Okay i caught headlice off some of my younger cousins who were jumping all over me and lying on me the other day and my dads girlfriend treated my hair this morning. (Btw, we've washed all the bed covers, pillow cases couches etc).

I've had headlice once before so i wasnt worried or anything.

Anyways i did everything the pack said, i washed my hair ONLY using shampoo no conditioner, towel dried it but left it damp, my dads girlfriend massaged it into my scalp and into my hair and then left it for 10 minutes, then i washed my hair with shampoo and conditioner and combed the lice out with the brush that came with the treatment.

i did a little brushing but then i had to leave because i had been on holidays and my dad was driving home.

I got home about an hour ago and was brushing through my hair and got afew headlice out but they werent dead, they were sort of like, alive but struggling? Like, they werent really moving, if i blew on them their little legs went for a bit then stopped.

I wanted to know if the lice are supposed to die right away or like..when?

And also, what makes your scalp itch? Is it the bites or them crawling around on your head?


Thankyou!

P.S and PLEASE only people who KNOW what they are talking about, not something someone googled 2 seconds ago searching for "head lice". (link)
Aight trust me, I have alot of experience with this. I had those little f*ckers for 5 years on and off because someone at school ALWAYS had them and I didn't get rid of them for good untill I happened to change schools (I know, gross right?)

You need to keep combing. Everyday, if possible a couple of times a day. Sometimes treatments only kill the living lice and not the eggs (in which case you should really change treatments, it took me a long time to find one that worked properly). I'm guessing you got a little plastic one with the treatment, right?
To be honest, a metal one is best and it lasts you a life time incase you ever get them again. Metal ones are alot stronger and the teeth of the comb are probably closer together which is alot better.

Keep combing it and in 3 days, do the treatment again. Then keep combing after that.
One trick that works on alot of people to see if you still have eggs is to take the underneath hair right by or behind your ear or the underneath hair on the back of your neck and run your fingers down it. If it feels bumpy, there are still eggs. Lice usually nest here cause it's nice and warm there.

The key is to keep combing. If after the second treatment you still have some, get a new treatment.
Don't treat your hair with a product one day and then the next day treat it again with the exact same product, not only will it ruin your hair but the lice are going to get used to it if you over do it. This is why I said wait 3 days.

But the point is, DO NOT STOP COMBING. I can't stress how important it is to completely comb every part of your hair repeatedly to get rid of them.
I haven't had lice for about 6 years and I still comb at least once a week because I'm paranoid.



Next year i am planning on going to Cyprus to see my friend who moved out there.
She lives in Ayios Nikolaos. I looked online and theres two airports i can get off at.
Larnaca or Paphos.
Does anyone know what airport to get off at?
(link)
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Ayios Nikolaos a Military Base in Cyprus?

If I'm wrong .. if you let me know where abouts Ayios Nikolaos is in Cyprus in my inbox I can answer this for you. My bestfriend lives in Cyprus.


i very rarely get horny. like, sexual things feel good, but i'm not horny beforehand or during. when it's actually happening they feel good, but i know it would be better if i was horny. so, my question is, how can itry to make myself horny? (link)
If you're saying you can't get aroused with your partner then you guys just need to experiment with different things. Try different positions, lots of foreplay (fingering, licking, biting, etc) before actually doing the deed, maybe watch an adult movie together first.

If you mean you can't get aroused on your own then my answer is simple: Masturbate.

I know it sounds simple (that's because it is) but the best way of finding out what turns you on is exploring and getting to know your own body.
Don't just get right down to masturbating if you're not horny. There are websites that have female masturbation tips on them, erotica websites, adult movies, etc. Just explore and expermient.



I'm Natalie and i am 14. All my life i have been extremely boy crazy even since kindergarten. I have had boyfriends and gotten the butterflies. Sometimes even when i had a hard day and i was depressed i would day dream about me and like the perfect guy being engaged... lame i know but it made me feel better. But lately i dunno when i see a girl i sorta get turned on, and that scares me. I am a full supporter of gay rights, and have many gay friends but i just cant imagine and i don't really want to be one... at all. I do have anxiety and alot of the time i just freak my self out and obsess over something... am i doing that? when i do freak myself out i compare girls to guys and it changes but when i say girls i freak out and im scared.Im also a big believer you dont choose to be gay, and since ive always been boy crazy... but what do you think? Am i a lesbian, bi,or just a crazy straight girl? please help! (link)
You're 14, you're confused.

