[phpbay]Days Later,100, “”, “”[/phpbay] Days Later
I recently heard from someone who had been having excessive hair loss and shedding for the past several months. She asked, in part: “why does my hair loss and shedding vary so much from day to day? One day, I can shed around 250 hairs, but the next day, I might only shed 50. These variations get my hopes up on the day that I shed less that things are getting better. But sure enough, a couple of days later, the shedding kicks back up again. Why does this happen? Does this mean I was improving but something stopped the improvement? Is it normal to have these types of fluctuations? How do I figure out how much hair I’m really losing and whether this is too much?” I’ll try to answer these questions in the following article.
It’s Normal For Hair Loss To Vary From Day To Day, But You Have To Watch The Averages: It’s not out of the ordinary to lose a large amount of hair one day and much less the next. There are many variables that affect this. Usually, you’ll see more hair shedding and hair loss on the day that you shampoo or wash your hair. And you typically see less hair loss on days where you skip washing. That’s because manipulating your hair follicles can pull out hairs that were already in the resting or shedding phase.
So, manipulating your hair and caring for it can appear to make more fall out, but the hair that does come out was going fall at some time in the near future anyway. Seeing more hair on these days doesn’t mean that you should cease or cut down on caring for your hair or scalp.
Knowing that these fluctuations are normal, how do you know how much hair you’re really losing and if your hair loss is a concern? You can typically just look at your averages. In the scenario above, this person lost around 300 hairs over the course of two days. The average of this would be 150 hairs per day which is well above that supposedly “normal” 100 shed hairs per day. I’m not suggesting that you count your hairs every day in order to get a precise average. In fact, I think this does you more harm than good because it creates stress that can make your hair loss worse. But once you’ve taken an initial count, you should be able to eye ball your loss in the coming days to tell where you are.
Is My Hair Loss Regimen Or Treatment Causing These Variations In Shedding?: People often ask me if it’s logical to blame their regimen when they notice huge fluctuations in hair loss. An example would be that someone tries a new topical or hair loss treatment on one day and then notices a huge shed the next day. That person might blame the new regimen and want to abandon it. The problem is, it’s nearly impossible to be able to point to a causal relationship between the two in such a short time frame.
It takes hair awhile to change phases and then to fall out. This process does not happen overnight. Unless you’ve having an immediate inflammatory or allergic reaction to a product of regimen, it’s unlikely that the hair you see coming out afterward is the direct result. Because most of the time, when you see a hair fall or shed out, that same hair has been in the resting phase for much longer than one day.
The bottom line is that even with hair loss conditions like TE, AGA, or AA, it’s not at all uncommon to see large swings and variations in the amount of hair you lose each day. And there’s not always a concrete reason for this. Sometimes, it’s just dependent on where your hair is in the hair loss process or it’s life cycle. And sometimes, the hair has been recently manipulated or is being negatively affected by the hair loss condition so that you see some elevated and more noticeable loss on selected days.
How do I know this? Because I lived it. Variations in the amount of hair shed was just one issue I dealt with when I was dealing with dramatic hair loss. In my quest to end my hair loss, I looked at my shedding triggers, my iron, my thyroid, my adrenals, my hormones, and my scalp’s health. It was a long, hard, frustrating journey which all but wrecked my self esteem but I finally found something that helped quite a bit.

[phpbay]Masterpiece Theatre,100, “”, “”[/phpbay] Masterpiece Theatre
The venerable Teatro Colon reopened last May after three years of restoration works, with a star-studded opera calendar that includes Puccini’s La Bohème and Mozart’s Don Giovanni.
The Teatro Colon of Buenos Aires has already presented its program for the 2010 Season. Happily, the companies will return to the theater’s concert hall that was re inaugurated on May 25th, 2010, with a Reopening Gala in celebration of the May Revolution Bicentenary. The 2010 Season will feature great figures as Daniel Barenboim, Zubin Mehta Paloma Herrera, and Yo-Yo Ma.
The theater opened on May 25, 1908, the Día de la patria (Motherland Day) in Argentina, with a performance of Verdi’s Aida. It quickly became a world-famous operatic venue rivaling La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera in attracting artists.
