I am a Hairstylist/Make-up Artist. Most of the Salons I have worked at have been an Aveda Salon.

yummmmmmmmmmm, I love Aveda products . . . got some lotion, body wash and perfume spray with the nice scents used in Shampure!

Oh, I forgot . . . . I am a computer programmer working for a major international provider of software/consulting services, blah, blah . . . have laptop, will travel (well, not WILL, more like MUST . . . but not 100%). For fun, I write, read, garden and dance . . . . and travel to places I really want to go (not strange locations like Allentown, PA in the winter, which I did for a few weeks 2 years ago).

In general I can't stand what most consider "beauty products", mostly because I can't stand the smell of all the stuff.

However, the one thing I did recently buy was by Aveda and it's called Beautifying Composition. When I had my hair cut a month or so ago, I went to a new lady and she used this stuff to rub into my hair and scalp and it was really great for my hair and the smell was tolerable. :)

Allah tries his chosen people through many hardships, but those who persevere through adversity, surrendering themselves before the will of Allah, shall be blessed with a superb reward.

-The Prophet Muhammad (SAW), as reported by Anas bin Malik

A time will come when the sky is torn apart; when the stars scatter, and the ocean drains away; and when the graves are tossed about, and laid open. At that time every man will be told what he has done, and what he has failed to do; and every woman will be told what she has done, and what she has failed to do.

-Qur'an, Al-Infitar, Surah 82:1-5

I am a RN. I was an E/R trauma nurse in a large hospital in North Mississippi for 10 years. I also was a flight nurse on a medical helicopter for 3 years. While visiting a local museum in my town, I fell through a porch of a log cabin that is an exhibit on the museum grounds. I severely injured my back and neck and had a terrible surgery and rehabilitation. I am somewhat put back together but live most days with pain. I have good and bad days. So now I am disabled with a bad back and do not work anymore. I was good at what I did and I miss it sooo much. :crying:

I am on the left. My flight partner was shot and killed by her ex husband. She was dating one of the ER docs and the ex killed both and shot himself. He was a police officer. :(

I know it sounds funny :P When I was writing it I was trying to find a better way to put it but just couldn't think of one offhand.

I have a serious issue with scents. In general, they completely clog up my sinuses making it difficult to breathe, give me headaches and make me nauseated. Sooo.... when something is "tolerable" it's actually a good thing!!! :lol:

But yeah, they probably shouldn't have me as a spokesperson.

You have really bad allergies!! I love flowers and planting them in my garden to have nice blooming plants is sooooooooooo nice . . . but I get sick from allergies after working in my garden (not to mention the backaches). I have been re-assessing the use of many scented products and have gone the route of getting unscented laundry detergent and drier sheets . . . but it is hard to give up everything. Now I think I'll go light a nice scented candle . . .who knows how long I'll be able to use those!!! :crying:

Aveda does have a line called "All Sensitive" It is fragrance free. It is great for allergies, sensitive skin, or those who don't like alot of fragrance. They have hair and skin products in that line.

What an impressive team we have here. I certainly do not have a high profile job like some of you, but I have the best job in the world. I work for a group of hematolgy/oncology physicians. I am responsible for off site testing and authorizations. Basically, I schedule procedures for our patients that we do not do in the office. As we administer chemotherapy, I get to know all of the patients so very well. Some are with us every single day of the week. We become family. We laugh with them, cry with them, watch them go from sick to well, and some we can only offer hopes of comfort as they leave this world. I have been in the oncology field for 5 years. I love it. If I could stand the site of blood, I swear I would be an oncology nurse. But, as the site of blood and the thought of sticking a person with a needle makes me pass out, I would suck at nursing. So, I am happiest at my job. I get all of the benefits, with none of the blood.
