does anyone have any good advice on how to have the perfect hairdo or style so u can make boys heads turn when u walk by? (link)
look natural..don't look like you spent 4 hours on your hair- guys like a girl that can still be sexy but only look like she stepped out of bed and looks hot anyway..i would recommend either have your hair straight, loose waves or pull your hair back into a sleek ponytail..accent your eyes and lips a little and you'll look very glam with not so much effort.. =] hope i helped ..good luck

my friends and my ex bfs all tell me that im beautiful/pretty but i dont believe it. i have low self-esteem and i cant get over it. i dont think im pretty at all. except my eyes. i like my eyes. i think i have a big nose, bad lips, stupid looking hair and i think im fat and everything and my best friend says that my low self-esteem is a big turn off but i dont wanna think im all that or anything and i just cant help but think im ugly and not good enough (link)
hey, you don't have to think you're all that but remember- confidence is sexy...guys who see a girl that holds her head up high are attracted to her beacuse she doesn't mope around saying she's not pretty and she has fun- a smile will get you very far..and chances are, that if all people are telling you this then you must be pretty..don't try to focus on your flaws so much because we all have them..focus on your positive assets... =] hope i helped

I want to get breast surgery to make my boobs larger, but I wanted to know what you guys think. Should I get breast surgery? I am only an A cup right now and I don't feel comfortable wearing tank tops or any clothes that show my real size. I want to make them at least a B cup. If I do decide to get surgery, is who should I consult to get on with it? Has anyone already got surgery who can tell me the price and the side-effects? Thankyou for your help (link)
hey, well i'm not going to say i recommend it or i dont- but if you're doing it to make yourself more comfortable/happy then i would say go for it and i'm all for it- the prices range from 5-10 thousand dollars from what i hear...most of the time its around 6500-8500...i would consult a plastic surgeon in your area but do your research on him...also, if you're around big cities like philly, ny, or la- see if you could get to a top notch plastic surgeon that you know will get the job done right...just so you know you're gonna have to get them replaced at least once in your lifetime bc they start to ripple...umm just do your research and make sure you really want it to make yourself happy and not some guy..the pain isn't worth a guy- make sure youre meeting the age limit too.. good luck =]

Ok well I'm in high school and like ALL the girls have bigger boobs than me! And I mean i dont want to go to school wearing a padded bra one day and having everyone notice me like a sore thumb! But I've heard if you messeged your boobs or whatever that they will grow. Is there anyway that I can make them get bigger without wearing a padded bra or anything :-/ I'm really self concious and I dont want to be anymore!
THANKS a bunch (link)
don't be self conscious..beacuse some guys actually prefer a smaller cup size to a bigger one..i dont know- i wouldn't suggest massaging because it's all based on genetics and there's nothing you can do unless you go for implants...but then it all comes down to whether youre making yourself happy, or soemone else...padded/water bra would be your best bet- don't make it too big beacuse if there's too muc of a difference from before, it becomes very noticeable..hope i helped =]

ok what is the in color for hair? blonde or brown ? i am a blonde right now but it is a died blonde some ppl like it and some dont i think i look a little better as a blonde but i dont know cuz i did have brown hair with blonde highlights but i have blue eyes and i think the blonde brings them out more but i just want to know what is the in color for hair? (link)
i've heard recently that the best of both worlds is in right now, meaning a brunette with blonde highlights- ..the whole platinum blonde play boy bunny look is out..brunettes are coming back strong buta brunette doesnt fit everyone, it can wash some peope out...good luck- hope i helped =]

hey i am wondering about like abercrombie and the expencive stores like that...why do they have to cost soo much all the cute stuff costs way too much. how can i get the money? (link)
they're really expeinsive beacuse they are really on demand and once someone starts selling and clothes go off the racks they push the prices up to make more money since people seem to buy it anyway- they are really expensive and you're pretty much only paying for the brand name..you can get the same cute shirts and everything else at cheaper stores like H&M, which is very trendy, and department stores like bloomies, macy's, etc. even the limited- but if you want to make money, getting a job sounds just about right =] good luck
hope i helped..love elle


