I finally visited Top Knots salon in Seacliff after almost one year here in Tanzania. Here's their nail polish colour collection:
It felt wonderful going to a salon after such a long time. I know everyone says how you look doesn't really count it's what's inside that matters but let's face it people - that's only half true.
How can anyone feel good about themselves if they've got stringy hair, are overweight or have skin that makes the craters of the moon look smooth? I'm not being mean. I'm just pointing out a fact of life. Even Oprah, whom I think is always talking about the importance of who you are and not what you look like, didn't feel good about herself until she got a grip and lost some weight.
So since this is my blog and what I say goes, I'm going to put this piece of wisdom out there - how you look is probably going to reflect how you feel.
In other words, manicures, facials, blow dries and all the hundreds of other beauty treatments women subject themselves to are NOT luxuries but necessities. When a man feels bad about something he goes out and buys a ridiculously expensive gadget/vehicle. When woman feels bad about something she goes out and buys ridiculously expensive shoes and has ridiculously expensive beauty treatments.
After being suitably horrified by the movie Blood Diamonds I'm going to advocate expensive beauty treatments and not diamonds as a girl's best friend. At least nobody has to die just so we girls can get a fabulous manicure (at least I hope not!)
