($9.90*40 hours a week*50 weeks a year* 5 barbers) = $99,000 which added together is one hundred and twenty thousand dollars. Other expenses for Andre’s Hair Styling consists of the remaining fixed costs per month which is one thousand seven hundred and fifty and then multiply that by twelve months and we get twenty-one thousand dollars a year for other fixed expenses.

While it is vital to humanity’s survival, it has become far more than an important factor of health and nutrition. In food studies, the complex relationship between food and humans is explored. Food studies is more than just the study of food itself, as it is different from the traditional foodrelated areas like nutrition, molecular science and gastronomy. It is explored via multiple perspectives such as art, history, sociology, psychology, social justice and economics. With psychology having the largest connection to food studies, researchers can look deeply into eating and find a deeper meaning to help them understand humanity in a greater way. A meal has the image of unity and brings people together. Food choices can tell stories of families, groups and individuals. “The ways in which foods are eaten in various nationalities signified unconscious attributes and qualities” ( “Thinking Made Easy” ). Humans live by symbols to make sense of this world, to help organize and to give meaning to our existence. Every group, whether it is bound with religion or social status, thinks of itself as “special and exceptional and uses food to show it” ( Civitello ). During the Chinese New Year, traditional dishes are carried with great significance based upon superstitions affiliated with spirituality...

...At the age of thirteen, I became interested in styling my own hair in various ways. I styled my hair on a daily basis to achieve a different look. Once I realized how creative I was, I began to have clients from school or by word of mouth. My obsession for styling hair was enormous, so I decided that I wanted to become a cosmetologist. Styling hair allows me to make a person feel and look awesome as ever. It would bother me to see clients leave a salon with their hair still looking a mess. I took the initiative to be the best and nothing less at styling hair. My mom took me to hair shows to give me ideas on creating hairstyles for clients. One Christmas, my parents bought me a huge box of beauty supplies because of my obsession with styling hair. I would go and sit inside hair salons to get tips on how to magnify hairstyles. Being able to style hair in many ways and coloring the hair is part of the reason why cannot stop thinking about it. Styling hair gives me the ability to feel free and not limited to any hairstyle.

...Sometimes, another hair style is the alternative to frequent shampooing.
