I'm 18 and about to enter my sophomore year of college. Feel free to ask me questions about anything- I'll try to help in the best way possible! :)
advice
hello im a 14/f . im getting my hair done tomorrow and i want to get my hair re layered and change my bangs . i have bangs to the side but i dont have a lot and they're pretty long . i want to get more and i want to get them cut like to my eye . if i get bangs straight across , like almost below my eyes , can i like comb all of my bangs to one side so i still have bangs to the side ? ugh , what should i do ? thanks
absolutely. my roommate got straight across bangs, and changed her mind- she decided to turn them into side swept bangs.
I was thinking about tanning over the winter. I have never been before, I was wondering what to expect, what levels I should use, what I should wear, how often I should go and stuff about costs, etc.
I'm already dark skinned, a bit.
Thanks!
*OBVIOUSLY, tanning is bad for you.. and you're aware of that. But here's some info..*
I'm sure it depends on where you go, but at the tanning salon I go to, there's only one level. You have the choice of a booth (you stand up- that's what I usually use. there's a 12 minute limit to stay in there) or a bed (what you probably can picture, the limit is 15 minutes). I am naturally dark skinned, so when I tan I usually do between 10-15 minutes. There are TONS of different packages. You can buy anything from one single visit, 10 visits, a week straight, a month straight, a year membership, etc. You just need to talk to someone that works there with pricing. There are usually specials going on for that day/month that are sometimes good deals. A lot of websites include prices, if you know which salon you're planning on going to. You're going to need to buy eye protection, which will be offered at the salon in different styles. It's VERY important that you wear the eye protection! As for what to wear, I'm assuming you mean when you actually are tanning. I usually just go naked so that I have no tan lines. Or I'll wear a thong and no bra. Wear whatever you feel comfortable in. It's up to you! Just remember, the more you wear, the more tan lines you'll get.
My white bra always shows through when I wear a white tee is this ok? I've tried multiple white tees and they all showthrough. Is this ok? A cami underneath is not
possible with most of my outfits. So is this ok?
Pick up a nude bra! Of course that's not the most appealing of colors for a bra, but it's good to have one in your wardrobe for reasons like this..
hey, Im gonna keep this short and sweet. So my hair doesnt grow as fast as it should, (or as fast as I wish it would). Is there any way I could get my hair to grow really long, really fast?
Prenatal vitamins!
I read somewhere that lemon juice makes your hair grow. Is this true?
I highly doubt it, because lemon juice is so acidic I'd imagine it'd just dry out your hair if used too often. If you spray lemon juice/water into your hair and go out into the sun, it will lighten it up.
I have heard that taking prenatal vitamins (you don't have to be pregnant to take them) do make your hair grow!

I also saw some cute ones at Gap. I tried to look on the website for them, but they aren't on there. There's still other ones on the site though:

If i'm a size medium in tops and 6/medium in bottoms at american eagle, what size would i be at abercrombie&fitch? because they got rid of the store that was in my area so i'm ordering online now, and i never trust the size charts.
thanks :]
Usually a 6. I'm a 4 or 6 at AE and I'm basically a 6 at Abercrombie.
Ok, so my school has a uniform, and you can wear colorful knee socks with your skirts, but i cant find any. Does anyone know where i can find cute, somewhat cheap COLORFUL knee socks? [ argile, striped, patterns, pokadots? ] THANKYOU(:
My friend got really cute argyle knee socks from Journey's.
I have my hair cut like the girl with the black hair (on the right) in this photo: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=160577511&albumID=939322&imageID=9452003
But I can get it to stick up like hers without a ton of hairspray which makes it look ratty and all the strands are stuck together. How can I make it nice and fluffy but still stick up like hers at the top?
Also, when I straighten my hair at the bottom it always goes back wavy again abot an hour after I've straightened it. It's disgusting. How can I fix this without permanently straightenening it? It's naturally wavy and I like to thin it out when it's straightened. I have layers in my hair like in that photo so it tends to become more volumous.
I would reallly reallly appreaciate anyone at all who can help me.
Thankyou
xx
The link's private, but I'm picturing what this girl's hair looks like. If you have a Supercuts near by, walk in and ask them for a product that specifically makes your hair big. My friend always has her hair big at the top & she got the product from Supercuts. (Sorry, I don't know the name of it). But all you have to do is walk in and ask, and they'd show you the product.
Okay so i want to go back to school with a "change" . Espicially a change with my hair. My hair is kind of long, its beneath my shoulders though, maybe three inches. I have dark brown hair and i used to have blonde streaks, but i got that two times, im sick of it. I need help with deciding a new color to put in my hair. Would a lighter brown look good? I dont know. Just give some advice please and thank you.
Confused deana.
Yea, light brown would look really good. The blonde streaks is just sort of, blah, and only a few people actually look good with them with dark hair. I would go with a mixture of light brown and auburn/reddish highlights. They'd look really cute. As for a cut, maybe try getting your hair thinned if it isn't already, some layers, and side bangs.

