In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The ingredients found in many shampoos, conditioners and other hair products can be damaging to hair. Even if a product says it will repair damaged hair, it could be doing more harm than good. To make absolutely sure that you aren't harming your hair, consider buying your products from a natural grocery store instead of a drugstore chain. You can also save money by making your own hair products. Try making shampoo, conditioner, or hair gel at home. Avoid hair products that contain sulfates, silicones, or alcohols. These ingredients are harsh on hair. If your body is dehydrated, it will show in your hair. Drink plenty of water to keep your hair looking healthy and hydrated along with your skin. As a general rule, aim to drink water whenever you're thirsty. Instead of reaching for coffee or soda, choose water for the best health benefits. Try taking a water bottle with you during the day so you'll always have water on hand if you're thirsty. If you dislike drinking water, try drinking herbal iced tea or another sugar and caffeine free drink. Your diet has a big effect on the health of your hair. If you're deficient in a certain vitamin or nutrient, your hair will be one of the first places it shows. In order to grow healthy, vibrant hair, make sure your diet includes plenty of the following: Protein, such as lean meats, beans, and dairy. Omega 3 fatty acids, as found in salmon, sardines, flax seeds and walnuts. B vitamins, found in meats and other animal products. If you're a vegetarian, consider supplementing your diet with vitamins to make sure you get all the nutrients you need. The sun, pool chemicals, and air pollution can all be hazardous to your hair. Protecting your hair from these environmental elements can make a big difference when it comes to restoring your hair to health. Take the following precautions to save your hair: When you go out in very strong sun, wear a hat. When you swim in a pool, wear a swim cap. If you live in a place with high air pollution, wear a hat or try wearing your hair in a protective style, such as braids. As you change your habits, you'll start growing in healthy, vibrant hair. It may take awhile to see a huge difference, especially if your hair was very damaged to begin with. Getting regular trims is a way to get rid of old, dry hair and allow you to see the progress you're making.
Summary: Use all-natural hair products. Stay hydrated. Eat nourishing food. Protect your hair from the elements. Get regular trims.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You may apply stucco directly over these rigid, solid surfaces, but only if the surface is roughly textured and absorbent. If the wall does not absorb a sprinkle of water, or if there's obvious surface contamination, wash the surface thoroughly. If the wall is coated in paint or sealer, or if it's too smooth to support stucco, try one of the following treatments: Acid etching. Sandblasting. Bush hammer or roughing machine (for unpainted, smooth surfaces). Applying a bonding agent, referring to specific product instructions. Do not use a bonding agent over water-soluble paint. If there is any doubt that the wall can support the stucco, apply the stucco as you would to a stud wall, attaching metal lath and plastering over it. Wet the wall right before you apply the first coat of plaster, preferably with a fog spray. This improves the suction bond and reduces the amount of water the wall absorbs from the plaster, preventing premature drying. The surface should be damp, but not soaked. Delay the job if the next week of weather involves freezing temperature, hot weather (above 90F / 32C), or high wind. These conditions will interfere with the curing process. . This coat should be 1 part cement material (including lime) and 2 to 4 parts sand. Plastic cement, which has been pre-mixed with lime, is usually the easiest to mix and work with. Combine this with plaster sand from a dry material yard. Only add enough water to allow you to trowel the plaster, or it may sag or fail to stick to the wall. Trowel on a layer inch (6.4 mm) thick. Score this with shallow, horizontal lines using a notched trowel, keeping the tool perpendicular to the wall. These grooves will help the next coat bond onto the surface. Acid-etched surfaces (among others) may not be quite rough enough for a strong bond with this method. Instead, dash on the scratch coat using a cement gun, or by whipping it on with a fiber brush or whisk broom. This forces out air to create a stronger bond. Some builders combine the scratch coat and brown coat into one base coat. If you choose to do this, plan on a total stucco thickness of about inch (9.5 mm) for cast concrete, and inch (12.7 mm) for unit masonry. Allow about inch (6.4 mm) of this thickness for the finish coat. With modern cement on a rigid surface, there is no need to wait for the scratch coat to cure completely. For a stronger bond, trowel on the second, "brown" coat as soon as the scratch coat is rigid enough to resist cracking, usually after 4 or 5 hours. Rod and float this surface until it is level and inch (6.4 mm) thick. The brown coat mix should contain 1 part cement materials and 3 to 5 parts sand. It may help to compact this layer with a shingle float. Over the next 48 hours, it is critical to keep the stucco moist. If the relative humidity of the air is below 70%, you will need to mist or fog the surface once or twice a day. Wait at least 7 days for the brown coat to cure, wetting periodically if it begins to dry prematurely. Some organizations recommend 10 or even up to 21 days of drying for even more crack resistance. In extremely hot or windy conditions, put up a windbreak and sun shade. You may even need to cover the moistened surface with polyethylene. The decorative finish coat contains 1 part cement materials and 1 to 3 parts sand. Optionally, it may include pigment as well to add color. Trowel and float this on in a thin layer, about inch (3 mm) thick. Allow it to cure completely before painting (if desired), following the same moist curing instructions above if the weather is hot. If you're not experienced with applying textured finishes, a texture roller is a great option for achieving high-quality results. Apply the roller evenly over the final coat.
Summary: Prepare the wall's surface. Wet the surface. Mix the scratch coat Apply and score the scratch coat. Apply the brown coat after a few hours. Keep the brown coat moist while it cures. Put on the finish coat.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Whatever method you used to cook your ribs low-and-slow, you can move them to the grill at this point. Heat an oiled grill to about 225F (107C) or a bit higher before setting the ribs over the direct heat. You can keep using the same marinade you've been basting with all along. However, you can also finish with a barbecue sauce. Brush the sauce on every 5-10 minutes to start building up a thick coating on the outside. You can use store-bought barbecue sauce or make your own. Flip the ribs occasionally during this process, every 10 minutes or so. That way, the ribs will heat evenly on both sides, browning the sauce as you go. To check for doneness, pierce the meat with a fork. It should slide through the meat fairly easily. Let the ribs rest for 5-10 minutes under tented foil. Use a sharp knife to cut the rib rack into individual ribs by cutting the meat between the bones.
Summary:
Move the ribs to direct heat on the grill. Baste with barbecue sauce or marinade. Cook the ribs 20-40 minutes more to reach peak tenderness. Slice the ribs between the bones.
