    I use cheap Barbasol shaving cream on my legs because it's more fluffy and seems to help with irritation, also I use a mens electric razor because I think girl razors don't work as well. I haven't had any irritation or problems since I switched razors over 5 years ago so maybe try that.

    And I agree always lotion up right after your shower while your pores are still open, this helps lock the moisture in and keeps you from getting that nasty black hair follicle leg look.

    Perms are really bad for your hair, the heat and the chemicals used can cause damage that is usually only solved with a trim. Why not try using mouse or gel then braiding your hair at night? Then you will have the option of wearing it straight as well...

    As for your question I have seen perms that look like braids but I don't know the specific name...

    Claire's usually has cheap nice looking tiaras. Micheal's and walmart sell tiaras in their wedding sections. If it's just a stage prop you could always just get a cheap plastic one and spray paint it silver.

    My conditioner smells strong enough that I can shampoo, then vinegar rinse, then condition and no one can smell it. I would just make sure you use hot water to mix because the vinegar can be cold (p.s. it burns your eyes)

    First off congrats on the weight lose!
    As for the hair problems, I would suggest layers to keep it from getting tangled. I also agree with Myka about braiding your hair at night, my hair is mid-thigh so I braid every night and don't have alot of tangles even though it's long. Also try braiding it the opposite way you want it to end up that way when you take it out you have volume, you can also just blow dry your roots with some mouse or something that will help.
    As for the dullness, I do a part vinegar part water rinse about once a month, it gets rid of the product buildup and your hair will be so clean and shiny it will squeak! They also sell clarifying shampoos that help.

    CLARIFICATION-When I say your hair will "squeak" I am exaggerating. Considering I have been asked to be an Aveda event hair model and their stylist told me I have the healthiest hair he has ever seen I don't think the vinegar rinse is doing any damage to my hair. Vinegar is alot less harsh than most shampoo ingredients so unless you are really concerned about drying out your hair I wouldn't worry about it.

    Sometimes a breast that gets bigger and then shrinks over the course of a month is attributed to cysts developing in the breasts. If one breast is always larger you can always get a gel insert for the smaller breast until you can afford the reduction. I don't know if you could buy one, but I know that alot of women before getting a breast enlargement will be given the gel inserts so they can "test them out"

    You could part your hair in front and do a very tight french braid just till your ear. If it's too short for that you could twist it instead...
    Or what about making a faux-hawk type hairdo? Or this...

    I also have long hair (right below my butt) I usually wear it in a french braid and will put the bottom into a bun using chopsticks or a flower clip.
    I also like to wrap the bottom part of the french braid around my head like a crown, you need pretty long hair for that. I also like to do a french braid "mohawk" basically I only french braid straight down the middle until I get to the middle of my head I will then secure it with a clip and leave the rest down or put it into an updo. Here is the link for how to do a french braid.

    If I am in a rush I will just put my hair in a pony, then braid the remaining and put that in a bun. Then pull some of the top to make it a little poofy.(I work in a kitchen so my hair has to be up most days.)

    Try doing a zig-zag part instead of a straight part, it is easy to do and makes a usual hair-do look different. Even doing your hair on the side instead of centered is an easy alternative, braids, buns, and pony's look cute this way. I also like to do Puca buns, there is a tutorial on here for that.

    Hope these styles help you out, I can make a tutorial for anything you are unsure about.

    I have olive undertones like you do and I use Hot Tamale by mabelline. To be honest I got it just because I liked the name Happy

    I have never colored my hair, but I would assume washing your hair in a sink rather than taking a full blown shower would work better. Also a stainless steal sink would be better than a porcelain one since those stain easily.

    I think something like this would be super cute on you. You should def. go darker though.

    I do a 1/2vinegar 1/2water rinse to clean impurities from my hair.

    I like to do a brown sugar and milk scrub for my face and feet.

    Also I do a salt scrub before I wash my hair whenever I get a little dandruff. Works very well.

    @ Romona I have also used to dryer sheet, works really well after you straighten your hair.

    Just make sure your hair is dry obviously..
    Have you tried using a soft foam roller on your bangs at night?

    1st and 2nd would look the cutest I think.
    Also both of these would look good on you. I think you should def. get long side layers. IDK what they are called.
