I'm getting a hair straightening iron for 20 bucks. It's a ceramic ConAir with gold colored plates. Will it work as good as an expensive one, like a CHI? (link)
| |
yeah, i think my sister used to have the same one, and it worked well, it wasnt any different from all the other((more expensive)) ones she had/has

Ok well i'm 16 and cute (lol if i do say so myself :D ) ok well I have pretty thick hair. Its not like obesely thick or whatever but it's thick... and its not like extremely frizzy or crimpy or anything... but it gets a bit frizzy after blow drying it and its naturally wavvy. Do you have any advice for me? I hate that it's as thick as it is. I dont even shower every day BECAUSE that means i would have to do my hair all over again and it takes forever to straighten. When I blowdry it straight it not only takes forever, but it poofs out and i have to sleep on it like 3 nights in order for it to look good. some days I even had to go to school with it greasy just because it sucks when i wash it. ugh its so annoying! any ideas besides chemically straightening it and getting it thinned out (already done the thinning and chemically straighening it isnt an option for me) (link)
|
hmm i've heard of this like japenease treatment. ((no you dont you dont have to go to japan)) my sisters friend got it done and she used to have really puffy thick hair, but now its like not puffy and looks thin. I'm sure you can probably go to your hairstylist and ask them for their opinions, because they probably know a lot more about this stuff then anyone else would.
good luck

ok im going to a new school monday how do i make freinds? like i dont want to sit alone @ lunch or sit by the rong person. iv decided that guys are more easy to make freinds with than girl i mean some girls are really nice but you have to addmit guys are easier to make freinds with what if they think im a slut then if i try to make freinds with the guys? help!!!! (link)
|
hmm well i think maybe you should just go to school and be yourself, and act nice, ((but dont act like a suck-up)) . thats probably the best way to make friends. or try to like "cling" to one person, because most likely they have more friends that they will introduce you too. and just like start conversations with people, and dont be shy. good luck!

Does anybody know a way to get rid of a sour milk smell? I spilled coffee with milk in it, and didnt even realize it until it started to smell...I've cleaned up the mess, burned incense, sprayed odor remover, I've tried everything, but my room still reeks. Anything I can do? (link)
| |
well if you have carpet.. borrow like a steam cleaner possibly from a neighbor or someone.. because those like deep clean your rugs, and then spray stuff.. the smell should totally go away in like a week.. it works believe me.

I can never eat breakfast- one because I'm a bit lazy because I'm tired and two because I'm not a big fan of it, but I know it's unhealthy not to eat it and I know you can gain weight from not eating it because then you pig out at lunch and the rest of the day. Any suggestions [besides fruit] and please note that I'm on a tight scheduale and don't have alot of time to eat or prepare it [no cereal suggestions, please] (link)
| |
hmm i know that it might not be what your craving in the morning, but it is really unhealty. because if you think about it you dont eat for like a lot of hours like could be even 12 hours(!), your body get hungry, so it eats the nutrients in your muscles ((which help them get bigger and stronger, and grow)) so you have little muscle left. try maybe some toast with juice, or a waffle, or like a like frozen bagels, cereal bars are good for the go. something quick. but you should definitely eat, because its really bad for you

I want to have kind of a spa - afternoon at my house, maybe with 1 friend over. But I was wondering - what should we do?? I have a hot tub ..anyone have any other ideas that we could do to be pampered? Please help!! =) Thank you ..ill rate high and give feedback! (link)
| |
well you should probably buy some like facial scrubs and masks, and nail polish for like manicures and pedicures, and the basic like girly stuff. maybe some cucumbers too. i dont know what they do, but it goes along with the spa theme. maybe by a few like cheap robes and stuff.. idk thats what they use at spas and stuff, so it was just a suggestion. sorry i couldnt help more
|
my family doesnt pay attention to me at all... its all about my perfect sisters... i used to wear one of my sisters clothes (bc i dont have any) and my mom was gonna buy me some clothes but she gave the money to my sister bc i ruined my sisters clothes and like my parents dont do crap for me im not tryin to be selfish but what should i do?
sorry for the writing I RATE 5'S! (link)
|
aww thats so sad. Well i know you probably dont want to hear this, but you should probably try talking to your parents and tell them how you feel rejected. Dont give up after one try of talking to them, keep metioning it.
just a hint.. if you cry while you tell them, most of the time it helps, because they feel more sorry for you.. sorry i couldnt give better advice, but i think thats the best
good luck!

