i heard that lemons can help make ur hair lighter...does that really work?
and if it does, what do u do with the lemons?

they say to squeeze a lemon straight on your hair, and sit in the sun- but this technique can give you real bad results. the best way to do it is to take a lemon or two and squeeze as much juice out of them as possible into a spray bottle. add about a 5th of that amount with water. make sure your hair is clean, so the spray can penetrate the folicles.(if its greasy, it wont absorb into the hair). after spraying the desired amount of the spray onto your hair- you sit out in the sun(might as well work on your tan AND your hair at the same time!) or you can spray it on if youre going to be out allday. it even works if your hair's in a ponytail. another option is peroxide. you can spray it on your hair before you go out for the day. every day for a week will give you a beachy look. thats what i used to use once a month in the summer. the only down side to it is that you have to have somewhat light brown hair to use peroxide. if you have dark hair- it will more than likely turn out orange. another option is to buy "sun-in". i bought some at walgreens. you dont even have to sit out in the sun for that. you spray it on, and use the blowdryer to activate it. really hope i helped. let me know which one you picked! spitfire9631@yahoo.com

Well yesterday I took a 2 hour nap and then a couple hours layter I wanted to go to bed I couldnt sleep, I finally got to sleep at like 2 am then today I had cramps really bad I mean like wear I wanted to leave school bad they were horrible. && I dont know if it is like a part of my period or what because I mean I feel really shitty and everything and I dunno I am going to go to the nurse next period. This is really odd. Please help. All 5`s

it could very well be that youre just stressed for one reason or another. i know thats how my body works. if i get too worked up over something, i feel EXTREMELY tired. the cramps probably dont have anything to do with you being so tired. i get HORRIBLE cramps every other month, and i know just what youre feeling. feels like you wanna kill everyone that comes near you. o big deal. i would suggest carrying a small bottle of tylenol in your purse, or better yet, keeping one in your locker. always works for me. also, drink alot of water. cut down on juice and pop, too. hope i helped. take care. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

i have a problem. i dated this guy for like ever a while back and me and his sister had been bestfriends then some rumor got started and me and her didnt hang out anymore. well then he cheated on me and i broke up with him. well now me and his sister are bestests again. and i kinda relized how much i really still like him so what do you think i should do and how do i tell his sister without her laughing in my face? im kinda worried. like he has a girlfriend but shes just a whore by what his sister has told me and what ive seen of her, so idk. i just REALLY still have feelings for him. kinda dorky i know. but please help if you can.

well, if you can talk to his sister about his present girlfriend, why cant you talk to her about how you still like her brother?- i highly doubt she'll laugh in your face. just subtly bring it up to her one day, and take it from there.just see what she thinks. hope i helped! spitfire9631@yahoo.com

Ok, this is a pretty long story so if you are not after long stories dont bother reading on..

First thing is first.. i am 14/m (gonna b 15 in a month or 2)

Basically my best friend is a girl..and i have known her since we were little..then in primary schoool she left and went to another school, since then we did not talk...but in high school we met up again and ended up in same class..we became extremly close over the years....Just about as close os best friends can become...cut a long story short...i ended up faling for her..i told her..at first she did not feel the same but then she told me she did but things were complicated then a few weeks later she told me she feels more comfortable as friends. So i respected her decision and left it as that...

Meanwhile i have this other friend...basically she a is really horny girl putting it nicely i guess...and i have a sort of weak spot for girls like that and on valentines day just gone me and this girl went out and she ended up giving me head in the cinemas...

I told me best friend and she didnt take it well...she totally lost her respect for me and wont even look at me..i gave it a week or so and then spoke 2 her..she has told me i have changed BIG TIME and most of it coming down to interaction with this other friend and how i have no self control because i let the cinema incident happen.

So i have kind of sort of patched things up with her, i have asked my best friend for a clean slate..i dont want 2 lose her for anything in this world..

She agreed but i know things will never be the same...

Is there anything that i can say or do to help make things work...i care about her more than anything and if i thought what i did on valentines day was going to mess things up like it has i never would have done it...

