Is there anything i can use to volumize my hair?
Like a spray to the roots to volumize my hair?
Thanks
(link)
if you use a straightener, blow dry your hair instead, also, you could use your brush and some hair spray. there is also volumizer hair shampoo and conditioner...i think herbal essences might be one of the brands.

i don't get it.... i put on mascara and it looks good in the morning and then through the day it looks bad. i tried waterproof type and there harder to take off when they smear. too mess. and then i put eyeliner on and it smears as well. i tried putting foundation under my eyes but it doesn't help...

i'm chinese and any advice on preventing smear? (link)
here are a bunch of my diagnosises: :-]
~it could be a not so great mascara or eyeliner (even if it is or isnt cheap)
~you touched your eye at all even a little during the day
~if you go to school and play in gym or sweat at all, or just run alot or are always very "fast-pace"
here are my helpful solutions:
~get a new brand of eyeliner (to try)
~get a new brand of mascara
~maybe you should stick with like eyeshadow, it looks really pretty
~you could always make your eyeliner look good smuged, just give it a try, to make it "purposly smuged" but not messy, neat
~make a thinner line with your eyeliner



Can a very powerful, pounding pulse in your neck be an indication of getting sick? All day it's been rushed, sensitive in the area and you can practically see it pounding out of my neck. My throat is sore, so I was wondering if it is an indication of your body trying to repair something. Random, I know. But I was curious. Thanks (link)
its normal, I dont really understand why it happens, but it sometimes happens in my neck, knees, thighs, and arm haha. dont worry about it. if you are really that scared, call up your family doctor :-] but it should be okay.
GoOd LuCk!!!
ps
i think that your throat has nothing to do with it, but have you ever gotten that before? if you have then i would look into it.

Good luckk


lately the friends ive been hangin out with for like a year have been gettin on my nerves. i mean like my x best friend is now like the person i most avoid because of how annoyin she has become, or was she always that way and i never noticed till now.all these ppl that i thought id be friends with for like ever, are now very annoying and i jsut dont want to have anything to do with em. i want to go and make new friends but does that make me a bad peron for ditchin em for other ppl? (link)
It's understandable that your x best friends get on your nerves or tend to annoy the crap out of you because you've [im guessing] have been hanging with them for a really long time. So that was bound to happen sometime, so my advice would be to take some time away from them and hang out with other people, but don't get rid of your "x best friends" entirely, because that would be pretty mean, and that could give you a bad reputation. So, I'm all for your idea of making new friends and you starting to drift away from your old friends, but just don't forget them completley, yuh know?
Good luckk and you are not a bad person for doing this, you are just a person looking for something new :]


I like a guy. Im pretty sure he dosen't like me.
therefore i don't think ill get anything from him on vday. sob. there is a guy who likes me and something might come from him on vday. since i don't like him do i keep the gift? (link)
If you give the present back to him, you will, without a doubt, hurt his feelings, so don't do that. And he may think that you like him, but just keep it in the friend territory, yuh know?
Good luckk


ok let me tell you a story about me and this guy
ok im 14/f and hes like 12/mor13/m idk but we have pe together and hes perfect

ok hes just how perfect he is!

1.perfect smile
2.perfect body(not that i have seen it lol)
3.sadly perfectly taken!
4.perfect hair
5.perfect flirter
6.perfect friends
7.perfectly kissable
8.perfectly hot
9.perfectly amazing at sports
10.perfectly easy to talk to!

ok lets get to the story
ok well form the first day i saw him last year i thought he was cute. ok so this year i just happen to be in his pe class and wow!its amazing!he sits there and will smile at me and one time he winked im not one to brag or be so head over heels about a guy but ahh i like him so much!and i think he likes me too but at the time when he was single i was taken but an asshole :] but he was going to ask me out but i didnt know it at the time so . i didnt do any thing but know im not taken and he is and i want ot ask him out his friend says he still likes me but he likes his gf too and his gf is kinda mean to me and she makes him do all kinda a stuff for her:\ and its not fair for him

so should i wait for mr.perfect or should i juts steal her or should i just get over him?
(link)
If you like him, then why should you feel compelled to not like him? haha, just because he has a gf does not mean you should just drop him likr a hot potato...okay yeah, that was corny. :] but i doubt that he is gonna stay with him bossy gf for much longer, because guys don't like girls who are that high maintence. So, if I were you, I would tell him how you feel and see how he reacts. If you want to wait for him, then wait...but don't get rid of your other options... there are other guys out there, so if this relationship doesn't work out, there are plenty of others. [but i wouldn't steal him, cuz that could get messy...let him break up with her or vice versa before getting into the relationship]
Good luckk and have funn


ive had sex about 9 times and theyve all been pretty hardcore. isnt your cherry suppose to pop your first time and isnt it suppose to hurt extremely badly? this hasnt happened to me. is this abnormal? (link)
When your hymen breaks, it doesn't always hurt extremly. It can break through nonsexual activities like horseback riding or even riding your bike. It's probably broken already. It can break easily...well not really easily but easily. When mine broke, I didn't even know! It didn't bleed or even hurt.


ok, this is really random, but my dad is a VERY republican/political/history person. He was talking to me when the pressident was giving the state of the union address. well anyways
we were talkin about who could win as president.
heres my few questions

1. COULD a midget win the presidency
2. WHICH do you think would come FIRST? A woman president, black president, or a jewish president?

