@shortii12341 I am so sorry about your aunt. I know that has to be hard. Good for you for scheduling your colonoscopy. It is so easy. The worst of it is the prep but you will breeze thru it. It is so much better to be safe than sorry when it's too late. My husband is the worst. He will NOT go and that's crazy.
@lanaindiana My dad won't go. He claims he don't have to cause he doesn't have it in his genes. And he also says he's fine and he doesn't need one. I feel sorry for her kids cause they have to get one at 21!
Sorry to hear about your friend :( I lost my mother when she was 56 it was the worst day of my life we were very, very close (not to colon cancer though) anyway I just love your videos i have been totally addicted to watching them since i found you on you tube and you are hilarious I loved the story about your colonoscopy.... you really make me laugh and i love your uplifting attitude its refreshing :) You look fabulous and i wouldnt bat an eye to the haters out there. Have a wonderful day!
Hi Lana, I should talk to my mom about this, she's 57 and want her to check this out. On the other hand i want to say that you are awesome, you have my dream career as I always wanted to be a flight attendant since I can remember... I had to settle with Real Estate. Have a good day and thanks for sharing all that you do :)
I think you'd look amazing with a short asymmetrical bob (like v.beckham) as your hairs really light blonde and you have a FAB jawline and features.
I love the fact you take so much care of yourself even as a sun worshipper. Just remember to look after those pretty blue eyes as they're the most likely to get sun damaged by the UV rays.
*hugs* Cancer is horrible, 60% of my family have it (hereditory form). I just wanted to hug you when your eyes welled up. *love and prayers to u sugar*
My own dad waited till he was 58 to get a colonoscapy (prompted by stomach aches). Long story short, he started chemo a month later for colon cancer and died 4 years later when I was in college :/ I am going to start getting them at age 35 just to be safe. It's good that people like you mention it to all your viewers. Thank you :D
@TheSublimeAgent Oh Michael~ I'm so sorry about your dad. I imagine he was so proud of you. My husband is "older" and just refuses to do it. You go get it done early. We want you here for a VERY long time! It's not bad at all and the "twilight" sleep is so restful. ❤
Thnx Lana for talking about Colonoscopy. My friends mum ignored her symptoms for years, and was sick all the time but was too afraid to go to the doctor and too ashamed to talk about her health problems, finally she got so sick and was hospitalized..she died within 24 hours of getting a diagnosis for stage 4 Colon Cancer. So, you did the right thing by having a check up.
I loved this vid as well...you are so much fun..love your sense of humor :-))
that was so easy! i'd love to see what you'd do with my hair! (below my butt, heavy, and silky) i can't do anything with it! u might just pull all my hair out!! haha
Congratulations for advising colonoscopy. It is a life-saver. You are right when you say the test is actually a breeze; you zone out a little and the nurses and doctors are always so kind. It's a must. You go grrrl !!
i think you look gorgeous with your long hair....why should we cut off the hair and have a boy cut only because getting older.....don't matter what your sister says =)
Great PSA and well done! Now… about your hair… it’s glorious. Years ago, from a Dr Seuss reader, a little boy asked his Gramma why she cut her hair. She said she didn’t want to look like an old lady. He said… Now you look like an old man. HaHa! I chuckle all these years later when I look in the mirror at my elbow-length silver tresses. Keep on growing!
Sorry for your loss, thanks for sharing so much of your life. I was wondering if you had ever tried Bare Minerals? BTW, keep on rocking the long hair, mine is short, but yours looks great long!
i am so HAPPY i found you!! i am 44 and i love youtube videos but having a 19 year old tell me about skin care/etc ?!?! i am so happy to find a woman of my age on youtube!!! btw- a couple of years back my best friend who was 36 years old died on colon cancer - so we all must take time to have a colonoscopy.
oh my! i really cannot stand when older women feel the need to cut their all their hair off once they reach a certain age. my mother in law is like that. i admire you lana! you are a beautiful grown woman. keep your hair long & blonde, its gorgeous.
I just came across your channel....wow I always think that when I hit 50 i will be like you, still wanting to look fabulous, i mean been 50- can really stop anyone from doing so, loved your channel =]
OK now Lana ... I HAVE to subscribe now...I find it so funny that you had the note given... "No head up Ass... >>>>>!! Sounds like something I would do! LOL LOL LOL LOL HA HA HA ...LOVE >IT
