Hair Design without compromise Kim Dunn, renowned for his perfectly balanced cuts, he has been fashioning creative hair designs for over 30 years. Creative and experienced, he knows that communication and consultation before any service is paramount, whether it's your first time or your twenty-first time. Kim has a way of looking at or percieving a persons attributes, which can be as subtle as a change in mood or a complete change in one's life. Kim refers to this as achieving a state of "relaxed attentiveness". This he believes, demands a clean field of vision so the hands can do their very best work. As a former salon owner in the Queen St. West area of Toronto and member of the exclusive Guild of Hair Design (certified as a Master Hairdresser), he has worked with some of the top names in the business. His work has been featured in various beauty trade publications and the Toronto media. He continues to upgrade and learn the newest techniques and technologies in the beauty field. As Kim says: "you can never learn too much." Kim utilizes innovative techniques and modalities in combination with the latest state-of-the-art styling implements to mold and texturize hair, creating a cut that is uniquely individual. "The cut is everything. It is the foundation upon which everything else is created. My challenge is to make it look like you never had a haircut, nor that one is required," says Kim. He also boasts technical know-how and creative understanding of the art of hair colouring. His philosophy...minimal colour for maximum effect is based on his knowledge on how hair colouring can create an illusion, making hair appear fuller, brighter and more luxurious. Perming and texturizing movement has been at the forefront of his repertoire for decades now. "Contemporary techniques and formulations are now better than ever. Your hair can be more volumous, wavy or curly, kinky or whatever. You want to create movement and texture? The possibilities are mindblowing," says Kim. Call Kim at 416.846.6415.

Bringing home baby: Health and safety tips Bringing your new baby home can also bring a host of baby proofing worries. Safety gates, toilet locks and outlet covers are just some of the ways you can babyproof your home. Along with the endless number of baby proofing gadgets on the market, new parents should also consider the benefits of a smoke-free home to keep their baby safe and healthy Canadians spend 90 per cent of their time indoors, so it is important to consider how a home's indoor air quality affects you and your new baby. Young children are especially vulnerable to second-hand smoke because their immune system is less protective.
