'World Seder Connect Boston sends out "Seder in a Box" to young families. Boston S Are you terrified of brushing your hair? renew HAIR & SKIN CENTER is rescuing both women and men from hair loss by using a highly touted, FDA-approved therapy called LLLT. It's capa- ble of putting an end to the problem of thinning hair, thickening existing hair, and promoting an Increase of new growth. LLLT therapy has shown im- pressive results In awakening hair follicles that have become dormant due to genetics, hormonal and metabolic changes, chemotherapy, bariatric surgery/weight-loss, harsh chemicals, hair applications (weaves, sew-ins, extensions) and alopecia. The process uses low-level laser light therapy (LLLT) to increase blood flow to the scalp, regenerating tissue — thus resulting in better hair growth. Their Story: Robin is the daughter of a doctor, Suzie Is the daughter of a pharmacist, and the two are best friends. Through thick and thin — in this case, when Suzie began losing a healthy head of hair, leaving her with bald areas and sparse growth all over her head — Robin did more than console her friend. She stepped up her research to find a way to stop the hair loss. "My hair was so thin, I wouldn't leave the house on a windy day for fear of the consequences," Suzle admits she would have tried "anything that showed promise of giving me back my hair" to stop the loss.

She is writing her dissertation; he is a medical resident; they are the parents of a 7-month-old infant; and the holiday begins on a weeknight. When she saw the link on a friend's Facebook page, she did not hesitate: She ordered a "Seder in a Box." "We're having all these people over, and I haven't done it before," she said. "The seder plate has a lot of things on it. You just have to kind of remember to get all the different aspects of it." Hoping to make Passover more accessible to the younger set, JewishBoston.com is offering its first do-it-yourself seder kit. Free to Boston- area residents ages 18 to 40 who sign up by April 8, "Seder in a Box" includes just about everything but the food and the guests: a seder plate, a basic Haggadah, a leader's guide, recipes, a shopping list, instructions for setting the table and a matzah cover. Plus some green plastic frogs, representing one of the 10 plagues. "We wanted to take the guesswork out of it for people who have never done it before," said David Levy, the editor of an online hub for the area's Jewish community, JewishBoston.com . At first, Levy said the Web site's advi- sory board of people in their 20s and 30s debated whether to host a big seder for their peers in the Boston area. They wound up deciding it would be better to help people learn to do it themselves. "There's not the pressure of what someone else thinks a Passover seder should be," Levy said. Barry Shrage, president of Combined Jewish Philanthropies, which estab- lished JewishBoston.com last year, said the "Seder in a Box" is one way the organization is trying to reach out to the next generation of Jewish families. "If you look at what's happening out there, 50 percent of Jewish house- holds are now interfaith households:' Shrage said. "There's a spark of inter- est in Jewish life among people who would have never even thought about it before. We want to be right there and help make it available for people who want to try to engage in Jewish life." "For people who haven't had a seder before, who are just out of college or moved here and don't go home anymore, seders can be a little daunting on every single lever said Patty Jacobson, direc- tor of JewishBoston. corn. "What sort of Haggadah would I use? ... How do you set the table? What goes on a seder plate? What kind of wine should you get?" The Wandering Is Over Haggadah included in the kit was written by Levy in simple, conversational English with a sprinkling of Hebrew. It is also short, but easily added to or modified. "We recognize that seders can go on for hours and hours:' he said. "That's an option, but if you want to do a half- hour seder that is meaningful, you can. The idea is not entirely original. Hillel groups and other Jewish orga- nizations have tried similar programs, and a California man registered "Seder in a Box" as a trademark last year; his plan was to sell packages that included a how-to DVD, prayer books and tradi- tional foods. JewishBoston.com "adapt- ed the concept for the Boston market:' Jacobson said. Rabbi Michele Lenke of Temple Beth Shalom in Needham, Mass., said she had someone in her office the other day who had never hosted a seder and was fretting about how to do it properly, even wishing aloud that they could run a video that would walk them through each step. "People have so many memories of different seders, and I think they so desperately want to do it right',' she said. She called "Seder in a Box" a great idea. "It's providing an entrée," she said. "It's opening a door." This story was reported in the Boston Globe by Sussan Wangsness.
