Arteriosclerotic Changes of the Toenails-skin Disorders

A decrease of blood flow to the distal toes regularly results in the development of nail dystrophy. The nail changes found in these circumstances are nearly identical with those seen in onychomycosis; the two diseases can be correctly identified only when potassium hydroxide (KOH) preparations and fungal cultures are carried out. Arteriosclerotic dystrophy is seen only in the toenails, fingernails are not affected. There is no effective treatment for these changes.

Massachusetts Salon Owner & Internationally Recognized Designer Edward Blum

BOSTON AND EASTON, MA...Massachusetts salon owner and internationally recognized industry

expert in hair color, design and styling, Edward Blum, just returned from New York this week after

working with the color and design team for fashion designer Donna Karan as she introduced her Fall

2010 collection during Fashion Week (February 11-18th).

 Blum, who was a team colorist with the "dynamic duo" Christopher and Sonya Dove, was brought

to New York"s Fashion Week by Wella Professionals as a colorist/stylist for Donna Karan"s models.

Blum is co-owner of the prestigious Makeovers Salon & Spa, a state-of-the-art facility located in

Easton with a staff of 80. Known for his artistry and technical knowledge, Blum has been a hair

stylist for 31 years and a salon owner for more than 21 years. Makeovers Salon & Spa is his fourth

salon and one of the largest salons and spas in Massachusetts.

 

"Donna Karan"s Fall collection has an emphasis on curves with gathered suiting, body hugging

wraps and scarves. Hair style and color is all about looking very natural and approachable yet at the

same time, ultra chic and refined. Any hint of brassiness in hair color is out. To get the gorgeous,

shiny, natural looking hair that the models are sporting is definitely an investment," noted Blum.

 

Blum shared some of the fashion trends that will be seen this fall:

 

*

Hair color will be natural looking with glosses and glazes leading the way. Hair styles will be sporty and slightly edgy.

*

Nails will be natural looking. Gel nails and gel polishes will be all the rage.

*

Trends in body care will be bio-organic and very moisturizing.

 

According to Blum, "We"re really going to see a turn towards the natural and organic this fall and it

will be reflected in hair style and make-up, even in spa treatments."

 

Blum has worked alongside a number of greats over the years including Vidal Sassoon, Jon Louis

David and Jaque Dessange. He trained with Alexandre de Paris and also served as the International

 Spokesperson and Market Leader for Wella Corporation for 15 years, providing hair design and

styling for major hair shows in the U.S. and Europe.

 

He is a contributing writer to many professional beauty publications including Modern Salon

Magazine, American Salon Magazine and Salon Today Magazine. No stranger to the stars, Blum

has been the stylist for ð€ÇOne Life to Liveð€Ý soap opera"s Christian Alfonso and Judge Maria Lopez of

the ð€ÇMaria Lopez Showð€Ý as well as for Buena Vista Studios-Disney, New England Today, Boston

Channel 5 and Channel 4. He has won numerous awards and worked on many other stage, hair and

fashion award shows over the last three decades.

 

On the local level, Blum holds the Northeast Cutting and Styling Championship title and his salon

has been honored 15 times with First Place Reader"s Choice Award in all beauty categories.

Additionally, he frequently serves as a consultant to many cosmetology schools in New England.
