Go RED for Women in February!

Did you know that heart disease is the number one killer of women in the United States, claiming more lives than all other forms of cancer combined?

For the last 10 years the American Heart Association has promoted heart disease visibility with their Go Red campaign. See below for how you can participate, and for information about how you may be affected by heart disease and not even know it.

Permanent hair reduction is one of the most requested services that we offer in our laser and cosmetics department. This month we have a special deal for men and women who want to remove hair from their backs, arms, legs, or face.

If you put weight management on your list of goals this year, consider our hCG weight loss program that is physician supervised and drops weight off fast.

Jolene introduces us to the Pantone color of the year, and we invite you to meet some of our staff! This month we are featuring the nurse practitioners and nurse midwives.

Thanks for being our valentine!

A heart attack does not always have obvious symptoms, such as pain in your chest, shortness of breath and cold sweats. In fact, a heart attack can actually happen without a person knowing it. It is called a silent heart attack, or medically referred to as silent ischemia (lack of oxygen) to the heart muscle.

People who have these so-called silent heart attacks are more likely to have non-specific and subtle symptoms such as:

indigestion
feeling like you have the flu
feeling of strained a muscle in chest or upper back.
discomfort in the jaw or the upper back or arm
prolonged and excessive fatigue that is unexplained.

Those are some of the less specific symptoms for a heart attack, but ones that people may ignore or attribute to something else. Click here for more about the risks and symptoms of heart disease.

Radiant Orchid - the Pantone color of the year!

Every year Pantone, the company who establishes professional color standards, reaches around the globe and looks for color influences in textiles, events, artists, and designers, to select a "color of the year."

This year the color is Radiant Orchid, a harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones.

Pantone says Radiant Orchid encourages expanded creativity and originality.

Pantone color 2014

You've already seen a lot of the orchid colorway on runways around the world in 2014 fashion shows. And it's showing up at red carpet events as well. Radiant Orchid’s rosy undertones radiate on the skin, producing a healthy glow when worn by both men and women.

According to Pantone, Radiant Orchid enlivens the skin, making all who wear it feel more healthy and energetic. Blending both cool and warm undertones, purple is an appealing hue for distinctive combinations and flattering to many hair, eye and skin tones.

This multifaceted hue combines well with red and is excellent when paired with its sister shades of lavender, purple and pink, which provides an assortment of lipstick and blush options. Radiant Orchid also acts as a brilliant finishing touch to nails.

If you'd like to carry the color through in your home decorating, click here for some ideas.

And Pinterest is filled with ideas for using Radiant Orchid!

Give us a call or stop in for a mini-makeover. We have a variety of cosmetic options that will highlight your skin tone and color, and keep you on-trend.
