Are Your Medicine Causing Your Thinning Hair?
Hair Growth
Hair usually grows about half an inch per month, although this slows as you age. Each hair remains on your head for two to six years, and during most of this time is continually growing. An average person has about 100,000 hairs.
As a hair gets older, it may enter a resting stage in which it remains on your head but doesn't grow. At the end of this stage, the hair usually falls out. Usually, the follicle replaces it in about six months.

Bananas: All That Potassium And Carmen Miranda Too! "?We have old-fashioned tomahto, Long Island potahto, but Yes, we have no bananas. We have no bananas today.."- Folk song by Frank Silver and Irving Cohen (1923)Whether you are off to Rio following the colorful trail of Carmen Miranda's fruit-filled hat or seated on your couch contemplating the universe, the banana can always come along for the ride.

Did you know that the word "banana" originates from the Arabic and means finger? Doesn't that make you wonder where the rest of the hand is?

(I always wondered why she never had her own show. She was so much cuter than Ed Sullivan.)...

Sounds like you need a Mommy Rep.Both reasons led Sidney's Closet, an online business selling handmade fashion accessories for moms and babies, to start a Mommy Rep program.
