[01:13.67]What sort of hair-style is best for me?
[01:18.52]That depends first on the shape of your face.
[01:23.59]Is it round,square,long,oval or heart-shaped?
[01:32.13]Short styles usually suit round faces.
[01:37.88]They make the face look longer,especially if there are curls on top.
[01:44.65]Longer styles suit square faces.
[01:49.69]They hide the angles of the face.
[01:54.23]Your hair-style depends,too,on your life-style.

[02:06.46]Connie says I need long hair that I can tie up when I perform.

[02:33.78]Keith 'I work on cars in my father's garage.
[02:40.55]My long hair was always in my eyes and face.
[02:46.71]Connie suggests my hair should be short enough to keep tidy.'
[02:53.19]How can I keep my hair healthy?
[02:58.55]Eat a balanced diet and get plenty of exercise.
[03:05.03]You will shine and so will your hair.
[03:10.67]Also look after your hair at home.
[03:15.53]City air is dirty and polluted,
[03:19.97]so it would be wise for you to shampoo your hair frequently.
[03:25.53]Here are some of the things you need for effective hair care at home.
[03:31.77]Shampoo and conditioner
[03:35.93]Choose a shampoo that suits your type of hair(i.e.,oily,dry or normal hair).
[03:44.99]Apply it after wetting your hair with warm water.
[03:50.45]After shampooing,squeeze out the extra water
[03:56.02]and apply a conditioner to make it soft,smooth and shiny.
[04:03.17]Brush and comb
[04:06.33]These should be soft enough not to damage your hair.
[04:11.51]Before shampooing,brush your hair thoroughly to loosen any dirt.
[04:18.46]After washing out the shampoo,apply the conditioner in the same way,
[04:25.72]and then comb it into your hair so that every hair is covered.
[04:32.27]After shampooing,dry your hair gently with a towel before using the hair-drier.
[04:40.53]Always set it at a low temperature and hold it at least 10cm from your hair.

[08:19.36]Some people have a lot of hair all over their body
[08:24.03]while others have little body hair.
[08:27.79]And some people have no hair on the top of their head:they are bald.
[08:34.04]The important thing,though,is--are you happy with the hair you do have?
[08:39.92]If not,what hair problems do you have?
[08:44.28]Do you know how to deal with your worries
[08:48.25]You certainly realize that your problems may not just be with the hair.
[08:54.00]They may be in your body as well.
[08:58.25]Therefore,the most important thing to do is to check your diet
[09:03.61]and way of life first.
[09:06.95]Lack of protein and iron can secretly for your hair of its shiny beauty,
[09:13.01]and so can the stress in your life.
[09:17.37]But if it is not the food that you eat or the pressure that you have,
[09:22.63]then think about the way you treat your hair.
[09:26.67]Too much perming and coloring can be harmful.
[09:31.25]Also the overuse of electrical appliances such as hair-dryers
[09:37.10]can damage your otherwise beautiful hair.
[09:41.25]Last but not least,be sure to choose the right products for yourself.
[09:47.52]A sensible mind is the key to healthy hair.

[09:56.43]This is the skin care tips and fill in the missing words.
[10:01.50]Before you start your skin care,
[10:05.34]examine your skin first and think about its type.
[10:10.19]Do you have oily skin,dry skin or combination skin?
[10:16.86]Select skin protection products carefully.
[10:21.30]Always use products that are suitable for your skin type.
[10:26.47]Don't use soap to clean your face.
[10:30.41]Soap can dry out the surface of your skin.
[10:34.96]Wash your face each morning and night.
[10:38.80]Start the day with a clean and fresh face.
[10:43.66]And you should clean your face at the end of the day
[10:48.72]to remove dirt and pollution
[10:52.49](and make-up if you wear it) from your skin.
