Q: i picked at my finger ever since i was little and my knuckle is disgusting. its like a callous. every time it tries to heal it itches. if i leave it alone for a few years do you think itll be back to normal?

yeah if you continue you could get a really really bad infection, it's best you clean it regularly to aid the healing process and also put a plaster on it or go to the chemist or pharmacy and ask what they think is best you may have to get it checked out by a doctor though.. x

Q: how do i get rid of razor bumps and how do i minimize them in the first place

Use a clean and sharp edged razor blade.

Make sure the area you are shaving is clean too and you use water and a good idea is to use shaving gel/foal or if you don't have this conditioner can be used aswell

After apply lots of lotion/moisturiser

hope this helped x

Q: This may be irrelevant, but I am 15/F. Anyway, a guy I work with is going to pierce my cartilage for me with a 16 gauge needle (I really don't know what that means), so I guess it is fine because he has done a LOT of piercings before, even some of his own... I am just worried because he does drugs (which I can live with because a lot of people do) but the biggest reason for my skepticism is that he is 16. Age is just a number but is this a cause for worry? Or should I just relax? Also, please remeber this is my cartilage he is piercing and it is said that the cartilage is more suceptable to infection than the earlobes and this guy is piercing my ear with a professional needle but at his house. So, should I go through with it? Thanks in advance.

Unless he is qualified then don't risk it.

Get it done professionally and you will have no need to worry..x

Q: I have a small scar next to my nose for popping a zit. haha. its a little reddish/purplish, but not too bad. does anyone have a home remedy to help make this go away?

hey,

home remedies well you could put sudocrem on it if you have it that is or even a white toothpaste a little dab on it should help clear it up.

I like giving advice to people because I like helping them and its easy and you know you're doing something good so ye i guess thats why i want to do it.

I want to be an advice columnist in a beauty magasine or something similar when im older.

Anybody who will make me laugh I like!

My morals in life are always forgive because one day you may be the one who needs forgiving and I have no regrets because one day it was what I wanted.
