WHAT KEEPS ME GOING?

"Nothing without faith!"

"The Lord is my light and my salvation
whom shall i fear?
The Lord is the rampart of my life;
I will not be afraid.
When the wicked rush at me to devour my flesh,
it is my foes who stumble, my enemies fall.
Though an army encampagainst me,
I will still be confident.
One thing I ask of the Lord, one thing I seek-
that I may dwell in his house
all the days of my life;
to gaze at his jewel
and to visit his sanctuary.
For he will keep me safe in his shelter
in times of misfortune.
He will hide me beneath his roof
and set me high upon a rock."

There's milk on your hair(Page 2)

It can be said that Filipino men and women devote much attention to their hair proven by the fact that there are many hair salons in the country. They won�t be there if they don�t have costumers, right? In Metro Manila alone, there are over 46 hair and beauty salons (not including the number of branches of well-known salons). In these salons, rebonding is a common service provided. It becomes so popular that many salons, no mater how small their parlor is, would offer this service. Remember how shampoos say that using their product would give you a rebond-like hair thus making the Rejoice commercial line �Shampoo lang �yan!� popular?

With the dawn of this new hair technology, there is a great possibility that other salons will also engage in milk rebonding this 2005. Because of milk rebonding�s extra benefits, competition will increase. In a competitive market, as explained in economics, following the law of downward-sloping demand curve(you�ll learn more of this in Econ 11, especially under Ma�am Monsod), �increased supply must decrease price and increase quantity demanded.� Applying the theory, the price of milk rebonding treatment would probably decrease as other salons venture in milk rebonding this year. There is also an increase in the demand for the treatment as a result of this price decrease aside from the effect of the popularity of milk rebonding. The same is true even in other products or services right? Let�s see what the 24/7 Call and Text Unlimited of Sun Cellular would do to our cellular phone companies.

But if you�re planning to do milk rebonding in your salon, you still have to consider a lot of things. First, are you capable of providing the service? Do you have enough knowledge and resources to do it? Will you be willing to take the risk of competing with other big salons? Well, according to Tony Galvez, famous hairstylist and establisher of The Tony Galvez Centrum Galvez, hairdressing is a new global skill for Filipino workers. He believes that by proper education, Filipinos will be able to compete abroad. He put up Tony Galvez School of Cosmetology (TGSC) which aims to adopt the international standards in the hairdressing and cosmetology profession.
