Staying Pretty

1. Hair Pavilion
"You have a beautiful head. You should be happy!"
Though told this several times while I was sporting a bald pate, it sure didn't make me feel any better as a woman. I expected my oncologist to say stuff like this and my bf would say anything to make…More »
2. Indulgence Day & Med Spa
One word: Sonata
When I fork over big bucks for a massage, I don't want a pimply-faced, skinny noob who posts her 6 hour physical therapy certificate on the wall, like that means anything. I want hands that know the human body, its condition and where…More »

"Touch me!
Touch me, damn you, or I'll find someone who will!"*
My long search is over. I've found… Read more »
3. Candlewood Beauty Supply & Wigs
I found it today in the weave of a sweater I hadn't worn in a while, a long, lonely strand of blond hair and I couldn't help crying. I loved my hair. Through all the knots, the constant brushing and pissed off cursing after a surf with ocean water…More »

I'm bald. Okay, so what? Some people have no issue with that but I do. I'm not supposed to be bald,… Read more »
4. Reflections Cancer Boutique
Los Angeles, CA 90095
(310) 794-9090
Neighbourhood: Westwood
This is a very small, well-stocked (as in cram-packed), sensitive (in the "we care" ala mode) cancer victim-focused boutique simply overflowing with OTC health products, prosthetic underclothing, "be happy" jewelry and (of max importance for women…More »
5. Finely Kneaded Day Spa
Surfing and heels, pleasure and pain...I knead a massage.
Both surfing and strutting tall make me feel great. Both make me look my best and combining a great tan with long, lean legs in heels, a girl can sometimes stop traffic (I saw it in the movies…More »
6. Zap Electrolysis & Skin Care
Los Angeles, CA 90024
(310) 474-4787
Categories:
Hair Removal,
Skin Care
Neighbourhoods: West Los Angeles, Westwood
I'll walk a mile to get zapped.
Well, actually I won't. But I'll drive 50 miles for a zapping and that's the truth. Why? Even though I'm generally not known as a shy type, at times I can be. Like when it comes to spreading my legs. I won't spread 'em…More »
7. Vandal Glass
Disclaimer: there's no sex in this update...just a mouth full of innuendo.
As with any tool, the more you use it, the better you become at it. If you've ever seen a master roofer swinging a simple hammer, you'll see that he hits the nail on the head…More »

8. Versani
Stay Cool Be Strong!
What does 5-Stars signify here? It means a marriage of convenience has been consummated and my monarchy has grown. Bow before me lest I smite thee with my awesome and terrible swift pen. And beware the stare of the green-eyed lady…More »

I'm not the bejeweled hipster show-off with the I-Gotta-Have-More-Bling-T han-You persona. Nope, not… Read more »
9. Nanette Lepore Boutique
Los Angeles, CA 90048
(310) 281-0004
Categories:
Women's Clothing,
Accessories
Neighbourhood: Mid-City West
I finally made it! No, not where I can afford any of her designs but I finally managed to find her boutique. First thing I did was ask for the sales rack. "Sales rack?" "Uh, we don't have a sales rack." WTF? Who doesn't have a sales rack? Oh, high…More »
10. Nordstrom Rack
OK, if I want the look without the fashion price, the Rack has enough to get me to where I want to go. I really can't say enough good things about this place . The concept is simple enough, super-discounted new stuff hung on chronically mislabled…More »
11. Natural Nails, Etc.
"Keep 'em long, sharp and red."
So they file them down and squared-off. Oh well, that's okay they still look killer. It happens every time.
When I'm kinda in that rush, as I am today, I'll shoot by Natural Nails in the Lakewood Mall. They have quite…More »
12. Planet Beauty
Some call me cheap (as in "you cheap whore"). I call myself frugal (as in "you frugal bitch"). Frugalish-ishly smart I am. So when Planet Beauty offered a "Buy 3, get one free." for OPI nail polish (my favorite brand) I bit. My gf had been on me for…More »
13. OPI Nail Polish - Russian
Have you ever attended a "murder-mystery dinner"? They can be so cool.
I was crowned Princess Lulu of the island of Moola-Moola at one down in LB and I therefore feel empowered, as an ex-aristocrat, to write about anything I want. So I have elected to…More »
14. La Joli Beauty Salon
There are tons of reasons to hate cancer. I won't name them all cause I'm sure you're quite aware of most of them. However, one that affects many women is losing your hair to chemo and I was way out to the outer ring of sanity on that one last year.…More »

15. Somatic Body Piercing
Piercing places have always freaked me out. Call me a wuss, it matters not.
With most of the regulars looking like the indigenous tribal people of Irian-Jaya, I think of rich white people disappearing and their bones being found later around a…More »
16. Tattoo Removal Center
Ever want to get rid of a tattoo? Most of us do at one time or another. In fact, I wouldn't doubt if Mike Tyson hasn't rethought his facial "art". If not, he should.
My Tat Stats:
Getting the tat:
1. Cheap: $6 in a…More »
17. Everyday Zen Relaxation Studio
I surrendered myself wholly and completely to her strong, knowing fingers, allowed them to probe and explore, to slide across chemo-smooth skin looking for the telltale knots and kinks resulting from a year of unanticipated stress. Here was a woman…More »
