AFFIRMED.
Before TORRUELLA, Chief Judge, BOUDIN and STAHL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.


1
This is an appeal from a district court judgment affirming a decision of the Secretary of Health and Human Services denying appellant's applications for social security disability benefits and disabled widow's benefits.  After a hearing, the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") found that appellant retained the functional capacity to return to her past relevant work as a hairdresser and thus was not entitled to receive disability insurance benefits on her own account nor on the account of her deceased spouse.  Upon a careful review of the transcript, record and briefs, we agree with the district court that there was substantial evidence to support the ALJ's thorough decision.  We find no basis for appellant's contentions that the ALJ failed to adequately explore and assess appellant's complaints of subjective pain and evidence of mental impairment.

Affirmed.
