ok well to start off i want a new look with my hair..i have brown hair and it goes down past my shoulders about 6 or 7 inches and i already have highlights in it they are light brownish blonde and i had my hair layered about 4 or 5 years ago..any ideas?? and like ok ok i know how to do make up but i have a question about my eye make up..i like using eye make up like eye liner and powder but i mean i wanna look like i can actually do eye make up so like what are the best colors and ways to put on for me? (btw i have olive skin im part mexican so i think you can get the picture..) thank you soo much!

for your hair i dont think you need to try anything too drastic. you could just wear your hair in different ways.[braid, pigtail,buns.]or you could just put in clips and scrunchies.

for your eyes you would look great in
pale greens, purples, plums, blue, gray, or bluish gray eye shadow. remember to only use one shade of shadow at a time and apply it all over your eyes from your lash-line to your brows.

Some girls dun look good but they have full, ultimate confidence in themselves. Can someone tell me how they manage to do that?

I look not too bad but i just cant have that much confidence like them. My confidence wavers a lot and is easily shattered. How can i achieve that ultimate confidence? and stay confident for long?

confidence is really something that comes with how you view yourself. you said that you didnt think you looked "too bad" so maybe a good idea might be focusing less on whats wrong and trying more to bring out whats right. [ex. if you think you have pretty eyes maybe try a different and brighter eye shadow]

ok i have this relly good friend who always calls herself fat, just because shes not as skinny as the anorexic girls on tv, and it relly bugs me i keep telling her that shes not fat and that i dont like it when she talks like that but she still dose. how can i talk to her and make her see shes not fat at all

this might not sound very helpful but the best thing you can do is wait it out. until her self-concept changes there isnt much you can do to persuade her. BUT another option if you arent very patient is find several flattering photos of her and such and show them to her. point out all the good things about her and hope she listens to you. =]

Ok, first of all I'm very self concious about the number of friend I have so I was wondering how many is a good amount? Or just any advice on that problem at all?

Next, I'm starting a new school next year and going to camp this year and all that jazz. Do you have any tips on making new friends?

the number of friends you have is not important at all. if you have one best friend but they're everything you look for in a friend and more then be content in that one friend. its the same if you had four best friends. you wouldnt want a ton of friends who you couldnt really confide in.

it is PERFECT that you're going to camp. its kind of like a practice session before you go to school. first of all try and be friendly and if you see someone getting a soda or walking somewhere just go up to them and say hey. you dont have to be like OMG WHAT"S UP MAN. but just subtly introduce yourself. at camp everyones looking for a friend so you shoudlnt have much trouble. just remember to be yourself and if a conversation reaches rough grounds try to change the subject. have fun =]

i just feel like everything is a mess. everything is wrong, and i feel like its wrong because of me. i dont want to feel like this anymore and i dont want to push people away like i do, for no reason. what do i do..why am i like this?

this exact thing happend to me.

what really happend is once started blaming myself for little things suddenly it felt like everything is my fault. try making a list of positive things about your personality or things that you've done that HELPED people and put it somewhere you can see all the time. or maybe you could take up writing. [thats what i did] you could write poems, songs, stories, whatever comes to mind. just try to think of something fun that you enjoy doing that might take your mind of things.

I NEED SOME NEW SUMMER HAIRSTYLES SO BADLY. all i ever wear my hair is either down straight or down wavy. any hairstyles that are in right now? pictures would be nice too, please. thanks.

I RATE HIGH FOR ALL GOOD ANSWERS. = )

p.s-my hair is medium-longish. about 4 inches past my shoulders.

hmm. well you could try wearing your hair:

in two thick braids parted down the middle.
in a high pony tail.
a ballet bun. or just a messy bun.
if you have bangs you can clip them back and just put the rest of your hair in a ponytail.
or you could just put them in two pig tails that rest on your shoulders.

i hope this helps. =]
