A Great Month to be a Guy

A

s June arrives, we realize we’ve nearly made it through half the year—and wonder how that could be possible! It feels like just yesterday we were thinking about New Year’s resolutions and Valentine’s Day gifts. Now, we’re planning for summer—long days and warm nights, grilling, pools and everything else the year’s middle months bring along.

Why is this month so great to be a guy?

Lindsey Hejlek, Dana Lapinel, Missy Will

For starters, if you’re a dad, you get a full day that’s completely dedicated to you. Kick up your feet, grab a cold drink and enjoy being the center of attention on June 18.

CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHERS

Julie Brown Patton, Michael Rainero, Carly Ciardullo

If you’re not a dad, don’t worry—there’s still a lot you can enjoy. Grab a dozen (or two) on June 2 for National Doughnut Day—just don’t forget to hit the gym afterward. Cast a line on June 18 for Go Fishing Day, and clear out your phone’s camera roll for National Selfie Day (everyone’s still all about that, right?) on June 21. Finish off the month with a great breakfast for Waffle Iron Day on June 29.

CORPORATE TEAM

We’ll all join you to enjoy the first day of summer on June 20.

FOR MEN'S HAIRSTYLES AND GROOMING

SECURE EVERYDAY SOLUTIONS TO LOOK YOUR ABSOLUTE BEST ARTICLE JULIE BROWN PATTON

S

ome people predict men's hair trends during 2017 will return to classic barbering, with more blending between the top and sides of haircuts, as well as shorter beards and more clean-shaven looks.

However, the "guy-smart stylists" of Sports Clips Haircuts of Chesterfield Commons at 202 THF Blvd., proclaim the manly, rustic look is still very much in vogue.

8

Chesterfield Lifestyle | June 2017

"The popular look is sort of lumberjacky," Sports Clips manager Alicia Michalik says.

"Beards are here to stay, even through summer, and many men use oil and wax in them."

Michalik says a trendy men's haircut locally is the pompadour, a style stemming from the chic cuts during the 1950s among male rockabilly artists and actors. It works best with longer locks while adding a slick look to the length. It's created by combing

back the sides of the hair while fanning the top of the hair forward and curling it over itself. Men often use a wet-look, stronghold gel product, and comb for the current interpretation of this look.

Undercut haircuts are a top trend in men who are 20 to 30 years old, followed by regular fades for men 30 to 50 in age and then businessmen cuts or executive styles for men aged 50-plus, Michalik adds. CONTINUED >

MEN'S GROOMING

Q

PRODUCTS ABOUND

uality products formulated to address guys’ unique hair care

Undercut men hairstyles ref lect trimmer sides and more length on top. Some men apply molding products to damp hair and tug at the ends to create movement on top. Because this cut has been a staple hair trend in men’s runway looks and is common among film and television celebrities, salon teams know how to approach it. They first should ask clients about associated individual considerations, such as desired frequency of trims, wavy spots, potential cowlicks and willingness to use styling products.

Fade hairstyles are popular short cuts, sometimes also called the military reg. This cut simply means hair tapers from the bottom to the top. Hair at the sides and back is cut as close as possible or desired and fades up into almost any length on top.

Typically, one would start with a clipper guard No. 3, and determine where to place the fade line, switching the guard to a No. 2 and eventually to a No. 1 lower on the head. Hair can be neatly styled or given a more texturized, messy look using gel, paste or pomade.

An executive style cut is a classic look, with a more even length all over the head, typically done with fine-cutting clipper blades.

Michalik indicates their other men-specific salon services, such as hot steam towel wraps, massaging conditioners and neck and shoulder relaxing treatments, are also well-liked.

needs and lifestyles are readily available in Chesterfield. Products can be secured to combat thinning hair or dry scalps, in addition to taming unruly curls. American Crew, for example, offers grooming creams, defining pastes, molding clays, liquid wax, boost powders, styling gels, super glue and grooming sprays. Paul Mitchell Tea Tree shampoos and Scalp Care Anti-Thinning Root Lift Foam also are popular. Nioxin products promise thicker, more dense hair. All three of these product lines are available at the local Sports Clips salon.