does anyone kno any good shampoo that makes highlights look better and/or healthy? i just got highlights and just wondered if u need any special kind of shampoo or anything. thx, erin (link)
well depending on what color highlights you have: if yuo got blonde- then i STRONGLY recommend John Frieda's Sheer Blonde hair care products...if you're a brunette with like honey, caramel, other brown color highlights- go for John Frieda's Brilliant Brunette..hope that helps ... =]

god ok my mom is s0o0o overprotective and doesnt trust me worth crap cuz im 13 and we already start havin bfs and my mom just thinks were all out to have sex and were all sluts n stuff and she wont let me go to the mall w/out a parent and she wont let me up past a certain time ((its the fricken summer! hullo! lol)) and then she wont let me go tanning cuz she says its taking a risk of gettin skin cancer since my brother had cancer and now shes waaaaaay to overprotective cuz of that and im sick of it! and shes always finding notes.. and she goes thru my backpack all the time and so now all im doing is hiding stuff from her and seriously its like im in jail and she says the next time she finds a bad note or finds out im doing stuff w/ guyz n stuff shes gonna like be around me 24/7 and i have to have a room next to her and im rilly scared thats wuts gonna happen.. wut should i do? (link)
wow yeah that does seem a bit too overprotective but at the same time, i kinda see why your mom would do it- maybe she had a bad experience as a girl your age and her parents didnt do enough to protect her so she wants to make sure it doesnt happen to you..or maybe she's trying to protect you from the crazy world out there, which im sure she knows she can't protect you from everyhting since every person needs to experience everything on their own...but umm waht i would suggest, is sit your mom down, talk to her, tell her that you see what goes on...and youre responsible ...but have some compromises with her- tell her that you'll keep your curfew as long as she trusts you with things and respects your privacy by not goign through your stuff...have her meet your frieds so she knows who youre out with and what youre doing and then she'll see that you respect her wishes so she'll learn to respect yours too...chuck the notes when you can to keep yourself out of trouble and make sure you make a good impression..that's where trust comes from- good luck, let me know if i helped =]

i've missed two periods, there's no way i'm pregnant, i've never had sex. is something wrong? i started them about 11 months ago now. (link)
no, you're completely normal because periods don't become "regular" for most people until after the first year or so of having your period...there really isn't a definition to being "regular" since it's different for every person, as long as your own period stays on its own schedule, you should be fine- i know people who don't get it for 4-5 months at a time and the doctor said it was normal because they are still following a regular schedule, just a different one from other people...if you get really worried, check with the doctor...i doubt its something big though =]good luck

my boyfriend broke up with me yesterday and he wouldn't tell me why! i was so sad and i didnt really care yesterday but this morning when i woke up i just couldnt dtop thinking of him. i love him so much but he wont tell me y he broke up wit meah!!! wut should i do because i wanna no why he doesnt luv me ne more!!!! (link)
hey, i'm sorry to hear that but that happens...you never know with guys, and even us girls sometims too...but maybe he had a 'change of heart' or he's going through a mood swing so sometimes people wind up pushing those that they really care about the furthest away...your best bet would be to find out from him, but if he doesn't seem to give in, then move on to someone who wont drop you like that...i, personally don't understand how someone can drop every feeling, especially something as strong as love, just like that..but go figure...good luck girl! =]

Hey guys,
Well heres the problem. My best friend of like forever, up and decides that smoking is more important than our friendship. it really hurts me to see her do it because i know the pain it caused her when her grandmother died of cancer just a few short years ago. She goes on about how she doesnt need a supervisor or someone telling her what to do, but i keep telling her that i only get on her back about it because i care. she doesnt seem to realize that im only trying to help. however, my help cant always be the answer. i am myself, an advice giver on this website, but sometimes you just need others' advice. if anyone has any advice, or anything at all i could say to my friend to help her, please let me know. im scared for her, and also for our friendship. please someone help me. (link)
hey, i know how you feel...smoking is bad and she should have realized that after her grandmother's death- maybe there's something going on in her life and she uses it as an outlet for her pain...and if so, then maybe that's also the reason for her rejecting your help...i've had a friend like this before and all you can really do is let her know you're there for her...even if she rejects it at the time, she'll remember your words and she will come to you when she's ready and if she needs help- you can't really change a person, even if its your best friend...sometimes people need to figure things out on their own but it always helps to have someone by their side...if things continue to get much worse...consult an adult- if it gets that serious and you're truly worried...good luck and hope i helped =]