But you are correct it's good to get one..I also remember patient's leaving there in tears cause of the bad news they received..that was so sad..I am so glad the hospital I work at is finally getting a female doctor..she's gonna have a waiting list going out the door with so many female patient's..lol..
but I am glad everything turned out great for you Lana..so glad..did they say how long til they see you again?
I work at a hospital and in the Endoscopy area and you should hear those nurse's telling their patient's to let loose the air or fart..those patient's can let one rip with a loudness and such a long one too...did u have to stay on your left side to do this? they also won't discharge you until you let that air out of your system..some sit in there in such agony and pain cause they can't pass the air...walking around, giving them soda and then finally the let it out and such a relief.
you look so beautiful.. i didn't even thaught that you are in 50.. wow.. you look younger than that.. i am from ethiopia.. and i just never seen well mannered women.. and i didn't know that you were adopted.. i had in my mind that you are from wealthy family.. but you have this beautiful personality.. i love you.. girl.. you look good .. i am being so honest..HONEST TO God..
You just like my late grandmother, she was always telling me to never forget to get yearly check ups and get all the procedures done when they need to be, thats one of my earliest memories ever XP her telling me to get a mammogram when I was older.. ='( I miss her.. ANYWAY. THANKYOU for saying something reminding people to get it done! preventative procedures are a MUST HAVE.
LANA, PLEASE ADD "SELENIUM " a trace mineral ,bought at any W-MART, HEALTH FOOD ect-I learned many years ago that it literaly preserves, it fights those bad cell's and girl your hair ,skin,and nails will as well stay youthful, I learned this from a 91 year old client, who's son is a pharmacist here in TX- She looked fab at her age. I have taken 2 at bedtime for almost 20 years and along with the other vits you mention I live in Trust ,HOPE,and,FAITH IN GOD - LOL BUT GET SELINIUM.
I just want to say how REFRESHING it is that you embrace your age! Your honest and you don't lie about it! I think you look absolutely GORGEOUS!! and aspire to look like this when I'm your age!
Oh Girl... I used to lie like a fiend about my age then realized how stupid it sounded so now I embrace my 53 years. My grandkids don't care how old I am nor do they care about my wrinkles and laugh lines so WHY should I?
I just can't get over what a sweetheart you are! Not only do I enjoy watching your work, but I actually love listening to you talk and tell your stories. =)
I pray this screening will be fine and all will be well. Sometimes i think you in the medical profession know TOO much and that makes it worse for you. My brother is a doctor and his entire internship, he feared all of his loved ones had whatever disease, ailment etc that he saw. I really believe you will be fine. Let me know how it goes, OK?
you talking about having a mullet in the 80's made me think....will you post a video of some old pics of you I think it would be fun you could tag people and see how they looked too
You are absalutly stunningly georgous!!! I wish i look half as good as you when i hit 50 - i'm 28 and you look better then me now ha ha! your an inspiration.
Again, another great video!! When I heard you tell your hair nightmare I had flashbacks!! No kidding. Went in for a trim with your length hair and came out with it almost up to my ears!! And my husband says "what is going on with the back of your hair?" It was a mullet back there!!!! Talk about being traumatized. Unfortunately, that is one of my "better" hair horror experiences.The men seem to do the best job. Girls are evil!! hahaaha j/k
I am also 52, and I feel we can do whatever we want with our hair now. We have made it this far, and we don't have to listen to silly "rules for older ladies" if we feel good about how we look. I love your look!. What is funny to me is if we make it to 72 or 82, we will look back, and so wish we looked this young again! :) You look fabulous and beautiful for 52! I loved your story about the doctor and the note! I have had my colonoscopy, too. You are right, the prep. is the worst part.
I love watching your videos and thank you for the great advice for us gals over 50. You have such a great personality as if you're talking with girlfriends. I'm subscribing to your channel and look forward to more fun videos about makeup and taking care of ourselves. Keep it up!
no.colonoscopy does NOT hurt. don't put it off if you have insurance, it is paid for if you are over 50. and the rest of her story about the terrible hairdresser attacking mature women's long blonde hair is MY STORY too.lol. two hairdressers at separate times went nuts thinning mine and its taking a long time to grow back right and i saw the same Kasem interview years ago too. take lots of vitamins although a choline and inositol is great for hair.. don't over do vitamin A though. read on that.
