I was watching a beautiful blond walk past the salon when I happened to glance at a male who shall not be named, craning his neck to have a look.

I laughed, and he laughed, too. “She could use a Palette,” he said, not sheepishly at all.

“Run after her,” I told him, but he behaved decorously and settled his neck back into place.

But I’m here to tell you that if you do get your hair colored with the Geo Palette Hair System, necks will be craning, heads

will be turning, and you won’t be insulted because they will be looking at your hair.

Come to Bewitched at 956 Broadway, Woodmere, NY for a consultation.

Call us at 516 374-1490 for an appointment. Get the Geo Palette for glorious summer color.

Ashley, our latest bachelorette, needs to explore her low self esteem.  We witness Bentley telling us, “I’m going to make Ashley cry tonight,” and he does. He wishes she was Emily, the winning blond from last season, confirming Ashley’s own fears.

“She’s not my type,” he tells the camera. Flash forward to Ashley after Bentley goes home, leaving behind his famous dot dot dot…”you never know” torturing her well into the next episode. A wreck under a blanket.

“He’s just not that into you?” doesn’t register. She hasn’t read the book, or seen the movie, or examined the evidence, for that matter. She “feels a connection,” and has Bentley the villain, invited back so that she can torture herself (and us) some more.

Ashley had a makeover, and she looks great. But the makeover has to start from within, doesn’t it? Perhaps the Geo Palette Color System would have given her that boost, that edge, that zap of self confidence so that she could truly kick Bentley from Seattle to the curb (with enthusiasm.) Or maybe, a good shrink should follow her fabulous hair color.

Get the Geo Palette. You won’t be a pushover, a door mat, or a whining baby. You’ll be gorgeous, and everyone will know it. Make an appointment at Bewitched: 516 374-1490

When I get mad, a colleague of mine says I remind her of the Countess. “Go back to your cabinet, witch,” comes to mind, a remark the Countess recently sent straight to Alex McCord’s heart on their Moroccan trip.  Okay, I admit that I’m prone to giving a quick jab myself, and sailing out the door.

Ramona recently became a basket case, unable to spar with the loud and louder Jill, and reduced to sobs while moaning, “She’s not listening to me,” over and over. Not my kind of sparring.

Sonya gets nuttier and nuttier, and tends to follow in the Countess’s footsteps, waving a hand dismissively, and fluttering off.

Kelly hates any confrontation at all, calling Alex’s anger “inauthentic” several times in a row, interspersed with “STOP! STOP!” Alex is reduced to looked bug-eyed, reminding us of Ramona’s famous runway walk.

If Jill rants, Cindy sulks. “These women are nuts!” she exclaimed the other day. You joined them, baby.

Come to Bewitched Salon for anger management by coloring your hair with the Geo Palette, our fabulous new system for coloring hair! We have vibrant reds that surpass Jill’s color, soft diffused blonds that would benefit Alex’s new modeling career, a range of color that would enhance Kelly’s image, rich classy browns that the Countess would adore. And you’ll leave ecstatic.

I just got my color done with the Geo Palette Hair System, and there I was, standing at the gas pump pumping gas I can’t afford, and a man at the opposite pump said, “I love your hair.”

I said, “Thank you,” and he said, “Where do you come from?”

“Bewitched Salon,” I said, pointing down the street. “Take your girlfriend there, and she can get the best color ever.”

He then asked me if I wanted to be his girlfriend, and I thought, This is creepy, but I have to admit, his remark about my hair was refreshingly simple.

Sometimes, a pick-up line is nice. I’m not saying that I want someone to point at my butt and say, “Is this seat taken?” But when we’re old and gray (okay, maybe never), I think we might just miss it.

So go to Bewitched at 956 Broadway, Woodmere, NY for the Geo Palette, the most fabulous color ever. Brand spankin’ new, and you can’t get it anywhere else unless your salon is certified. (Bewitched in Woodmere, C3 in Port Washington, Beehive Islip, and Karisma, Tampa, and more to follow.)

We’re not responsible for the cheesy pick-up lines. But if a guy at the gas pump says your hair looks beautiful, you can believe it.

Call us for an appointment at 516 374-1490. And if somebody tells you that you’re responsible for global warming, because you look that hot,  well…please forgive us.

I turned on a movie the other day that I had seen when I was a teenager: Splendor in the Grass.  About broken hearts and madness, bad girls and good girls…but back in the day, it had left me cold. Life lessons made me absolutely love it when I watched it again, more than forty years later! Because I’ve lived since then: I’ve been the bad girl and the good girl, made poor choices and good choices, had my heart broken. I haven’t gone mad, like Natalie Wood, unless anxiety attacks count!

My son, a film major, watches a film classic a day. We’re on an Alfred Hitchcock kick now, and Rear Window resonates but Vertigo does not. North by Northwest is fun and thrilling, and confirms for my son that Hitchcock loves blondes. Tippi Hedron, Kim Novak, Eva Marie Saint, Doris Day, Janet Leigh, and my favorite ice goddess, Grace Kelly. From what I hear, Alfred claimed that blonds photographed better, and made better heroines. It doesn’t matter. Hitchcock offered us pure entertainment.

