PROTECTIVE STYLING FOR SENIOR WOMEN








A lot of women take a break from the 
constant flat ironing, the hot curling, 
and styling of their hair during the fall
and winter months.They use protective
methods to give their  hair a rest from 
the daily tugging and pulling on their 
hair. Some women have heat damage, 
split ends and hair breakage. 

I started using protective methods for my hair 
2 years ago. I wear wigs, updos, head wraps,
and hats during the fall and winter months. I 
don't use the protective method as an excuse
to stop caring for my hair. My hair is washed 
and conditioned and regularly. I do intensive
scalp treatment once a month. I just protect 
my hair from a lot of heat and manipulation.
My hair responds to my protection,therefore,
I continued with this regimen yearly.

I'm going to show images of protective 
methods in the coming weeks. This will 
include head wraps, hats, braids, and 
wigs I wear during the fall and winter. 
I'll have tutorials for the tying of head 
wraps and adding pony tails and braids
to your hair.

SENIOR WOMEN SHOE QUEST, DRESS SHOES









I finally came to grips with the fact that I could
no longer wear high heeled pumps. I was not a 
twenty something that had to endure foot pain 
too look fashionable!  I was determined to find 
some low heeled comfortable pretty shoes to 
wear to church and special occasions. I had to
visit shoe outlets, malls, and department stores. 
My online shopping for these shoes was tricky 
since my shoe range was size 8 to 9 depending
on the style and brand. The shoes I am sharing
seem to answer my prayer for comfort and style.

SENIOR WOMEN'S SHOE QUEST! WINTER







I am past the age that I want to endure pain to
look fashionable. As you age you need a good
arch and  comfortable low heeled shoes. It took
a lot of shopping online, at shoe outlets, and at 
malls to find shoes that fit this bill.  I could not 
figure out if the shape of my foot had changed
or shoe manufacturers had altered the sizing of 
their shoes. 

I discovered that clogs and mules were the answer  for me during the winter.  I bought loads of pretty socks to wear with them.


Here are some examples of the style of shoes I
found that were comfortable and stylish for the
fall and winter:

socks at drugstores and discount stores.