Would appreciate any help anyone would give..

it looks like you screwed up, big time. when you say you have a 'weak spot' for girls like that, you're really pretty much saying that you like sluts. as bogus as it sounds, that seems to be the case. BUT ,at the same time- if you're best friend specifically told you she felt more comfortable being friends with you, then what gives her the right to get mad at you if you are with another girl, no matter how bad the situation. id say just give it some time, becuase by all means, i really dont think you need to apologize to her for any reason. i think its all on her- she's obviously jealous- maybe not of what you DID with the girl, but that you were WITH her. just let it calm down, and if she really cares about you a much as you care about her, and she values your friendship as much as you do, then she'll find it in her heart to forgive you. until then- keep your pants on, and tell your 'little friend' to keep her mouth closed. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

Ever since I lost a very small amount of weight over the last few years my boobs got smaller. I went from a large B-cup to a 34 A-cup. What happened? I feel that if my boobs would stick out a bit more my stomache would not look so large since I am a large person. Would my boobs being bigger make the rest of me look smaller?

its all really about proportion. it all depends on what your exact body shape is. i have a long torso, and long legs, with small boobs, and my boyfriend tells me all the time that he likes the way i look because everything on my body is proportioned. i really wouldnt worry about it too much. hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

okay, so like, this is really weird. I have fantasies about doing things with my best friend...we'll say her name is Sadie... (i am totally sure I am NOT a lesbian), things like kissing and stuff. I really don't know what I should do about it. She already knows, we talked all night about this problem. She says she totally understands and she's not grossed out or anything. Is this normal? She is very pretty, and practically every boy that lays eyes on her is in love with her. I have another friend who is younger than me and actually does this stuff with her friends, but i don't feel comfortable doing anything with her. Everytime I am alone with sadie, I get that urge to want to do something. I have done that stuff tons of times before, but my parents always found out. One of the things is, I am really trying to be moral and clean. I really wanted to practice kissing, I am saving my first kiss with a guy, and I want it to be good. I want to do something with her more than I care about morals. I think it is kinda weird how I want to practice with her, but I know 100% that I'm not a lesbian, or bi. I don't have a crush on her. Can anyone explain to me how to deal with this, if it's normal, and what I should do about it? (by the way we never did anything together) I rate, PLEASE HELP ME!!

well, if youre so religious, then you would already KNOW that being attracted in ANY way to a person of the same sex is altogether W-R-O-N-G. so, i figured i should let you know, since youre just SOOOOO religious.

OK well my friends bf's birthday was like two days ago and she doesn't know what to go him.
He is "gangsta" and she was thinking cologn but she can't find him any.
Does anyone have any good birthday present ideas?

how can you NOT find cologne?! i think 'curve' is a classic, and will work for anyone. its the best out there, and ive never come across a guy that doesnt like the way it smells. hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

Are there any ways to pierce your own bellybutton without it getting infected?

i did myne. it's probably not a good suggestion unless you have high pain tolerance, but i just held my breath and stuck a large safety pin through. it sounds gross, but its really not as long as you clean off the pin with alcohol, and clean the piercing right after you put the ring in. just make sure you get a big enough chunk of skin, and make sure you do it QUICK! hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

I have this not-so-close friend who usually makes up lies to defend herself. She comes from a really protective family... So one example would be "No...I don't really wanna watch that movie" when it's obvious that she's not allowed. Anyway, one day she was talking about how she got her period when she was supposed to go swimming so everyone was like "tampon...duh" & she said it's some kind of "genetic" thing where she can't put one in. Her family is religious (strong catholics...so is everyone else that was sitting there) so I want to know if such a thing exists or if she's just covering up for her not being allowed to use them. thanks!

there most definetely is NOT such a thing!- the only reason why a girl would be apprehensive to use one would be if she had an infection, or a u.t.i.- or if she's ever had t.s.s. when she says stuff that you dont believe, just catch her on it- and SUBTLY ask, for instance, when she sed she had a 'genetic' thing- you could have asked what the name of it was because youve never heard of it before. once she notices that she cant get away with lying about so much, she'll probably ease off. hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

ok so I have this friend who is over weight. all of my freinds and I are as skinny as a rail. I'm sure it's hard for her but she doesn't show it. So, the other day her and I went to the mall and we saw these ah-dorable string bikinis. Here is the other thing my freinds and I are all 32 As and 34 As. We don't have big chest so we can wear any bathing suit we want and not look like we are "falling out". Well my freind is a 36 B and she always wears string bikinis. Summer is coming fast and I see people look at her at the pool. She seriously looks like she is falling out and she alwasy crosses her arms over her stomach until we get into the pool. I have talked to my mom about this before but it's embaressing to me and my other freinds. We are so comfortable about our shape and it's awkward a lot. Is there a way i can talk to my freind about getting a better bathing suit without her getting mad at me? It's hard for all of us.

