My hair is really dry and damaged.
I straighten it everyday.
I know that ruins the hair and everything, but if I don't, it's VERY poofy/frizzy and just looks awful.


So does anyone have any shampoos, conditioners, or hair products that would be useful for my hair?


Thanks in advance.

if you arent doing anything one day, than just dont straigten it! you need to let your hair just be from time to time. And also if you arent doing anything, put hot olive oil on your hair and it makes your hair so soft taking away all split ends! Also, when washing your hair, put ALOT of conditioner in.. and leave it while you do everything else. i used to straighten my hair all the time, and it was so FRIED! but now i still straighten it all the time, and ive been doing what i told you to do, and its so much healthier!!

Is going to sleep at 3:00 am to 3:00 pm unhealty?
I have been sleeping in that late for the whole summer,my sisters think its veeeerrrrry unhealty to do that, but they dont give me any reasons why it is unhealty.

THANKS!

Yeah, it kind of is. Because although they say you need at least 9 hours of sleep a night, natrually, from 11 to 1 that is when our body recharges and recovers in this hours. mainly our galbladder dumps toxin during this period and if you are awake it goes to your liver insted. So basicly the 12 hours of sleep you are getting doesnt really count for anything. You dont have to go to bed before 11 everynight, but just dont get into a habit of it!

Is it against the catholic Chrsitian culture to smoke pot?? Im not talking about any other drugs... Just pot. Is it considered a sin? or is it just wrong??

please answer this.

later.

it might not be a sin, but it opens up doors to other sins. If you want to be a good christian, than i wouldnt smoke pot if i were you. What does that say to other people that aren't, you know?

Okay, so. When it comes to my friends i'm really outgoing & not shy at all. But when I'm around new people I'm VERY shy and VERY quiet. But, I love acting. I do it with my family, we make videos, etc. And I love it. But I've been hesitating on ever trying out for any plays or anything because I know i'd blow it when I'd have to audition, due to my whole being really shy thing. My question is if anyone can give me any advice on how to get over being so nervous & shy all the time? I'd really hate to miss out on something that could be great for me because I can't get over being shy. :] Help, please. Any advice is appreciated. Thankyou.

im just like you, and i also love to act! This is what you have to do. Since im really shy too, all you do is tell yourself over and over to be confident, and almost take a step out of yourself, and almost rise above the shyness level in your brain. I dont no if that makes since, but you just have to tell yourself not to care what people think, and you have to tell your self to not be all shy and just rise above that level. i no that might not make since... but if you can makeyourself think like that than you wont be shy. And just remember that its okay to be nervous because everyone is, but just dont let it get to you!

ok i have a bunch of friends and i love hanging out with them but i dont somethings missing like the only preson i can totaly be myself around and that feel's like a totaly good friend is my sisters friend i know thats kind of weird but she started talking to me one day when my sister ahd this huge sleepvoer anywho she's the only one i can hangout with have fun with totaly trust and what not why cant i find anyone else thats like her cause i really like all my friends but like yeah this is really hard to explain because i dont even really get all of it please help thoguh if you can

Its really hard to fit in sometimes and find friends that are just right for you. All you can do is be yourself and hope to find some really good friends that love you for you.
Although you may not feel that you can be your complete self around your friends right now, thats perfectly normal. But you shouldnt have to be someone else.
Another thing is that different people, bring different parts of our personalities out... like, with your sisters friend, she might bring out a side that you like about yourself. and with your friends, its probably not the full you, but still, they are your friends.

I dont no if this makes since, but i mean there is a difference between close friends and just friends. and thats okay to have only a FEWW close friends that you can be your complete self around. like your sisters friend. hopefully you will be able to hang out with her more and stuff, and maybe you can hang out with her friends too.

But thats just how life is. Everyone only meets a few people in there lifetime that they feel like they can be there complete self around. and those are called best friends. thats why they say they are hard to find.

i really hope to help, and i hope im not jsut rambleing on and on about this stuff that doesnt make since hahaha. I tryed to understand the best i can, let me know if i helped! :)

I really don't know what to do. There is this new school that opened up and has really high scores like the teachers teach better curiculum. My school is like on the bottom list and I barely learned anything. I want to go to the new school, but to leave all my friends and everything behind is just so sad. I know I can see them but just the whole school. And I also really like this guy and I would probably never see him again. Please help!

You just have to think to yourself what you like better. High scores and better curiculums, or your friends, and of course that guy.

I say, stay with the school you have, and maybe if its important to you, you can learn on your own and stuff. I dont really think it matters about what your school ranks, only to the teachers and stuff, and just if you stay at that school at least you can try your hardest and get good grades there!

How do you do this hairstyle

http://entimg.msn.com/i/gal/HilaryDuff/Duff_Hilary19538_4001.jpg

except her hair is supposed to be in a ponytail??

another example is in the video of Fergie's Glamorous

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Uahw5BU9N8

it has it at 3:15 where she is on the phone, on the plane.

how do you do that hairstyle and whats it called?? thanks

you take as big as a piece of hair you want, and you take it and bobby pin it to the side or have it hang in front of your face, someplace to get it out of the way. This is because, than, you take another layer of hair and hold it up and brush up to make it thick and shaggy. spray it with hairspray too. Than, take the peice of hair you bobbypined to the side or had in front of your face.. and flip it over the "shagged" hair, because that is was poofs it up. then just bobby pin it back.

