Hollywood celebrities have always been known for presenting the latest fashion trends. We tend to do our hair, nails and make-up in the same way and using the same products and methods that are sported by our favorites.
Celebrity people have the best stylists at their service. By copying or succeeding celebrity hairstyles we are trying to keep the step with fashion.
Today’s hairstyle fashion presents Sedu hairstyles, and many celebrities including Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, and Jessica Simpson are the brightest stars of Sedu hairstyles.
These people are known for their long, silky and smooth locks that are flowing freely down their necks, underlying the gorgeous beauty and chic that are so natural for them.
But with all filming, photo shooting and constant change of their hair styles is it possible for them to have naturally long hair?
This question is rather har
d to answer because you can’t be one hundred percent sure that you’re telling the truth. Jennifer Aniston is definitely against extensions because during the filming of Friends constant use of extensions has almost killed her beautiful hair. So, those fabulous long locks of hers are to the smallest strand her natural length.
Jessica Simpson is known for her beautiful hair, but her stylist Ken Paves uses extensions to keep that famous Jessica Simpson Sedu hairstyle.
So, what lies behind the beautiful hair of Hollywood celebrities?
Extensions is the strands of hair arranged in such a way that they can be easily attached to your natural hair, increasing the length and the thickness of your hair.
They come in two main types:
• Individual strands;
• Wefts.
These two types of hair extensions differ by the way they are attached to your hair and the quality of the hair itself.
Individual strands are applied in small sections by weaving, heat fusing, gluing, or clamping with metal rods. Such method of hair extension includes applying to your own hair various chemical or foreign substances or objects. Of course, as every method this one also has its own advantages and disadvantages.
The main advantages of such method are:
• Long hair;
• Ability to make any hairstyle;
• Ability to use hair of any color, texture, or quality.
The greatest disadvantages of
individual strands are:
• Application of foreign chemical or metal substances or objects to your hair;
• Hair damage during the removal of the extensions;
• Inability to use certain hair care products in order not to damage extensions or your own hair.
Generally, method of individual strands extensions is not popular among celebrities because of the risk of hair damage. When you need to have one hundred per cent beautiful look all the time, you cannot allow yourself to risk losing one of your most important beauty signs.
On the other hand, wefts represent the little curtain of hair attached together at the top and freely flowing at the bottom. Wefts come in two types:
• Hand made;
• Machine made.
Wefts are much more expensive, but they almost completely eliminate any risk of hair damage. Both hand made and machine made wefts are of natural human hair only. There are four main types of human hair used in hair extension:
• Asian hair. This type of hair is very straight and dark. You may use it if you are Asian yourself or if you can’t afford using more expensive extensions.
• European quality hair. Such hair is collected in India and Pakistan. It is usually of dark colors and is not chemically treated. But due to darkness this hair is difficult to dye and it is not suitable for blonds and redheaded people.
• European hair. This hair is gathered in Italy and Spain. It may be wavy and is usually of dark shades. Such extensions last up to a year.
• Raw/Virgin hair. It is the best quality hair possible. It is very expensive and you can be absolutely sure that it is not chemically treated. If you buy blond hair, it has grown on the blond head.
To apply weft to your hair the stylist braids a horizontal track (very small plait) to which he/she attaches the weft. Such types of applying the hair extension allow you to keep your own hair undamaged by chemicals and keep the same extension for several years. All you need to do is to come to the salon once in 6-8 weeks and reapply the extension.
Among celebrities wefts of raw hair are the most popular because they can be dyed in any color and there is no risk that such extensions will fall out or became thinner. This is the best way to add length to your Sedu hairstyle and let your own hair grow healthy.

Ken from Outside The Berm, read my recent El Toro/Lake Forest post and shared this 1960 slide of the El Toro Country Store.
Today I'm posting photos of two Space Age wonders from the Orange Public Library's history collection. The first image (top) shows the Cinedome movie theater under construction in 1969. The second image shows the Luer Meat Rocket (no jokes please), in Orange's 1956 May Festival Parade. (The Soviets had rockets in their May Day parades too, but that was kinda different.)
The images above come from the April 1937 issue of Popular Mechanics. The accompanying article reads, "Constant breaking of trees and bruising of fruit by trucks hauling fruit through the groves has been ended by California citrus growers. On the recommendation of automotive engineers they now use a long slender truck which rolls through the grove without causing damage."
