I always acknowledged that hair loss would happen to me when I am ageing but never thought that it would happen to me at such an early age. Shortly before my thirtieth birthday, I noticed that my hairline was receding. I couldn’t believe I was losing my hair. I even started balding on the rear of my head.

For the first time in my life, I felt that age has eventually caught up. I felt like the best years of my life were behind me. I even ceased seeing women. My love life was non-existent. There was one girl I had been seeing nonchalantly and even though I liked her, I just stopped returning her phone calls. I realised that I hadn’t found the woman of my dreams with a full head of hair so there was no way I was going to find someone with my growing bald spot. I was too demoralized to even try having a loving kinship.

Hair loss changed me from a self-assured, extroverted guy into a depressed loner. I was very assured to address the issue and get the problem fixed. I tried lots of hair loss treatments that are accessible over the counter. Nothing that I bought from the chemist worked and trust me, I tried them all. After that, I just stopped trying for a while. It was a real low point in my life. I even stopped going out with my friends, I was so deflated.

Luckily, one night a acquaintance dragged me out of the house for a few drinks. The first thing he found out about me was my mood, he knew that the hair loss has affected how I felt. He mentioned to me about the hair loss studio in the city. My friend had gone there for hair loss treatments and had been impressed with the results. I was even more impressed. My friend had a full head of hair and there was no sign of hair loss. He made me promise to give them a try and I agreed.

I could not have been happier with the hair loss studio recommended to me. After just a few treatments, I had a full head of hair again. The hair loss studio not only helped me regained my hair but also my self-assurance.

Some fear that the breast implants will not last and they will begin to leak. Although this does happen, it is a very rare phenomenon. Most women who have gone through breast enlargement surgery didn’t experience any problems with their silicone breast implants. You will never have to replace your breast implants unless you come across a problem with them. Most breast implant replacements are made because the patient wants a new shape or size for her breasts. Although leakage and asymmetry are also among the reasons, they are very rare when compared with the conscious requests of the patients to modify their breast implants.

While the inframammary incision is the most popular, other types of breast enlargement incisions should be considered. The crease incision has the huge advantage of leaving a minute scar that is barely noticeable. A transaxillary breast incision gives surgeons less control on where to implant the silicone. Incisions around the areola heal faster, but the abundance of nerve endings in the area made many surgeons feel that changes in tactile sensations might be present. There are various breast enlargement procedures available, but silicone breast implants are still the number one favorite. In the United States alone, over 200,000 women may have breast augmentation surgery each year. This cosmetic surgery procedure has become very safe and convenient for most women who desire larger breasts. There are a few regulations concerning breast implants in the US presented below:

Here is a set of regulations passed by the FDA in regards to silicone breast implants:

1. Replacement or revision of saline implants
2. Tuberous breast deformity
3. Congenital breast reconstruction
4. Breast augmentation to the opposite breast for symmetry
5. Augmentation with a breast lift (mastopexy)
6. Severe asymmetries of the breast
7. Breast cancer reconstruction

You have to be at least 18 to be eligible for breast enlargement surgery. There are some special cases when a cosmetic doctor may refuse to perform surgery on a patient: if the patient has certain medical conditions or diseases that may affect wound healing, the plastic surgeon might not give her green light for breast enlargement.

Considering the daring styles of swimwear many people, both male and female, are wearing today, no doubt keeping bikini lines in check is an important issue.

Even for those of us who don’t wear the more daring styles, making sure pubic hairs are not public hairs is a concern when getting ready for the pool or beach.

It’s not a simple matter of tucking your pubic hairs inside the legs of your suit, because they’re bound to escape. So it becomes a question of how best to remove the hairs at the bikini lines all together.

While many people may elect to use a depilatory lotion/cream or do a bikini wax at home or at a salon, shaving bikini lines is still the method most often used.

Now you may be thinking that the reason some people choose depilatories or waxing over shaving their bikini lines is because these alternative methods to shaving don’t irritate this sensitive skin. Truth is - That’s not the truth. At least not for most people.

