30 - The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday November 19, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com Musical group has ambitious season planned with six performances Continued from page 29 "One of the best things about the group for me is how devoted the choristers are and how hard they work." And the group has a lot of fans. "It is a very unique group," Demuynck said. "A lot of arts groups struggle to find an audience, but Masterworks hasn't had a problem with this at all. We do these big sacred pieces for choir and orchestra and it is really glorious music that draws a lot of people." Masterworks of Oakville presents three musical events per season, with two concerts each. Its next pair of concerts runs Feb. 13 and 14 and are entitled Baroque Favourites. Featured composers are Haircare tips BEAUTY & Spa To Be a Hassle The number one mistake women make when it comes to their hair is over-washing. Sure, you may feel like your hair should always be clean. You may be a lady who feels the urge to shampoo on a daily basis. The good news is you can keep your hair clean, without using shampoo daily. If you must "wash" your hair daily, do so without shampoo. Either opt for a wateronly wash, or opt for using conditioner only if your hair is dry or damaged. However, shampoo should only be applied every other day (at the maximum). Your hair will be shiny and silkier than ever before! Long Hair Still Needs To Be Salon Styled Cut Another major mistake women make with long hair is avoiding the salon. In fact, many women only venture to the stylist if they need a products or a formal updo. Although you may want to keep your length, to avoid split ends you will need to have a trim. Small cuts can help your hair retain its best shape and natural volume. This is particularly important if your hair is thick or curly. If you learn how to accessorize with clips you can stretch your trims to about 12 weeks. However, trims are ultimately necessary! Long Hair Care: Don't Overdo It With Heat When you have long hair, you understand the time it takes to get it dry. Sure, a blow dryer may seem Vivaldi, Handel and J. S. Bach. "This is all the most famous pieces you can play from that period for choir and orchestra by those composers," Demuynck said. "We'll also have (soprano) Ashleigh Semkiw, who studies at Northwestern University in Chicago, but is from Oakville. She is making herself known in the opera world." The final musical event of the season runs April 24 and 25 and features John Rutter's Mass of the Children. Guests are the Oakville Children's Choir and soprano Neema Bickersteth. Demuynck said the concerts are ideal for music lovers of all ages. He said that "It is engaging music and you shouldn't feel like you need a bachelor's degree in music to come to the concert." Charles Demuynck Artistic director people don't have to be classical music experts to enjoy performances by Masterworks of Oakville. "I encourage people to come out because it is much more entertaining and fun than people think classical music can be," he said. "It is engaging music and you shouldn't feel like you need a bachelor's degree in music to come to the concert."

Taming Your Long Hair into Beautiful Locks: Washing, Styles, Cuts, Blow Drying Long hair can be sexy and fashionable when taken care of. However, keeping long hair styles healthy takes more than routine shampoo and conditioner applications. While long hair care doesn't need to take loads of time, it's important for your overall hair health. Most people understand proper nutrition and vitamins can help your hair stay healthy. However, there are also a few beauty techniques that can show you how to keep your long locks away from split ends and tangles. Washing Your Long Hair Doesn't Need like the most obvious tool to use for this task. However, the amount of heat you need to dry long hair completely can damage your hair.
