    Ladies with cigarettes

    The e-cigs are strange in the fact that it isn't an object that is technically on fire, it is more of like smoking an iced hookah that doesn't smell at all. It is great if you don't want the smell or strong taste of a tobacco cigarette. Oh another note I just got a cigarette holder and am...

    How long can I keep my rollers in until it's bad for my hair?

    Depending on how tight they are in you hair is all the really matters. If it isn't hurting your scalp because it is to tight then there really isn't a problem for a day or two. The only thing is that your roller parts that you have will get even more set in and could it could be harder to...

    How do I hide a scar on my face?

    Sorry to hear about your accident. The surgeon did a very good job. It is still in the healing process so I would recommend mederma to make the scar vanish. I have a similar scar that cause nerve damage since it is located on my upper eyelid that all it needs is concealer and powder to cover it...

    Liquid Latex Spill!

    You could try the old fail safe of trying to iron it out like you would if you had spilt candle wax. Cut a brown paper bag to the correct size place one piece under the spill one on the top and iron away.

    Clarisonic?

    All it is is a minor exfoliating brush, that has quite the price tag. A good exfoliator done manually will be better in the long run for your skins health. If you are looking into better exfoliation save your money for microdermabrasion or a good chemical peel with a pH of around 3.

    Freelance Hair/Makeup~Steps Towards?

    I do freelance hair and makeup in California, I am a licensed Cosmetologist and Esthetician. You really have to go to your Board of Barbering and Cosmetology for your state to see if it is legal in your state to simply style hair without a license. If you are in TN I believe this is the website...

    How do you clean cigarette holders?

    This site seems to have a bunch of different pipe cleaners that could possibly fit in the hole of the black part. Here is a link to their thin pipe cleaners http://www.tinderbox.com/s.nl/it.A/id.1420/.f I think if you dip the pipe cleaner is some warm soapy water clean in there and then follow...

    Red Faced Woman

    If you can get your hands on an aloe vera plant cut it open and get the aloe out and apply it on your chin before you go to bed. It should calm the redness down, if you can chill it before hand it will be better. The ingredient that is probably making you flare up is phenylephrine which is...

    Perm Pics

    A perm is a wonderful thing the main thing about it though is that the perm rod size you use will get you different results, the larger the rod the softer the wave you will get in your hair. A perm does not wash or brush out it has to grow out. It will become weaker over time but that perm will...

    Vintage Manicures

    I start with a line down the center so I get something to aim for when I go side to side, it also helps with keeping the half moons uniform. It also takes off some of the nail polish that is on the brush so I don't have such a loaded brush.

    False nails...

    Your nails have to be filed before the application of any type of false nail to allow the product to adhere better to your nail therefore allowing for a stronger nail. If you need to get your nails done do not allow the tech to use the electric nail file drill but just a course nail file. If...

    Curlers and hair loss

    Depending on your hair type, texture and services it has recieved you could be breaking your hair off with the rollers. It would be best to do a test run for a month or so of not using them and use a curling iron if you need curl in your hair. Don't use hot rollers as they are heavy and could...

    Do you wear curlers in front of your Significant Other?

    I refuse to go out or be seen in rollers or pincurls, since this is the case I have invested in a late 1930's hood dryer that will get me dry in 45 minutes flat. I just don't like to look undone in front of random people and believe that I need to look polished in front of my significant other.
