If your hair is normally straight, change your look by adding some waves or curls. If it's naturally wavy, try straightening your hair to transform your look. It sounds too easy, but a simple change in hair texture can completely change the way your face looks. Here are a few popular styles to try: Long, beachy waves Pin-straight hair Bouncy curls If everyone else you know has long, tousled waves, maybe it's time to do something different. Consider cutting your hair in a chic, short style that will help you stand out from the crowd and look far more exotic than your peers. The fact that you were bold enough to cut your hair short will lend a mysterious air to your personality. Here are a few great short looks to consider: Classic pixie cut Rockerish faux hawk Blunt bob If you have dark hair, try going blond for a look that's exotic to you. If your hair is fair, dye it dark brown or even black. Changing your hair color is one of the best ways to add an element of the exotic to your look. No matter what your natural hair color is, dyeing it a different color will instantly make you feel different. You could also dye your hair a bold color. There's always something exotic about a midnight black or a peroxide blonde, but what about red with a streak of purple or strawberry blonde with pink tips? Or go for the popular ombre look, with hair that fades from dark to light, or vice versa. Extensions are a great way to change your look in a heartbeat. With super long hair, the options are virtually endless. You could also get extensions that aren't your hair color or go for a dip-dyed or ombre look. And if you go the temporary route (the kind that just clips in), you can experiment until you find a look you love. Extensions are hard to maintain. Think about how much work you want to put into your look before you go dishing out some cash for the extra hair. They're also damaging to hair if they aren't put in correctly, so make sure you see an experienced stylist. Hair wraps, feathers, beads, and other pretty accessories will make your hair look different from everyone else's. If you're looking for an easy option, find clip-ins to add to your tresses.

It's extra important to have a comfortable, supportive mattress if you have scoliosis. For most individuals, a medium to firm mattress is the best choice, although it's most important that you are comfortable. Memory foam may not be the right choice for people with scoliosis, as it does not always provide as much support as a traditional mattress. Many people who have scoliosis do not have the proper amount of curvature in their necks and low backs. Try sleeping on a cervical pillow and a lumbar roll to help encourage your spine to curve in a healthy way. A single pillow or roll is preferable to multiple pillows. Sleeping on a stack of pillows can be harmful. If you have a brace to correct the curvature in your spine, it's important that you wear it as much as your doctor tells you to. Most patients are supposed to wear their braces 21 hours or more each day, which means they must keep them on at night.
