Vienna, Virginia (PRWEB) November 19, 2012

Noufal Haircolor Studio, the popular hair salon located in the Tysons Corner corridor, announced today its plans to begin franchising. The salon, which has been in business for more than 15 years, specializes in expert hair care to include color and Keratin treatments while also providing nail, makeup and waxing services. With a popular Northern Virginia destination already established for both men and women looking for experienced, award-winning stylists, owner Joey Noufal is eager to expand the brand and provide entrepreneurs with a chance to be a part of the Noufal Haircolor Studio family.


In the coming year, Noufal plans to open three to five franchise locations in DC, Maryland and Virginia. Entrepreneurs and franchisees can look forward to a hands-on accelerated learning process with Noufal helping at every step of the way. Joining the Noufal team will give franchisees access to their proven system for great customer retention, as well as exclusive discounts on salon use products and corporate support. Noufal plans to extensively train all front desk coordinators, shampoo assistants, managers and hair stylists to provide them with the knowledge needed to be successful. Franchisees will also have access to advancement and continuing education classes for all employees.


Weve had the pleasure of servicing the Washington elite over the last 15 years and we look forward to continuing that service over the coming years, said owner Joey Noufal. Investing in a Noufal Haircolor Studio is a low risk venture for entrepreneurs, given the brand recognition and community outreach weve engaged in over the last decade and a half for customer retention.

Most recently, Noufal created an oil system which includes 8 essential oils that franchise locations will use in all color services to enrich the color and health of their guests hair.


As the business has continued to grow and expand over the last decade, Joey has involved Noufal Haircolor Studio in the community around him, often donating haircuts and other spa treatments to benefit charities like the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). Earlier this year, Noufal Haircolor Studio participated in Cut for the Cure, an LLS campaign for which the salon donated an entire days worth of haircuts to help fight blood cancers.

Belcorp USA General Manager Recognized as One of the Top 20 Most Influential Women in the Direct Selling Industry

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) November 20, 2012

Direct Selling News recently ranked Belcorp USA General Manager, Mona Ameli, among the top 20 most influential women in the direct selling industry. This group of women were selected based on their leadership roles in companies that achieved the DSN Global 100 list and their abilities to guide the industry and foster growth through passionate vision and commitment.


One of the dominant forces driving Amelis achievements as head of the U.S. subsidiary of Belcorp, a Latin-based international direct selling giant, is her ardent support of womens empowerment and social and economic advancement. When prioritizing economic strategies for growth for Belcorp USA, she ranks gender and cultural diversity as the surest way to build a prosperous and sustainable future for its employees, distributors, and customers, as well as the community and economy of the San Francisco Bay area they call home. Belcorp USA is the only worlds top 10 direct selling company in the San Francisco Bay area.


There is no room for cultural or gender gaps at Belcorp USA. Some 75% of managerial positions are filled by women, in stark contrast to the gender gap still occupying most of corporate America. That is, in part, why Direct Selling News recently ranked Ameli among the top 20 most influential women in the direct selling industry.


Inviting diversity, in both gender and culture, into top level management teams not only expands opportunities for individuals, but also escalates corporate return on equity 53% on average, McKinsey Global Institute found among companies with the most diverse executive teams. Simply put, research backs what Belcorp knew and has practiced all along.


Diversityits our strength here at Belcorp USA. It is our point of differentiation, Mona Ameli, General Manager, says. Ameli twice immigrated to new lands, first from her native Iran as a young child and then again as a young adult from France to the United States.


As a woman of Middle Eastern origin, Amelis immigration allowed her to break free from gender limitations and restrictions. These personal experiences help guide Ameli in the fostering of an inclusive corporate environment that empowers women to fully engage in the new-world economy through diversity of culture and gender. While reduced availability might informally preclude women or mothers from reaching their full potential at other companies, Ameli says, I dont see it that way. These female managers deal with many of the same availability challenges as our distributors in the field the women we work for many are single mothers or work two jobs or care for an aging parent.


Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton made the economic case for The Participation Age and closing the gender gap at an international event in Belcorp USAs backyard in September 2011. The conclusion of international dialogue: Economic growth can only be realized through the empowerment of women and girls to fully participate in the global economy.


Close the gender gap, Ameli says, and its not just women who benefit. She sites a Goldman Sachs report stating Americas gross domestic product would increase 9% if barriers to female participation in the labor force were reduced.


Belcorps diverse and inclusive nature make it increasingly versatile, adaptive, and competitive as an employer in the San Francisco Bay area and as a direct selling career opportunity. Since January, Belcorp USAs employee base grew 40% in marketing, sales and finance. Ameli expects an additional 10% boost in sales and marketing before years end. The companys direct selling distributor base exploded some 180% since late 2010.


