alright, so i'm italian and of course have the really, really dark eyebrows. (jet black). but my hair is actually an auborn brown color. this, annoys me the most. so i've been dyeing my hair darker every few months. but lately it's gotten so annoying, not to mention my hair is completely dead.

my question is instead of dyeing my hair, would it be possible for me to dye my actual eyebrows a lighter, maybe a dark brown* color? would this be a good idea? (it wont turn my eyebrows orange, will it?) thankyou ! (link)
Ok well I go to school for Cosmetology and I know how annoying dark eyebrows can be. It's totally ok if you want to color your eyebrows, you just need to be extremely careful. To make sure that your eyebrows wont change colors you can do two things. Usually professional products work amazingly and i'm not talking about wal-mart stuff. The other thing you can do is bleach and tone your eyebrows. If you use bleach its important to use protective cream around your brow and to get it to the perfect color just use a brown permanent color after the bleach and a good thing you can do for your hair is a condition treatment. It sounds alot more complicated than it really is. when you go to condition your hair just leave it in for 5- 10 min,during that time apply more conditioner and massage it in. After like 2 times of that your hair should be pretty good. Hope this advice works for you. Good Luck =]]

I stumbled across this site by accident. I seriously doubt many of you have the qualifications to give real people proper advice. After reading some of your responses to people's inquiries i was quite astonished as to how teenagers find they are able to give quality advice and information to real people in need with such little life experience. If you ask me you are not in a place to give your "personal opinion" when people truly believe you are giving them the right answer simply because you claim "people think i give really good advice". (eg. i am still at a loss as to how a 17 year old girl thinks she can give advice to someone regarding conceiving a child) I know you try to come across as a "godsend" to poeple who are in some sort of personal crisis and need a fast easy answer but the truth is, in the cases where it really counts, there rarely is one; at least not from you. (link)
If you don't like our advice, then don't ask. Who are you to even tell us we don't have a place giving our personal opinion. It's our OPINION. People can either take it or not. It's not like we are telling them what to do. By the way some of us give great advice.


so there was a job advertised at work which i and another girl applied for, she had her interview a few days after she had applied, 2 weeks on i still hadnt heard anything... so i made an official complaint to my manager about it.

Anyway this girl that applied has only been there 6 months and has a less relevant background than me for it.

I then got told today that i wasnt going to get an interview and i found out this other girl got it. i feel totally robbed and annoyed.

Should I quit? what should i do? (link)
I would talk to your boss about it. Tell him/her that you are more qualified for this job and thefore should have gotten it. See what he says to that and then, with the outcome of that will be the outcome of your job. If he disagrees ask him why. Then let the conversation take it's toll. Hope I helped


Has anybody bought the version of Ugg Boots that are crocheted? They look really nice to me, i just don't know how they'll hold up. Any opinions? Thanks. x x (link)
they are really comfy and all and they last a long time but don't take them anywhere near water. You probably already know that but mine got all moldy and stuff so I had to get new ones
hope I helped


I have a hair straightener that works okay.. but I asked my mom for a new one for Christmas and I was wondering which one would be better: Remington wet2straight, Helen of Troy (I think that's the name), or Conair Infiniti? Thanks! :) (link)
well i have the wet to straight and have had it for about 1 year without breaking. My friend has the conair infiniti and it's amazing. she has very course, wavy, and puffy hair and you would think that it's just naturally straight. I haven't used helen of troy so your best bet would be the conair infiniti hope I helped! ;)


like make them look animated like snow falling or something please please (link)
If you are talking about a background for your coloumn the best place to get a background is at pimp-my-profile.com once you have chosen one get the big code and copy it then go to your column settings and copy it to background If you have any problems of questions feel free to ask hope i helped


i see my cousins pictures & all the girls have this gorgeous hair. it's slightly wavy, but it doesn't look scrunched at all. if i just let my hair air dry w/o scrunching or straightning it (it's natuarlly wavy) it will look gross & ratty. how do all of these girls from los angeles get there hair with this slightly wavy, non scrunched look & pull it off with out looking ratty? (link)
If you put you hair in tight french braids and sleep on it you will get natural looking curls without the rats nest. Hope i helped

I don't feel safe at my school.
Like, yesterday, I left my binder in a class in a basket under the seat. I come back today and it is totally ALL written on, every single page [which is like 100 pages]. It says "Dum ho", "slut", "sell out", "I HATE YOU B@#!@! :D" all this unprintable stuff.

and, today in 5th period, i get a pass to go to the bathroom and when I walk outside, the guys that love to torment me start making fun of me.

