I was looking through the August US, Marie Claire and saw the new Dove ad for the hair products.

It shows pictures of regular people with all kinds of different hair including a lady wearing a crown braid and then it says,

"None of these women are hair models. After all, neither are you. Dove believes all women have beautiful hair when it's deeply cared for. No matter what length, style, cut, color or texture, you can discover the beauty in your own hair with the deep care in Dove Shampoos and Conditioners. Learn more at campaignforrealbeauty.com"

Yes it is still a push to use the products but this is a big step in the right direction.

Very cool!  I noticed a tv commercial the other day (I think it was for one of those new drugs but I'm not sure) in which there were many women in it with full heads of gray hair, and at least 3 of the women had longer styles, at or below the shoulders.

Thanks Anais, it comes complete with my Long Hair Jewels sticks that Anne (at LHC) made. But I don't think she's making sticks right now.

It's encouraging to hear about Dove's campaign.  That's empowering -- signs of which are so rarely seen in the "beauty" industry.