Im so glad we have a corporate environment that reflects the same inclusive values we advocate for in the direct selling industry. That harmony that Belcorp has created between the employee side and distributor side is appealing. It is seamless and genuine. Theres not a dichotomy between the two, Ameli says.


The essence of Belcorp USAs mission is empowering women and enhancing their opportunities. Often that is accomplished through direct selling careers and corporate employment, but Belcorp Foundation partners with San Franciscos First Graduate and Womens Initiative to advance the dreams of low-income and college-ready women who need assistance. Scholarships, job shadowing, internships, and entrepreneurial training help these women bridge the gap from where they are to where they want to be.


For Ameli, advancing opportunities for women and girls is a priority both professionally and personally. Through her successes and accolades she hopes to instill self-belief in young women and girls who come from different parts of the world, who may have an accent, a different look or way of dressing. Because of that, they might think theres no room for them. But I say there is room. I hope more companies will see diversity at all levels as one our countrys most amazing assets that can drive us to the top while we touch lives and positively impact our communities and society all around.

NAPW Hudson County, NJ Chapter Discussed Exciting, Upcoming Charitable/Networking Events Planned for 2012-2013


Garden City, NY (PRWEB) November 20, 2012

Members and guests of the NAPW Hudson County, NJ Local Chapter gathered on October 26th for a professional networking meeting. The group of professional women had plenty to discuss since the Chapter has a number of exciting charitable and networking events planned for 2012 through 2013. From feeding the homeless this Thanksgiving to holding its second annual Womens Networking Brunch on June 8th, the Chapter meeting was brimming with exciting news and events.


Before formerly starting the meeting, members and guests had refreshments and networked to build on how they could help one another. NAPW Hudson County, NJ Local Chapter President LaTrenda Ross then kicked off the event by enthusiastically welcoming the attendees, who included one new member RoseAnn Purdy and two new guests Sazzn Landa and Lori Wilson. After reading aloud the Chapters Mission Statement, LaTrenda addressed the crowd.


The NAPW Hudson County Chapter is a shining example of women working together for their Chapter, its members, guests, and the community, she said. We are thriving and doing tremendously and we are enthusiastic about working not only on our events this year but on our 2013 projects, as well!


Before a discussion ensued about upcoming events, The Chapter President announced the need to fill three Chapter Board positions: President and Vice President Event Coordinators; Secretary, and Photographer/Media Relations Specialist.


Chapter members and guests then began to brainstorm and discuss potential projects including an event to be held January 12th, the Hudson County Chapters Beautiful Inside and Out Spa Makeover Day for the Hoboken Homeless Shelter Womens Group.


The planning stages are underway for this charitable endeavor. Delores Daniels, our acting President Events Planner, is hard at work coordinating this event, said LaTrenda.


Members and guests were asked to get involved by donating their unwanted and unused makeup that perhaps they dont need or is the wrong color, and to ask relatives, friends, places they shop, and makeup artists to donate their makeup to give to the women as gifts at this upcoming event.


This past June, the Hudson County, NJ Local Chapter honored four women at its first Womens Networking Brunch. Monique Smith, Owner of the hair salon Monique Techniques, was one of the women honored. Every year, her salon hosts a Thanksgiving Dinner for the Homeless and she asked members and guests for their help in making the event a success. The response from the group was overwhelming; five women signed up to participate. More volunteers are always welcome. The hours are anywhere from 9:00am to 2:00pm, Thursday, November 22nd. This includes setting up and serving dinner.


We also discussed our second Womens Networking Brunch that will be held next year on June 8th. We talked about honoring six rather than four women, said LaTrenda.


The Chapter President said next years event needs a theme and also asked members and guests to suggest names for the honorees.


For our Womens Networking Brunch, we want to honor extraordinary women who are working hard to improve her own life and/or the lives of women, children, and her community, said LaTrenda.


The Chapter is also planning two events in April 2013 including the first-ever Yoga and Mediation Mind, Body, and Soul Member and Guest Day as well as the Chapters 2nd Annual Back to School Backpack Drive.


This year, our Backpack Drive was a huge success and we need to make it bigger by having a goal of collecting 150 backpacks to distribute to two or three nonprofit organizations, said LaTrenda. The backpacks will go to children in Pre-K through eighth grade.


The Chapter President had one more request of the members and guests and wanted to discuss something that had been on her mind. She smiled and asked the women to put on their thinking caps for the possibility to fit one more important event into the Chapters nearly-filled calendar.


