In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Pull out the jacket that you want to iron and check for any spots, sweat stains, or dirt. Heat will set in stains and make them much harder to remove, so treat any stains or spots before you iron. If you don't have one, use a bath towel folded in half and lay it on a flat surface that will not be damaged by heat, like hardwood or a granite countertop. Your ironing board should be level and be close enough to an electrical outlet if your iron is not cordless. A regular ironing board works fine, though you can also use a thinner sleeve board. Look on the inside lining of your suit jacket for the care instructions and to see what material your jacket is made of. You will need to adjust the heat setting on your iron depending on the suit material. Here are some of the most common jacket materials and their heat settings: Linen or cotton: hot. Synthetic fabric like acrylic, nylon, or silk polyester: cool. Polyester blend, wool: cool-warm. The base of your iron can become dirty over time and leave residue on fabrics. If the base does need to be cleaned, use a damp cloth or a baking soda paste to remove tough stains. To make the paste, mix 1 tablespoon of water with 2 tablespoons of baking soda. Apply the paste and then wipe the iron clean after one minute. While you are ironing, you will need to spritz small amounts of water onto the fabric to prevent it from burning. The water also acts as a steam release to help smooth wrinkles. If your iron has a steam function, you will not need a spray bottle. Make sure to fill your iron with distilled water so the water is heated before you begin. Be sure to use distilled water since tap water can contain high amounts of calcium or minerals that will damage your iron over time. Set the heat setting to reflect your jacket's materials. Allow the iron to heat up. This may take several minute depending on your iron. Most new irons will have an indicator light that will light up when the iron is hot. Do not begin until you are sure that the iron is at the correct temperature. This will help to protect your suit as you iron it and helps to ensure that you won't create any shiny spots on your jacket. A cotton rag or towel will work fine, but a muslin or drill cloth is best. You will want to have a cloth between your iron and each part of the jacket that you are pressing. If you do not have a cloth, flip the jacket inside out and press the fabric through the lining. The lining of your jacket will likely be a different material than the rest of the suit fabric. Be sure to check the care instructions to see what material the lining is and adjust your iron's heat settings accordingly.
Summary: Check your jacket for stains. Set up the ironing board. Check the suit label. Make sure the iron is clean. Fill a spray bottle. Plug in your iron. Place a cloth between the iron and your jacket.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: After the surgery, you won't be able to eat anything crunchy or chewy. You'll also probably not be in the mood to go grocery shopping. Prepare by purchasing plenty of soft food before your surgery. You'll need to have enough to last you for at least 24 hours. However, you'll probably want enough for several days while the swelling goes down. You can begin to introduce other foods when you feel that you can tolerate them. Avoid anything that could get caught in the wound until the wound is healed. Puree things like smoothies or soups in a blender. Strain through a filter before consuming to make sure there are no seeds or herbs that will get caught in the wound. Stay away from spicy foods. They can irritate the wound. Choose plenty of cold foods. They'll feel soothing after the surgery. Some foods that are great for after oral surgery are: Yogurt (frozen or non-frozen) Apple sauce Brothy soups (without any chunks) Mashed potatoes Scrambled eggs Hummus Congee Pudding Ice cream You should not plan to drive after the surgery. Plan for a friend to take you home when the surgery is finished. Even if you don't undergo general anesthesia, you will likely feel too woozy from the surgery to drive. If you usually take public transportation, you may not need someone to accompany you. However, you may still want a buddy. They can make sure you're comfortable on the trip home. Don't plan to walk or bike home yourself. If you live a short distance from the dentist's office, arrange for a cab or a friend to pick you up. You'll need about 48 hours for the swelling to go down. However, the entire recovery can take several weeks. Plan for at least two days that you'll be able to stay home from work. Let your boss know that you're having surgery and you may need to take off a few additional days if your recovery is slower than average. Avoid all strenuous physical activity for a few days after the surgery. This may mean arranging for childcare or a pet sitter during your recovery. You may need friends or family to take care of chores for a day or two. Consider whether you'll need someone to do things like take the garbage out, water the garden, or shovel snow from your sidewalk. Both of these things can be purchased at your local pharmacy. Your dentist may give you a supply of gauze and a prescription for pain relievers. However, it's always good to be prepared with your own. Buy sterilized gauze pads that are safe to put in your mouth. Ask your pharmacist for a recommendation. Choose a pain reliever that doesn't contain caffeine. Caffeine should be avoided while recovering from surgery. You can also keep teabags on hand. They can help control bleeding. Soak one in warm water and then squeeze it dry. Hold it on the wound for 20-30 minutes. You may be resting for a while after the surgery. Create a cozy space in your home where you'll be able to rest comfortably. You should have plenty of pillows and blankets, as well as entertainment. Take out books from the library, or download some books on tape to listen to while you recover. Choose movies or TV shows that you'll want to watch while you're resting. Have them ready to go so you won't have to worry after the surgery. Recovering at home can feel boring and even lonely sometimes. Before the surgery, line up visiting times with friends and family. Let them know you'll want visitors, and schedule times when they can come by. Let your friends know you may be a little bit out of it, but that you'll still be grateful for their company. Don't plan to do too much with your visitors. Simply watching a movie or listening to music together are relaxing ways to enjoy each others company.
Summary: Stock up on soft foods. Arrange transportation. Arrange for time off. Purchase gauze and pain relievers. Prepare for down time. Ask friends to come over.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you have shorter hair, a classic bun will quickly become messy. There are a lot of smoothing serums out there, but it doesn't really matter which one you buy. Get one that suits your hair type (this is usually written on the bottle), but don't worry too much about brand names. Twist your hair and wrap it around the base of the ponytail, forming a bun shape. If the ends are sticking out, tuck them into an elastic, or secure them with bobby pins. You can also use hair wax, or allow strands of hair to fall out naturally. Just remember that the more you allow loose strands to fall out, the more likely it is that your hairstyle will become messy.
Summary:
Use this hairstyle if you have long hair. Run a smoothing serum through your hair. Gather your hair high at the back of your head and secure with a ponytail holder. Tie a second ponytail holder around the bun to secure it. Spray with hairspray to secure any flyaways.
