Q: Hey,
It's my teacher's bday tomorrow and we're throwing him a surprise party at uni - theme is Hip Hop. I am the kind of person who listens to weird stuff and I have NOTHING that's hip hop on my playlist.. I need help to figure out what I should wear.

Hair to toes, I need help..

Thanks!
KK

so i would go with like capris that are more baggie not jean ones but like other cloth.{if you can if no then just jean ones. and if you dont have capris then you could roll up jean.} then maybe a cropped jacket but since its school in sure you would have to wear like a tank top or plain shirt under it. then i would wear just like sneakers. then for hair i would just say like leave it down maybe a hat. like with a flat bill if you have one. or just a pony tail. and for jewlery maybe like hoops for earrings and then i think your all sett.

if you want to got for a differen style like you could wear baggy jeans or if you dont have any jsut like pull you jeans down. and wear like boxer shorts under it. and then a white tank top i for gett what there called like a wife beater also if you have like a hat with a flat bill you can get a doo rag and then again hoops or Big diamonds. and with this style ifyou have like i long necklace that would be great!

hope i helped =]

Q: I am 13 if that helps any and I never wear tank tops well only to layer under my t-shirts. And I kinda want to try wearing them like with layering them with t-shirts. I am kinda average on the weight scale. But I'm kind of afraid of what people think. I know that is wrong to think but its hard not to. And I'm shy and unpopular. I know I shouldn't care what people think of me but its really hard. So please help me gain some confidence and let me know if you think it would be ok for me to wear them. Thanks so much!

i dont think there is anything wrong with being concerned with what people think of you! i normally dont like wearing tank tops either. im not even sure why.

umm i think i would start off with a thicker strap just because it normally fits the dress code better. other than that i think your fine. i mean what are people going to say to you if you do wear one? nothing!

Q: I need to find two dresses gor my 8th grade graduations walk and the promotion walk. But i cant find a store or online store tro find a dress. Im 14/f and 5'10' yea i know im tall lol and 125. can anyone pleaseeeeeeee give me some websites o and i need cheap dresses under like 50. THank you sooo much! :]

wow. you are tall. hah.

ohkay well i would try DEBs clothing store i think they have more dance like dresses i think i got mine there for like 60 bucks. so im sure you could find one 10 dollars cheaper.

for the walk i would think deliahs. they might be more expensive im not too sure about their prices.

and just for an all around store if you cant find one at the other places charlotte russe.

hope i helped =]

PS. they all have online websites that you can look at.

Q: my hair is really thick so if i tell them to thin my hair will it actually make it a lot thinner? advice please. thnx

it will make your hair thinner depending on how much they thin it BUT i dont know what type of hair you have but mine is curly and thinning it made MY hair frizzy. my other friends with straight hair have done it and it jsut makes it thin. the frizziness isnt like XTREME friz but its jsut a downside. But it only happens with like really curly hair (or so ive noticed)

Q: hey i'm a guy hust wondering what kind of hair girls might like- long, short, spiky, whatever. Just say what you would like thanx!

curly short blonde. i think long hair is gross.i alot of girls nowadays have this thing abotu skateboarder/surfer style but i think guys hair can have that look but shorter. alot of times guys (at least in my school) have long hair and dont take care of it, so its always greasy and nasty. but either way long or short i like curly blondes. (jsut keep it clean) :)

Q: honestly, i'm a 15 year old girl, and i suck at putting on makeup and doing my hair. are there any websites i could go to for instructions on how to do my hair and make-up? i generally wear only mascara and wear my hair down. i dont do anything else. what else could i do to look cute. i want to look different for when the new school year sarts, and i want to start practicing now.

Seventeen.com. they have videos there that show you how to put on make-up and do different things with your hair. and each month they this thing where they pick a topic like "get awesome summer hair" and then teens give their advice on how they get perfect summer hair. if you look on there and cant find anything just ask again in my inbox or in a feedback comment and ill get the exact adresses

Q: Homecoming is coming up soon and I would really appreciate some help with finding a cute hairstyle! My hair is naturally straight & shoulder-length. I would prefer to have a hairstyle with some hair down because I don't like how I look with all of my hair done up. Picture sugguestions would be the best =) Thanks sooo much!

Q: I am 15/f. Every year my two best friends and I do themed group costumes, but they're always homemade and somewhat original ideas. For example, last year I was a washing machine, one friend was a dryer, and the other friend was a basket of dirty clothes. The year before that, I was dental floss, one friend was toothpaste, and another friend was mouthwash. And the year before that, I was a picnic table and one friend was a bag of groceries (the other friend was sick). Anyway, our costumes have always been really "out there." Do y'all have any funny themed costume ideas for three teenage girls? They need to be appropriate (nothing implying sex or anything). Thanks!

kinda geeky but here they are

desk laptop printer

christmas tree present ordament (sp?)

baby teddy bear a crib (idk how u would do that) or a diper somehting like that

a cd radio and tape like a (cassette) or cd player

a duster some type of cleaning thing like windex and a mop

pot pan stove

calculator pencil scissors

um thats all i can think of now hoped i helped :]

Q: i just want to get an opinion: does a layered haircut look choppy? i don't want to get it if it looks weird and uneven. i wanted it to be cut like this: http://www.kidzworld.com/site/p4369.htm go down to where it says "The Ashley Olsen Look" i wanted to get it like that and i wanted to show my hair stylest but i don't know where to get a bigger picture of it. also i have natrually straight long light brown hair and my mom says that if i want it to look like that i have to blowdry it every day.. is this true? thanks soooooooooo much!!!!!

well if your looking for this type of hair style http://www.1-hair-styles.com/images/long-layered-hair-styles.jpg i dont think it looks choppy at all but if you do if you go here http://www.makeoversolutions.com/ you can up load your photo and see what looks good on you. good luck!!

Q: 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!

well if i were you i'd wear something like a tank top and cloth shorts. i would bring a pair of tennis shoes. but i wouldnt wear them there because if you go on water rides it's hard to take them off and on. another thing bring sun block. i went somewhere like that the other day and it would of helped!! hope you have fun!
