Hey everyone. I've never had any type of bangs, and it makes me kind of proud that I haven't followed that trend of the side band thing. But lately I've been thinking a lot about getting them, the thing is, I'm afraid I might regret it. (as in, not like how it looks on me) I know I can click them back if I don't like them, but I'm still unsure. In some magazines, it reccomends the side bangs for my face shape. But I realllyy don't know. What are the ups & downs of side bangs? Here are some pictures, if you could just help me decide please..

Thannnnk you.

Since I'm studying to be a hair stylist, I actually cut my own hair. A while ago I was scared to get the bangs, because I kept thinking that I would never be able to do anything with my hair. Mostly because I also wanted the choppy look in all my hair. But I decided to cut it anyways. It turned out great actually. It's a nice look and compliments the face greatly. And there are no downs really, except pushing your hair out of your eyes once in a while.

I really hate my hair. It's thick, curly, and hard to do anything with. I was straightening my hair (I always do but it seems not to do anything) and I always but the top (thick) layer up in a pony tail and straighten the bottom layer (thin) then switch it around when I'm done. So, when I was straightening the bottom layer and I just love it, it's so straight and thin and I love it. But then I do the top layer and it's all..blah! I seriously hate the top layer and love the bottom layer. How can I get my whole head to be like the bottom layer without spending a lot of money? I kinda also want blonde highlights. I have really dark brown hair. So how can I get my hair like the bottom layer? (Sorry the highlights were totally out of subject)

It's easy
Just divide it into more layers
Instead of just the top part and middle part, divide it into more layers and do it all little by little. Each piece of hair that you put in the iron should be as wide and 3 fingers, and not very thick. You should pass the iron by each strand about 5 times.
Believe it or not, it works, even if it'll take you like two hours.
Have someone do the back since you wont reach it that good.
Hope thats helps

hey im 13/f
k i wanna know how to keep my clothes from not shrinking when i wash/dry them. i buy like cute clothes and then like a month later they begin to like get a little smaller and its not becuz im growin if u have anything tell me.

I think it may have to do a lot with you growing even if you havn't noticed. But even if it doesnt, try letting them dry out in the sun. Dryers tend to shrink clothes. And always buy clothes a size bigger if you're planning to wear them and dry them a lot. Thats what I always do, because then after I dry them a few times they dont fit, even if they are my size.
Good luck

I'm really pale. I mean, my body refuses to tan easily. I mean, I've layed out in the sun for about an hour and I have some tan lines but not really noticable. How can I tan better? I don't want to be the pale girl anymore! Oh and whenever I'm outside, I seem to get a lot of freckles...how can I stop that? Thanks~

If you go to sun-tan again instead of putting sunscreen put a tanning lotion or oil. They help you get a golden tan. Even though you could always use a fake one like the ones they sell on the stored. Also, if you have light hair you could always make it darker. Dark hair makes your skin also look a shade or two darker.

I was looking up birth control, for a friend. & I left it on there. & she saw it. Now, I don't know what to say. Because she doesn't believe me, & thinks I'm sexually active. Which I'm not. I'm only 13 for heavensake. What do I say to make her believe me???
Please help me.
Thanks!

Exactly. As people said before, tell her that if you were having sex you would let her know. Because you'd never lie to her about something so serious and you wouldnt want to lose her trust. Even when she believes you, tell her that you wouldnt even think about having sex at such a young age. Also, try telling her your friend didnt have internet, and you were trying to help her out. Dont tell her which friend it was because then she may think that your friend will have a negative effect on you.
Hope I helped.

my the flabby bit of my vagina (i dont no the real name for it) is sort of split in 2 u can pull it apart sort of. Also its really dangly. I used to masterbate by rubbing my vagina on a bed post and it really felt like i was having sex. I am really ashamed of it and i dont do it anymore. could this of affected my vagina?? or maybe even affected the start of my period as i havnt started yet and im 13. And looking at me you would think i had. PLease help because im really worried.

You shouldnt be ashamed, it's a normal. And a lot of people do it. But no, there's no possible way that it could affect you. I started my period when I turned 13, but a lot of my friends started at 14. So just give it time. Also if you're talking about the inner lips being flabby or over sized thats normal too. All vagina's look different. A lot of people have these surgery's called Labioplasty or labial minora reduction to reduce the size if it bothers them or if they want it to look better. You can research about that.
Hope I helped
