Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a dark-colored root touch-up pen, powder or wand. Try makeup in a pinch. Use a spray-on hair color. Use a root-coloring kit.

Answer: You can find these products online and in well-stocked salons and beauty-supply stores. The pen looks like a felt-tipped eyeliner, while the powder looks like eyeshadow. Hair mascara contains a wand that looks like a mascara brush. These are intended to be used in hair for covering up roots between dye jobs. These kits will contain all of the products you need to apply them. Follow the application instructions included with your kit as each brand will be different. Makeup products, such as mascara, eyebrow pencil, tinted brow gel, or eyeshadow are all great options. They aren't going to be as concentrated or long-lasting compared to root touch-up pens or powders, but they work in a pinch. Apply mascara with a clean spoolie; don't use the same one you'd use on you lashes. Apply eyeshadow with a larger brush. You can even use a flat paintbrush that has kanekalon, sable, or taklon bristles. Spray-on color is a cheap, quick option that comes in many natural or bright colors. It won't last very long, however. You can find sprays online and in salons and beauty-supply stores. To use the spray-on color: Hold the can 2 to 3 inches (5.08 to 7.62 centimeters) from your roots. Spray on the color using a sweeping motion. Wait for the spray-on color to dry Brush your hair to further blend in the color. They are a miniature versions of hair dye kits. They come with dye and developer, as well as a fine-toothed, flexible comb. Prepare the dye according to the directions on the package, then apply it to your roots. Allow the dye to process for the recommended time on the package, then rinse it out. Root-coloring kits are typically semi-permanent and can last several washes.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wait until your hair is at the right shade to tone. Tone after bleaching. Use toner after dyeing your hair. Know that you may not be able to get your desired shade at first.

Answer: You can't tone whenever you want. To achieve the color tone you want, you need your hair to be at the right shade of yellow. If you want a light ashy or cool color, you have to make sure your hair is at a light yellow color before using the toner. If you use toner at the wrong shade of yellow, you won't get the result you want. Toning works well with bleached hair. To achieve certain shades of blonde, you will have to bleach your hair first and then add toner. Toner also helps even out hair color after bleaching. Some toners can only be used days after you've bleached your hair. For some desired shades, you have to bleach your hair more than once over a period of time to achieve the color. This is especially true if you start with dark brown or black hair and you're wanting it to be blonde. Toner can also be used when you dye your hair. Sometimes, the hair color you end up with is not exactly what you want. To help remove certain pigments, like if your hair has too much red or brassiness, you can use toner to even out your dye job or adjust the color. Toner can sometimes be used after a bad or undesirable dye job. It can't change your hair color, but it can even out your shade. Some shades may take time to achieve. This is because your hair may still have too much red or yellow pigment in it to achieve the cool or ashy shade you desire. Listen to your salon professional's advice to help you work towards eventually achieving the desired shade. For example, at first you may not be able to get a silver blonde. The silver blonde toner may make your hair green or another shade. Instead, you may have to bleach your hair a few more times before your hair is stripped of the red and yellow. Always keep a color wheel handy while bleaching, dyeing, and toning your hair so that you can pay attention to your hair's current color and undertones. This way, you can avoid ending up with a hair color that's different than what you were hoping for and expecting.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify the location of your goldfish's teeth. Learn about your goldfish's digestive system. Learn about the purpose of your goldfish's swim bladder.

Answer: Goldfish do not have teeth in their jaws. Their teeth are located in the back of their throat, which allows them to crush food and swallow food whole. If you listen closely enough, you may actually be able to hear a crunching noise from your goldfish's teeth as he chews on his food. Goldfish do not have stomachs. Instead, your goldfish's intestines do the digestive work that a stomach would normally do. In addition, the lack of a stomach means that your goldfish cannot eat much food at a time; the food that he can eat will move quickly through his digestive system.The lack of a stomach makes your goldfish more susceptible to digestive problems if he is not fed properly. Your goldfish's swim bladder is an internal gas-filled organ that allows him to stay buoyant in the water. If not fed the proper diet, your goldfish can develop problems with his swim bladder, which means that he would not be able to easily stay afloat in the water.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Meet the doctor or midwife in advance. Rehearse advocacy statements with the mother or a friend. Introduce yourself to the labor team upon arrival. Be vocal but understand that the mother's opinion may change.

Answer:
Obstetricians and nurses frequently work with birth advocates and are often happy to meet them in advance. Just contact the hospital or birth center beforehand and schedule an appointment. Take advantage of an advance meeting to discuss the mother's preferences with the delivery doctor, midwife, or nurses. This will make communication easier during the delivery and give you all the opportunity to address potential concerns prior to the delivery. Some doctors or nurses may be very happy to give you pointers for communicating with them and other birthing staff during the delivery. They may also be able to tell you what to expect about interacting with staff and helping advocate for the mother in a way that the staff will respect and appreciate. If your role will involve firm statements about the mother's decisions, practice speaking in a firm but respectful tone to give you the confidence you need to effectively communicate for the mother during delivery. She may be unable to effectively advocate for herself at certain points during labor and delivery. Some sample advocacy statements are: "She does not want any medication." "She wants to delay cutting the umbilical cord by 2 minutes." "She would like some time alone with the baby." Once the mother has been admitted for the birth, let staff know who you are and why you are there so that they know who to consult with questions or concerns first. Introducing yourself will also remind the staff that you are there for the mother and that she has clear expectations for what she wants out of her delivery and assistance. As a birth advocate, your job is to verbally defend the mother's decisions as much as necessary, but if the mother has changed her mind it becomes your job to defend her new choices. Your most important job is to be there for her. If a mother is disappointed to have to accept medical or surgical intervention due to the circumstances of her delivery, your role as a birth advocate will become essential to her confidence and satisfaction with the birth process. Remind her that she is making the best decision for her and her baby and refocus her on safely delivering a healthy child. For example, if she is upset about needing surgical intervention, you can say "I know this isn't what you wanted, but what is most important right now is that the baby is healthy and safe" or "Just think about how amazing it will be to hold your baby in your arms."