Because the 18|8 Fine Men’s Salon team at 1723 Clarkson Road believes no hairstyle is complete without the correct products, they partnered with the industry’s leading hair and grooming companies to offer guests the right tools to create their new looks at home.

Their stylists also are experienced in the art of straight-razor shaves and other grooming services. Available exclusively at 18|8 is Griff’s Styling and Barbering products, such as Scalp Cleanser, Stache Wax and Post-Shave Balance Balm. For the intended audience, Griff's also provides products called Cool Head, Grease, High & Tight and Grit.

18|8 also carries American Crew and Paul Mitchell's Mitch products, in addition to a product line from Go 247 Men for high-quality shampoos, conditioners, styling and skin care products. All Go 247 hair care products are scented with a revitalizing blend of ginseng and macadamia nut, while the company's skin care products feature the brand’s signature lavender ylang ylang fragrance.

To top off great looks, men are investing more time into facial grooming at local spots, such as Keith's Barber Styling at 1662 Clarkson Road, and Four Seasons Barber Shop at 40 Four Seasons Shopping Center. Popular options are hot lather neck shaves, as well as the mustache and beard trims. Grooming also includes tidying eyebrows.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT

CONCUSSIONS SYMPTOMS, TREATMENT AND PREVENTION ARTICLE LINDSEY HEJLEK, MPT

A

concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury often caused by impact to the head, neck or face. The injury is often caused by shaking or jarring of the brain inside the skull or from a force transmitted to the head from contact elsewhere on the body. Sports injuries are often associated with concussions. However, they can also occur after a fall, car accident or whiplash injury. This type of brain injury leads to a variety of symptoms, including physical, emotional, postural a cognitive impairments.

Physical symptoms of a concussion include headache, dizziness, nausea, sensitivity to light or noise, blurred vision, fatigue and impaired sleep. Emotional symptoms include irritability, sadness, anxiety and depression which impact cognitive abilities such as concentrating, thinking clearly and keeping up with work or school. Balance can also become affected, and symptoms of dizziness may occur. These symptoms appear immediately after an injury or gradually worsen within days or months. It is possible that people will not recognize or admit to having difficulties or fully understand the impact of a concussion on daily life.

Concussions occur at any age and are often missed in older adults. Worsening headache or confusion may warrant immediate medical attention especially in older adults taking blood thinners. Serious symptoms such as weakness, numbness or slurred speech indicate the need for immediate care. At the time of impact, you may or may not lose consciousness.

There are no diagnostic tests for a concussion. If suspected, the athlete or child should be removed from play until medically cleared. Diagnosis is made based on symptoms. Trauma to the brain can result in abnormal signals

from the vestibular system. The brain relies on the vestibular system for visual and postural stability, thus, if there is an injury to this system, symptoms such as dizziness and imbalance will likely ensue.

Concussion and its subsequent symptoms typically improve within seven to 10 days, but the severity of the concussion, age, prior level of health and previous concussions may affect the recovery. Symptoms persisting beyond seven to 10 days may indicate the need for further medical attention. Your physician may recommend work or school accommodations and determine the need for further medical referral to a neurologist, psychologist, athletic trainer, occupational or vestibular physical therapist.

A concussion is a treatable diagnosis. Vestibular physical therapists help with headache management, dizziness and balance. The therapist will tailor an exercise prescription to improve eye coordination, musculoskeletal pain, balance and return to play.

Appropriate rest is important for recovery. Avoid multitasking, activities that increase headache or dizziness, and screen time on computers, smartphones or TVs. Get plenty of sleep and eat a well-balanced diet. Consult with friends or family when making important decisions or seeking medical treatment.

Concussion prevention is key. Wearing a helmet during recreational or organized sports including biking, rollerblading and ice skating is important to decrease the risk of concussion. Elderly populations should prevent falls by removing rugs, improving lighting and using assistive devices.