I was having a semi-asthma attack on the phone with my boyfriend, and if you've ever had an asthma attack you aren't able to talk without hurting yourself. My boyfriend was asking over and over if I could breathe, well obviously not? I wouldn't answer because it hurt for me to talk and I finally answered with "No!" Then he takes it all defensivly and was like "Sorry! I was just trying to help, but you keep shutting me out." I wasn't shutting him out was I? I was just trying to be able to breathe... Any Advice? (link)
| |
i would just explain to him that you were having an asthma attack, and it is very hard to obviously breathe and talk. if he doesnt understand the fact that you couldnt breathe, and that you werent shutting him out, then he's not worth it

I'm very shy and quiet, and I not a geek or anything but I'm not exactly popular either. There's this guy that I think might like me.. but he is really popular and outgoing, so I'm not sure if he really does like me or if it's just my imagination. Is it possible for a popular, outgoing guy to like a shy, not-so-popular girl? What are the chances? I don't know what to do because of my uncertainty.. should I flirt back or not?? Thanks in advance!! :-) (link)
| |
go for it, i mean there is a possiblity that he might like you. popularity doesnt matter. there may be other reasons why he might like you, so go ahead

i usually pop my pimples and now i have alot of scars on my forehead, does anyone know any products that can get rid of scars? a product that are not that expensive and that i can easily get at a store
answer quick please (link)
| |
well i dont know about pimple scars, but i know taht you can use PROACTIV, becuase it works really good on preventing, and treating acne. I think that it is $120 , and $60 everytime you get it again, and you get to pick the time period between orders, you can probably go on the website ((www.proactiv.com)) ((no "e" at the end)) and find out more information.. its kinda expensive but it works. hope it helps

ok..i stole a bottle of perfume,earings,keychain,lipgloss,2 rings, (this was formyself) i also helped out my friend steal her stuff and she helped me steal mine. I never stole anything before..and im kinda feeling bad now. the stuff i took was probably worth $15 or $20 altogether. is there a way i can make myself feel better and get rid of he guilt..besides returning it. And is it true that people steal stuf until they get caught? because ii dont want to make a habitt out of this. have any of you stolen anything before? (link)
| |
well stealing can end up really like in a disaster, because if you are over a certain age limit, you can get fined and go to court and maybe even jail. i read about someone whos friend who was 14 who got her 16 yr old friend into stealing things, and they got caught, and the 16 yr old enden up going to court and facing major consequences, but the 14 yr old didnt because she was a minor, (( but she still got in trouble just not as much)) and it was all because the 14 yr old got her hooked on stealing. so my advice to you.. is just dont steal anymore, but i wouldnt return it, because they will probably ask for a receit, ((which you dont have)) and then your could face other problems with that whole thing, but dont do it again