So hi! I am having a sleepover with my best friend when she gets back from vacation and I need some really good ideas to take her mind off of things. I've got a pool so we can swim and of course we'll watch movies, but, thats all I can think of. She has been through alot with some other friends and she complains that her summer sucks. I wish I could take her on a trip with my family but we can't afford it. So, anyone have any ideas of things we could do together to maybe cheer her up a bit?

I don't know if it means anything but we're both 16/F and she has her license already. But don't be so quick to suggest we drive somewhere because my mom may not be up for that. But feel free to list anything you think of, even if it involves driving.

Thanks Alot!

yall could get all dressed up and give eachother make-overs.. than go to the movies.. or out to dinner or something.
oorr make movies.. thats always funny.
or you can bake things because its always a fun experience lol.
try to be creative! and just be random!
im sure yall will have fun :)

ok i want to re-do this question.. if thats ok with you.

I'm currently using Fructis sleek and shine shampoo and conditioner and I don't know why but I don't want to use it anymore. I want a change. Before, I asked you what brands you think are best. Well after reading some of the answers, i did research and changed my minds on some of them.

Pantene IS bad for your hair because they put chemicals in there, and after you use it awhile, your hair starts to turn bad.

Suave is NOT good because it dries out your hair and is cheap

Herbal Essences- Doesn't really do much except make your hair smell nice.


sooo that leaves me hanging by Dove and Sunsilk.

I NEED HELP! if you think that any of the information i've given is wrong, then please explain to me! I don't know why i've become so interested in shampoos but I really want to know what brand is healthy for you and what brands are not.

Any other brands that you want to tell me about that you think work great.

All i'm looking for is something that can make my hair less frizzy, smooth, shiney, soft and great smell.

my hair is straight but sometimes it can be a little wavy, it's allways frizzy.

hey i have the same type of hair as you. Mine is frizzy but still straight. Okay well just try to buy a new type of shampoo everytime you go to the store. Once your hair gets used to soemthing... than it just drys it out. Right now im using pantene... and i no that its bad but it works soooo good. like i get the sleek and shine or whatever its called... but i just leave it on my hair for about 3 minutes... and it is so soft and not greasy at all. ALSO although suave is cheap and it does dry outyour hair, try sauve professional..its like salon hair shampoo only cheaperr!... or.. you could go to the walmart salon... and get some REAL professional shampoo which is alot cheaper at walmart lol. hope to help!

ok so i just ended my first year of high school and i really just hate who i am. i'm not the person i want to be and i make too many mistakes and when my friends don't include me in their conversations when im around it just makes me feel invisible and horrible. i just dont like myself because i never know what to say to them. one of my friends i really like (as in like i want her to be my best friend forever) and i don't wanna say something stupid to get her not to like me because shes really nice most of the time and shes fun to be around. i dont wanna change myself cause thats just dumb. but my main point here is how can i get them to talk to me like they do to each other? thankss.

Okay, I'm not going to just sit here and tell you that they arent true friends, because no one is perfect, and i bet you dont want to here that they arent true so... Just be yourself. and if you feel like that is not anough, find things you are intrested in. search the innner you. find things that make you truely happy, and dont depend on what people think of you or how they treat you to make up your esteem. You can create it yourself. Be the person you want to be. And who knows. maybe they arent your true friends. maybe think about finding people who like you for YOU and not because you feel that you have to try. i really hope to help you because i know your pain, but it will pass sooner or later, just stay TRUE TO YOURSELF! :)

Im a 13 year old girl and I have only dated... 3 guys my entire life. I want to know, what do guys look for in a girl? I mean, I'm confident, not too smart, I have a sunny disposition, I'm sort of a tomboy, but I think dating is alright. I want to have a good relationship with a guy, not a bad one like my previous ones. Can anybody help me?

you are ONLY 13. its okay, dont worry about trying to impress guys, and three is alot, TRUST ME. If you want a good relationship, you just have to be yourself, and wait for that special person to like you for YOU. Even if it takes forever, at least you werent anything you weren't. thats whats important. seriously. stay true to yourself! and the guy will come! but it can also wait. :)

yesterday i went on a 45 minute bike ride... and today my whole vagina/butt area that touches the bike seat is sooo sore and it hurt really bad when i tried to go on a bike ride today.


so should I just stop bike riding? or just ignore it?

umm idk if im right, but you probably popped your cherry. it happened to my friend and we looked it up and it said riding bikes or horses or anything like that like sports and stuff, sometimes accidently pops your cherry. idk how but just look it up, and see if it descibes what you are feeling.

I have side bangs and to keep them together i use hairspray but then they look greasy. I see tons of girls who look like they dont use hairspray but how to they keep them together?

part your hair right when you get out of the shower. maybe grow them out just a little bit more, or get some gel which wont make your hair look greasy. and only put it at the top of your bangs or the root of them.