Hi Lana, I just watched this video and your air brush legs video. I am 42, was thinking of cutting my longish (past shoulders) hair.. nope not now! I am going to start adding Vit A &D to my daily vitamins! Love your hair, your attitude and legs!!! No haircuts and I'm leaving for the gym now!!! Talk about inspiration.. you go!! (My husband is ten years older... I'm going to make him an appt! Thanks.. I want to keep him around )
Kasey Kassum, reminds me of long trips down to my grandmothers' house in South Bend, we listened to 96.3 every Sunday when we'd drive there. Great memories, and thanks for the awesome vidoes and tips:)
I use hot rollers all the time because I have tons of hair and it is the fastest easiest way to do my hair BUT, it takes 15 large rollers to get all my hair....LOL. Velcro doesn't work on me *sniff*
oh... your accent reminds me of my bff... you said I just do the ruts... love it... it's that indiana mid- western accent... love it!!! Your hair is beautiful...
*_* omg, I know what you mean about hair "stylists" , more like torturers because they never do what you ask. I think sometimes certain ones have it in for us, seriously. I had one gay hairdresser who I trusted with my life because I knew he was trying to make me beautiful, not destroy me. I'll never go to a woman as long as I live.
So smart! They get you in that chair and start talking to you and the next thing you know, they twirl that chair around and it's.... YIKES!!!!! I seriously haven't gone for more than a trim in 5 years!!!
Lana, I'm so glad your informing people about getting a colonoscopy. I tell everyone I know over 40 to have it done. My dear sister passed away last year from colon cancer. She didn't know she had it (she thought it stomach problems and the Lupus she had suffered with for over 20 years). My sister suffered from so much pain the last 5 weeks of her life. My mother, son and I miss her so much.....she was only 53 years old.
Wonderful video. I am so sorry about your friend. My aunt and uncle both died of colon cancer. Thank you for getting the message out there. Early detection is crucial. I am 57 and getting ready to schedule my second colonoscopy. You are gorgeous and fabulous.
You are brilliant to get another colonoscopy! It's not that bad and it can save your life! Good luck with the results. Let me know how you come out....
You don't even look 53, you look longer. Plus, I think long hair is for any age. It's your hair, you look beautiful, and you're healthy. Do what makes you feel great and what you feel works for you.
you're welcome! :D girl you gotta help mee! i just watched your work out video thing, and I really want to lose weight but I need more motivation! unfortunately i don't know where to get that cd, but i'm going to go to the gym now 6 times a week =) <3
Hi!!! Good for you going to the gym 6 days a week!!! Try beachbody com and look for POWER 90. It's got 2 DVD's 1st part is for beginners and after 30 days switch to part 2 and it will kick your Butt!!!
I so agree. Sometimes those stylists get you in that chair and they lose all ability to think about what YOU want. I hope you have the BEST Valentine's Day~~~<3
Long hair is wonderful on us women over 50. I have people tell me all the time to cut it. Don´t let anyone tell you to cut your hair off if you like it long. I love it.
I want to be one of those stylish older ladies in my 80's with long hair all wrapped up on my head. I'm not going to cut it off until I want to... maybe NEVER.
NOOOO your NOT TOO OLD FOR long hair.. I cannot seeing the typical SHORT hair , when women hit 45 htey think they need to desex themselves with SHORT hair.. KUDOS to you.. you are simply AMAZING.. I wanna be like you when I GROW UP !!
The hair color? I use Clairol Hairpaint which is just a 2 product bleach, I think. I have used the same product for over 25 years. It's very gentle and I only do the roots, never the ends. I leave it on for 15 minutes, then shampoo.
You know i cut dye and streak my own hair i went to beauty school.But i know what you mean about getting your hair cut off it happened to me.I like how simple you are and you do your own roots like me!Great videos you have a great personality and your funny!
Oh, bless your heart. Your husband is a true hero to me. Give him my best. He is doing a great job.
If you ever see me on a flight, be sure to let me know. I love to have fun and think I am funny.... my husband doesn't "get" me tho... I waste alot of good material on him. Ha! He is anal... I swear that's why he married me... spell my name backwards... anal.
oh my gosh, you are too funny! my husband is in iraq so most days i look forward to watching your videos just to have a good laugh and relax for a bit from the everyday stresses of life. i fly a lot and i wish so badly i could be on a flight that you were on b/c i know i would laugh the whole way!
Thanks so much for showing how and what you do to your hair. :) I am sorry for the loss of your friend and my prayers are for the family and friends. :)
you are a breath of fresh air, thanks for your wonderful videos !

