Getting Real Pink About Breast

We at Paul Gerrard Salon is getting all pink this month. No, not with pink champagne or pink dresses, though that would be dainty! We’re getting excited about pink for a good cause this month. October is the International Breast Cancer Awareness month, and there is no reminder more timely than the 8th annual Pink Walk for Breast Health which will be held on October 28 at the Peak.
Hosted by The HK Breast Cancer Foundation, the walkathon aims to raise funds to reduce the threat of breast cancer. The folks at Paul Gerrard Salon say yes to greater public support and donations towards breast health education, patient support services, and local breast cancer research and advocacy. There is never a better time to dress in pink.

Donna Foreman, Paul Gerrard Salon director or finance, has gone from blonde to super pink to raise funds for the Pink Revolution. Sponsorship is pouring in thanks largely to family and friends!
Discover more how you can be a part of this here.
In the spirit of all things pink, you can increase your fabulousness on the big day with these PINK line products from Jane Iredale lip gloss, available on Paul Gerrard’s online store.


The fabulous Roses & Lollipops ($280) contains PureMoist lipstick in Roses and PureGloss in Lollilops. This set also doubles as a chic keychain locket featuring a pink Swarovski Crystal. We think these lipglosses are great when used on its own; but it’s definitely to-die-for when applied together!

Addressing Common Misconceptions About HIV

To effective combat HIV discrimination, we, as humans, must start understanding what HIV is and what it is not. Humans naturally fear the unknown. Accurate knowledge about the virus will help tackle the misconceptions of HIV head on, along with the discrimination.

Contrary to popular belief, HIV is not spread by normal everyday interactions with people living with the virus. These interactions include crying, coughing, and sneezing. So fear not about giving a POZ (a person who has received a positive test for the HIV virus, also known as People Living with HIV or PLHIV) a handshake or a hug; they need it just as much as anyone else!

It is also not possible to contract HIV from water contact at public pools or baths. Same goes for contact from food or beverages. Sharing utensils, household appliances, and furniture with people living with HIV is perfectly safe.

Unless blood is present, you cannot be infected by the virus through contact with bodily fluids such as vomit, sweat, stool, or nasal secretions. Though a small concentration of HIV may be present in tears, urine, and saliva, one cannot get HIV through contact with these fluid. The same goes for mosquitoes and insect bites.

Despite the recent medical breakthroughs and prescription drugs available to treat AIDS, it still does not mean that HIV is now under control. Drug-resistant strains of HIV are rife in many communities around the world, and there is yet to be a wonder drug that can kill all known strains of the virus.

Some HIV positive people believe they can't spread the virus because they are receiving medical treatment. This is untrue. With or without medical care, people living with HIV must take utmost care and safety measures to ensure they do not pass on the virus to those around them.

HIV affects everyone young and old, gay and straight, men and women. Just because you are heterosexual, or do not use IV drugs, does not mean you can't contract the HIV virus. No one is immune. If you are sexually active, make sure you incorporate tests for HIV and other sexually transmitted disease as part of your regular check-ups.

By advocating truths and preventing misinformation, we can go a long way towards a world that is more tolerant and knowledgeable about AIDS.

Three Sure-Fire Ways To Attract and Engage Your Audience

For most small businesses with a website, the holy grail for their online success is web traffic. However, page views and unique visitors, although important metrics to measure, are just one part of the overall story to online success.

Just how engaged is your web traffic to your content, brand, and site?

Building a site which has a strong sticky factor - that is, one that will make your audience return again and again - doesn’t necessarily need technical skills. What you need is time and effort, and plenty of both.

Connect with a blog. Probably one of the best decisions you can make for your website is to maintain a blog to engage with your audience. Build a blog packed with useful content, such as how-tos, product demos, and interviews. Present your blog in a conversational tone (read: not pre-approved sound bites) and watch your audience interaction increase.

Engineer a community on your site. Simply throwing a message board or enabling a commenting function on your website is not enough to make your site a success. To be truly successful, you need to give your audience a voice by listening for their concerns, responding to their comments, and sourcing feedback at every touch point. Gamification and reward programmes are also great tools for audience engagement.

Make everything shareable. With stellar content and an active community, you now have the power of social networking at your fingertips. Make everything on your site - articles, photos, videos, PDFs, etc - easily accessible to anyone, by anyone. There are many ways to do this, but installing plug-ins to allow your audience to share on Facebook and Twitter is a good first step to build brand awareness and increase word-of-mouth.

The link between HIV transmission and the war on drugs

In New York, one in seven persons who use drugs is living with HIV. 30% to 40% of these these users still share needles, leading to an increased exposure to HIV. In sub-Saharan Africa, one-third of all new HIV infections happen to people using injection-drug.

The link here? Repressive law enforcement activities by United States, Eastern Europe and Central Asia, among others. Nations with the most aggressive drug policies report terrifying infection rates amongst people who use drugs.

In fear of recrimination, they are prevented from seeking clean needles. When infected, they are further driven away from available health services and treatments and are instead increasingly mired in unsafe practices that increase the risk of infection. Such a vicious cycle makes HIV more prevalent than it should be in even the most developed countries and in certain regions.

Instead of criminalising drug users, the focus should move towards prevention and treatment. Government should encourage people who use drugs - as well as others who are at risk - to come forward for treatment. Such measure are proven to be far economical than to reinstate policies that aim to threaten those faced with drug addiction.

Concerted effort should be made to advocate AIDS prevention message. As the sayings goes, “prevention is better than cure”, resources used to criminalise people who use drugs can be better placed towards community education and outreach programme.

In place of fear, the voice of authority should be sown with empathy, support and positivity. Everyone has a right to health, even people who use drugs. The ongoing war on drugs deters us further to truly put an end to AIDS and therefore shall be put to an end, too.
