August 21st: National Brazilian Blowout Day, National Spumoni Day, and National Senior Citizens Day.

Brazilian Blowout Day! With the summer humidity at an all-time high frizzy hair can be a hair nightmare. Therefore, on August 21st we celebrate National Brazilian Blowout Day, a way to calm your tresses. Through the use of innovative and breakthrough bonding technologies, the Brazilian Blowout treatment actually improves the health and condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle. So those with Brazilian Blowouts don’t have to fear the summer humidity and can feel confident in their look. National Brazilian Blowout Day was introduced in 2014.

National Spumoni Day! Spumoni is a molded Italian ice cream that is made with layers of different colors and flavors that usually contain candied fruits, such as cherry bit, and nuts. The typical flavors are cherry, pistachio and either chocolate or vanilla. These ice cream layers are often mixed with whipped cream. Spumoni originated in Naples, Italy and was introduced to the United States in the late 1800s. Differing from ice cream, Spumoni is sliced and never scooped. Neapolitan flavored ice cream was inspired by Spumoni. If you have never tried the delicious Italian ice cream, National Spumoni Day is the day to do so.

There are various events and activities held across the United States in recognition of National Senior Citizens Day. This day was created as a day to support, honor and show appreciation to our seniors and to recognize their achievements. Their valuable contributions to our communities create better places to live. Take time today to spend with seniors you know, and listen to their stories of wisdom and experience, gain from their hard-earned knowledge. “By the time you’re 80 you’ve learned everything. You only have to remember it.” A quote by GeorgeBurns. 'For all they have achieved throughout life and for all they continue to accomplish, we owe older citizens our thanks and a heartfelt salute. We can best demonstrate our gratitude and esteem by making sure that our communities are good places in which to mature and grow older — places in which older people can participate to the fullest and can find the encouragement, acceptance, assistance, and services they need to continue to lead lives of independence and dignity.' President Ronald Reagan – August 19, 1988 Proclamation 5847.
