Q: While most auditions will have a specific scene or group of scenes that you are required to perform, you may sometimes be asked to come up with your own material. That's why it's a good idea to work on a monologue or two, so you'll always be ready when an audition comes up. Make sure to choose a piece that really allows you to showcase your acting skills. If you're not sure what monologue(s) to prepare, consider some of your favorite movies -- there's bound to be a piece in one of them that will work. It's usually best to choose an age-appropriate monologue. If possible, find one that's delivered by character who's as close to you in age as possible. In many cases, the casting company will send you a script or "sides," which are just the portion of the script that pertain to the character that you're reading for, in advance of the audition. Don't just glance at your lines a couple of times to try to memorize them -- make an effort to understand the character and figure out the best way to play the scene. Many casting directors won't mind if you hold your script or sides during your audition. However, it's best if you don't read directly from it. Instead, just glance at it occasionally to remind yourself of the lines. If you really want an acting career, you must take every audition seriously. While you may not have a job yet, you should act like a professional, so the casting director is comfortable working with you. That means being open to any suggestions that he or she might make and being willing to do the scene several times to get it right. Make sure to project confidence during your audition. If you don't believe that you're good enough for the part, the casting director probably won't either. Acting is an extremely competitive business, even for children. As a result, you're probably going to go on many auditions that don't end in a job -- but that doesn't mean you should lose faith in your skills as an actor. As with most things, practice makes perfect, so the more you audition, the better you'll become at impressing casting directors. If you realize at some point that you're no longer having fun pursuing an acting career, talk to your parents. You shouldn't keep at it if it only makes you feel bad about yourself. And maybe if you cant do these things at school then maybe start a little drama club for you and your friends!
A: Prepare a monologue. Study the script or sides. Treat it like work. Don't get discouraged.

Q: A traditional conditioner is applied every time you shower, just after you rinse out your shampoo. This type of conditioner works to repair the damage done by hot tools, chemicals, and general wear-and-tear that your hair experiences on a daily basis. Choose a type of conditioner that is advertised for your specific hair needs; whether you have curly and frizzy hair, dry and damaged hair, colored hair, fine hair, relaxed hair, or limp and lank hair, there is a specific conditioner that can help with each. Hop in the shower, and go along with your regular washing routine. You'll condition your hair after you wash it, so give your scalp and strands a good scrubbing with your favorite shampoo. Focus most of your washing power on the scalp, being careful not to tug at your wet hair as you wash as this can damage the ends and cause more breakage. Use warm water to wash out the shampoo. Warm water is safer on your hair than hot water is. Be careful not to tug on the strands if you run your fingers through it. When your hair feels 'squeaky', you've rinsed out all the shampoo. If your hair is sopping wet, any conditioner you try to apply will run right off and won't stick long enough to affect your hair. If your hair is very short, you probably won't have to do much wringing. If, however, you have long hair, spend a bit of time getting as much water out of it as you can. Pour a bit of conditioner into the palm of your hand; the amount you need will vary depending on the length of your hair. A dime-sized amount is usually recommended for professional conditioners, while drug store brands may require more because they can be diluted. If your hair is very long, you may need a whole palm-full of conditioner. Run this through the ends of your hair, trying to apply it to every strand that you're able. Your conditioner should be applied only to the ends of your hair, as this is the part that is damaged (it's the oldest). Putting conditioner near your scalp and roots can actually clog your follicles, and slow hair growth/increase oil production. This step is slightly optional; the longer you wait and allow your conditioner to set, the more it will be able to do to improve the health of your hair. If you're in a rush, you can rinse it out nearly immediately after, but it won't make your hair as soft and shiny as it normally would. Try applying your conditioner, and then washing the rest of your body/face while it sets. Then when you're finished (normally a minute or two later), you can rinse out your conditioner for maximum effect. Assuming you've turned the water temperature back up for comfort's sake, turn it back down as cold as you can handle it. As aforementioned, the cold water is healthier for your hair. Spend a few minutes rinsing out the conditioner; if your hair still feels 'slimy', then you haven't gotten it all out. When your hair is smooth and no longer feels super slippery, then you're set! Wring out your hair and you're done conditioning.
A:
Choose the right conditioner for your hair type. Wash your hair. Rinse out your shampoo. Wring out your hair. Apply your conditioner. Let the conditioner set. Rinse out the conditioner.
