Zeno Is "Too Groovy"

What a pleasurable experience I had with Zeno and the Too Groovy Staff. You're welcoming spirits, professionalism and sense of care made me feel right at home. Relaxation was not an effort, it was automatic from the moment I walked in the door.  

The Experts in Natural Hair Care as they call themselves, Too Groovy was established by hair artesian Robin D. Groover and has since been a miracle worker for thousands of women transitioning from relaxed-to-natural "chemically free" hair. Not only are they recognized as one of Atlanta’s top salons and is dedicated to continuing to push boundaries; the results of their work are evident! There aren't any hidden, harmful, chemicals in their products nor are does their consultations sound more like a sale pitch.

Zeno's product knowledge coupled with his ability to distress your pressure points to ensure optimal blood circulation (which helps hair to grow) is AMAZING! He truly has "growing hands".

I encourage one and ALL to patronize Too Groovy and book your consultations/appointments with Zeno The Sheer Hairstylist.  You will not be involved in a Beauty Shop Experiment but be engaged in a True Salon Experience.

What is HIV/AIDS?

HIV/AIDS — Comprehensive overview covers symptoms, treatment and prevention of this deadly infection.

AIDS is a chronic, potentially life-threatening condition caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By damaging your immune system, HIV interferes with your body's ability to fight the organisms that cause disease.

HIV is a sexually transmitted disease. It can also be spread by contact with infected blood, or from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth or breast-feeding. It can take years before HIV weakens your immune system to the point that you have AIDS.

There's no cure for HIV/AIDS, but there are medications that can dramatically slow the progression of the disease. These drugs have reduced AIDS deaths in many developed nations. But HIV continues to decimate populations in Africa, Haiti and parts of Asia.
The symptoms of HIV and AIDS vary, depending on the phase of infection. The majority people infected by HIV develop a flu-like illness within a month or two after the virus enters the body. This illness, known as primary or acute HIV infection, may last for a few weeks. Possible symptoms include:
  • Fever
  • Muscle soreness
  • Rash
  • Headache
  • Sore throat
  • Mouth or genital ulcers
  • Swollen lymph glands, mainly on the neck
  • Joint pain
  • Night sweats
  • Diarrhea
Although the symptoms of primary HIV infection may be mild enough to go unnoticed, the amount of virus in the blood stream (viral load) is particularly high at this time. As a result, HIV infection spreads more efficiently during primary infection than during the next stage of infection. In some people, persistent swelling of lymph nodes occurs during clinical latent HIV. Otherwise, there are no specific signs and symptoms. HIV remains in the body, however, as free virus and in infected white blood cells.
Clinical latent infection typically lasts 8 to 10 years. A few people stay in this stage even longer, but others progress to more-severe disease much sooner.

As the virus continues to multiply and destroy immune cells, you may develop mild infections or chronic symptoms such as:
  • Fever
  • Fatigue
  • Swollen lymph nodes
  • Diarrhea
  • Weight loss
  • Cough and shortness of breath
If you receive no treatment for your HIV infection, the disease typically progresses to AIDS in about 10 years. By the time AIDS develops, your immune system has been severely damaged, making you susceptible to opportunistic infections — diseases that wouldn't trouble a person with a healthy immune system. The signs and symptoms of some of these infections may include:
  • Soaking night sweats
  • Shaking chills or fever higher than 100 F (38 C) for several weeks
  • Cough and shortness of breath
  • Chronic diarrhea
  • Persistent white spots or unusual lesions on your tongue or in your mouth
  • Headaches
  • Persistent, unexplained fatigue
  • Blurred and distorted vision
  • Weight loss
  • Skin rashes or bumps

If you think you may have been infected with HIV or are at risk of contracting the virus, seek medical counseling as soon as possible.

Scientists believe a virus similar to HIV first occurred in some populations of chimps and monkeys in Africa, where they're hunted for food. Contact with an infected monkey's blood during butchering or cooking may have allowed the virus to cross into humans and become HIV.

How does HIV become AIDS? HIV destroys CD4 cells — a specific type of white blood cell that plays a large role in helping your body fight disease. Your immune system weakens as more CD4 cells are killed. You can have an HIV infection for years before it progresses to AIDS. To be diagnosed with AIDS, you must have a CD4 count under 200 or experience an AIDS-defining complication, such as:
  • Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia
  • Cytomegalovirus
  • Tuberculosis
  • Toxoplasmosis
  • Cryptosporidiosis

To become infected with HIV, infected blood, semen or vaginal secretions must enter your body. You can't become infected through ordinary contact — hugging, kissing, dancing or shaking hands — with someone who has HIV or AIDS. HIV can't be transmitted through the air, water or via insect bites.
You can become infected with HIV in several ways, including:
  • During sex. You may become infected if you have vaginal, anal or oral sex with an infected partner whose blood, semen or vaginal secretions enter your body. The virus can enter your body through mouth sores or small tears that sometimes develop in the rectum or vagina during sexual activity.
  • Blood transfusions. In some cases, the virus may be transmitted through blood transfusions. American hospitals and blood banks now screen the blood supply for HIV antibodies, so this risk is very small.
  • Sharing needles. HIV can be transmitted through needles and syringes contaminated with infected blood. Sharing intravenous drug paraphernalia puts you at high risk of HIV and other infectious diseases such as hepatitis.
  • From mother to child. Infected mothers can infect their babies during pregnancy or delivery, or through breast-feeding. But if women receive treatment for HIV infection during pregnancy, the risk to their babies is significantly reduced.

When HIV/AIDS first surfaced in the United States, it predominantly affected homosexual men. The type of HIV found in many African nations is more easily spread through heterosexual sex. Anyone of any age, race, sex or sexual orientation can be infected, but you're at greatest risk of HIV/AIDS if you:
  • Have unprotected sex. Unprotected sex means having sex without using a new latex or polyurethane condom every time. Anal sex is more risky than is vaginal sex. The risk increases if you have multiple sexual partners.
  • Have another STD. Many sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) produce open sores on your genitals. These sores act as doorways for HIV to enter your body.
  • Use intravenous drugs. People who use intravenous drugs often share needles and syringes. This exposes them to droplets of other people's blood.
  • Are an uncircumcised man. Studies indicate that lack of circumcision increases the risk for heterosexual transmission of HIV.

WELCOME

Zeno The Sheer Stylist Blog Campaign

We are proud to announce the launch of Zeno The Sheer Stylist Blog Campaign to assist in the efforts of raising funds for the AIDS Research Consortium (ARCA). Founded in 1988, ARCA is a non-profit 501(c)(3) center for treatment and prevention research, education, and free HIV/STD testing services.
  
AIDS/HIV is a cause near and dear to my heart for many reason. Therefore, I have commissioned myself to use my skills and talents as a Celebrity Hair Stylist to be the leading fund raiser for this year's ARCA annual event, Uncork A Cure.  Uncork is a fabulous evening of great wine, fantastic food, a terrific silent and live auction, and Atlanta's hottest networking opportunity—all for a great cause!

 
Thank you in advance for your support and please be sure to encourage others to visit this site as we make great strides in the prevention, education and support of those affected by HIV and AIDS.