i would seriously buy her one in a size you think would be good. when you give it to her- just tell her that it was ADORABLE, and you just couldnt pass it up, but they only had it in a bigger cup size, so you bought it for her. i think thats the only way to handle the siuation without making her feel uneasy. hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

In order to acquire your driver's permit at the age of 15, you must first take a test at the dmv to determine whether or not you're prepared to drive. Is there anywhere online that I can find the questions that will be on the Texas driver's permit test so that I can properly prepare my daughter and narrow down what we're studying to what is absolutely essential?

Thank you.

i couldnt name a site for you in texas- i live in chicago- but i can tell you that if you DO find a site- i wouldnt narrow down her studying to what you find- MANY kids dont pass the test due to just one or two questions, and i really do think it's crucial that she takes in everything she can about the 'big test'. plus, wouldnt you want her to know everything there is to know about driving- not just on the test, but on the road? hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

i go to a tanning salon before dances, and i've been going every other day for about 3 weeks. i've been using the same lotion for about 3 weeks also. i went tanning yesterday, and today i woke up with these little bumps all over my thighs and stomach. they aren't red, but they are itchy and you can feel them if you run your hand over my skin. i'm not sure what they are - is it sunpoisioning from tanning too often? or maybe im allergic to the lotion? but i used it all over my body and there are only bumps on my thighs and stomach. what could this be?

its prickly-heat. babies get it often in the summer- because they have such sensitive skin. clean it with the same cleanser youd use on your face, and try not to wear very form-fitting clothes for a few days. and DONT scratch it! use calamine lotion on it if it gets annoying enough where you cant keep your hands off it. but it should go away soon. hope i helped. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

I can never find jeans that are right for me. I have large hips, but I'm short and I have small tighs and a small butt. My jeans are always too big or too small. Does anyone know a store where I can find jeans that would fit someone like me? Websites would be nice.

omigosh- i have the same exact problem. in the past few weeks, i have bought at least 3 pairs of jeans that looked like they were gonna fit, but i had to take them back. i couldnt tell you exactly what stores to go to, so i probably wont be a very big help, but i wouldnt suggest buying jeans online, because they might not fit. hope i helped. even a little bit. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

I'm 13 and I way 113 pounds. I am not bib but I am not super skinny. I am very muscular. I run atleast a mile atleast 3 times a week and i do sit ups and other excercises every night but I can't seem to lose weight. Is this a bad weight? and does anyone know any good ways to lose weight 5-10 pounds?
thanx i rate

no, this is definetely not a bad weight. i probably weighed about the same when i was your age, and ive been told i have a nice body. and when i went in for my sports physical, my doctor sed i was perfectly healthy. so, id say your weight seems normal to me.

Okay I have like line marks on my breats. And like, they are like dark pinkish and stuff and I don't know what they are. I mean I am in shape so i don't knw why they would be stretch marks and I only have a Size A borderline B cup. So i dunno what it is. And I really want it to go AWAY. Please please help me I really want it gone

they're definetely stretch marks. you cant really stop stretch marks from appearing, being physically fit doesnt really matter. they should go away if you apply cocoa butter to them. ive always heard of pregnant women using cocoa butter on their tummys for stretch marks. hope i helped.

i watched a re-run of gilmore girls the other day, and rory was wearing these boots that were so adorable! they were brown, but black is okay too, and they were flat (no heel) and had a tie laces all the way up the front, does anybody know where i can find these? price range like $20-$50????!!!!????!!!!


thank you, anyone!

those are incredibly popular at my skewl near chicago. prolly the only reason why i wouldnt wear them. no offense. but i hear you can get 'em at gadzooks in the mall. payless is starting to shelve them too. hope i helped.
