Even in the recession resistant hair care industry, a rapidly changing economic environment has many salon and barbershop owners searching for answers. Theyve tried every marketing tactic in the book and still cant find a way to separate their salon from the competition.
Thats not the case for Milwaukee-based Sport Clips owner, Wally Sauthoff, and Tampa-based boutique salon owner, Geo Sweeney, and hundreds of other salon owners around the country who benefited from Our Town Americas unique new mover marketing program in 2012. As Wally and Geo suggest below, Our Town America works particularly well for hair salons because their warm gift certificate packages reach men and women within days of their move, right when they are seeking their new go-to hair care partner.
In order to build off that success, Michael Plummer and the Our Town America team have announced that they are offering a stronger loyalty program to their sponsors in 2013 that will send additional offers to new movers who redeem their first gift certificate.
Dr. Jason Diamond reviews the latest results from The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recently published list of the top five cosmetic surgery procedures in the United States and offers tips on how to choose a plastic surgeon.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the number one cosmetic procedure in 2012 was breast augmentation with 286,000 surgeries, a number that declined 7% from the prior year. 246,000 patients underwent nose reshaping in 2012, unchanged from 2011. Eyelid surgery saw a modest increase of 4% from 2011, bringing the total number to 204,000. Approximately 202,000 people chose liposuction in 2012 (a 1% decline). 126,000 patients sought out a plastic surgeon for a facelift in 2012, an increase of 6%.
The statistics are consistent with the trends Dr. Jason Diamond sees in his busy Beverly Hills medical practice. Using the latest medical technology and research, says Dr. Diamond. plastic surgeons and skin care professionals are now able to offer a range of alternatives for patients looking to reduce lines and wrinkles and achieve younger looking skin.
Despite struggling growth numbers and unemployment above historic averages, Americans spent close to $ 11 billion on cosmetic procedures in 2012. Although $ 6.7 billion was spent on surgical procedures, alternative procedures remain very popular. Americans spent $ 2 billion on injectable procedures; $ 1.8 billion on skin rejuvenation procedures; and over $ 483 million was spent on other nonsurgical procedures, such as laser hair removal and laser treatment of varicose and spider veins.
It is also important to meet with the doctor, preferably in person before the surgery. Dr. Jason Diamond reviews cosmetic goals, expectations and procedures with every patient before surgery. When meeting with a plastic surgeon, Dr. Diamond recommends that patients ask the following questions:

Diet Doc released improved hCG diet plans, specifically capable and custom tailored towards helping Americans lose belly fat safely and quickly. Prescription hCG treatments have been found, by their discoverer Dr. A. Simeons, to specifically reduce deposits of abnormal fat, the harmful fat stored in the thighs, hips, underarms, and belly. By prescribing hCG treatments to patients, Diet Doc is allowing this powerful weight loss hormone to take effect instantly on unsightly and unhealthy body fat, specifically in the toughest to target areas.
Once thought of as simply unsightly, belly fat has now been established as a sign of future health problems like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. A [study has linked visceral fat to increased triglycerides, which is known to lead to heart disease. Belly fat has thus become a medical indicator of certain health risks like high levels of triglycerides in the bloodstream, indicators of health risks such as cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and even certain types of cancer. Even people that are at a healthy overall weight, yet carry some excess weight around their mid-section have been found to be at a higher risk for diabetes. In order to target belly fat, or visceral fat, the recommended diet includes fiber rich fruits, green leafy vegetables, and lean proteins, while carbohydrates like breads and pastas are avoided.
With a prescription hCG diet plan from Diet Doc, dieters receive medical supervision while learning how to lose weight effectively and safely. Each patient receives an initial physician consultation before undergoing any treatments, after which an individualized hCG diet plan is developed based on the findings. The diet plan teaches clients how to get the nutrients needed for safe and fast weight loss, and how to target harmful belly fat with prescription hCG treatments and a customized nutrition plan.
In addition to powerful fast weight loss aids, Diet Doc designs patient specific nutrition plans for each individual, based on dietary needs and physician recommendations. Much of the diet foods offered by Diet Doc are high in antioxidants, known as super foods. With unlimited support, clients can contact a diet specialist 6 days a week to answer nutrition questions, receive motivation to stick with the diet, or evaluate weight loss progress. Our diet plan was designed to put the body in a state of ketosis, where it uses fat as well as the whole foods, consumed during our program, for fuel instead of the typical SAD (Standard American Diet) diet most have come to know. We found that by giving food a purpose rather than just consuming blindly, patients realize that you really are what you eat. Most come out of the program knowing that food is fuel and the type of fuel you consume will greatly affect the way you function, says Dr. Rao, Medical Director for Diet Doc.
Diet Doc recently developed a prescription only hCG diet plan that is clinically designed to help all patients lose belly fat without grueling exercise. Diet Doc is the nation's leader in prescription only, pure hCG weight loss plans, offering the most comprehensive and successful collection of prescription and non-prescription diet products and services. With a physician developed, individualized nutrition plan tailored to each client, focused on target areas of the body and combined with prescription hCG treatments, clients are finding it simple to lose belly fat.
For over a decade, Diet Doc has been producing the most effective weight loss, safely and at a fraction of the cost of expensive alternatives. Pricing plans are available to fit even the tightest budget, making weight loss affordable for anyone nationwide via Telemedicine, an advanced system allowing patients in remote areas consultation with physicians nationwide.

I am very excited and grateful that Great Body No Diet is making its North America debut at BookExpo America, said Racha Zeidan, author of Great Body No Diet. I have been overwhelmed at the response the book has been receiving. For the book to make its debut at BookExpo America alongside books by such authors as James Patterson, Chelsea Handler, Rick Riordan, and Diana Gabaldon is a humbling experience for a first time author.
Written in an easy to read style, Great Body No Diet offers a fresh perspective on how to achieve and maintain a healthy body. Zeidan realizes that losing weight and then keeping the pounds off means changing a persons mental approach to weight-loss and his or her habits with food and water in general. She realizes that cravings, unlike many diet programs, are natural, and offers an approach on how to indulge but still maintain a winning approach to weight balance. Great Body No Diet offers a life full of energy and free of calorie calculation, food restrictions, post-meal guilt, pills, pre-planned meals or weight-loss surgeries, and best yet; just as the title says, free of diets.
Racha Zeidan is a photographer and an author raised in the United Arab Emirates. She earned her Business Management degree from London's Webster University. She currently resides in Virginia with her husband.
