I have been trying to find how to make a quiff on the ponytail like gwen stefani does. Ya know...like that little poof in the front. i have tried pinning it but my hair splits. I have looked alll over the internet and cannot find anything!!! does anyone have any directions for how to do it?

hey, Apply hair mousse to wet hair and rough dry it. Divide hair into two sections and back comb the top half. Form a quiff with this and fasten at both ends with hair grips. Twist and fasten the bottom half with hair grips at the base of the quiff. Here you have an elegant upswept style, that is ideal for the sophisticated look. If you want to soften the look, you could pull out strategic strands around the face and gently curl them with heated tongs and set them with setting wax.

im 14/f.. would it be wierd if i went into abercrombie kids? because i looked at their stuff on the site and it looked like what teenagers would wear? do any of you guys shop at abercrombie kids? and also if a medium is in abercrombie, what would be the size for abercrombie kids? thanks

hey, you would be a size xl top in abercrombie kids. you wouldnt fit into the jeans or pants there. anyways go to http://www.abercrombiekids.com and pick a shirt that you like then click size chart if you want to see for yourself.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of any stores that have clothes for people with bigger bodies, sort of like plus size clothes and stuff, but nice clothes. I know aeropostale has good clothes, but their shirts are short and I don't like them very much. All I'm really looking for are casual clothes stuff that goes good with jeans and shorts. Thanks guys = ]

hey, go to deb.

all of the clothes i own are 100% cotton which shrink in the dryer up to nothing. i cant find any shirts that arent like that. for that reason, i cant put any of my shirts in the dryer. because of that, my clothes are all wrinkled. my mom refuses to iron and i tried to iron and i burned a hole in my shirt. i dont know what i can do to not make my shirts so wrinkly. please help!!

hey, i hang mine up to dry them. also at walmart they sell this anti-wrinkle stuff to pour into the washer. also you can buy a size bigger shirt then you need then dry it to make it fit you.

I seriously need some new hairstyles, I'm sick of having to take two hours out of my day to straighten my hair just for it to look "bleh."

Its about 3-4 inches below my shoulders, lots of layers.

- I already do half up, low pig tails, bangs clipped back, messy buns, low pony tails, and high pony tails.
-don't tell me to scrunch it, it doesn't work it looks horrible on my hair.

hey, well that sounds just like my hair. i straighten it daily because i have curly hair and it just doesnt straighten that well. you pretty much do all the hair sstyles that i do. so i think you should get some products like garnier fructius smoothing milk and get a new straightener. also i know your hair doesnt scrunch but you should get herbal essences mouse called totally twisted it works great.

im going to six flags/hurricane harbor on friday in chicago. its going to be hot out so im planning on wearing my swimming suit, but i was just wondering what to wear over that..i was thinking soffees? but idk, ive never been there before. also, do you wear flip flops or tennis shoes to a place like that? thanks in advance for everything!

hey, well your going to be wet, so soffees are great! wear a nice stretchy cami with the soffees. yes do wear flipflops. you want a more laidback cute style for six flags. you dont want to wear like a jean skirt or anything like that.

hey, well im going to tell you what stores that ive had luck in out of all the ones you named. abercrombie- i always find some tops there but never any jeans or any type of bottoms. aeropostale- has cute everything. but they either have alot of stuff or nothing when you go there. american eagle- i cant seem to find anything there ever expect bathing suits. ann taylor- i dont like. adren b- i dont know what that is. bebe- i love bebe! express- has some okay tops. forever 21- is more vintage i think, im not really into vintage so i dont like it. gap- i think isnt good for me. guess- i love guess stuff! h&m- has good camis and tanktops. limited- isnt for me. pacsun- has some good jeans and stuff. victorias secret- has good lovepink stuff. hechts- im not sure what that is. macys- has good stuff. jcpenneys- i never find anything there. sears- i hate. xcape- i dont know what that is. my reccomendations are d.e.m.o, kohls, weather vane, tellos, deb, aj.wright, tj maxxx, and thats all i can think of right now.

Someone told me to apply eyeliner below the bottom lashes to make your eyes stand out. Wouldn't it look weird if it wasn't right near your eye?

hey, no it wouldnt look weird. there are a lot of different styles and ways to wear eyeliner. do what looks best on you.

Hey,
Im 14 years old snf live in England and so can only get what is available there but I have a slightly freckly, grease/shine prone, pale-ish face and I want a foundation under £7 that :
1. looks matte
2. looks natural
3. sort of evens out skin tone and sort of covers freckles
4. Not a powder
5. doesn't look orange
6. Makes skin texture look smooth

Is there any that you could recommend?
Ive tried Maybelline Matte Mousse but the colours dont match my face exactly and sometimes I look orange with the palest colour on.

ty in advance luv Rachel xxx

hey, try something in the covergirl products. i use covergirl it works great. but i find that if you get the coverup that looks like lipgloss like it has a little stick that comes out of it and you rub iton your face with your ahnds instead of someting else it blends better.

this question is for both boys and girls.Let;s say you really like someone, and she/he is single.Would you still go out with them even though they have had two or three girl/boy friends in the past?or do people prefer girls/guys that haven't been attached before?
For instance, I prefer girls who haven't had a boyfriend before to girls who have.

hey, it doens matter to me how many relationships a person has had in the past. as long as he was into me and stuff its fine.

okay i love the way flats look but they always cut the backs of my ankles, does anyone know how i can get them to stop doing that without socks cause i like to wear them with like capris and skirts and stuff and socks wont look right and nylons are a pain the the butt and if i put in the backing things then my foot feels squished. should I just use band aids? thanks in advamce.

16/f

hey, well ballet flats are suppose to be sort of tight fitting. so you know those things that you have to use to try on shoes if you dont have any socks on? there sort fo like nylons but there only for your feet. take some of those from a store that sells shoes lol. also bandaids will work too.

thanks

- xoxo Vanessa

hey, well its not your parents that are in a relationship with him. its not your friends that are in a relationship with him. its you. just because people want you to break up with him doesnt mean you should. if your still in love with him then stay with him.