I would love to hold a Girls Conference, an event where the Hudson County Chapter could help to empower young girls, said LaTrenda. It doesnt have to be large, just something to get us started with our young women in the community.


As always, the professional women of the Hudson County Chapter have made some remarkable accomplishments and the Chapter President shared with members and guests some exciting news about Chapter member Angela McKnight.


Congratulations to Angela McKnight, Executive Director/Founder of AngelaCARES, Inc., on her one year anniversary, announced LaTrenda.


AngelaCARES, Inc. is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization based in Jersey City, NJ and was incorporated October 20th, 2011. AngelaCARES motto is A Passion to Care. The Ability to Help. AngelaCARES, Inc.s vision is to encourage a caring and helpful world and its mission is to serve as an advocate and support system for senior citizens, a support system for senior caregivers, and a mentor to the youth (educating and empowering them to volunteer). It is committed to strengthening communities by enhancing the quality of life through empowering seniors, their caregivers, and the youth. Please visit angelacares.org for more information.


LaTrenda also announced that to show solidarity and promote the Hudson County Chapter, the Chapter is planning to have Chapter T-shirts available to members and guests.


There is nothing like having togetherness to attract members and guests and to let people know about our Chapter and the wonderful things we are doing, said the Chapter President. I am urging all members and guests who would like to purchase a Chapter T-shirt to send in your order to angelamcknight(at)gmail.com, including an extra $ 2.00 to offset the (logo) one-time set up fee.


Prices for the T-shirts, which may be customized with a members name, are as follows and payments will be collected at the next Chapter meeting: $ 25 to create the template (logo) one time set up fee; $ 8 per each T-shirt (includes a T-shirt and the printing of a logo on the shirt); $ 15 per T-shirt (includes a T-shirt, printing of logo, and customized name).


Lastly, the meeting ended with all extending their best wishes to members who were celebrating their birthdays.


How can we end a Hudson County Local Chapter meeting without celebrating birthdays? Happy Birthday to Margaret Laborde and Jeannie Adarraga! said LaTrenda. Our door prize raffle, a $ 20 Visa gift card, was won by no other than Jeannie Adarraga our birthday girl. Congratulations to all!


Members and guests in attendance were Rev. Pamela Loving-Felts, Angela Mcknight, Betty Rentas, Jyoti Nebhnani, Glenda Salley Perkins, Dolores Daniels, Eboney Rouse, Jeannie Adarraga, and Chiffon Abney.

Kenneth & Co. is also donating almost 16,000 Ken Paves SelfHelp hair care products to AmeriCares to be distributed to emergency shelters and distribution centers in Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey as part of their Family Emergency Kits, designed to help keep people clean, and under the current circumstances, staying clean also means staying healthy.


With the impact of Hurricane Sandy followed by a noreaster, and people losing both jobs and homes, we felt it was important to support those affected by this disaster, says Eddie Catalfamo, CEO. Personal care products are a necessity, not a luxury, and the philosophy of the Ken Paves SelfHelp brand centers around the importance of taking care of yourself. We are fortunate to be able to donate $ 1.5 million in retail value of products to help people in need as they put their lives back together, thanks to the care networks of both World Vision and AmeriCares.


In moments of upset, personal hygiene brings dignity. It is my honor and responsibility to support this donation to World Vision and AmeriCares. I am personally inspired by the work of both organizations, says Ken Paves.

Wellness Firm Aids Owners in Determining Proper Pet Nutrition


Bakersfield, California (PRWEB) November 20, 2012

With many pet owners unable to afford proper veterinary care, California health and wellness retailer Spirit Detox (http://www.spiritdetox.com) is aiding owners in determining proper nutrition for their beloved animals.


"Many veterinarians and animal specialists correlate poor pet food quality to an increase in the preponderance of genetic illness, weak offspring, pet skin conditions, and pet allergies, Spirit Detox owner Albert Milligan states, adding that many of these conditions equate to costly vet bills.


The group also points out that most commercially packaged pet food often includes artificial ingredients in highly dangerous levels. For example, studies have linked top ingredients in most dry pet foods phosphoric acid, glyceryl monostearate and propylene glycol to cancer causing properties.


Much of the ingredients in prepackaged pet foods contain the remnants of crops and meats exposed to pesticides, herbicides, genetically modified ingredients and synthetic hormones, which may or may not provide adequate nutrition for optimal pet health, says Milligan. By finding a pet food that contains as many natural ingredients as possible, many health problems can be eliminated in these animals.


Pet owners, Spirit Detox concludes, can easily tell if their cat or dog is suffering from poor nutrition or a reaction to elements of their food. Examples of possible symptoms include incessant itching (not due to fleas or other parasites), hair loss, vomiting, gas, loose stools, and/or constant licking.