Tustin Hills Citrus Association was a growers cooperative, organized in 1909. They had a packing house in Tustin, between Holt and Newport Ave. near Irvine Blvd. They later joined the Southern California Fruit Exchange, which eventually became Sunkist.
The aerial photo below comes from the Tustin Area Historical Society, and shows the Tustin Hills packing house around 1950.
Here are two of my favorite things, mashed together: Local history and "California School" watercolor painting. This painting hangs on the wall at the Saddleback Area Historical Society's library, which I had the pleasure of visiting yesterday. (More about that at a later date.)
Today's images show the Joy Zone in Seal Beach in about 1917. The postcard image above 
shows the large wood rollercoaster, The Derby, which came from the 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition in San Francisco, (as did the "Scintillator Lights" which graced the end of the Seal Beach Pier). The grainy inset image shows Santa Ana's own Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle (left) filming a movie at the same location. The Joy Zone was built in 1916, one year after the city was incorporated. City founder Philip A. Stanton hoped to make his town the “The Coney Island of the Pacific” and the “playground of Southern California.” Indeed, at its height, as many as 20,000 visitors came to Seal Beach each week -- Many of them arriving on the Pacific Electric's Red Cars.
elegant look will look fantastic with just about any dress style.
The members of the “Green” cult tell us that today is “Earth Day.” So I'm acknowledging their religious holiday with a story about a hole in the ground. (Hard to get closer to Mother Earth than that!) The photos above show the shafts of the Santa Ana Tin Mine, in Trabuco Canyon, on March 20, 1903. Tin was first discovered in the canyon in 1877, but it was over a decade before anything was done about it.
Unfortunately, no tin was ever taken from the mine. Some say it was too difficult to separate the tin from the various other minerals in the ore. Others say there wasn’t enough tin to bother with. Either way, after an investment of $1.5 million, tin mining operations ceased in 1906. After digging more than 1,000 feet of shafts and tunnels, it took only a month and a half of ore refining efforts to determine that the mine was a failure.
Today's post is all Santa Ana, starting with the photo above, which is a detail from a 1946 postcard showing North Main St. The Horton Furniture building and the adjacent Arcade are still standing. A Jack In The Box now stands at the corner of Civic Center Drive, where the California Hotel was. The dome in the background was the Congregational Church.
The two construction/demolition photos above and the court photo at right came from the same set of 1936 images of Santa Ana (which I sadly did not win on Ebay). The two above show construction at what appears to be Santa Ana High School. New classroom and shop buildings, designed by Allison & Allison, were built that year. I have no idea where the bungalow court is/was located, but it's a nice contemporary image of that style of building. 
o graduation. It gives a chunky effect to give the hair a rich and fullness impression.
There is a plan afoot in Huntington Beach to tear out the Main Street Branch Library (1951) and the surrounding park area and replace it with a bunch more buildings. Last week, the City's Historic Resources Board decided to send a letter to their City Council laisons asking that the site be studied more to assess its historical value. The Huntington Beach Downtown Residents Association encouraged this action and presented their own historical research to the Board.

th a pick or simply with your fingers. There is no need for chemicals, so you won't do any harm to your hair. What an exciting way to begin this article about African American hairstyles, now let's take a look at what else we can learn about that!
Modern Architecture is now officially historic, and no better proof exists than the tract homes built by developer Joe Eichler in the 1950s. They brought the best of Modern residential design within reach of the average home-buyer. Today, like the Victorian houses a century ago, they are being rediscovered for preservation and restoration. (The photo above shows an Eichler home at 5122 E. Elsinore Ave. in Orange.)
There is also an Eichler tract in Fullerton, called "Fullerton Grove," but that seemed a bit off the beaten path for this particular event.
Today, the Orange County Probation Department held a party at the Lamoreaux Justice Center to celebrate their agency's 100th year. There was a nice display of historical artifacts and documents, including this great portrait (above) of David R. McMillan, who served as Chief Probation Officer from 1939 to 1967. (During World War II, Carl S. Warner served as interim Chief until McMillan's return from military service.)
In the photo below, County Supervisors Nguyen and Moorlach and Chief Probation Officer Colleene Preciado were among the many dignitaries wishing the agency a happy birthday.
The many historical documents unearthed by the Probation Dept. in preparation for their centennial will soon be given to the Orange County Archives, where they will be available for current and future generations of historians. The history of law enforcement agencies is usually pretty interesting, and this is no exception.
This 1915 promotional brochure for Orange County seemed like a good pick for my first post-Easter post.
