can add a very emphatic amount of panache and elegance to almost any appearance. Go on say "goodbye" to split ends, its one relationship worth ending anytime. Hair care treatments need not to be expensive

Start Treatment Early With Toenail Fungus Treatments
Dealing with fungal infections on our nails is very easy as long as you take the necessary steps while it is still early. This is because fungi are still susceptible to the many toenail fungus treatments that you can use while there are still minimal in number. Once they have multiplied and has become well established on our nails, it becomes much harder to get rid of them.
One way to get rid of fungal infections is by using toenail fungus treatments that you can buy in stores. These usually come as creams or ointments that you can apply on your nails. By simply applying some of this on your nails twice a day, the infection should subside within a matter of weeks without having to deal with any complications.
Even though this method is the easiest, there are still other ways that you can try to get rid of the fungi if you cannot buy the nail cream right away. There are a lot of home remedies that have been tried and tested by a lot of people to work in preventing the growth of fungi.
One of the more famous home remedies that has been proven to work is by using tea tree oil. This works similarly to toenail fungus treatments bough in stores as you will need to coat the affected area for the fungi to be eliminated. Other substances that you can try are mouthwash and Vicks vaporrub as well.
With home remedies, you can use materials that are readily available at home. The only problem with this is that it may be less effective than the creams being sold so you may need to use a lot of these substances before the infection will subside. It will also take a much longer time before the fungus is completely eradicated from the skin.
Whether you choose the treatments being sold in stores or use home remedies, it is best to start the treatment at once to prevent the growth of these fungi. Waiting for the infection to get worse will only lead to complications such as having weak and brittle nails, as well as having to deal with the foul smell that comes with fungal infections.
Serious complications will have to be checked by the doctor as regular home remedies and treatments will not suffice. You may have to deal with the fungus entering your body so the doctor might prescribe very strong and specific drugs to combat this infection.
Toenail fungus infections are very easy infections to treat as long as you take immediate action in getting rid of them. If you wait until the infection becomes worse, it would be much harder to get rid of them and you may have to spend a lot more money just to prevent it from doing even more harm to your body.