If you speak with people who use a depilatory, (and they’re honest), they’ll tell you:

1) They’re messy

2) They smell pretty bad

3) They’re inconvenient - Because you have to wait for them to work, you have to be somewhere to be able to wash them off and they don’t always completely work, leaving you with patches of hair

And, most importantly -

4) The harsh chemicals more often than not leave your skin looking red and feeling raw, as if it’s just been burned, which basically it has …

And if you speak with people who choose waxing, (and they’re honest), they’ll tell you:

1) It’s messy

2) It smells pretty bad

3) It’s inconvenient - Because you have to wait for it to work, you have to be somewhere to be able to wash off the residue, it doesn’t always completely work with the first application so you have to do it again, and oh yes - IT HURTS! Even if you have it done at a salon, all of the above applies

And, most importantly -

4) The harsh chemicals more often than not leave your skin looking red and feeling raw, as if every hair has just been yanked out, which basically they have …

So - We’re back to shaving bikini lines.

The bad news is that most people who are shaving their bikini lines basically just grab a wet razor and have at it. So it’s no wonder that their skin looks red and feels raw, as if it’s just been scraped, which basically it has …

And even worse - Because bikini lines are areas that maintain a good deal of moisture and receive a great deal of friction, ingrown hairs become a major problem.

The good news is, anyone can learn that there’s a right way of shaving pubic hairs from the bikini lines and, perhaps even more important, that there is a much better tool than a wet razor for shaving this sensitive area.

Shaving your bikini lines doesn’t have to drive you bonkers!

All you need to do now is your own research about how to safely shave your bikini lines along with using a shaving device that’s better designed for bikini lines.

Studies have shown that eighty percent, of all males and
females, fit into standard categories of strengths and
weaknesses. Thus, it is comfortable, convenient, and or best
fits their abilities for them to follow traditional teachings
for their roles. If where you are within the eighty percent
bracket, this article may not be for you.

Though, if you are in the other twenty percent category,
likely, your mate will be too. In such cases, a marriage works
much better when couples stop trying to fill standard
expectations and carry the roles God best equipped each for.
However God created you; He did not make a mistake.

Having once experienced an abusive marriage and another kind of
abuse in the church, thought to be the wrong gender to serve
God, I had great need to ‘know’ God’s intent for submission and
obedience.

First, in an abusive relationship, obeying means things like ~
if you open a two liter of pop while the mate it away, some of
the fiz could possibly fizzle out and who knew that would make
them angry!? Though, you can expect to find yourself curled into
a corner, in the fetal position, protecting as many body parts
as possible.

And, when the church tells wives to obey, the message is that
this is what God is like.

Then, when God’s calling was contrary to authority’s
acceptance, it would eat at my soul. God did not stop calling,
as He did not change His mind (Ro. 11:29). To hear the cries of
others in need and to not be able to do anything about it was as
much torment as being held captive/prisoner … sometimes, like it
was happening to me all over again.

I had great need to ‘know’ and as a result of that search,
these are among my findings.

In cases of submission …

“Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God,” Ep.
5:21.

“I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that
it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted
themselves to the ministry of the saints,) That ye submit
yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and
laboureth,” I Co. 16:15-16.

“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit
in the Lord,” Co. 3:18.

We are all called to submission, one to another, to husbands;
to everyone that helps and labors for God, regardless of gender.

Being that it is impossible to obey everyone at the same time,
we can conclude that to submit is not necessarily to obey. For,
if the husband were submitting to one another, in theory, he
would also have to obey his wife. Since that is not a supported
doctrine, either the above verses are in error or we
misunderstood the meaning of submitting.

As I have found submission to mean, it is to listen to the need
of another’s heart. Then, whenever it becomes necessary to alter
my plan in order to meet their need, their true need should come
first. In such, we should all be healers of one another’s soul;
including our mate’s. We are to be willing vessels, allowing the
love of God to flow through us as often as God shows us a need.

