I’m watching an old British series about the professional beauty/actress, Lillie Langtry, born in Jersey to parents who believed in higher education for their daughter. Dressed in a plain black mourning dress, her beauty and wit made the aristocracy take notice, particularly the Prince of Wales. Painters made portraits of her, photographers clamored and she even made one of the first advertisements using her image for Pears Soap.

She became an actress not because she had a strong calling to do so, but because she needed money to maintain her lifestyle. She was mobbed wherever she went.

Much like Kim Kardashian. Except that Lillie held her own in conversation with Gladstone, the prime minister, knew about art, music, literature, and politics. She was beautiful, yes. An opportunist, possibly. Well read, absolutely.

Kim is sweet and successful. A professional beauty of a different kind. You spot the differences.

Lillie went on to become an American citizen so that she could obtain a divorce, owned race horses, performed in vaudeville, and died in Monaco after living a rich life. Lillie left her mark.

Kim has left her mark as well, along with her family. But it’s a different kind of mark.

Go to www.geopalette.com for hair color that is one of a kind. Like Lillie. Call 516 374-1490 for an appointment, or consult one of our Geo Palette salons in Texas, California, Florida, or New York. Leave your mark. -JC

I don’t know about you, but I’m thankful for the J-Lo’s and Kim K’s of the world, with their world famous derrieres that are “larger than life”.  Hurrah for the big booty that’s “booty-ful!”

But photoshopping out problem areas has become the norm, where lines, dips and hollows are miraculously erased, and fifty year old stars look like twenty year old ingenues. Human beings, (read “real women”), cannot compete.

Except for the hair. With the Geo Palette Color System, your hair will become younger, more vital, more dimensional, more fabulous than ever before. Sample the range of colors we offer…gorgeous blonds in several shades from honey to platinum, rich brunettes ranging from plum to chocolate, redheads that dazzle with luxurious copper iced with deep burgundy. Endure the compliments, with no photoshopping necessary, ever ever ever.