I am just wondering, please answer these! THANKZ! (link)
1. I am not sure if a midget could win. I bet midgets don't want to be president. Midgets are normally living with a happy family or in Hollywood...why run for president?
2. I think a women president will win first. It doesn't matter what race that women is, at long as she's true to her self and true to the world. Maybe after the woman president, other racial color and religious backgrounds will run for presidency.


hey. well i really wanna learn how to play guitar. but i really don't think i couldn teach myself. is it really hard to take lessons from someone?? is it really hard to learn to play? i really wanna be able to do it. oh yeah, i wanna play acustic. not electric. but any advice would be great!!!!!!!!!!! thanks a bunch (link)
All of my friends play guitar [one plays acoustic] and they take lessons from someone and they say that it is much easier and better that way. I tried playing it...but I have to tell you, it takes patience haha, and you've got to be dedicated to play it, not easily frustrated. :] soo I would try it if I were you, and if it's not your thing I don't think band camp will be an option ;]
Good luckk and have funn


k…well I’m 16 and my boyfriends 17.

I am so in love with this boy, but sometimes I wonder if we can make it. I’m really not good at long distance relationships, and he moved 3 hours away from me. I’m really upset, and this has stressed me out to the point of sickness. I don’t want to lose him, but here lately we’ve been arguing a lot. And yesterday he really made me feel bad. But I don’t want to break up, we’ve been together for 13 months, btw. What should I do?

xOxO
(link)
Long distnace relationships can be hard, but I give you major props for sticking it out because it means you truly love him :] and that is soo cute. And he is probably stressed from the move and being 3 hours away is a long way from his home...so he is probably arguing with you because of the stress of the move, and he is taking it out on you, which is unfortunate, but just be there for him. If you don't want to break up with him, tell him how you feel, that long distance relationships aren't your thing, but you are willing to be in one because you love him soo much. Just talk to him and he'll listen, and he probably needs to hear this from you because he is probably feeling down because you're not by him anymore. Maybe even set up a date when you will see eachother, so you both have something to look forward to together :]
Good luckk


ok so i have these friends that ive known since i was 3.well they r twins. i get along better with one of them (who ironicly has the same name as me) and anyway sometimes i feel like i cant talk to her if the other one is around. im going to call the one i get along with,"sister" other one, "buddy". well sister really understands me and buddy doesnt. if i want to talk to sister about something she understands and relates to me. while i feel like buddy just thinks that im being over dramatic or stupid. sister and i are ALOT alike and buddy and i are way different!
i feel like she constanly talks down to me and sister doesnt but she also doesnt stand up for me when buddy does that. HELP PLEASE I DONT KNOW ID BUDDY IS FRIEND OR FOE! (link)
Put yourself in buddy's shoes...would you like to be left out and not in with the conversations you and sister have together? Like, that hurts. So, buddy isn't going to be that loving towards you because you aren't with her...yuh know? And I am a triplet, [me, my sis, and bro] so I know what it must feel like to be in buddy's place, and it's not fun. So, I think that if you opened up to buddy, she would shpw you a lot of good qualities that her and sister share, but they aren't gonna be the same person, and it's okay that you are better friends with sister, it's not like you wanted it that way...it just kinda happened. Sister may also be shy and just a good friend to share secrets with, while buddy will stand up for you through thick and thin because she likes you, you are her friend :] and that's nice, so just include buddy more, talk to her, not just sister. Buddy is not a foe :]
I hope you understood that haha, good luckk


how do you tell if a 13-14 year old boy likes you? im in 8th grade and there are some guys im not too sure about.. like what hints would they be? thanks :) 14/f (link)
This is my favorite part of being a little sister all those stupid guys telling you that they like your sister. If you have a sister than you can ask her to find out for you. Good luck, I hope I helped

GoOd LuCk!!!


There's this guy who acts like he likes me, a lot, he's always texting me and calling me. And I think he's really sweet and funny and cute- but sometimes I think he is desperate. He has been trying to start a relationship with a few girls for a time, but they haven't worked out... and now that I'm single he's hitting on me. Should I give it a go? Or am I just gonna get taken advantage of because he's desperate to have a gf no matter who it is? (link)
I think it sounds like just some cute little crush he has on you I dont think he wants it to be serious. He dosent soudn like that kind of guy.