People’s wants and needs are different. We can know which is a
true need by following God’s example. Listen not to one’s words
but to the cry of their heart. Our want should step out of the
way for another’s ‘need’.

“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit
in the Lord.” Co. 3:18.

Whatever you believe the word ’submit’ means, consider this;
“Wives, submit yourselves … as it is fit in the Lord.” Co.
3:18. Notice the verse does not say, “Wives, submit yourselves
unto your own husbands, or you are not fit in the Lord.” It says
to submit to the extent it “is fit in the Lord.”

So, if one’s husband requests them to sleep with another man,
is it fit in the Lord? Of course not. So herein is, at the very
least, is an example of exception.

Obedience …

What we are to ‘obey’ is spiritual leadership (whether one
calls it submission or by another name). When someone is
spiritually leading, we will be able to hear the Spirit and know
that is God, it is Him speaking and it is fit in Him, as the
Spirit can not lie.

In such cases, we are not worshipping our husband. Our
submission is to the Lord. The same would be true, whomever the
Lord is speaking through. When the Spirit touches our spirit, it
is God. (Though, if we quench the Spirit before He has had a
chance to speak, we might miss God’s best.)

So, if that be the case, what could the following verses mean?

“For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and
shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the
church,” Ep. 5:31-32.

Paul just said he was referring to Christ and the church.
Theologians agree.

A Great Mystery …

A Bishop is to be a husbandman, married to his church; just
like Christ is married to the church. In turn, a church (as a
wife) is to submit to the leading and or needs of their Bishop;
to the extent it is fit in the Lord.

As one researches the word ‘woman’, scripture gives it several
additional symbolic meanings.

“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God
created he him; male and female created he them,” Ge. 1:27.
“Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called
their name Adam, in the day when they were created,” Ge. 5:2.

Male and female were called Adam; not Eve, not woman.

“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor
free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in
Christ Jesus,” Ga. 3:28. “That there should be no schism in the
body; but that the members should have the same care one for
another,” Co. 12:25.

Often, when we are reading of husbands and wives, it is in
reference to the church. Either we believe that, or we believe
the Bible contradicts. God is no respecter of persons. And when
we are told that He is, it does not come from God.

Whenever we follow anyone contrary to God’s leading, we have
become a sinful Adam (male or female); whose choice became other
than God. However, that is not to say we quarrel and fight. For,
God is able to show us when our wants are in error, just as He
is able to speak to our mates.

Only when God calls us to take a stand contrary to our mates
are we to stand in the right way and for the right reason;
striving to live peaceably (as with all men) but letting God be
our only god. And, in following God, He will teach us how to
stand in the Spirit. Therein, others can also know it is truth.

But in the case where a mate is not interested in things of
God, we have been made bishops of our own souls; with our own
accountability to God. Whatever it be, God will guide our every
step.

Eve was the mother of all living. Paul referred to himself as a
spiritual father.

“And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he
which made them at the beginning made them male and female,” Mt.
19:4.

Since mothers and fathers (spiritual teachers) can not get it
right …

“For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall
cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?” Mt. 19:5.

“It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of
God,” John 6:45. “I in them, and thou in me, that they may be
made perfect in one,” John 17:23.

“For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your
body, and in your spirit, which are God’s. Ye are bought with a
price; be not ye the servants of men,” I Co. 6:20; 7:23.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you
free,” John 8:32. “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye
shall be free indeed.” John 8:36.

“But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God,
ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life,”
Ro. 6:22. “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body,
whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and
have been all made to drink into one Spirit,” I Co. 12:13.

“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor
free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in
Christ Jesus,” Ga. 3:28. “Stand fast therefore in the liberty
wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again
with the yoke of bondage,” Ga. 5:1.

“As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of
maliciousness, but as the servants of God,” I Pe. 2:16.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that
needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth,”
II Ti. 2:15.

Do we believe God or teachings of men? God word does not
contradict.
