Even the coolest stylist might not know exactly what you have in mind when you say "emo hair," especially since that term can cover a variety of looks. Cut out pictures from magazines or show your stylist pictures on your phone so they'll know the look you're going for. Bangs are a trademark of emo style. Ask your stylist to give you long, razor-cut bangs that start from a deep part on one side. Your stylist can create blunt, choppy layers by cutting your hair with a straight razor. Razor cutting can cause split ends on your hair, so ask your stylist to use a brand-new razor on your hair to minimize damage. Emo styles generally have a lot of volume on top and taper down at the bottom. Ask your stylist to use thinning shears to thin out the bottom few inches of your hair to really emphasize your layers. Since you'll be sporting short layers and heavy bangs, it's best to get a trim every 4 weeks. You can get away with waiting up to 6 weeks, but split ends and grown-out bangs will start making your emo hair look sloppy if you wait much longer than that.

Summary: Bring inspiration pictures. Request long, side-swept bangs to get a signature emo style. Ask for a razor cut for blunt layers. Ask your stylist to thin out the bottom 34 inches (7.610.2cm) of your hair. Return for a trim every 4-6 weeks.

Place all of the spices in a small bowl and stir until combined. On a clean surface, sprinkle the spice mix evenly over the pork and massage into the meat with your fingers. Use a double layer of plastic wrap to firmly cover the meat. Leave it to sit in the refrigerator for as little as three hours, or as long as three days. The longer you leave the meat, the more flavor it will develop. Pour 1/4 cup of water over the meat, then add the liquid smoke, if using. Set the crockpot to a low heat and cook the pork for 8-10 hours, until the meat is tender enough to shred with a fork. Place the roast of pork on a cutting board. Then, using two forks, shred the meat, discarding any fat, bones or skin. Return the shredded meat to the crockpot and stir in a cup of barbecue sauce. Continue to cook on low for 30-60 minutes, until hot. Serve the pulled pork with hamburger buns or rolls, additional barbecue sauce and some homemade coleslaw.

Summary: Make the spice rub. Rub the mixed spices into the meat. Unwrap the pork and place it in the crockpot. Remove the pork and drain any liquid from the crockpot. Continue cooking. Serve.

This is the only way you'll know if they've read your message. If your outgoing messages are blue, the person can receive iMessages. If outgoing messages are green, the person is using a non-iMessage phone or tablet (usually an Android). You won't be able to see when this person has read your messages. As long as you and your contact both have enabled this feature, you'll be able to see when you've read each others' messages. If only you have it on, they'll see when you read their messages, but you won't know when they read yours. Here's how to turn on read receipts: Open your iPhone's Settings. Scroll down and tap Messages. Slide the "Send Read Receipts" switch to the On (green) position. iMessages are sent over the internet, so make sure you're connected to Wi-Fi or your mobile network. If you're not online, your message will be sent as a regular SMS and you won't know when it's been read. It's a green and white chat bubble icon typically at the bottom of the home screen. Make sure you see "iMessage" in the typing area. This means you're connected to the internet and the person you're writing can receive iMessages. When you send an iMessage, you'll see the word "Delivered" below when the message has been sent. If the recipient has read receipts on, you'll see "Read" below the message.

Summary: Make sure the person you're texting is also using iMessages. Turn on read receipts. Connect to the internet. Open Messages. Write or reply to a message. Send the message. Wait for a read receipt.

Some people use the term 'double-brewed' tea to refer to concentrated tea that has been steeped twice, but the phrase can also be used to mean tea that has been brewed with reused teabags. Simply leave the teabags in the water for 2-3 minutes longer than usual to account for the loss of effectiveness. You should not reuse teabags in this manner more than once or twice. If you are not planning on reusing them right away, put them in the refrigerator in enough water to keep them completely wet. Storing used teabags at room temperature or in dry conditions can cause mold growth and invite unwanted bacteria. Old teabags can be reused quite easily during cooking. Experimenting with old teabags in the kitchen may impart color and flavor to foods. For instance, adding chamomile or jasmine tea to rice can infuse it with a delicate fragrance, and Chai or cinnamon tea can boost the flavors in a simple bowl of oatmeal. Place old teabags in the water you are using to boil pasta or rice for added flavor. Add old teabags to the water you have just used to boil eggs for added flavor and color. Add tea to your meat smoker for tea-infused smoked meats. Mixing teabags into soil has a great number of beneficial effects, including increasing nitrogen and acidity levels, attracting good bacteria, lowering the pH level of the soil, and giving earthworms something good to eat. You can also add old teabags to your compost pile, as long as they are not made of plastic and you remove any metal staples first. Because teabags are absorbent and aromatic, they can be used to mitigate offensive smells. Peppermint and cinnamon flavored teas in particular have a very strong and pleasant aromas. Place used teabags in the trashcan and refrigerator to dispel bad odors. Scrub your hands with used teabags to remove unpleasant scents like those of garlic or fish. Turn old teabags into air fresheners by waiting until they are completely dry and adding a couple of drops of essential oil, like lavender or peppermint.
Summary: Make double-brewed tea. Add flavor to food. Care for your garden. Disguise bad odors.
