美甲起源与发展

美甲是一种对指(趾)甲进行装饰美化的工作,又称甲艺设计。美甲是根据客人的手形、甲形、肤质、服装的色彩和要求,对指(趾)甲进行消毒、清洁、护理、保养、修饰美化的过程。具有表现形式多样化的特点。

古埃及人就率先用臆羚的毛皮摩擦使指甲发亮,并涂以散沫花汁使其呈现迷人的艳红。在一次考古中有人曾在埃及艳后的墓中发现了一个化妆盒,里面记载着:涂上“处女指甲油”为通向西方极乐世界之用。 在我国唐朝时期,就已经出现染甲的风尚,所用的材料是凤仙花。做法是取腐蚀性较强的凤仙花的花和叶放在小钵中捣碎,加少量明矾,便可以用来浸染指甲。也可将丝棉捏成与指甲一样的薄片,放入花汁,等到吸入水分后取出,放在指甲表面,经过连续浸染三到五次,数月都不会褪色。美甲不仅是美丽的标志,还是地位的象征,中国古代官员还用装饰性的金属假指甲增加指甲长度,显示尊贵地位。 英国皇室贵族和中国的清朝皇室都有留甲的传统,保留洁白的指甲表示不必辛苦的工作,象征了地位和权利。拥有一双修长、华丽指甲的人多半属于上流社会的阶层。 无论是哪个民族、种族,对美的向往和崇敬之心都是相同的。在不断的追求中技法和方式在不段的更新,现在的美甲材料也更加的健康、环保,满足不同人群的美的需求。

美国人理发“火烧脑袋”惊人真相

当我看到这条新闻的时候,非常吃惊。居然有这样的事情发生,不过,世界之大,啥稀奇事儿都有,我也想开了。

三百六十行,行行出状元,行行都有绝招。美国的一位理发师沃伦特·刘易斯就练成了一手绝活儿——-不用刀剪,火烧平头。70多岁的沃伦特·刘易斯家住田纳西州的孟菲斯市,在当地可以说是大名鼎鼎,无人不知。他的理发馆已经开了50多年,火烧平头的绝招也越练越精,尤其让人称道的是,他的安全记录十分良好,只发生过一次小意外。由于理发方式新奇,又有安全保证,好奇者纷纷赶来,想亲身体验这种不同的感觉。刘易斯称,以火理发的灵感来自他小时候看到母亲用火去除鸡毛,他当时就想,为什么人不能用火理发呢?后来几经摸索,他终于练成了这手绝活儿。刘易斯说,用火烧不但干净省事,而且做成的发型更持久。刘易斯表示,拿起剪刀,他肯定不是最棒的,不过,火烧平头可是他的拿手绝招,他希望自己能凭着这一招成为田纳西州最知名的理发师。五十年来华伦只失手过一次,当时因为客人的发胶太多,整个头都烧了起来。华伦称他是田纳西州最红的理发师,因为他的这套绝技实在太“烫手”了。
