风水与发型

Anchor: For thousands of years people have used Fengshui to create harmony in their homes, but these days it's been used to bring balance to something different all together. Early Show contributor Laurie Hibberd explains it in today's Trend Report. Laurie, do tell.

Laurie Hibberd: Always it's all the buzz. but I 'll tell you, enthusiasts 1 of ancient Chinese Art say that happiness and prosperity can be achieved by arranging your home in a certain way. But Fengshui is not just for the house any more.

Bill Yamaguchi: We are talking about your, your temple, your landscaping. You know, how do we create who the individual is on the inside to the outside?

California hair stylist, Billy Yamaguchi believes you can fengshui yourself, and in his new book--Fengshui Beauty, he shows how to do just that. The first step, taking a test, to assess which of the fengshui elements best describes you and your life style.

Bill Yamaguchi: The five elements are Fire, Earth, Metal, Water and Wood. Each of the elements are an identifier, and it can give me an idea of who the person's personality type is, their life style. I get to assess their body type, their face shape, and put all of that together and share with them, which look is the best look for them.

Laurie Hibberd: Everybody is makeover crazy, that's all you see on television, how is fengshui makeover different?

Bill Yamaguchi: Fengshui makeover how it's different is that we read people's energy where the most of the time when you are seeing these extreme makeovers. We are having a lot of therapists come in, because the people are not connected with who they are on the outside. But fengshui beauty is reading people's energy, and reflecting that on the outside. You've got really pretty skin tones.

Jaime Miles, a 27- year- old spa manager discovered she was an Earth- Metal combination after taking Blily's test.

Laurie Hibberd: But really did she choose metal or did metal choose her?

Bill Yamaguchi: Let's ask her.

Jaime Miles: Well, I think it's more defining, uh... that I'm defining my job would be metal. Uh.. but Fire and Earth describe me more, I think.

Bill Yamaguchi: That's it so, in this case, her job is overpowering, and not in a bad way but is making her have to look a certain way, but truly who she is in the inside is that Fire person who wants to express passion, adventure and creativity,(Right.) and this is what I mean by fengshui, beauty from inside out.

To compliment Jaime's face shape and body frame, Billy gives her a choppy cut, then adds some carefully placed deep-red highlights to bring out her fire element. Her look is finished with a fire enhancing make-up palette. In just 2 hours Jaime's look has gone from this, to this.

Laurie Hibberd: What do you think?

Jaime Miles: I love it, love it.

Laurie Hibberd: What's different when you look at yourself?

Jaime Miles: The color, really different. I wouldn't have imagined, but I love it, and the haircut is really what I've always sort of imagined, what I wanted my hair to look like after I left the salon 2, but it never quite looked exactly like that.

Bill Yamaguchi: It's really important for the person to own who they are, because there are lots of people that don't really see the beauty within them. And Fengshui Beauty does that, a 100% of the time.

Anchor: I'm nervous now because I took this test.

Laurie Hibberd: I know and I analyzed 3 it this morning. Well, Let me just tell you that out of the 17 questions, 14 of them, you are a Fire sign. You poor husband.

Anchor: You know I asked you, I said my fire, you like: AH,YEAH.

Laurie Hibberd: Yeah. You're ,actually you are Fire-Earth which means that you are independent but also you enjoy being with people. However you don't need people around you to be successful. You are a great partner because you are creative, exciting and nurturing 4. You get into everything with great gusto. And you love to travel to exciting places but you're willing to wait until you can go in the first class.

Anchor: Oh, hahaha that's not true! That's so true. I'll go top any time.

Laurie Hibberd:As for the beauty elements are your haircut. You should cut your hair for texture 5, which you do, so that people can see the texture, adds some deep fiery 6 colored highlights. And your makeup 7 should be bold and your clothes ...or Versace, you know.. (Sure.)Who are we talking about? It's like we are talking about Julli T .

Anchor: Since I am such a great partner I will tell my husband you said don't think of Fonda. Thank you, Laurrie.