HIM:"HEY IT'S UGLY GIRL!!! GODDMMT! Why are you so ugly!!?!?"
ME:"I'm not ugly. JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!"
HIM: *he gets 4 inches close to my face* "Why should we?"
ME: "Well, if you think I'm so ugly, why don't you just leave so you don't have to look at me?"

and the night before, i bit my lip really hard and it swelled up on the bottom lip.

HIM: "HEY WHATS ON YOUR LIP?"
ME: "Its-"
HIM: "-EWWW IS THAT HERPES!!?!? OH MY GOD IT'S HERPES!!!"

now they wait for me at the doors they know i'm going through so they can torment me.
i don't feel safe.
i don't want to go to the bathroom or go outside of class, or even switch classes!

i'm constantly looking out for people that hate me.

what do i do? :\
please help soon.

It might be hard to ignore them but if you do they will get really bored and then leave you alone. They know it bothers you so dont let them think it bothers you. trust me it'll work hope I helped


Okay,
I absolutley LOVE LOVE LOVE singing, and acting, but my play is this friday and i have the lead role, everyone always talks about that when they perform, they feel really good. How do i get over my fear!! I already had an embarrassment on stage once, i cant do it again. How do i distract myself from the sudience. Tips would be helpful ASAP

JANE (link)
I love bieng on stage and when I took acting lessons my teacher gave us this tip for keeping your mind off the audience. I really must admit that it has helped a lot. I mean a lot. Well when your on stage just place your mind on something else, get into the part and if your still stuck start counting the chairs. I had to just stand in front of the entire school for like 5 min not saying a monolougue and then I remembered this activity and I said it flawless. Hope I helped


okay well, honestly, im seriously thinking aobut killing myself. my life is horrible. i swear half of the world hates me. i have the absolute worst life that anyone could ever live. i dont want to kill myself but its the only way everyone will stop being rude and making fun of me and everyone will be happy if i am dead. i know that i need to talk to someone about it but i just cant. please help me. (link)
Listen, I had the same thoughts as you a while back and seriously am still kind of having them. I know what your going through. I thought the same things and whenever my life made a turn for the worse I really considered it. I thought that nobody would miss me and they would'nt notice if I was dead or alive. Well I started to get it together and I realized that killing myself would'nt help anyone. it would only make things worse for my family, friends, and just people that love you the most devestated and it might affect them in a way that they might want to kill themselves too. Then I heard a song that made me look at the good things in life it's called - If your going through HELL, by Rodney Atkins- really the name says it all. This song helped me and probably a lot more people too I hope that you take the time to listen to this song. Please don't kill yourself. Hopefully I helped.


Im a highschool freshman and i dont wear makeup currently. i want to start but i was wondering when would be a good time. would it be weird to come into school one day without makeup, and with it the next? im told i dont look that drastically different with makeup but im not sure. thank you! (link)
If your not sure how you look with makeup start with something that is good complexion wize after that try different things. people do it all the time in my school. Natural makeup is best for starting up regularly.


Hey I'm Amanda. I'm 13 and Children and Youth just took me and my 2 year old brother from my home because of my mom's drug use of a pill Oxycotin. It is an addictive drug and the Doctors keep giving it to her so it's really not her fault because she thinks it's okay. I am staying at my dad's and his girlfriend and their all lovey dovey all the time and I'm really not used to it because my mom doesn't have a boyfriend. I can only have supervised phone calls and supervised visits. I miss her so much and I'm not even allowed to go to my friends house because my mom can "possibly" go there even though she doesn't even leave her house.I'm really mad at Children and Youth and I wanna tell them how I feel but I'm just a number to them. I hate my life and I dont know how to deal with this.Can you help me? (link)
Hi, I kind of know what your going through. My dad is in jail right now for drinking and doing drugs. Since I can only send him letters right now till my mom gets back from Scotland (my gram lives over there and is sick, its been really hard. My only was really to get through it is just to remember that he is ok and is off the drugs and alcohol. Since they are giving them to her the only advice I can really give you is just to tell them what you think even though they might not listen and try to see your mom more. I'm sorry if this isn't really good advice but there is nothing to really do in this kind of situation. Sorry if I'm not much help.


