Purchasing online can be discreet and simple. There are endless options for styles and looks online. Try to find reviews for any websites, and consider return or exchange policies before finalizing a purchase. Purchasing a corset in-store is a great option because it allows you the opportunity to try before you buy. This can help you find the perfect size, and the most flattering style for your body before you ever spend a dime. Ordering a custom corset from someone who specializes in their creation can be an exciting experience that offers the best quality corset. This is a good option for a very specific look as they are able to customize nearly every aspect of the corset to your specifications. Professional measuring and tailoring can provide the perfect fit. However, this quality will generally be more of an investment because it is costlier and more time-consuming. A good corset will have smooth seams and no extra threads hanging loose. Also, the stitching should be consistent, and there should be no rippling or ridges in the fabric when the corset is worn. Any corset you want to last for many uses should have multiple layers of fabric. Also examine the quality of material. Most quality corsets will use all-natural fabrics for the inner-layer and high-quality materials for the outside fashion fabric. Consider characteristics like transparency, stretch, breathability, durability, and look. A good indicator of quality is whether or not the pattern in the fabric matches at the front seams. Attention to detail is important and this is one simple step that low-quality corset manufacturers might skip. Any damage or mistakes should be noted immediately and is unacceptable. Take pictures of any damage or mistakes to facilitate a return to an online seller. When you are wearing your corset it should be comfortable. If it causes any pain or significant discomfort it can be a sign that it is poor quality or ill-fitting. Let your corsetiere know if you are not happy with any aspect of the look or quality of your corset. It is not uncommon to have to have two or three fittings before getting the corset perfect. Do not be afraid to voice your opinions and let your corsetiere know if you want any changes made.

Local businesses often have reams of unused paper goods that might include outdated letterhead, envelopes of the wrong size and old signs. Ask companies in your neighborhood or your parents' places of business to donate these paper goods to your school. (In many cases, it's tax-deductible!) Besides being better for the environment, recycled paper products can be less expensive, too. You can also find products made from non-tree sources such as hemp, bamboo, banana, kenaf and crushed stone. Ask your administration to forgo product catalogs and purchase supplies from companies that have websites or page-flipping catalogs and online ordering. Encourage your school to eliminate paper promotional materials and put all newsletters and catalogs online themselves. You can purchase notebooks made from recycled paper. Once you do, go a few steps further in your paper-saving efforts and use both sides of the paper. Write smaller (but still large enough for you to read what you've written) and avoid leaving a lot of white space on the page. Don't do silly things with paper such as passing notes, making airplanes or spitballs or throwing it at your classmates' heads. These activities are both paper-wasting and trouble-making. Rather than work out math equations or create brainstorm lists or do other in-class activities on paper, students could use small white boards with ultra low-odor dry-erase markers. Some marker brands are even made from recycled materials and are refillable, too. Paper products are used in the kitchen, cafeteria and restrooms at school, so strategies for reducing paper waste should take these areas into account as well. Be sure your school is buying napkins, paper towels and bathroom tissue made from recycled paper. Lobby for hand dryers instead of paper towels. Post reminder "These Come From Trees" stickers on napkin and paper towel dispensers to help remind people to reduce unnecessary use.

Waxing is arguably the best-known, most common method of dealing with leg hair at the roots. If you get your legs waxed at a salon, the process will be less painful as opposed to a home treatment. You can get your hair waxed for anywhere from $35-80 at a salon. Your skin will be smooth for three weeks on average. After that, it'll be time to return to the salon for another session. Although latest advances in waxing technology will allow you to wax your skin earlier than before, you still need to let hair grow to 2-4mm. Although no one likes having to wait for their hair to grow, 2 millimetres is barely anything, any you'll have it waxed off in no tie. Allowing your hair to grow longer may result in a more painful tear. 2-4mm may not be enough for cheaper waxing strips. It's a good idea to follow the instructions of whatever kit you're using. Exfoliating your skin with an abrasive loofah and a moisturizing cream will help maximize the waxing strips' grip on your hairs. Try to do it a day in advance; that way, you can limit the risk of irritating your skin. Heat the wax according to the instructions of the particular kit you're using, and apply it to your skin in the direction the hair grows in. You can rub them vigorously, or hold them over a candle until they heat. Apply the strips evenly, and make sure they're relatively smooth on your skin before you tear them off. You can also make hair removal wax at home, if you're the DIY type. Speed is the key in making your waxing as painless as possible. Take your strips at the end at pull them off as you would a band-aid. Tear it away in a short, swift motion. It also helps to wax during a time where you're not feeling otherwise rushed or stressed. The body is more receptive to pain when your nerves are frayed. Giving your skin a soft oil-based massage can help to alleviate some of the pain or irritation the waxing strips may have caused you. Waxing strips are a great way of getting rid of your fur for a few weeks, but anyone who does it regularly will swear by the grief it causes. Putting a relaxing reward at the end of it all can make the entire process easier to withstand.