With excellent acoustics and modern stage areas, the theater’s interior design features a rich scarlet and gold decor. The cupola contains frescoes painted in 1966 by the renowned 20th century artist Raul Soldi during the renovation work.
Ever since the staging of Aída, various figures performed on this prodigious stage. Dance and ballet artists played their roles here and not only did they leave a long-lasting mark but also found in most cases the top roof of their careers thanks to the theater. Celebrities like Arturo Toscanini, Enrico Caruso and Titta Rufo, Richard Strauss and Arthur Nikisch, Lily Pons, Igor Stravinsky, María Callas and Maia Plissetskaya, to name a few, have accounted for what the Colón represented.
Luciano Pavarotti, considered by many as the greatest tenor in history, said about the theater: “…it has a very big defect, its acoustic is simply perfect. Imagine what that means for a singer: if one makes a mistake, it is noticed immediately …”
Plácido Domingo, another great tenor of the XX century, reviewed: “…what has impressed me most about the Colón Theater has always been its orchestra and its choir, as well as the wonderful workshops that work out any problem in a matter of minutes. The Colón is a marvelous theater, I would say it cannot be compared to any other theater in the world, because in addition to its artistic history, only masterpieces have been presented in its stage ever since its inauguration”.
ABONO DEL BICENTENARIO (BICENTENARY CONCERTS)A total of 8 concerts that will get together some of the most resounding figures in the season: Daniel Barenboim, Zubin Mehta and Yo-Yo Ma.

If you have a baby sleeping away in infant cribs or making a mess in baby highchairs, then chances are you’re a fan of a good baby movie. Babies movies are inevitably fun, entertaining and heartwarming affairs, because, frankly, who doesn’t love seeing a beautiful bouncing baby on the big screen? It’s much nicer than watching zombies or aliens. A baby movie is the perfect piece of entertainment for baby lovers to wind down to after babies are tucked away in their infant cribs for the night.
Check out these four must-see baby movies:
1. “Three Men and a Baby” – Who can resist this brilliant romantic comedy from 1987 featuring three gorgeous men – Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson – as bachelor roommates who rise to the challenge of taking care of a baby girl found mysteriously on their doorstep. There are jokes about dirty diapers galore, and plenty of pain over the messiness of feeding the baby in baby highchairs, but the best thing about the movie is the warm performance by Selleck, who gradually becomes a better man as a result of his newfound parental responsibilities.
2. “Father of the Bride II” – “In Father of the Bride”, George Banks, played by the hilarious Steve Martin, struggles with letting his cherished daughter Annie, played by the beautiful Kimberley Williams, get married. In this 1995 sequel, Annie is in full swing in the role of wife, and then she finds out that she’s pregnant. Just when this news is about all that George can handle, he finds out that he’s own wife, Nina, played by Diane Keaton, is pregnant. Suddenly, two babies are on the way, and that means double the baby highchairs and infant cribs.
3. “Babies” – If you’re wanting a baby movie that’s a little more realistic, you can’t go past “Babies,” a 2009 documentary by French director Thomas Balms, which follows four babies from around the world, from birth to first steps. In Tokyo, Mari is surrounded by lots of perplexing educational tools in her playpens for babies, and she falls over, crying in frustration when she can’t figure out how to fit that rod into that hole. In San Francisco, Hattie, whose parents are a pair of new-age hippies, attends dance and movement classes and bobs up and down in her harness. Bayar in Mongolia lives a carefree rural existence, as does Ponijao in the Namibian flatlands. “Babies” gives a fascinating insight into the way different babies live, and will have you wondering which babies have it better.
4. “Baby Boom” – In this 1987 comedy, Diane Keaton plays a high-powered, yuppie advertising executive and has her life exactly the way she wants it – a gorgeous apartment, a husband, a six figure income, and no kids. But her world is turned upside down when she inherits a bouncing bundle of joy. Suddenly, she has to go out and buy infant cribs, baby highchairs and baby cribs bedding, and she struggles to incorporate the role of mother into her busy life.
