article: Hair is a fiber: think of it as a delicate wool. Just like wool, it is particularly fragile when wet. To minimize damage, avoid brushing your hair when it's wet, and never use heating irons (curling or flattening) on wet locks. Using a wide-tooth comb, start from the bottom of your hair and detangle the last few inches. Next, detangle a few inches higher, working your way up to the top. This gentler method detangles gradually, which is a less damaging and will lead to less breakage than yanking a comb from the roots to the ends. Try to let hair dry just a little before combing. Brushing your hair causes friction, which damages the cuticle and leaves hair frizzy and dull. Detangle with a wide-tooth comb, and only brush when you need to for styling purposes. Use a paddle brush with ball-tipped bristles, which is gentler on the hair. Towels can cause friction and can rough up the hair cuticle, causing frizz (particularly if you rub your hair with one). A soft cotton t-shirt, on the other hand, is a much gentler way to absorb excess water. Instead of wringing out your hair, wrap it in the t-shirt. Let your hair air dry if possible. If you do use a hair dryer, use it on the lowest setting. If you're using a curling or flattening iron, minimize the time it contacts your hair, limiting it to 3-4 seconds per section. Always apply a heat-protective product beforehand to help prevent heat damage. This includes relaxers, perms, dyes (particularly with ammonia or peroxide), and bleaching/lightening your hair. In particular, don't re-bleach, re-relax, or re-perm hair that has already been treated, as this can drastically weaken hair. It is fine to get a touchup every six weeks or so, but this treatment is only applied to the new growth. There's no need to spend money on commercial hot-oil treatments. Instead, apply coconut or olive oil to dry hair, wrap it in a t-shirt (or cover with a shower cap), and let it sit overnight. Rinse it out the next day with lukewarm water. Do this treatment once a week. regularly. While it's a myth that this can actually make your hair grow faster, split ends can actually inhibit the growth of long, healthy hair. Neglected split ends can travel up the hair shaft all the way to the roots. What's worse, you can develop multiple split ends, where the splits themselves develop splits. To keep this problem at bay, cut your hair every 8 to 12 weeks, and ask your stylist to take off the ends only. Anything that feels like it's pulling is probably too tight and may cause traction alopecia (hair loss). Extensions and cornrows can also cause damage. Instead, stick with looser ponytails or braids.

article: It's impossible to laugh while you're inhaling. If you're afraid you can't keep a straight face, take a deep breath in and let it out slowly. Repeat this as many times as you need to until you feel like you don't need to laugh anymore. Don't take a huge deep breath with your mouth open - it might be obvious what you're trying to do. Instead, take a deep breath through your nose, since that should make your breath quieter. To get a good, deep breath, you should inhale for 2 to 3 seconds and exhale for 3 to 4. Pursing your lips together can help prevent a smile from spreading across your face. Clench your jaw and press your lips together. With your jaw clenched and your lips together, you won't be able to laugh out loud. If you're worried pursing your lips will be obvious, clench your jaw tighter. Doing both will keep you from losing your straight face, but clenching your jaw will make it less obvious what you're doing. If you feel liking pursing your lips isn't working, try biting the inside of your cheek. It's easier to keep your face straight when your cheek is sucked in. And if all else fails, the pain should help you keep your feelings to yourself. If you're worried about looking obvious when you're biting the inside of you cheek, use your hand to pretend to wipe across your mouth. As you're doing that, bite the inside of your cheek. If you're really afraid you can't stop yourself from smiling, cover your mouth with your hand. Try not to be super obvious when you do it, though. Cover the corner of your mouth with your fingers or pinch your lips together. If you really can't keep a straight face, pretend to cough or sneeze. That gives you a chance to hide your face when you cover your mouth and contort your face if you can't keep it straight.

uy in bulk. As a general rule, the more you buy, the better the deal. If it makes sense to go for the larger quantity of a product, it will save you money in the long run. Today, there are many bargain retailers like Sam's Club and Costco that carry nothing but bulk products. Remember to only buy in bulk when you'll actually use all of whatever you're buying over time. For instance, bulk food can be wasteful if you let it pass its expiration date without eating it. Good things to buy in bulk include foods with a long shelf life (like baking supplies, canned goods, or frozen foods), hygiene products (like shampoo, toilet paper, or toothpaste), and household cleaners and goods (like light bulbs, detergent, or trash bags). . Before you purchase anything, make sure that you're getting it at the lowest possible price. For big purchases, do an internet search by the product's name to see if you can find the best deal. Price comparison websites, such as GoCompare, SuperMoneyMarket, and Price Runner, can be good resources for tracking down the best deals for products and services. When you shop for groceries, keep track of which store offers a given product most cheaply. Buying cheap products doesn't necessarily save you money. If you go through half a dozen pairs of cheap shoes in the same time it would take you to wear out one pair at a higher price point, that's not a good value. Look for products that will give you the most bang for your buck, not the ones that are the least expensive. Besides first-hand experience, the easy way to gauge the relative value of products is to read consumer reviews associated with each of your options to assess their comparative quality and customer satisfaction. . While not all price tags are negotiable, you'd be surprised at how many costs and payments are. Used goods, service agreements, insurances, rents, fees, benefits, salaries, and wages are all generally subject to negotiation. Approach the proceedings with confidences, firmness, and fairness, and you'll often come out ahead. Service agreements, such as communications services, credit card contracts, and even medical bills, are often negotiable. For instance, you could call a credit card company and say: "Hi, I recently received an offer for a card from another company with a low, fixed APR. Since I've been a longtime customer with you, I was wondering if you could match that rate. If not, I'll have to go with the new company." If you're worried about attempting negotiations, try practicing in low-stakes venues where haggling is normal, like flea markets or estate sales. Ask the vendors questions like: "Are you flexible on that price?" or "Would you accept $60 cash for that chair?" Informed negotiators generally fare better. Do a little research into the market so that you have a better sense of what a good deal or fair cost would be. If you can say something like, "the Crain Dealership is offering this same car in the same condition but with fewer miles for $1000 less," it makes your case more compelling. Be ready to walk away. To be a successful negotiator, you have to be ready to leave behind a bad deal. For example, if your credit card provider is not willing to reduce your APR to match that of a competitor, just say: "Alright, then can you please terminate my account?" Avoid buying things at full price. If you'd really like a particular item, wait to buy it until it's on sale or a coupon item or offered as part of a special deal. Sometimes this means buying things out of season, so plan ahead. For instance, you can get your Christmas presents or winter gear for the next year during post-holiday January sales. Similarly, you might wait to buy clothing until it's on clearance at the end of the season instead of paying full price when a style is first released. When you grocery shop, let coupons help determine your purchases. If there are items on sale that you regularly use, stock up while they're on discount. If you're making travel purchases, research when the best time to buy a plane ticket is or wait until a particular airline is offering a deal. You can also sign up for fare alerts from travel sites like Travelocity or Kayak, which track the rates for each flight and offer predictions about whether they're likely to go up or down.
