Salon visits can be expensive and time-consuming, especially for busy, on-the-go, women who color their hair regularly. In this Janette's Tips 'N' Sips, Janette shares practical beauty tips for blending roots into existing color, highlights, balayage, and blonde hair between salon appointments. Whether you have full color, partial color, highlights, grey coverage, or blonde hair, you'll learn how to soften the contrast between new growth and existing color so your roots become less noticeable and your hair looks fresher longer. Janette discusses products she personally uses, including Arkemusa Milano Color Plus Shampoo, John Frieda Violet Crush Purple Shampoo & Conditioner, Schwarzkopf Root Retoucher, and even baby powder to help absorb oil, add volume, and disguise regrowth. She also shares simple styling techniques that help distribute darker tones with lighter tones throughout the hair, making roots blend more naturally into highlights and reducing the appearance of harsh lines of regrowth. The goal isn't to hide your roots completely. It's to reduce contrast, brighten existing color, create dimension, and help your hair look salon-fresh longer while saving time and money between appointments.

Join me as I step behind the scenes and attend a special May 8th performance of A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical at Toronto's beautiful Princess of Wales Theatre. This evening was particularly meaningful for me. I don't get out to theatre or other events downtown often these days, and attending this special event reminded me just how much I miss my former lifestyle of being out in the community, covering red carpets, attending entertainment events, and sharing these experiences with all of you. More than just a night at the theatre, it was an opportunity to reconnect with a part of myself that has always loved storytelling, entertainment, the arts, and the excitement of live events. A Beautiful Noise is an uplifting celebration of the life, music, and legacy of legendary singer-songwriter Neil Diamond, featuring beloved hits including: 🎵 Sweet Caroline 🎵 America 🎵 Song Sung Blue 🎵 Cracklin' Rosie 🎵 Cherry, Cherry 🎵 I Am…I Said …and many more! The production stars former American Idol winner Nick Fradiani in the role of Neil Diamond, delivering a remarkable performance that captures the spirit and music of one of the world's most beloved entertainers. Come along with me as I share highlights from this special evening and why it felt so good to be back out enjoying the magic of live theatre once again.
Is FIFA still just about football? Or has it become one of the biggest entertainment stages in the world? In this Janette's Take On..., Janette explores FIFA's growing focus on celebrity performers, concerts, culture, fashion, and controversy.

But are these performances enhancing the fan experience or distracting from football? Join the conversation and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