For more information on post-concussion rehabilitation, contact St. Luke’s Therapy Services at 314.205.6185.

raham Hill is the driving force behind the St. Louis Motorcars sales team. Born in 1962 in England, Graham moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 1985. His first job in the American car business was with The Steering Wheel, a Maserati dealer on Sunrise Boulevard. In 1987, he answered a job advertisement and joined Bentley and Rolls-Royce Motorcars in Fort Lauderdale, becoming the youngest Rolls-Royce and Bentley salesperson in the U.S. Graham rapidly became one of the top sales producers in the U.S. market, and by 1997 he was officially the top Bentley salesperson in the United States. After 20 years in Florida, Graham moved to St. Louis to open Bentley St. Louis with his partner Jim Mills in December 2002.

Chesterfield Lifestyle | June 2017

Hill’s favorite vehicle is the Rolls-Royce, possibly the most prestigious brand in the world and often the choice of royalty. Lately, he enjoys the thrill of drophead driving in the Dawn, Rolls-Royce’s newest bespoke convertible. In the Dawn, he’s not a spectator of the world, but at one with it. Hill lives, works and plays in Chesterfield, the city he loves. He enjoys working out at the Chesterfield Athletic Club, dining at Annie Gunn's and walking the trails and Monarch Levee in Chesterfield Valley.

Giving back to the community is a priority of his. He takes a special interest in The Variety Club and Kids in the Middle by donating his time, making charitable contributions and being an advocate.

While maintaining impeccable business citizenship, Hill strives to make St. Louis Motorcars the premier luxury and supercar dealership in the Midwest.

JIM MILLS, DEALER PRINCIPAL PICTURED NEXT TO 2016 LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR ROADSTER

I

n the 15 years before starting St. Louis Motorcars with his business partner, Graham Hill, in 2001, Jim Mills ran a $200 million corporation and held positions of increasing responsibility with a $100 million-plus corporation. When Mills opened St. Louis Motorcars in 2002, he learned to put his ego in check. He continues to live his dream of being associated with the finest brand names of motorcars in the world and the people that own and drive them. As a car enthusiast himself, he enjoys talking with customers about their shared passions. From engineering details to color combinations to zero to 60 mph times, it has been nonstop enjoyment for Mills since the dealership opened.

In his spare time, Mills has a passion for automobiles, outdoor activities, his family and dogs. He loves getting his hands dirty! He

supports several charities and religious organizations in town and enjoys everything Chesterfield and the surrounding St. Louis community has to offer.

When asked about his favorite car model, he couldn’t name fewer than a dozen, the mark of a true automotive enthusiast!

He has an appreciation for everything, from classic muscle cars to sophisticated touring and exotic supercars. Currently, Mills is enamored with the all-new 2017 Bentley Bentayga, the world’s most powerful SUV. Bentayga is the most luxurious, hand-built, all-terrain vehicle on Earth—a car where technology, speed and power have been brought together to offer an extraordinary driving experience.

Parting Thoughts

Aunt Dru’s

Old Fashioned

Banana Bread with a Twist ARTICLE MISSY WILL

O

ne of the smells that remind me of my home is my Aunt Dru's banana

bread. I make this when I want to bring back memories of my childhood, and I am sure it will for you as well.

• 1/2 cup butter or a little more • 1 cup sugar • 2 eggs, beaten • 3 bananas finely crushed (for a bit more moist and delicious, try 4 bananas) • 1 1⁄2 cups flour (you can use gluten-free; almond and coconut flour work well) • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 1/2 teaspoon salt, kosher • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla (I use the paste) • 2/3 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)

DIRECTIONS

1. Cream together butter and sugar.

2. Add eggs and crushed bananas.

3. Combine well.

4. Sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Add to creamed mixture. Add vanilla and walnuts.

5. Mix until combined. Do not overmix.

6. Pour into greased and floured loaf pan.

7. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes.

8. Keeps well refrigerated, but it will not last long.
