Un-box yourself…

We had to delete the unboxing post because a porn site got hold of it. Hey, to each his own, but here at Bewitched, we have a responsibility to beautify, enlighten, and un-box. As for your own private life, do whatever makes you happy, as long as no one is hurt. We’re big fans of chemistry.

The Geo Palette illuminates and unboxes the hair industry by coloring on geometric planes instead of vertically, culminating in hair color that is revolutionary. Come in and try it. You’ll be delighted and transformed!

We are.

Scammed by a crying boy? He’s not your grandson.

Here at Bewitched, we want to protect and beautify our clients. Recently, a lovely lady was scammed by a crying boy, her supposed grandson, on the telephone, imploring first his grandfather and then his grandmother, to wire him $3000 to get him out of a jam in Spain. “Don’t tell my parents,” he begged them.

And they didn’t. The young man gave grandma the phone number for the “Spanish Consulate”, except that it was a continuation of the scam. It seems that the consulate needed another $3000 for the “boy’s” trial and airfare home. Our client wired the money.

A sobbiing young man can render any no-nonsense person emotionally vulnerable. It can also hide the timbre of his real voice.

We told our client to forgive herself. No one had died. Only her ego and her pocket were damaged. She couldn’t fault herself for loving someone.

Here at Bewitched, the flagship salon for the Geo Palette, we’re here for you. We give out tissues, condolences, and tender loving care in the form of great hair color.

Go to www.geopalette.com to see our results.

Call us at 516 374-1490 to schedule an appointment.

Tissues and compliments are free, (and bagels on Fridays and Saturdays!)  JC

Fabulous fur and in your forties? Not.

An attractive friend of mine told me a story about meeting a young woman in an elevator at a fancy club. Upon seeing my friend and her gal pal dressed in their finery, she said: “Fabulous fur, and in your forties!”

My friend, over sixty, was taken aback until she realized that anyone over, say, thirty-five, morphed into a time zone simply marked “older”. What was intended as flattery took on a whole other meaning…I am a young thing, and you are not in my world.

But here at Bewitched, we revel in being beautiful at every age. Come in for the Geo Palette, revolutionary hair color far surpassing the conventional highlight, or get a three-tiered transformation, rendering difficult hair silky and manageable for months. Our clients attest to the fact that once they are paletted, they never go back. And we have testimonials thanking us for the their new three-tiered gnarly hair freedom!

Go to www.geopalette.com for results, or call us at 516 374-1490 for an appointment.

Our motto: gorgeous, at every age. JC

Barbie Dolls come alive! Nope, it’s Rock Star Wives

Okay ladies. Some of you can sing, some of you can dance, some of you know how to diet…(how else do you keep that thin?)

But with all your accomplishments, do you really need to look like a cartoon character…Jessica Rabbit to be exact…to please your rock star husbands? And why do you pitch your voices higher than their normal register into a little girl goo goo ga dialect that makes me squirm?

I admire you, I really do. The road is tough, however well-heeled it may be. But what measures will you have to take to stay youthful, thin, curvaceous, wrinkle-free, so that your husbands won’t trade you in for a younger model? Freeze yourselves?

I hope I’m wrong, and that they want to grow old with you. That they’ll caress the wrinkles that grace your face, and not cry out for more botox and face lifts at the young age of 30. That they’ll rebuff the advances of nubile groupies who trade favors for fame. That they’ll reward your endurance with kindness and monogamy.

But the entertainment industry ranks high in divorce, and society wants your boys to stay young and bold and virile, with a girl on each arm.

So stay strong. Lower your register. And reward yourself with the Geo Palette, revolutionary color that your husbands will love. More important, you will.

When did you last cry at the movies?

I saw the new Harry Potter the other day, and, SPOILER  ALERT, a particular character dies towards the end of the movie. I was unmoved, just a tad sad.

I also thought that as much as I enjoyed the movie, parts of it were reminiscent of Lord of the Rings…like the locket around the neck affecting the characters negatively.