Hi Lana, I just watched this video and your air brush legs video. I am 42, was thinking of cutting my longish (past shoulders) hair.. nope not now! I am going to start adding Vit A &D to my daily vitamins! Love your hair, your attitude and legs!!! No haircuts and I'm leaving for the gym now!!! Talk about inspiration.. you go!! (My husband is ten years older... I'm going to make him an appt! Thanks.. I want to keep him around )

Noooo, don't cut your hair! Good job getting your husband to get a colonoscopy. It could save his life!
It's a piece of cake, really.

Kasey Kassum, reminds me of long trips down to my grandmothers' house in South Bend, we listened to 96.3 every Sunday when we'd drive there. Great memories, and thanks for the awesome vidoes and tips:)

Gawd, just hearing Casey Kassum's name takes you back, doesn't it? LOVED his America's Top 40. I guess now we have Ryan Seacreast and that's OK too.

I use hot rollers all the time because I have tons of hair and it is the fastest easiest way to do my hair BUT, it takes 15 large rollers to get all my hair....LOL. Velcro doesn't work on me *sniff*

*_* omg, I know what you mean about hair "stylists" , more like torturers because they never do what you ask. I think sometimes certain ones have it in for us, seriously. I had one gay hairdresser who I trusted with my life because I knew he was trying to make me beautiful, not destroy me. I'll never go to a woman as long as I live.

So smart! They get you in that chair and start talking to you and the next thing you know, they twirl that chair around and it's.... YIKES!!!!! I seriously haven't gone for more than a trim in 5 years!!!
PS. I LOVE your YouTube name! XOXOX

Do what makes you happy. I will cut my hair when I am in a nursing home and then I may hae to think about it!

Lana, I'm so glad your informing people about getting a colonoscopy. I tell everyone I know over 40 to have it done. My dear sister passed away last year from colon cancer. She didn't know she had it (she thought it stomach problems and the Lupus she had suffered with for over 20 years). My sister suffered from so much pain the last 5 weeks of her life. My mother, son and I miss her so much.....she was only 53 years old.
calady11 3 years ago
I am SO so sorry about your sister! That would just devastate me to lose my sweet sister. My heart breaks for you.
I tell EVERYONE I know to get it done. It's a piece of cake and sooo important!!!
God Bless your family. Love and Good Wishes to you, my friend xoxoxox

I think their deffintion of "trim" is: I only know how to do short hair!
I haven't been to a salon for 10 years and won't ever go back!!! I haven't cut my hair either:)
Thank you for being so frank and honest Lana=~}

Wonderful video. I am so sorry about your friend. My aunt and uncle both died of colon cancer. Thank you for getting the message out there. Early detection is crucial. I am 57 and getting ready to schedule my second colonoscopy. You are gorgeous and fabulous.

You are brilliant to get another colonoscopy! It's not that bad and it can save your life! Good luck with the results. Let me know how you come out....
Love Ya <333

You don't even look 53, you look longer. Plus, I think long hair is for any age. It's your hair, you look beautiful, and you're healthy. Do what makes you feel great and what you feel works for you.

Long hair looks beautiful on you!!
I do my own haircolor as well...the girls used to bleach it out tooo much and I always looked washed out!!! Sometimes YOU have to do it yourself......

I so agree. Sometimes those stylists get you in that chair and they lose all ability to think about what YOU want. I hope you have the BEST Valentine's Day~~~<3

Long hair is wonderful on us women over 50. I have people tell me all the time to cut it. Don´t let anyone tell you to cut your hair off if you like it long. I love it.

I want to be one of those stylish older ladies in my 80's with long hair all wrapped up on my head. I'm not going to cut it off until I want to... maybe NEVER.

One question for you, I am a natural blond (with grayish browish at the foots) will the highlighting cover the gray or will it just make it white?

Hi There! Oh, geez.. I don't know. Try calling them with your questions.
1-800-CLAIROL. They are so helpful and should answer all your questions. I hope that helps.Thanks for Watching~~~Lana
lanaindiana 3 years ago
The hair color? I use Clairol Hairpaint which is just a 2 product bleach, I think. I have used the same product for over 25 years. It's very gentle and I only do the roots, never the ends. I leave it on for 15 minutes, then shampoo.

Oh, bless your heart. Your husband is a true hero to me. Give him my best. He is doing a great job.
If you ever see me on a flight, be sure to let me know. I love to have fun and think I am funny.... my husband doesn't "get" me tho... I waste alot of good material on him. Ha! He is anal... I swear that's why he married me... spell my name backwards... anal.

oh my gosh, you are too funny! my husband is in iraq so most days i look forward to watching your videos just to have a good laugh and relax for a bit from the everyday stresses of life. i fly a lot and i wish so badly i could be on a flight that you were on b/c i know i would laugh the whole way!
