  • German Hair Salon Offers Rare Treatment for Customers - Snake Therapy!

    Are you afraid of slithering snakes but also in urgent need of a haircut? Well one hair salon in Germany may be the perfect place for you to kill two birds with one stone. Dresden hair salon 'Haar-Mode-Team' has a unique answer for customer anxiety and tension before their hair cut - a pulsating neck massage from snake called Python Monty which is not recommended for people with ophiophobia, or fear of snakes. The 13 year old reptile sits snugly around customer's throats as hairdresser Falk Dohler gets to work with his scissors. Of course, anyone who has seen the cartoon version of the Jungle Book knows that pythons like Kaa constrict their muscular bodies around their prey to suffocate it. Wrapped around the neck, Python Monty is in prime position to cut off airflow, but has been trained to suppress his killer instincts and give relaxing massages instead. Even snakes can get tuckered out, and we certainly wouldn't want Python Monty to be the least bit stressed before letting him coil up around our necks. If you want a special snake massage before your haircut at Haar Mode Team, you need to make an appointment with Python Monty weeks in advance. A 30 minute session with Monty costs €35, or about $38.

  • Hijabs and Long Hemlines on Show at London’s First 'Modest Fashion Week'

    Welcome to "Modest Fashion Week," a fashion show that features the latest in prudent clothing which covers as much of the female form as possible. Models hit the catwalk wearing hijabs, long-hem dresses, and other modest and religiously-minded apparel as the first annual Modest Fashion week kicked off at the Saatchi Gallery in the UK capital on Saturday. Some 40 designers displayed garments at the event, which aims to pitch fashionable new products to anyone who prefers a more modest style compared to more revealing clothing. Of course, the main segment is practitioners of religions which tend to encourage followers to abide by centuries-old fashion traditions. Much of the apparel paraded on the catwalk featured fashion themes taken from Islamic tradition. The event was organised by UK based e-commerce modest fashion company 'Haute Elan' who say that modest fashion is one of the fastest growing consumer markets. That should come as no surprise - the Pew Research Center has determined that the World's population of Muslims will grow twice as fast as the rest of the world and that Islam is expected to become larger than Christianity by the end of the century. The market certainly looks large and if Muslim countries grow more stable, Western companies who got in on the trend early may experience some major demand and major growth. Alongside the catwalk was a show hall where attendees could try on and even buy apparel shown off by many of the designers present. Debenhams became the first major British retailer to begin offering different hijab styles and brands as part of its regular collection. Who knows? Perhaps the future of fashion lies in the modest traditions of the past.

  • Dentist Carves Putin and Trump Images Onto Patient's False Teeth

    A dentist from the Russian resort city of Sochi completed an unusual request - he carved miniature images of US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin onto the surface of false teeth belonging to the patient using thin brushes and special ceramic paint. The portraits of both presidents are engraved on the inner side of the dental crowns of the two upper posterior teeth, so any person would have to make a lot of effort and use specialized equipment to see anything. However, the patient still has the knowledge that these two presidents are keeping watch over his mouth. And the dentist, well, Mr. Lechenko may have just started a new trend in beauty dentistry and it would come as no surprise to us if he suddenly begins to receive a large influx of orders from people wishing to get their children and loved ones engraved on their pearly whites.
