I want to make my hair wavy. I already have natural waves, but they aren't that strong, and anyway they're frizzy. My friend uses mousse and scrunches up her hair, and she also uses tongs. I told my mum I wanted to make my hair wavy, but she keeps saying that the only way you can have waves in your hair is to get a perm. It's not, is it?? Because my mate says she's never had a perm. But whatever I say, my mum keeps saying that you can't have wavy hair unless you get a perm, my mum ALWAYS thinks she's right, I can't get through to her. Anyway, how do you make your hair wavy? Please tell me any products/tongs etc that are good, and if there are any sites that tell you how to get wavy hair then I'd appreciate it. I used to curl my hair with tongs, because I did Irish dance competitions. But the curls just fell out like 30 minutes later, so if you know how to actually keep the waves in place, that would be helpful too (I tried tresemme gel spray but that didn't work). Thanks! xo

its impossible to convert hair texture without illegal hair products

i'm currently a freshman in my second semester of college and i have a problem staying awake in my classes, even if i get adequate hours of sleep the night before!

i've tried drinking coffee during class (despite the caffeine, has not worked for me), bringing munchies, having a water bottle, doodling on my notebook, and vice versa. basically anything to keep me busy and awake! all of my attempts have failed...any ideas?

well see a health doctor.tiredness can stunt growth and pose to be unhealthy. the doc will help you

i rate 5's

sorry if this gets long..

Well my life is kinda messed up because i live with my grandparents and they wont let me do anything i mean like walk around places, go out with guys, have a boyfriend or any thing like that.. well the thing is when you dont let a person do things they end up going behind the other persons back and doing it any ways, well so i have a sister and she is 3 years older than me and she lives with me to and my grandparents do everything for her they let her go places and do stuff and they dont trust me, they just trust her and shes really mean to them and everything and im nice but they still dont like me, well i cant live with my mom for reasons and my grandparents where saying that they didnt want me any more and they wanted to get rid of me *it kind of sounds like im a animal or something* well i hate it and i hate that they are so over protected and some times everything gets soo screwed up and i juss cry and i wanna kill my self and some times i thought about it and i dont know what to do because i dont wanna end up like some people how they are.. so can some one please help me!

what you need to do is dont let them get to you. if they trust her they will be punished. you should probably find friends that treat you nice and enjoy hanging out with nice people, so she will try to get to be nice to them then just tell them shes evil. shell strive to be just like you

I am a thirteen year old female and I don't want to live my life anymore. My ex boyfriend and ex best friend are almost going out even though they know I still have feelings for him. My sister has ADHD so my parents have to give her alot of special attention and there are about three family arguments a day. I gave up self harm about a month and a half ago but now I have started again because I am so depressed. I make constant threats of suicide and I suffer from very low self confidence. I am rarely happy and when I am it is short lived. I desperately want my ex boyfriend back and keep thinking that if only I still had him then I would be happy. I have a male friend who I talk to about almost everything and he is very supportive but he can't help me. What should I do?

dont ever res ort to suicide and dont cut. People wont feel sorry for you theyll think your a freak and avoid you. Stay clean a look for a new dude. your only thirteen you dont need a comitment

ok so here's the thing...There is this boy that had a crush on me last year and I didn't like him that way. But this year we are flirting w/ each other like crazy and I don't know if he likes me. How do I know!! I mean guys flirt w/ me but most of them just do it for fun, and I think I may really like this by now! HELP! I rate 5 for the effort!

first it's boy not by. Ask the boy's friends if he has any. Just ask go and talk to people and see who he likes.

15/f
I no some people might think I am gross for say this but I am afraid I am a lesbian... but I am not sure. I like this one guy (from the inside out) but then I see a girl and think she is hot. I sometimes even have dreams about me making out with a girl. If I am one, I am afraid my close friends know by the way I act and maybe even my mom. Please help me to find out if I am one, and I don’t think it is an identity crises. and maybe give me a website to do some research. Thanks

lets see here. go and get mental help i am sorry that I couldn't give that much advice

dump the drug attic or tell her parents about the situation or talk to your girlfriend about it if she says she liked doing that kinda stuff than you don't need to go out with a stupid person like that

my mother is very unhappy about her figure and she wishes to hide it. Are there any specific colors she can wear to make her look thinner? If So Please HELP!! Shes always so unhappy. Thanks!!

well, lets see tell your mom to get her lazy butt up and work out to get thinner. Its no good sitting on the couch eating cookie dough. so its time to tell your mom to work or be proud of who she is.