I'm in an interesting situation here. First off, I have a friend who I will call Ashley. In my group of friends, she isn't really well liked. I'm her best friend, or at least one of them, but a lot of time she is really annoying, and the rest of my friends say I am too nice and I shouldn't deal with her, but I don't think she's always so bad. Anyway, I like this guy who I will call John. A little while ago I told Ashley I liked John over the phone. She asked if I actually liked him or just thought he was cute, and I said I actually liked him. Her only response was "Aww", but then a few minutes later she said she was asking him out online. It was like she hadn't even heard what I said. But I didn't say anything. John had never told any of his friends about liking a girl ever, never asked anyone out, not even said a girl was hot or anything. But when Ashley asked out John, he responded "are you serious?" and she said sure. He said "if you want to" and called her and asked her out. That made me so upset because of all people, after liking him for a long time, he goes for the girl who is already annoying. And Ashley just didn't even seem to care. I told her that I still like him and I'm trying to get over it, but I end up liking him more. He used to be really shy and akward, but every time I hang out with him he gets easier to talk to, and just so much cooler. She hardly even talks to him! He knows I like him too. This past friday me, John, a bunch of my other friends, but not Ashley, went to my school's varsity basketball game. During the game someone insulted John as a joke and John pretended to be all upset lol. So I asked him if he needed a hug and he kind of paused for a minute then said yes and I gave him a hug... and we walked to somewhere else after and he gave me his sweatshirt. My friends and I both think that he acts like he likes me and he hardly even knows Ashley, so we don't understand. And all Ashley does is complain about him not talking to her or calling her or hanging out with her. It's ridiculous.

That was only one half of my problem - there's another guy, I don't know him that well though. I'll call him Tim. He's a year older than me, so he isn't in my classes. But one of my friends in my grade, Greg, is friends with Tim, so I met him at a football game with Greg. I only just met him but I already felt so comfortable with him. I usually don't feel comfortable with even some of my close friends. But I really just felt so relaxed and like I had known Tim for a while, right away. He was really funny and nice and cute, and I could tell a lot about him from probably only 10 minutes of talking with him and Greg. I haven't hung out with him since, because I hardly know him still. But when I see him in the hallways he says hey, and it makes me really happy. My good friend Eric is who I go to with relationship problems most of the time, and when I asked him about Tim, he said he knew him and was kind of friends with him a year ago and he had nothing bad to say about him. I asked Eric if he could like tell anything about Tim or something, haha, and he said "I don't know if he likes you or not but he definitely doesn't think you're ugly." Haha so I hope he is right about that part. As my last relationship ended with the guy not only using me, and other girls at the same time, but also drugs, it was good to know Tim isn't really into all of that, and he just seems perfect to me. My only connection to him is through Greg though. I tried to get Greg to have us all hang out this past week but it didn't work because of sports. I hope it works soon, but I don't know.

I really like John. But I can't do anything because of Ashley. And Tim would be a lot less akward to be in a relationship with, but I hardly know him! Maybe I should just give up? What should I do here?

And sorry that was so long haha. (link)
If you can't get out with Tim then try going out with John I can tell from this tat he likes you just tell ashley you like tim and then since you like him she'll dump john and go out with him. it's obvious she's a bitch who justs wants whatever man you have to make you jelous. Go out with John once she's out of the way


K so i have a boyfriend and we have been going out about 4 weeks and the thing is... he is really commited and i am not. and i think he likes me more than i like him.. what should i do? (link)
I think that if you just explain the situation to him he'd be upset but he'd also understand. If he's more in the relationship more than you then he might feel a kind of relief.


mk so yeh well yesterday at this cermony off my best friends moms wedding yeh her mom is like my mother . anyways i saw derik make out with skyler and ughh it hurt sooo muchhh then she kept saying derik i love you and he looked at me like ehh then at her like i love you to maybe? and thats the part when i wanted to jump on her and kill her. and like ive liked derik for 7 years and now he's starting to notice me . like the other day he called my gorgoues sp? anyways yeh this girl is killing me and i dont even think he's ready what should i do i see her next weekend at a recipetion party also? (link)
Hi, what I would do is when you see her don't say anything but when you see him get closer to him so she can't have his whole attention. When you get in a room together alone ask him if he is ready for a committment. If not then tell him that he should tell her that. She'll get mad but that's the only way to get her attention off him.


15/f sometimes once i start to like a guy i think i become to attached to them. like i will want to talk to them all the time and i'll find stupid excuses just to be near them. and i feel like if he talks to another girls then i have to talk to him too. i know this might seem stupid but its true. so what can i do to become less obsessive? (link)
Sometimes I have this problem too. What I would do is just to let him have his space for a little while like a couple of days and then he'll want to start being around you. when you're around him just tone it down a little.
