  1. Replace pillows every 3 months? Sounds like the pillow industry paid for that story.

  2. I don’t clean my pillows very often either… certainly nowhere near every 3 months!

    I agree that a hairstyle can age us or erase a few years from our look, but I disagree with the idea that short hair is always more youthful looking than long. I kept my hair short for many years and then decided on a whim to grow it out which I’ve been doing for the past year. As I did, my natural unruly curls came out to play! I’m 65 and I’ve been told over and over that I look younger now. Recently, I tried straightening my hair just to see how that would look and I was flabbergasted by the old woman in the mirror! That aged me terribly, so I’ll be keeping the curly look which is so much easier anyway.

  3. I found the tips on thin hair very interesting. Definitely will try the zigzag parting.