I actually went through the exact same thing when I was 14 (I'm 16 now). The thought of doing stuff with girls turned me on alot, sometimes even more than the thought of doing stuff with guys.
Naturally, I started freaking out. I actually sexually experimented with a girl and even though I enjoyed it and wanted to try it again I realised I was still into guys.
It took me a few months for me to definativly say I wasn't a lesbian, I was just turned on by girls.

To this day, I still don't know what to call myself. Some people say you're only bisexual if you can be in a relationship with a girl and I don't think I could be. My interest in girls is purely sexual whereas my interest in guys is sexual and emotional. D'you see what I'm saying?

I honestly don't think you're a lesbian. I think you're just curious.
Think about this, could you ever see yourself loving another girl? Spending your life with another girl? Being in a relationship with another girl?
I predict your answers to these questions is no, but you're still turned on at the thought of being sexual with a girl. Right?

If I am right then you're fine. You're just like me and you're just a sexual person. You're just straight but turned on at the thought of having sex with girls but not being in a relationship with them. Completely natural and more girls than you realise are exactly the same as you.

I rambled alot but I hope I helped. If you need anything else let me know in my inbox.

What are some good rock songs? As well as rap?

Also, I love the CD Linkin Park did with Jay-Z are there any CDs out there similar to that?

Thanks. (link)
Definataly try Gym Class Heroes. Their second album As Cruel As School Children, is alot more mainstream and fun but their first album Papercuts is better if you want deeper lyrics.

Also, go a bit oldschool and listen to Run DMC. Especially the collaboration they did with Aerosmith on Walk This Way.


My dad is thinking about starting a computer buisness with my boyfriend and my brother and I. I'm going to be the secretary. I already can type fast, without looking at the keyboard or the screen, and while talking to other people. What else should I learn?? I'm getting a little bit better at talking to people I don't know on the phone. Dad is gonna teach me how to use the Quick Books software. (link)
Sounds like you're set. You should definatly keep up your typing. I'm assuming you have basic knowledge of the internet which is gonna be useful if you have to send emails for your dad or something and you should know how to write formal letters.

You should really keep up talking to people you don't know on the phone or in person. You need to have some confidence, make sure you speak clearly and not too fast.
You need to practice not only talking to people you don't know that call you but you may have to call people you don't know so you need to get used to saying stuff like ''Hi, it's [your name] from [the business name] I'm calling about...''
When I started working in my dads office I had to call people to confirm their bookings and I hated calling people I didn't know. But I had to do it and over time I gained more confidence.

You should also know as much as everyone else about the business. Know the prices and all that stuff or at least have a price list with you while you're at work because the last thing someone wants to hear when they call and ask how much something is is ''Uhh, I'm not sure. Let me find out for you''. It's not a bad thing that you don't know but some people might think it sounds a bit unprofessional. So know as much as you can for potential questions.

Good luck :)


Okay, so there is a movie coming out the 22nd and there's a poster on their window about it. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the actor in it!

So if I asked do you think they would give it to me? Like, when they are done with it or something? What do they do with them? (link)
Staff probably do get first pick but it's worth an ask. The worst that could happen is they'll say no.

Where I go to rent movies, after they're finished with the posters they put them out and you can choose one to take with you for free if you want. I should imagine alot of places do this or will do it if you ask, if not they may put them up for sale.

Just ask them.


ok i never been in a physical before ..and my school sent me a paper that i have to go for a physical..and im really really worried..do they check if you are a virgen?..and my mom wants to go with me..plus im afraid they will look at all down there..i dont want them to..so im wondering do they look down there..and if they give me a survey asking am i a virgen im gonna lie and say yes..what will happen if i lie? PLEASE I NEED HELP BY NEXT TUESDAY! (link)
I've never been for a physical but I'm pretty sure it's just a general check-up. Nothing too intimate.