This is a VERY long story so bear with me.
My father got re-married about three years ago. The woman he married, Karen, was perfectly nice until their wedding day, when she did a total Jekyll and Hyde (sp?) and went totally psycho. She started taking my stuff, hiding it or ripping it up, but never admitting that it was her. For a couple of years now my father's side of the family accused me of making it all up. However, about a year ago now, Karen sent a completely bitchy email, the details of which I won't bother going in to, which meant I stopped seeing her and my father's side of the family. Since then she has sent many more nasty texts and emails accusing me of all sorts and threatening to take the child benefit away from my mother, etc etc etc (I am aware that she couldn't legally do this).
Recently, her 'psycho stuff' has become a lot worse. She started sending odd letters - the address on the envelope disguised as a child's writing and saying on the back of the envelope, 'from Ryan' (Ryan is my younger cousin). Inside would be photographs of me, often cut up so I am the only one in the picture, and stuck onto a background of coloured card or paper. We knew she must be sending these because she is the only one, other than my father, with the access to these particular photographs (me on holiday with my father and Karen).
So, my (paternal) Nan confronted her and Karen has admitted that she sent the letters. She says it is because my father goes to work away a lot and she gets 'bored'. I personally feel that that doens't even qualify as an excuse to do what she has done - for weeks we had been terrified of who these letters were from, and I'm still scared to go out of the house (even into my backgarden) on my own incase she is lurking around.
Karen has since written a letter of apology to my mother's parents. WHY she sent it to them, I have no idea. My grandad doesn't want to take any further action, but there is no way that I am just sitting here and taking 'I was bored' as an excuse for putting my family through all the crap she has over the years (I have only mentioned a small amount of what she has done here). But what can I do?
She begged my grandad to NOT tell me and my mother that it was her who had sent the letters, but of course we know because WE figured it out in the first place. So, I think that if I do do anything, she will think my grandad has told me she did it, or my mother has put me up to doing whatever I would do. That means she might well hurt my grandad or my mother (I wouldn't put it past her - please no-one reply saying 'she wouldn't do that' because you don't know this woman. I do).
My mother thinks that I deserve an apology, not only from Karen but from all of my father's family for not believing me in the first place, but to me, 'sorry' just wouldn't cut it. 'Sorry' isn't a big enough word to make everything she has done go away. But what can I do? I know I could go to the police but my grandad doesn't think I should take any further action and I don't want to hurt or disappoint him. But on the other hand, there is NO WAY I am taking 'I am bored' as her reason.
There is also the problem that she doesn't know that me and my mother know she is the one who sent the letters. My father also doesn't know a THING about the letters yet, and although I don't get on with him, I want him to know - I'd want to know if my wife was doing something like that.
So, in summary, my question is: What can I do? Because there is no way I will do nothing. And how do I let Karen know that I know what she did? What else could I 'get out' of her other than an apology, something I don't want as I know it would mean nothing (she's already apologised to my grandparents, as I said, but that was only to stop them telling my father).
Sorry this was so long, and thanks in advance for any help. I'm fifteen, female, and don't see any of my father's family other than my Nan, if that helps.

you should definitely tell someone that you can trust, and that you know who will believe you. I think an adult will be a better person to tell than a peer, only because adults can do more about it. this is pretty serious, so i think you shuold talk to someone ASAP

i was at my mates party last nite in secret(i told my mum that i was staying at my mates to study)so my boyfrend came and met me,he took me for a drive in his new car we ended up crashing we rolled over a bush and ended up upside down. i had cut on my hand and just told my mum i fell but its really painful i think theyer mite be glass in it.i cant go to the hosp cos she werks there.what can i do? (link)
| |
well maybe you should try talking to someone else about it.. and maybe they can take you to a diff. hospital, not the one your mom works at, but another on close by. i think having glass in cuts and scrapes can be dangerous, so it is very important that you get it out, even if it means that you have to tell your mom.. she'll most likely get over it eventually. Would you rather have your mom get mad and eventually get over it, or would you rather get sick and diseased, i think the answer is obvious

I have a large and painful canker sore in my mouth that won't seem to go away. I've tried salt water and o-zone water (water that has anti-bacterial purposes). Are there any other remedies that'll help that I don't need to go and buy stuff for? (link)
| |
maybe you should trying buying an over the counter medicine special for canker sores.. i've never used on but i've heard they work good... umm i think its called canka-____ something.. i forget sorry

Hi! Okay i am a really thin person....i am NOT Anorexic i swear! I eat actually alot, i just dont gain the pounds as fast! But my hands in the winter they will like turn colors...like in gym they will trun purple and red and stuff. And if you squeeze them they will turn red! Is this normal...my one friend said it could be a blood clot! Help me (link)
| |
yeah.. its perfectly normal.. you probably just have like a fast matablism ((cant spell)) which is why you are so skinny, and it is totally normal for your hands to turn red.. like sometimes you can see like lines that look like blood vessels.. i'm not so sure about purple.. so maybe you should like ask a parent about that.. but besides taht its normal

|
|
I have eczema, and have had it since i was born. It only comes during cold weather, why? i dont know. Does anyone know any over the counter things that help it go away? (link)
| |
i think its because your skin gets dry in the winter. do you play a sport. i have it too on the backs on my ankels, because the sweat gets trapped in my shin gaurds, because i play soccer. i went ot the doctor and he perscribed me this stuff called ELIDEL.. go to the doctor and talk to him/her about it, and ask him if ELIDEL would be good for you.. it works good too