But a little girl was absolutely SOBBING her eyes out, and her mother was trying to comfort, and shush her, as the sobs became wailing.

My crying was unstoppable when I was a little girl. The movie? The Swan. The handsome poor teacher leaves his pupil, despite their love. I cried for days. I wonder if my separation anxiety has to do with the damned movie?

For happiness, bliss, joy, and new found confidence, get your hair colored with the Geo Palette at its’ flagship salon, Bewitched Salon in Woodmere, NY.  Go to our website, www.geopalette.com for results. Or call us for an appointment at 516 374-1490. No tears, no sobbing, compliments galore.

Low self esteem: why I think I have it…

So I get dressed in the morning in the outfit that I’ve planned in my head the night before. Funky tights ala Betsy Johnson. A black pencil skirt cinched at the waist with a wide belt. My faux diamond necklace. My new way too expensive concealer which hides the bags under my eyes. A bold red lip, very little makeup on my eyes. (I remember to emphasize either the eyes or the lips, rarely both.)

I check out my reflection in the long mirror in the hallway.

I look good. I feel attractive. Heads will turn.

And not a single person compliments me all day. How can this be? And why does it mean that I will never wear that particular ensemble again?

I hate to say it, I really do. But I think it means I have low self-esteem.

Or that I need another person’s stamp of approval before I’m sure of my own sense of fashion.

Of course, it may mean that I look SO good that I intimidate people. I’ll never know, because I’m already stuffing the outfit in the back of the closet to gather dust.

For high self-esteem that will never be questioned, come to Bewitched Salon in Woodmere, New York for our revolutionary color, the Geo Palette. You will leave us feeling like James Cagney in one of his old movies…On top of the world! (I think he’s talking to his mother, and is about to burn to death, so this vision might not be particularly relevant.)

But you’ll be on fire! How’s that?

See our results at www.geopalette.com or call us for an appointment at 516 374-1490.

You’ll never question how good you look again.

Look older than your age? Change your hair color.

Ask any great professional about hair color as we get older, and we’re told…”Go lighter and brighter!”

Hair that’s too dark accentuates the lines and wrinkles. Too light, and we look washed out.

Here at Bewitched Salon, we say, “Go lighter and brighter AND GET THE GEO PALETTE!” There is something about the subtlety and richness of the system’s color that takes at least a decade off our age!

And there is nothing more life-affirming than feeling (and looking) beautiful!

Look for our results at www.geopalette.com. Call us at 516 374-1490 to make an appointment.

Find the fountain of youth with the Geo Palette.

Advice? Free. Fabulous color? Priceless!

Guess what? Men favor the face over the body…

When it comes to a long term relationship, studies say, men care more about the face than the body.

A new study claims that participants had the option of looking at either the head or body, and were asked to relate their importance. Apparently, it depended on intent. If the male was told to consider the person as a long term partner, he chose the face.

If it was a fling, he chose the body.

Which leads us to believe, at Bewitched Salon, that if you want a long term relationship, you had better come and get our revolutionary color, the Geo Palette, (see www.geopalette.com for results, or our Three-tiered Transformation, a day of beauty that turns difficult hair into beautiful tresses with our O*Mai curl softening, Geo Palette, and keratin treatment.

Want a long term relationship? Well, your face is important…and your hair is the crown!

Call us at 516 374-1490 for an appointment. We can’t find you a date…be we WILL make you look great!

Warning: Annoying Advice!

Wake up depressed? I did.

So I jazzed myself up. Lace stockings. A pretty top. Toffee colored lipstick. High heels.

Added raisins to my oatmeal. Heated up milk to make the coffee creamy. Made an interesting salad so that I wouldn’t eat too much for lunch which would add to my doldrums.

Made myself focus on the autumnal oranges and fiery reds decking the trees on the way to work. Beautiful.

Smiled a few times in the car mirror to rev up my endorphins.

I felt better!

And now I’m about to watch a new client get the Geo Palette, our revolutionary color/cut system that is transforming hair. Her happiness will make me happy, too!

Come and try it. It will lift any depression and add the most amazing color to your life.
