Breast
A new round of
pro beauty products
promises to help make
breast cancer history.
by Amy Dodds
Such is the proclamation from Sharon Adell, RN, breast
cancer nurse navigator at the Providence Saint Joseph Breast
Health Center in Burbank, California. Adell, who assists
women from breast biopsy to treatment to recovery,
firmly believes that “a positive self-image is essential
to long-term cancer survival.” As a result, she
works directly with non-profit Look Good…Feel
Better (lookgoodfeelbetter.org) to improve the
appearance of women undergoing cancer
therapies, as well as the hospital’s own
program, the Personal Appearance
Rehab Center, which is headed up
by manager—and fashion industry
veteran—Bebe Tamberg. “No
matter how ill you are you still want
to look good!” Tamberg avers.
“When I started this program 15
years ago, not everyone believed
in the idea. Now I get to make these
women laugh and feel beautiful again.”
So, what can you do? “Hairstylists are in such a
great position to help!” exclaims Adell. “You’re in contact
with so many women: Spread the word of prevention.
Talk to your clients about the importance of UV
protection. If they’re smoking, encourage them to stop.
Take classes to learn more about how cancer affects
the skin. Make proper exercise and nutrition part of
your beauty routine, and encourage your clients to
do the same.”
The following pages and extended coverage
on BeautyLaunchpad.com highlight the
numerous pro beauty companies that are
helping to put an end to breast cancer.
Support them and help support the cause!

“Breast cancer is with us. Who doesn’t know at least one person who’s had it?”
Actress (and former hairdresser!) Fran Drescher is an advocate for the healing power of beauty. She was
diagnosed with cancer in 2000—but only after eight doctors misdiagnosed her for two years. To highlight the
importance of early detection, she has partnered with Paul Mitchell to promote Cancer Schmancer (cancerschmancer.
org), a foundation dedicated to ensuring that all women are diagnosed in Stage 1, when cancer’s most curable.
“I didn’t experience the usual problems incurred when one undergoes post-operation treatment,” Drescher says.
“Nevertheless, my body was swollen, black and blue, misshapen, and I had stitches.” But, despite the pain and
difficulties, Drescher kept on track with her beauty routine. “It was all I could do to get my makeup done, get my
hair done, and get my mani/pedi, but it’s these things that make you feel attractive and good about yourself
when you’re otherwise down and borderline depressed.”
