I knew my hair was dry but apparently it's bad to what my hairdresser said.I don't use heat or products on my hair and I leave conditioner on for about 20 mins.. but I suppose the damage is due to past dyeings. Any shampoos or treatments I should check out? Any amazing results? I've tried a lot but no change. (link)
If you have dry hair, try switching shampoos and conditioner to a hydrating shampoo. If you color your hair often switch to shampoo and conditioner made for color treated hair. Wash your hair normally and when you get to the conditioner part put it throughout your hair but take a comb in the shower with you and comb through your hair for like 2 minutes and then rinse it out. I hope I helped you. : )


My hair is naturally dark brown, almost black, and over the summer last year, I dyed it to a light brown. When fall came, I dyed it back to dark brown and i kept it that way until it started to get hotter outside. I like making my hair lighter when the sun comes out. But when spring came, I tried to dye it lighter again and it stayed the same. Just last week, I tried another time and still no change. if anything, it got darker. I used the right color hair dye and everything but nothing is working.

i'm really good with dying hair so i don't want to spend a bunch of money at hair salons for them to do it but why isn't it changing? is there any way I can dye it light without having to bleach it? (link)
The reason why it won't go any lighter is that color doesn't lift color, which means that when you dye your hair dark and you want it lighter, it won't get lighter with color. In order to achieve the results you want it, you're gonna have to use bleach, which I highly recommend that you get it done with by a hairdresser. I hope I helped though! : )


in the software Audicity how do i get an instrumental from youtube to be the track i can do to play while i song (link)
You can go to this website, http://www.rivavx.com/?encoder to download a free version of this product to download youtube videos. There's another product just for getting just the sound, http://convertyoutube.com/, that's the link to it but, that one costs money though, so if you don't mind spending money I'd recommend that one.

Another way getting instrumental songs though, is if you have Limewire, Itunes, or any other program you use for downloading music, search for karaoke or the song you want with karaoke next to it and it should pop up and you could just download it.

I hope I've helped. : )


so i wasn't sure what category this went under...

but i recently got a purity ring and i love it so much, but is it supposed to go on your right hand or your left? (link)
Left hand, on your ring finger. It's suppose to be where a wedding ring would be mainly saying that you're gonna stay pure until you are married. : ) Hope I helped.


my 16th birthday is in july..i dont want to just have a big party
ide rather do something more fun with just my close friends

i just don't know what


any suggestions? (link)
Some things that you could do with a some close friends for your birthday is that you could go bowling, hang out at the beach for a day since it's in July, go to an amusement park, or you could have a bon fire at night and make smores. Just a couple suggestions, if I think of anymore I'll let you know.

I hope I've helped. : )


I have dark brown hair and about 6weeks ago I decided to get blonde highlights.
I no longer like them and really want to go back to a dark brown all over. I don't want to have to go to the hairdressers. I have bought hair colour myself and dyed it in the past but not over highlights.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do. The bleach isn't too blonde anymore, will it effect the colour I put on!? ie turn it pink or green where the bleach is?
(link)
Just make sure the color you have is a neutral color, it should have a number and after the number there should be a letter, make sure it has the letter N. What this is going to do is the neutral hair color is gonna color over your highlights and it'll come out with natural tones, which you want.

Your hair will only turn pink if you put a red color over it or it'll turn green if you put on ash onto it.

So basically just look on top of the box for a number with a letter next to it, if it has an N and only an N, you got the right one.

I hope I helped you.


Hi i have REALLY thick hair and it is naturaly curly, and I mean curly. It gets frizzy super fast. It is about shoulder length, so i want to keep it that long. I also have side bangs but they are growing out. If anyone has any suggestions or information about thining, de-frizzing, or managing super curly, frizzy, or thick hair, please write back. It would also be nice if anyone had ideas about side bangs because i like them, but they are hard to manage. And when i get my hair wet and let it air dry, or go in the pool and get out, it gets frizzy, curly, and uncontrolable soo fast. Its not very nice. Any suggestions would be wonderful!! (link)
In addition to the other answer, try using John Frieda products as in Frizz Ease Curl Around shampoo and conditioner and Frizz Ease serum to control the frizz, those products should help with the frizz.

And how you can maintain curly hair is section your hair starting from the bottom and run gel through it while it's wet and even try scrunching it. Then take another section and run gel through it and scrunch it, and so on and so forth. And to make sure it stays, try hairspraying it.

When you have naturally curly hair and you're letting it air dry with no products in it, it's gonna become frizzy and uncontrolable. But when you hair products in your hair, you're mainly controling your hair and making sure it stays. So what you wants to do is use hair products to control it the way you want it to look and not what is decides it wants to do.

I hoped I helped though and hope everything works out for you.