Hey! Well I'm into blue cheetah print, but I don't know whether to but the dress from Urban Outfitters or the ruffle tank from Alloy.

What do you think? Which one would you buy?
Thankssss
They're both cute, but I like the tank better than the dress.
Can anyone recommend a hair straightener that works well and is also reasonably priced? I know CHI is a good company but i can't afford to spend $150 on a hair straightener.
links would be helpful :]
I've had the Remington Wet2Straight for almost two years. It works good, too. You can get it from Target/Walmart for around $30.
14/f Hi i was wondering what kind of hair styles I should wear cuz my hair is kinda short it had broke off alot So know it reaches my chin. And do ya'll know of anything to grow it back thanks
Like the person below me said, if you can pull it off, go for the Victoria Beckham hairstyle. I've been seeing a lot of people with it lately.

I need a tote bag for school. It doesn't have to be big enough to carry a bajillion books (i still have arms and boys :] ), but I want it to be able to carry some books and stuff.
I like PacSun's bags (minus black and a lot of them aren't big enoguh :[ ) and I kind of don't want to pay $40 for one (coughAbercrombiecough).
So can you give me a link or a place to look at some cute totebags?
Thanks.

I just got one from Victoria's Secret for $15 and it's cute. It's big enough to actually carry stuff too, I bring it to a friend's house if I sleep over instead of like, a duffel bag.

Hey guys! So I was in walmart recently and I discovered wet to dry hair straighteners. I've seen ads in magazines for them before but they seem almost too good to be true. One of the two I found is called Wet 2 Style made by Remington for $25.47 and it looks like a normal straightener for dry hair. The other is called Infiniti Hair Designer by Conair for $49.94 and it looks like a comb with ceramic plates. I have several questions.
1. Is the more expensive one a better deal?
2. I dont want to have to use the wet 2 dry straightener and then have to go over it with my dry straightener. So, are Wet 2 Dry straighteners worth it?
3. I get phenominal results with my dry straightener. My hair is damaged yes from the heat but its very smooth and soft. Do wet 2 dry straighteners give the same effect?
Also if it matters my hair is thick, wavy, and frizzy. I had a chemical relaxer put on it back in June but it's still a bit frizzy. Basically I want to know if wet 2 dry straighteners are worth it and any experiences (good and bad) you all have had with them!
Thank You!
I have the Remington Wet2Straight straightener. I've used it with my hair when it was wet I think once, and I got sucky results. It does NOT make your hair stick straight and smooth, it makes it puffy and takes a long time to even make it work good. It'd be quicker just to blow dry your hair and then straighten it - plus you'd get better results. It works good when my hair's dry, though. I think that basically any wet/dry straightener will have the same results. I don't have any experience with the other kind of straightener, so I don't know if it works well.
What is the best mascara you've ever used?

Hi.
I've come across yalyta.com. It's a cheap designer clothing online store.
But, none of my friends have ever heard of it.
Has anyone had experience with them? Is it good or bad?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's a scam. The website IS too good to be true. I look around on yahoo, and some people have ordered things from there. One person had good communication with them, and only sent half the payment. She didn't get what she ordered, so she called back and the phone line was disconnected. I wouldn't order anything off there because you're just setting yourself up. =\
13/f i'm a size L in abercrombie kids, size S in hollister, so what's my size in abercrombie and fitch?
A small or extra small.
i was just wondering what you (a girl) would think or do if you found out i (a guy) was wearing a thong or what youre feelings would be?
Honestly, I would probably feel awkward. I would look at you kind of confused. I wouldn't stop talking to you if I were friends with you before or anything. I'd just think that was really weird if you wore a thong.