Seeing as you're a teenager, they may ask you if you're sexually active. Do NOT lie. There's nothing to be ashamed of, they are professional doctors used to this type of thing and to be frank, if you're embarassed about someone asking you if you're sexually active, you're not mentally mature enough to be having sex in the first place.

I'm 99% certain they will not look at you ''down there''. This is a general check-up with a normal doctor, not a gynocologist.

I think the reason you don't want your mum to go in with you is because she doesn't know you're not a virgin, right? I don't agree with decieving your mum but it's your choice, it's your physical check-up. You have a choice whether or not you want her to be there and if she insists she wants to be there just tell her you want to do it on your own as you're not comfortable with it. Hopefully she'll understand but just remember, you're a teenager not a child, you ARE allowed to choose whether or not you want your mother there.


Okay so, basically, I have braces, but I really want a monroe. But I'm scared that A. it won't look good and B. it won't work real well with my braces. I need some opinions on this. (link)
Wait untill your braces come off.
It might rub on your braces and it might catch on them, potentially ripping it out.
I also think it's too much metal in your mouth at once.

I don't think your dentist would appreciate it either. Monroe piercings can sometimes (depending on the person) eventually rub against your gum or your tooth and wear a bit of your gum/tooth away. I have a feeling your dentist wouldn't be too happy about this, especially if you have braces.

Just wait it out babe :) Won't be long.


if you think your pregnant but you have a period , is their still a possibility ? because everyone is saying you can still have your first period and be pregnant .

what are the symptoms and everything ?

i had my period this month , but it was way shorter than usual . normally it is 7 to 8 days , this time it was 5 . (link)
Your period being shorter than usual is not really a sign that you're pregnant.
I had my period for 4 years before it finally regulated.
Before it regulated my period would sometimes be 7 days long, sometimes it'd be 3 days long and sometimes it'd be 5.

It IS true however, that you can have a period if you're pregnant. My friends mum actually had a constant period for 9 months while she was pregnant with my friend and my sister got her period 3 times in 9 months while she was pregnant with my niece.

If you're not completely sure, go get tested. It's the only way to be sure because you won't even be getting symptoms yet if you only had unprotected sex a few days ago and sometimes people don't show any symptoms untill months untill the pregnancy.


Is there like any connection between masturbating and sports? Like if you orgasm, would it help one's performance? (I don't know haha, by like releasing a hormone or anything like that!?) (link)
I randomly heard about some footballers (or soccer players, if you're from the US) in England that were known for having sex before a game to improve their technique.

Sounds a bit far-fetched to me and I don't think it's true and while I don't think masturbating can improve your performance, I think it can calm you down if you're nervous.
When you ejaculate after masturbating, it's like a weight is lifted off you. All your tension from before and during masturbation is gone and you just feel completely relaxed and de-stressed. This could probably mean it keeps your mind clear, when you're relaxed. So you're able to concentrate more.

Also, it probably releases a hormone called endorphins, which make you happy. Your performance might be better if you're in a better mood and feeling more optimistic.

But apart from that I don't think there's a direct connection between masturbating and being a better sportsman.


15/f
i kinda have harry arms.. nobody has every like said anything to me about it but i notice it.. should i shave them.. or would that make it worse? (link)
Don't shave them, the hair will grow back stubbly and it'll feel horrible to the touch. And it won't happen to everyone but your hair COULD grow back darker and/or thicker than before.
My best friend waxes her arms and I think it's just odd. Arm hair is completely normal, everyone has it.

If your self-conscience because your arm hair is dark then you can bleach it. There are creams and stuff for that type of thing, you should be able to get them at a drug store or a chemist.

Don't worry, honestly, no one cares about arm hair!



