Olympics

Monday, August 18, 2008 10:28 PM

Have any of you been watching the Olympics? I must say, it's been quite a strange showing of athleticism. I'm constantly amazed by each event I watch and although I wasn't into the pomp and circumstance of all of the marketing, I have since been drawn in by the talent. For some reason, during each display of incredible strength, agility and endurance, I hold my breath....until the end. I'm thankful for the short events since my face turns blue during the long ones! tee hee... But during the events, it is almost as if I'm the one on the rings, parallel bars, diving board...I've put in the years of grueling work, sweat and tears. Now, it's my moment...well, kind of. Yep, I think even my neighbors hear me at night when my air is exhaled with a strong, "WHOOSH" and followed by a sigh of relief that the athletes are still alive!

The spectacular achievement of Michael Phelps (and his teammates) has been quite a joy to watch. Can you imagine being the first person to ever acheive the honor of earing 8 gold medals in the Olympics? What if we were to apply the same judging criteria to Hair Direct? Let's think about it...

a Gold Medal goes to Hair Direct for the following 8 categories...

1. Customer Service

2. Product Quality

3. Money Back Guarantee that is actually real!

4. Education and Availability

5. Comprehensive Website

6. Committment to Consistant Improvement

7. Principles of Business (and Personal) Practice

8. Owner Integrity

Yes, although each category may not be a "Perfect 10" (I haven't seen one of those scores yet in the Olympics) the scores certainly show that Hair Direct would be a "GOLD MEDAL WINNER" in the Olympics for hair wearers everywhere...

Now, Bill??? How are you at swimming???

For now, I'll stick to watching the television and holding my breath!

Happy Olympics everyone!

About Babe with a Mane

My natural hair has not been seen for over 20 years. It has hidden under wigs and weaves, under toppik, colored sprays, couvre and dermatch. My growing hair is a significant burden. It takes too much time to try to fix it up to be presentable, too much money to try to fix, too much energy to worry about and conceal. Every day, I used to wish for great hair. Every day I was ashamed of my thin hair. Every day, I woke up feeling confident, feminine and sexy inside. Then, I looked in the mirror at my natural hair and those positive thoughts were robbed from me. My natural hair forced me to feel unattractive, timid and insecure. I know who I am inside and I wanted to project that image to everyone else. To do that, my hair had to change. Women who are bald or have very thin hair, are not considered "socially acceptable" in the general public's eye. I wanted to be considered socially acceptable, my natural hair wouldn't let me. My dream hair allows me to lead a normal life. I wake up to my guy nuzzling my neck while my soft hair is brushed aside. I jump in the shower to wash my hair. I look in the mirror to see a confident and sexy woman, looking back at me. I don't waste hours trying to disguise myself to fit in. I blow dry and curl my hair and go to work with a spring in my step. I don't catch others staring at my thin hair while trying to have a conversation with me. The same confident, self assurance that I feel inside is now projected on the outside. There are no further internal battles between true persona and an incongruous outward appearance. I am finally, after a lifetime of dreaming, able to project an image that reflects the confident, sexy, intelligent, feminine woman I truly am.

Not born with hair, but I've got the intelligence to find it, the job to pay for it, the patience to "stick" it on just right, the will to make it work, the confidence to wear it boldly and the smile to wear under it!