Spirit Detox goes on to state that supplementation can greatly help keep animals healthy, as well.


To help pet owners decide on a pet supplement they can trust, Spirit Detox also offers their own line of organic pet supplementation products. Nutra-min for Pets is available in 2-pound, 4-pound, and 8-pound packages. The mixture contains a pet grade dose of living clay, known to benefit both humans and animals alike. The product is safe for dogs, cats, horses, and birds.


Spirit Detox is dedicated to emotional and physical wellness, with a commitment using all-natural healing and enhancing products to promote the health and wellness of people, without damaging the earth or its creatures. Their line of products includes natural detoxing products for people and animals at fair prices. To learn more visit http://www.spiritdetox.com.

Dr. Robert Langdon of Guilford, CT, to Appear on WTNHs Connecticut Style to Discuss Scar-Less Breast Reduction Procedure


Guilford, CT (PRWEB) November 21, 2012

Robert Langdon, MD, Board-Certified Cosmetic Surgeon and Dermatologist and Medical Director at The Langdon Center for Laser & Cosmetic Surgery will be on WTNHs Connecticut Style news program to discuss his scar-less breast reduction procedure.


Dr. Langdon states, Patients who have long suffered from overly large breasts are delighted to learn that they can significantly reduce breast size without surgery. I perform this liposuction procedure with only tiny incisions that do not even require stitches.


According to Dr. Langdon, the Scar-Less breast reduction is done in the office, with only a local anesthetic, and patients are back to their normal routines within days.

Because larger breasts are mostly composed of fat tissue, a modified liposuction technique can result in significant size reduction. Tumescent anesthetic solution is used to thoroughly (and painlessly) numb the breasts. Then, Dr. Langdon performs liposuction using tiny micro-cannulas throughout the breast. The micro-cannulas are blunt, tube-like instruments that Dr. Langdon gently moves back and forth within the numbed area. Recovery is rapid after the procedure. The small skin incisions heal with little or no scarring, in contrast to the significant scars that result from conventional breast reduction surgery. The breasts contract after the procedure, resulting in a lift effect.


I look forward to discussing this procedure on WTNH in December. This is a great way to spread the word that breast reduction need not involve invasive surgery and a long recovery period, said Dr. Langdon.


About Robert Langdon, MD:


Dr. Langdon, a graduate of the University of Oregon Medical School, completed his residency in dermatology at Yale-New Haven Hospital. He is board certified by the American Board of Dermatology and the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery. Dr. Langdon has published numerous scientific articles in medical journals as well as book chapters in surgical textbooks. In addition, he is the author of "Understanding Cosmetic Laser Surgery," a book written for consumers to help them better understand lasers and cosmetic surgery.

I was speaking with some American dancers, who told me that back home there are model academies where you get trained in how to walk the catwalk , how to pose, how to find work as a model, how to do your hair and makeup for castings etc and they told me there was nowhere like this in the UK. When asked what makes the school successful, King said We care about our students. We are successful because we offer honest nurturing advice to our students. Our staff are experienced and first class.


The London School of Modelling featured in a hit TV series, Models, Misfits & Mayhem on ITV2 in 2011. Visit our website to find out more.

Hair Loss Expert Dr. Alan J. Bauman Launches Nations First Certified Hair Coach Training Program for Hair Stylists and Salons


Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) November 21, 2012

One of the first conversations hair loss sufferers have about their concerns isnt with their doctor, significant other or friend - more often than not, its with their trusted barber or stylist. With that in mind, internationally renowned hair loss expert Dr. Alan J. Bauman recently launched the countrys first Bauman Certified Hair Coach program to teach hair stylists and salons how to help consumers by catching hair loss early, tracking it, and understanding what they can do to fight it.


ABC television news station WPBF Channel 25 in West Palm Beach recently reported on Baumans new Hair Coach program and its innovative solutions for salon owners, stylists and consumers. Watch the TV news report: http://youtu.be/E7UIBTszuNg.


Over the past 15 years, Ive treated thousands of men and women suffering from hair loss, said Dr. Bauman, founder of Bauman Medical Group in Boca Raton and a board-certified hair restoration physician.

By the time hair loss is visible to the untrained eye, youve already lost 50 percent of your hair in that area. Early hair loss intervention is key, which is why our specially trained, compassionate and caring hair stylists and salons are so important - theyre the first line of defense to help men and women catch it early.


The Bauman Certified Hair Coach program is a day-long interactive, hands-on training class that teaches cosmetologists, salon owners and other beauty professionals how to identify the early signs of hair loss and gather scientific and highly accurate hair measurements with the new HairCheck
