What are the rarest eye, hair and skin colors in humans?
Rarest hair color- red… and by red I mean true red, as in possessing the Mc1R gene.Rarest eye color- amber or green (Nicole Richie’s eyes are an example of true amber eyes)Rarest skin color- blue. Yes, that’s a real thing, no, not referencing Smurfs. People with a rare condition called methemoglobinemia have actual blue skin. The Blue Fugates of Kentucky are the only known family carrying this trait.EDIT: So apparently the picture I found online is of Paul Karason, who had argyria, not methemoglobinemia. Still, the rarest skin color is blue.Darn… Google’s not always right.EDIT 2: I’ve been getting a lot of comments about violet eyes. If they existed, yes, they would be the rarest eye color, however scientists have yet to prove the existence of eyes that are truly purple. Elizabeth Taylor, for example, had deep blue eyes that simply appeared violet in certain lighting.Maybe this picture is irrelevant, but it’s Elizabeth Taylor! And note how her eyes are… not purple (striking nonetheless).
Why are Botox and filler injections so expensive?
My guess is that the markup is around 50%. Botox and Juvederm are actually low margin products for the plastic surgeons.Let me break it down for you. One vial of Botox, which contains 100 units, typically sell for ~ $500 dollars to Physicians. Because the physicians have to reconstitute Botox from powder to liquid form, they typically can't get all 100 units out. They'll lose ~ 10 units from reconstitution. Say they get 90 units out of it, then it cost them about $6/unit. Typically they use about 20 - 30 units for glabellar furrows and brows, which result in product cost of about $120 - $180 per injection.The fillers can be more expensive. If you are using Juvederm Voluma, which can last two years, the manufacturer is selling it for ~ $1000/syringe. For Juvederm XC or Restylane, you can probably get it from manufacturers for $350/syringe. If the physician is very popular and use a lot of products, he can get a discount of up to 20% from the manufacturers. But most physicians don't get that much discount. 5% - 10% discount is more common.In total, you have about ~ $500 - $550 in product cost (Botox + Juvederm). The physicians time is trivial. I bet it took the doctor 10 - 15 minutes max to do the injection itself.You can get more information from here CosmeSys | Private, free, personal “try-on” site for plastic surgeryCosmetic enhancement is an area where people, frankly, should negotiate.

Why does EVERYONE dye their hair black?
I don't like it very much at all. I see tons of girls with black hair who never in a million years could pull it off. I saw this girl once with black hair and an inch of blonde roots. I mean, if you want to dye your hair dark, go for a darker brown, NOT black. Also, my friend she has naturally reddish-blonde hair and it was obvious her hair was not naturally black when she dyed it that way. She is also covered head-to-toe in freckles. I mean, really? Try a more natural color. Black looks awful on most people. African-americans can have black hair, and so can other dark-skinned people. But why white people? Do you think it looks edgy, or cool, or what? I don't get it.
Does Black Hair Make You Look Paler ?
It really doesn't have anything to do with your skin color as much as your undertones. If you have warm undertones it'll look fine on you but if you have cool undertones black hair will wash you out. To find out your under tones you can look at the veins on your wrist, if they're green you have warm undertones. If they're blue or purple you have cool undertones. If it is a mix, you are neutral. Personally, I have lighter skin but warm undertones and I would stick with lighter hair, blonds or browns. Natural hair color is always the best.