hey, i dont know y but every since i turned 12 (im now 13) i have lost a lot of my self confidence. i think im pretty and all but i dunno sometimes i just wish i could change a lot of things about myself. ne ideas of how i can boost my self confidence back up? (link)
hey there...wow i completely know what you're feeling like- i went through that too..i don't know why, but it's that whole tween/teen phase that we all go through and just never stop picking at things...we always find something bad about ourselves...but the way to boost your self-confidence is get involved..once you find something you really like and are good at, you'll begin to notice more qualities about yourself that make you a great person..which i'm sure you are, don't focus so much on the models/other girls- because each person has flaws even though you may think they dont...heng in there- it get's easier..as long as you know you're the best you can be, things will seem to be much easier...hope i helped :)

HI Im a 14 year old girl and i told a guy I liked him right before graduation. we aren't very good friends but a friend of mine told me "he didnt want to ruin the friendship" and im pretty sure that is just an easy term for the words "i don't like you" but then at the dance two days after my friend told me the news he wouldn't stop convienently running into me and kept walking up to me like he wanted to dance but then would just say something sweet and walk away then he asked me to dance and kissed my hand. Was he just being sweet? Do I have a chance with this guy in high school? Is there a chance that he is thinking about me? And if so in a good way? My friend who asked him if he liked me keeps telling me that he doesn't like me and i should get over him.... (link)
well if the guy goes out of his way to bump into you "on accident" there must be soemthing there...if he genuinely cares for you and likes you then you definitely have a chance with him in high school..it's never too good to listen to what other people say because they could be giving you false information, sometimes for their own benefit, even friends do this...so i would stick to what the guy says and waht comes out of his mouth...if he's shy- try to get him to open up by hanging out over the summer and see where things go from there...if there's nothing there, you'll know- and you can't really force anything...but if there is, you'll know and things will be great- good luck girl! =]

im 16, 5'3 and i weight 110 pounds? am i really skinny???????????? answer asap plz (link)
no you're not too skinny...you're probably just right- different people are different sizes and you can never tell one person what's good for them...check with your doctor if you're extremely worried but if you seem to be eating/exercising properly then you should have nothing to worry about- alot of teenagers have very fast metabolisms and dont store unneeded fat for too long...so that's my best advice- but once again, if you're really worried...check with your doctor :)
love elle


hey guys i have a zit growing in like the crease of my nose and want it to go away:( does anybody have ne advice to get rid of unwanted zits! (link)
well first of all, even though i know how tempting it is...do not pop it- it will leave scars most likely..but other than that all i can recommend is to wash your face before you go to bed with facial cleanser and then you can either apply an acne cream or if you don't have any, toothpaste does a good job at drying them up...just don't play with your face alot bc the oils get into the pores..not good hehe- i'm a girl, i know what it feels like..but you're still beautiful i'm sure...try the toothpaste- it seems to work =]
love elle


Hey, I am 13 and i am 5"4 and I weigh 105 pounds...am i too fat for my age and height? All of my friends are always saying I am 2 skinney but i think that i am fat and my doctor says i am skinny for my height but i still think i am fat! what do u think? (link)
hey there...well this is my opinion and i'm going to tell you right now that i'm 5'4" and i weight 120..i'm perfectly happy with my weight and i'm not fat at all and either are you sweety..with so many magazines out there it's kind of hard not to feel "fat" but once your doctor hints it to you...i think oyu need to consider what he says- after the recent developments with Mary-kate Olsen [i dont know if you've heard...but she's in a rehab clinic for anorexia] I think it would be smart to reconsider...if you need anything else...just go on and let me know :) hope i've helped
love elle =]
