Q: It is much easier to straighten your hair with a curling iron that has a larger barrel, at least 1 to 2 inches in diameter. A larger barrel will allow you to run the curling iron through sections of your hair more easily and much more quickly than a curling iron with a smaller barrel. If you only have access to a curling iron with a smaller barrel, .75 to 1 inch in diameter, you can still use it to straighten your hair. But it may take more time due to the smaller barrel size. Look for a curling iron that is made of ceramic and/or tourmaline. Ceramic irons are ideal because they help to disperse heat through your hair more evenly. Tourmaline irons are also good for controlling frizz and for locking moisture in your hair when you style it with heat. Many professional grade curling irons are made with ceramic or tourmaline. You may be able to get a more affordable curling iron that is only partly ceramic or tourmaline if you are on a budget. You should also check that the curling iron comes with several heat settings so you can control how much heat you are applying to your hair. This will ensure you do not burn or damage your hair when you use the curling iron. If you have fine hair or hair that is color treated, you should use a low heat setting of below 200 degrees. If you have curly, thick hair, you can use a higher heat setting of 200-300 degrees. Never go above 400 degrees as this can damage your hair, no matter what hair type you have. Make sure you pay attention to how your hair responds to the heat of the curling iron. If you notice a burning smell coming from your hair, the temperature may be too high. However, a burning smell can also indicate that your hair is dirty, wet, or even has too much product on it.
A: Look for a curling iron with a larger barrel. Go for a ceramic curling iron. Make sure the curling iron has a variety of heat settings.

Article: These missionaries devote up to two years of their lives to teaching others about Mormonism. Approach them on the street when you see them or invite them in when they knock on your door. They can tell you more about the Church and invite you to visit it. You will usually be required to take lessons from these missionaries once you've expressed interest in becoming a member. If you don't see them around, invite them to come to you using the Mormon church's website. Once you've expressed your interest, you will become an "investigator." An investigator is invited to take lessons and learn more about the church. This period of learning could take a few weeks or a few months. The lessons conducted by the missionaries are called "discussions." The discussions are usually pretty formal. The missionaries discuss their personal feelings about Mormonism, ask questions, and teach the gospel of Jesus Christ. The "investigation" period depends on the individual's rate of preparation for the baptism. These lessons are often taught in a home setting to a small group. As an investigator, you will be asked to make commitments during your time of study. The commitments range from daily prayer, learning about scripture, and prayerful study of the Book of Mormon. You will also be encouraged to start living the LDS lifestyle. The LDS lifestyle means following a Christlike attitude in your behavior and actions. You will be asked to attend church meetings and serve those in need. You will also be expected to maintain chastity and abstain from harmful substanceslike coffee, tea, tobacco, drugs, and alcohol. You can ask a missionary and member for advice if you aren't sure if a certain item is considered harmful. You will be expected to attend worship services and meetings. When you're attending the services, listen to the messages that are taught, talk to members around you, and try to speak with the bishop/branch president or his counselors. Take notes during the services so that you can review them later.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Meet with Mormon missionaries. Take lessons from the missionaries and members. Make commitments during your study. Begin to follow the LDS lifestyle. Attend Sunday worship services.

Problem: Article: Once you have re-inserted your earring, you want to make sure the hole doesn't close back up. Keep the earring in at all times (even at night) for at least 6 weeks to make sure this doesn't happen again. Once the 6-8 weeks have passed, try not to go more than 1 or 2 days without earrings. The holes can quickly close up again. You'll want to keep earrings in your ears daily for up to a year for the piercing to stay for a significant amount of time. To clean your piercing, use mild soap, saline solution, or warm salt water. Dip a cotton swab into your preferred cleaning solution. Then apply the swab around the piercing to clean it. Do this on the back of the ear as well. Clean your piercing twice daily for up to 6 weeks while it is healing. Avoid harsh soaps and anti-bacterial products when cleaning your piercing. Every time you wash your piercing, which should be at least twice a day, gently twist the earring around in the hole while it's wet. Twist it clockwise, counterclockwise, then slightly back and forth. This will prevent your skin from sticking to the earring. Only twist the earring after you have washed it and while it's still wet. If you twist it too much while it's dry, you may irritate the piercing and delay healing.
Summary: Keep your earrings in for 6-8 weeks to keep the hole open. Clean the piercing twice a day to avoid infection. Twist the earring after cleaning to keep the pierced holes open.
