Archia Hall-Owens, better known as ChiChi Owens, is not only celebrating her three-year anniversary in business, she is also bringing heightened appreciation to Alopecia Areata Awareness Month. Beauty consultant and hair specialist, Archia Hall-Owens, better known as ChiChi Owens, the owner of Adorn Beauty Enhancements. ChiChi is not only celebrating her three-year anniversary in business, but she is also bringing heightened appreciation to Alopecia Areata Awareness Month. To commemorate both, ChiChi has committed to donating $25 for every custom wig sold during the month of September to The National Alopecia Areata Foundation (NAAF).

ChiChi has had her own personal experience with combating hair loss. Relaxers, coloring, braiding and hair glue all played a part in waning her hairline. The matter was exacerbated when she could never find a wig that properly fit her smaller sized head, so she started gluing wefts of hair into stocking caps back in 2000. Her wig designs gave her a new felt since of confidence while she worked on stimulating the regrowth of her hair. ChiChi was pleasantly surprised by the compliments and requests she got from women wanting her to provide custom wigs for them as well! She launched Adorn Beauty Enhancements as a central one-stop location for all things make-up and hair. The shop is located in Atlanta and online at http://adornbeautyenhancements.com/ . A beauty industry veteran with 15 years of experience, ChiChi originally obtained degrees in human resource management and psychology. She has found that both fields come into play when dealing with clients who are tackling issues of self-esteem and confidence due to hair loss and alopecia. After working in corporate for 10 years, doing weaves and make-up part time for friends and family, she finally decided to enroll in cosmetology school at the Fayette Beauty School, and later open her own business. Her passion for hair loss led her to the renowned Toni Love Training Center where she received her non-surgical Hair Loss Certification. Unlike wigs found in retail stores, ChiChi's exclusive line of custom medical wigs and hair prosthetics are specifically designed for the woman with little or no hair. The designs are partially or totally hand tied or sewn on with a sewing machine, with a smaller cap and a base that is specifically designed to not irritate a sensitive scalp. Adorn Beauty's exclusive line of custom medical quality wigs are for all nationalities and are designed for a totally natural and completely undetectable appearance; from the amount of hair in the cap, to how the hair moves when the wig is worn. Adorn's medical custom wig prices start at $500, with custom fashion wigs starting at $100 excluding the hair. "Something like losing one's hair may not readily sound like a big deal, but our hair is essentially our crown, especially for women," explains Owens. "That's why I'm so grateful to organizations like NAAF that continually provide guidance, counseling and assistance to those effected by alopecia areata. I have found that many people are completely unaware of Alopecia Areata Awareness Month, so I'm thrilled to be able to celebrate my business anniversary while drawing attention to the dedicated month. I am fulfilled knowing that I am assisting with helping to heal hearts and heads with my knowledge,...

Mindprint's cognitive battery was developed in the Brain Behavior Lab at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. It measures 10 foundational learning skills in the domains of executive functions (including attention), processing speed, complex reasoning, and episodic memory. The assessment was normed on 10,000 children ages 8 to 21, including gifted learners and those with learning differences, and has been extensively studied and validated in the research literature. The battery can be administered in 1-2 hours on any computer. It is self-administered, allowing for any adult to proctor and optional group administration. Results are presented through a detailed report with a focus on the significance of each cognitive skill in learning. Skills are described in clear language with concrete examples so all educators can comfortably understand, discuss and communicate learning strengths and needs. While detailed score reports are available, the emphasis is on how cognitive skills drive efficient and enjoyable learning and not on numerical scores. Results are linked to research-based learning strategies that can be used by educators on an as-needed basis to support struggling learners or provide additional stimulation for advanced learners. Our recommendations for apps, games and websites can be used by educators depending on their specific needs and to nurture strengths so students become more confident, successful learners. All the reviews are written by certified teachers using a UDL-inspired rubric so individual selections can be made by academic topic with consideration of a students’ cognitive strengths and needs. In short, they provide an effective and efficient way to identify students' learning strengths and needs, that when used in combination with existing measures, provides a much more comprehensive picture of what each student needs to be successful. They empower educators and improve their efficiency by enabling them to find strategies to support a struggling learner if and when they need them. They enable them to supplement their existing teaching resources with apps, games, and websites organized by academic topic that will be a good fit for individual learners. Mindprint is the most effective, research-based first step for every student to learn more easily and efficiently.