Here at Bewitched, we invite you to “go Hollywood” with the Geo Palette. Become a beautiful blond, a stunning redhead or a luscious brunette with our revolutionary new color system, written up in Newsday and L.I. Pulse.

Make an appointment at Bewitched by calling 516 374-1490 or visit our Geo Palette certified salons: Bewitched in Woodmere, Beehive in Islip, C3 in Port Washington or Karisma in Tampa, Florida.

Hooray for Hollywood and the Geo Palette! -JC

A good friend of mine was watching a neighbor’s dog for a week, and lost him. He ran out the door and was gone. Hundreds of fliers later, along with days of worrying, and my harried friend lost eight pounds!

After several phone calls about dogs that were too big or too small, a good Samaritan found him. Pale and svelte with her new figure, my friend could finally sleep again.

Here at Bewitched Salon, at 956 Broadway, in Woodmere, NY, we suggest an easier way to drop some weight…

Lose pounds of hair misery and look ten years younger by transforming your hair with the Geo Palette Hair System. Glorious color, for a walk in the park, no dogs involved. Give us a call at 516 374-1490, and check out our website at www.geopalette.com. Youtube hosts our videos under Geo Palette as well.  -JC

Steven Tyler has lead a charmed life, full of highs and lows, talent and tenacity, addiction and depression.

He developed Hepatitis C and was misdiagnosed with a brain tumor. He had damage to his throat, and a foot disease (Morton’s neuroma) that left him crippled (and addicted to painkillers.)

Aerosmith threatened to fire him. His wife left him. His mother died. His children were terrified that he would die as well, his depression ran that deep.

But rehab worked, his soul was revived, and Steven’s supreme spirit emerged once again. American Idol anointed him one of America’s jewels, and he was back and more loved than ever.

“Hell-fire save matches, f…k a duck and see what hatches” is part of Tyler folklore. We adore him.

Here at Bewitched, we suggest a simpler solution to leaving your misery behind. Rehab is great, of course. But how about rehabilitating your hair with the revolutionary new color system called the Geo Palette?

Re-invent yourself without the drugs and the drama. They will storm you in the street with compliments, and you won’t fall off the stage.

When I was little, I watched a show called Queen for a Day. The contestant had to be impoverished, crippled, or caring for several sick family members. She was crowned Queen, and given gifts galore while the audience cheered and the Queen cried her eyes out. I was mesmerized by her transformation from misery to happiness.

Yesterday, millions came together for a royal wedding, with its’ fashion, hair, and tradition. We loved that two kisses were bestowed upon the bride. Thousands of future brides will copy Kate’s natural style, her elegant gown, and simple make-up. They will go on her French diet to shed pre-marital pounds. For one long day into the wee hours of the morning, the world celebrated.

Here at Bewitched, we want our clients to celebrate every day by recommending our revolutionary new color system called the Geo Palette. The color lasts longer and surpasses any conventional methods with its’ subtlety and brilliance.

Transform your hair from misery to happiness, and get used to the compliments with the Geo Palette. The world will follow.

Visit us at www.geopalette.com, or watch our videos on YouTube at Geo Palette. Then make an appointment for your transformation at Bewitched Salon in Woodmere, NY, Bewitched Salon in Woodmere, NY, Beehive Islip, C3 in Port Washington, NY, or Karisma in Tampa, Florida.

I hope being broke doesn’t shorten my life. And I hope it’s only temporary. I turn down dinner with friends for the same reason…who wants to hear about my money gripes? I can only talk about reality televison or the burglaries in my area or relationships for so long. A glass of wine is good…but that eight dollars might better be saved for gas…guzzle the liquor or have my car guzzle the gas?

Or, would I rather get a shirt, or go out  to eat?

Which brings us to my favorite E.M. Forster line from Howard’s End…”Only connect.”

Should I connect with a person or an article of clothing?

Life is about making choices.

So save your pennies and get the Geo Palette at Bewitched Salon for gorgeous color. It lasts for months, you’ll get tons of compliments, bagels and coffee on Fridays and Saturdays, and “thank you” discounts for our valued clients…buy a card for $400 and get $550, $600 and you’ll get $900 of services.

Do the math, and come on in for a fresh spring look. Shopping therapy that resonates for months.  -JC

Here at Bewitched, some of us love Charlie Sheen and some of us think a date with Dr. Drew is in order. I myself would love to watch him fight his demons on Celebrity Rehab…and survive.

A recovering addict predicted that Charlie’s spiraling lunacy  is cocaine withdrawal…fighting everyone, despising most, grandiose gestures and spitfire dialogue, tweeting out of control.

Public fascination with Charlie Sheen is at a high. We can’t seem to get enough of him.

For a SHEEN of another kind (okay, forgive me), or a HAIR INTERVENTION, get the Geo Palette…revolutionary hair color, brilliant OR subtle, for every client’s color needs. Addiction of another kind…to beauty.

Call us for an appointment at 516 374-1490.