So basically one of my eyebrows is smaller than the other, by...i dunno. not totally noticeable, but it bothers me. So there are these little hairs above my eyebrow (where the eyebrow looks smaller) but theyre lighter so you cant see them. Is there anyway I could darken them and then reshape my eyebrow? What about hair dye? Is that a stupid idea...I don't know. (link)
You could just pluck them. Above one of my eyebrows I have loads of little blonde hairs that no one notices untill I'm in direct sunlight or under certain lighting and I just pluck them out. It takes a while cause there's quite alot of them compared to the other eyebrow but yeah.

You can dye them though, most salons that do eyebrow shaping will probably dye them. DO NOT, however, dye them at home with hair dye. This is a bad idea.
Look around some salons around your area, someone will do it.

You could always get your eyebrows waxed too, that'll get rid of them quickly. You should get them professionally shaped before you consider dying them or at least discuss it with a professional, they'll know what to do.





I have been dating my girlfriend Caitlyn for two years in October. She is the most amazing girl i have ever met and about 7 months ago i gave her a promise ring and i know Cait is the girl i want to spend the rest of my life with. Sometimes we get into little fights and blow them way out of proportion. About a month ago we had one of these fights and she wouldn't come to a party with me that night. At that party, i got pretty drunk and slept with a girl from another school. I didn't tell her about it and everything seemed like it was fine until this girl i slept with showed up at my baseball game and just so happens to sit down next to Cait and her best friend without knowing it was them. They start talking and pretty soon Becca, the girl from the party, has to go so she asks my girl friend if she could give me a ring back that i had left at her house (the promise rings we gave each other. i guess i left it there that night) of course my girlfriend gets curious why this girl has my ring and so she asks becca about it and she told her the whole thing. After the game Cait brought the ring up to me and said that my "little friend Becca" thought i would want it back and asked her to give it to me. I was totallly shocked and had no idea even what to say. Cait broke it off right then and there. I need to find some way to make it up to her. She is the love of my life and i totally regret what i did but she won't even talk to me which is really awkward since i am at her house all the time since her brothers are my best friends and her dad is my football coach. How can i get her back?
(link)
To be honest mate, I'd break it off with you too.
I know you were drunk but you had a girl, you should've been more responsible.

What you need to do is talk to her, explain it. Tell her what you've told me, that she's the love of your life and you didn't mean to sleep with her, you were drunk, you were stupid and it was a mistake.
That's the only thing you can do it, it's up to her whether she belives you and takes you back.

I wish I could help you more but honestly just tell her the truth, that's all you can do.

Good luck babe



What's so great about getting eatn out by a dude? (link)
I'm not gonna lie, it feels hella good haha.
I can't really explain the feeling but it's good, trust me.


Ok, so my school has a uniform, and you can wear colorful knee socks with your skirts, but i cant find any. Does anyone know where i can find cute, somewhat cheap COLORFUL knee socks? [ argile, striped, patterns, pokadots? ] THANKYOU(: (link)
American Apparel has some wicked ones in different colours.

what motivation can i use to lose weight? i really want guys to see me as hot (link)
Right, you need some motivation. I think it's a bit sad that you want to lose weight for the guys and not for yourself but you should use your reason for wanting to lose weight as your motivation.
When you're working out and thinking about quitting before you should or when you're thinking about eating that last piece of cake, think about the guys you want to see you as hot.

Also, make a playlist and listen to it when you're working out. Music has a huge effect on your workout without you even realising it and it can really make you feel like not stopping. If you want a look at some of the songs I have on my playlist, feel free to leave me a message in my inbox.

Another one is using pictures of celebrities as your ''thinsperation''. I have a few pictures on my mirror and if you can, putting pictures on your fridge is a good idea too.



what burns the most calories??? (link)
I think my-name-is-Rain might be talking about an Elliptical machine. And she's completely right.

Ellipticals can burn a ton of calories and unlike running, they're much easier on your joints. Over time, running can really give you bad knees and ankles but elliptical trainers (or cross-trainers) can give you a workout that's just as good as running without so much impact on your joints.

I'd recommend joining the gym or investing in one for home. They're definatly worth it.

Aside from that, all cardio burns alot of calories. Cardio is anything that gets your heart pumping so it could be running, swimming, rope jumping, dancing, etc..
