Con- sider these mistakes many people make in hari care. Mistake: Expensive shampoo. Come on ... you feel guilty using $.99 sham- poo because it's really bad for your hair. Anybody knows the $24 salon variety is so much better especially for chemically treated hair. Wrong. Price has nothing to do with it. The secret to shampoo intelligence is to know your detergents. Look at the list of ingredients. Wa- ter (or some fancy name for it) will al- ways be the first ingredient. Next comes the deter- gent. Keep this list handy. Ammonium Lau- ryl Sulfate — very harsh Ammonium Laureth Sul- fate — harsh Sodium Lauryl Sulfate — still harsh Sodium Laureth Sulfate — mild, great choice TEA Lauryl Sulfate — gentle, good choice TEA Laureth Sulfate — gentle, also a good choice Buy a quality condi- tioner. Unlike shampoo that washes down the drain, the quality of conditioner does make a difference. Mistake: Over washing. Shampoo strips essential oils from hair. Day-old hair styles better and generally looks better than freshly washed hair. Shampoo your hair to three or four times a week. Your hair will love you and your sham- poo will last twice as long. If you want to freshen up your locks in between shampoos, spritz with a good dry shampoo. Mistake: Too much shampoo. You don't need a giant head of suds to know your shampoo is working. Start with a small amount. Then instead of shampoo- ing and conditioning all the way through, concentrate shampoo toward the scalp, and condition just the mid- shaft to the ends of your hair. Your ends need more moisture and your roots need a little less of it so they can maintain volume. The suds will run down from the top of your head and get those ends clean anyway. Mistake: Rinsing too much. Colored hair is much different than hair that has not been chemically treated. Since colored hair absorbs and releases water much more easily, when the water leaves, so does some of the color. Rinse quickly to protect that expen- sive color job. Also, stick to lukewarm or cooler wa- ter since heat also removes color faster. Mistake: Too much con- ditioner. The ends of your hair should be the focus when putting on this super- hydrating product. When your scalp is covered in conditioner, you're likely to end up with a tacky film that leads to build-up. With the money you save on the shampoo, buy a quality con- ditioner. It takes just a tiny amount to get the job done.

EVERYDAY CHEAPSKATE Stopmakingthesecostlyhairmistakes Mary Hunt On May 8, the Univer- sity of California is asking the public to join its faculty, students, staff, 4-H volun- teers and master gardeners Thursday in a vast science project across the state, in recognition of the 100th an- niversary of University of California Cooperative Ex- tension (UCCE). Tehama County Cooper- ative Extension will host an open house 3-6 p.m. Thurs- day with a meet and greet of office staff at 1754 Walnut St. in Red Bluff. Learn about the UC pro- grams offered here in Te- hama County. Join the Gar- den Walk for the statewide Pollinator Count project. Shake hands with the 4-H Clover mascot and sample locally grown products in- cluding olives, walnuts, al- monds and prunes. President Woodrow Wil- son signed the Smith-Lever Act May 8, 1914. It created Cooperative Extension to serve as a con- duit for scientific advances in agriculture, nutrition and natural resources from the nation's public, land-grant universities to its farmers, youth and communities. "UC Cooperative Ex- tension is all about science and service," said Barbara Allen-Diaz, UC vice presi- dent for the Division of Ag- riculture and Natural Re- sources, which administers Cooperative Extension in California. "To celebrate the anni- versary of Cooperative Ex- tension, we are asking Cal- ifornians to help us collect scientific data so that all of us will better understand our natural, agricultural and urban communities." UC Cooperative Exten- sion invites you to be a sci- entist for the day by record- ing your observations on any of three topics in your local community. Then add your observa- tions to the online database at beascientist.ucanr.edu. Or, be apart of the Garden Walk, 3-5 p.m. Thursday. To participate in the UC Cooperative Extension Cel- ebration of Science and Ser- vice on May 8, just answer any of the following three questions: How many pollinators do you see? Bees, butterflies, bee- tles and bats — our food depends on their ability to pollinate all kinds of crops. Spend three minutes out- doors in your community counting pollinators and add your numbers to a statewide pollinator map. The beascientist.ucanr.edu website will help you iden- tify which ones are pollina- tors. "This information will give us a baseline under- standing of pollinator pop- ulations across California," according to Beth Grafton- Cardwell. She is a UCCE specialist in the Depart- ment of Entomology at UC Riverside and leader of the UC Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR) strategic initiative on endemic and invasive spe- cies. How do you conserve water? Do you conserve water in your garden, landscape, household or farm? Let us know by clicking on our Cal- ifornia water map. "Conserving water is es- sential, especially during a drought," says Doug Parker, director of the UC Califor- nia Institute for Water Re- sources and leader of the UC ANR strategic initia- tive on water quality, quan- tity and security. "This in- formation will help us un- derstand how water is being used and conserved across the state." Where is food grown in your community? Do you grow your own food or get homegrown food from a neighbor who gardens? Is there a community farm nearby, or vegetable plants growing in the park- way between the street and sidewalk? This project encourages you to discover exactly where food is grown in your community, and at the same time contribute to a state- wide understanding of how widespread local food pro- duction is throughout Cali- fornia. "It's becoming more important to understand where our food comes from and to make sure every- one knows how to enjoy its benefits," says Richard Bu- chner, UC Cooperative Ex- tension director in Tehama County. CENTENNIAL OpenhousesetThursdayatTehama County cooperative extension office Marks UC Ag & Natural Resources' 100th CONTRIBUTED PHOTO Westside 4-H member Haley Templeton. 4-H members flocked to the Tehama District Fair- grounds on Saturday for the annual Fur and Feathers. Even the youngest 4-H members tried their hand at showing pygmy goats, rabbits, dogs and chickens. Judges were on hand to point out the strengths and weaknesses of the various animals and birds, as well as giving youngsters a chance to practice showmanship skills. Members in the dog train- ing project showed both showmanship and obedi- ence skills. Primary mem- bers participated in a Pet Pa- rade to begin the event. Youth between the ages of 5-19 are encouraged to call the 4-H office at (530) 527- 3101 for further information about joining 4-H. Adult volunteers are needed and welcome to call as well.
