In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Before you start your straw set, make sure you have everything you need. Both methods will require the same items: drinking straws, bobby pins, scissors, and a water spray bottle. You will also need a wide tooth comb and a few hair clips for sectioning. Cut the bendable top off of each straw you plan to use. If your straws are already straight throughout with no articulated ends, you can use them as-is. When using straight straws, scissors are no longer required. If your hair takes a long time to dry, you will also need a silk headscarf to sleep in. Your hair doesn't need to be clean when styling it, but if you do wash beforehand you will need to let your hair dry first. Avoid using a blow dryer to prevent heat damage. This hair roller method can prevent hair from drying completely. If your hair type retains moisture and you are styling ringlet curls, try to get your hair as dry as possible before you style. This isn't as important for the poofy look, however, since you will be removing the straws before your hair dries completely. If you have natural textured hair, drying it completely before styling isn't necessary. You can start your straw set while your hair is damp or wet if you choose. This step will keep your hair bouncy and help it last longer, particularly if it tends to dry out. First, use a moisturizing product, like leave-in conditioner. Combine it with one of the setting products below, depending on your hair type. If you have fine hair, use a mousse or spray. If you have medium to thick hair with a natural wave, opt for a gel or cream. With relaxed hair, try a trio of leave-in conditioner, wrapping lotion, and castor oil. your hair. Separate a 3 inches (7.6cm) "mohawk" section down the middle of your scalp, around your part and down the back of your head. This will divide your hair into thirds, which are generally good for hair rolling. Comb your hair out and away from your scalp and clip each section in place. Leave the first section you plan on styling loose. How many parts you will section your hair into will be determined by hair length and thickness as well as the amount you feel comfortable working with at a time. You can do a few more sections if your hair is very thick or long.
Summary: Gather your materials. Allow your hair to dry. Moisturize and use setting products. Section

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Mix one part olive oil to one part vinegar. Add a small squirt of lemon oil or fresh lemon juice, if desired. You won't need a lot of solution; you can pour the mixture in a jar, put a lid on the jar and shake to mix. Instead of olive oil, you can try 1/4 cup (60 mL) fresh lemon juice, 1/8 cup (30 mL) distilled vinegar, and 1/8 cup (30 mL) flax oil to restore your wood furniture. Olive oil and vinegar polishes, restores moisture to dry wood, and can remove light scratches and rings from water condensation. Besides having an attractive fragrance, lemon is acidic, so it works as a cleaning agent. For instance, you may want to test the solution in a small area underneath the furniture. Dip your cloth to get just a bit of solution on it. Rub the cloth on the test area, then buff it dry with a clean cloth. If you don't notice any negative effect to the test area, you can proceed with cleaning the whole piece. In addition to or instead of the test area, consult with the manufacturer of your furniture via their website to find the proper care instructions for your furniture. Use a soft, clean rag or a piece of cheese cloth. Dip the rag to get a small amount of the mixture on it. Too much liquid can penetrate the wood and cause damage. Don't pour solution directly onto the furniture. Make sure to distribute the polish evenly. Rub with the grain to remove water marks and scratches. Switch to a clean area of the cloth, or a new cloth, when you see it becoming visibly dirty. Use a clean cloth to buff the wood in circular motions. If you notice any spots that didn't get clean, use the cleaning solution on them and go back to buffing. Make sure to buff away moisture as the last step. Annual or biannual polishing will give your wood furniture moisture and shine, and help prevent it from looking dry and worn.
Summary: Dilute white vinegar with olive oil. Find an inconspicuous area to test. Apply the solution to a cloth. Rub the furniture with the moistened cloth. Buff out excess moisture. Polish the wood one to two times per year.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: As the oven is heating up, line your baking sheet with parchment paper. If you don't have any parchment paper, non-stick cooking spray will do in a pinch, or a little melted butter. You want it to be soft, but not liquidy. Room temperature should be fine, as it will be easy to blend. If you need, put the butter briefly in the microwave 4-5 seconds, tops. Mix everything well so that there are no clumps and everything is well distributed. Cream of tartar leads to a light tang and helps the cookies get fluffy. However, if you want crispier cookies or don't want this tangy edge, you can skip the cream of tartar. Mix the butter/margarine and sugar together until fluffy. Keep your electric beaters on medium speed and work the softened butter until it is a nice whipped, semi-stiff mixture. All of the sugar should be incorporated into the butter. This should only take 3-5 minutes of mixing. Keep the mixer going until the eggs are completely incorporated into the butter mixture. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary, making sure everything is well mixed. Want tangier, less sweet cookies? Skip the vanilla. Add the flour in small chunks, keeping the mixer going the entire time. This prevents flour "explosions," where the beaters scatter the flour instead of mixing it. As you add flour, keep scraping the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is getting added in. After dough is thoroughly mixed, chill it for 30-45 minutes to guarantee the best results. Start with 2 tablespoons of each, adding more as necessary. Feel free to play with this ratio as well -- while few chefs use more cinnamon than sugar, many will add a few extra parts sugar to avoid overly spiced cookies. You can use a small spoon to measure out the dough, then roll it between your palms to form the dough balls. You then roll the dough in the cinnamon sugar to coat it completely. Make sure the cookies are at least 2 inches apart, as they will flatten and spread as they cook. A good snickerdoodle has a light, chewy texture, not a crunch. You want to try and keep the tops of the cookies light, so remove them when the outsides are just getting golden for the best cookies. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minute before eating.
Summary:
Preheat the oven to 400F (205C). Let the butter soften outside the fridge for 5-10 minutes. Whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, cream the butter in with the sugar until completely mixed. Add the vanilla extract and eggs and beat for 2-3 minutes. Turning your mixer to "low" speed, slowly add the flour mixture. In a shallow bowl, mix equal parts white sugar and ground cinnamon. Roll the chilled dough into 1" wide balls, then roll each ball in cinnamon sugar. Set the cookies on the parchment-lined baking sheets and cook for 8-9 minutes. Remove from the oven when the outside edges are just turning golden.
