Q: Hair spray will work better in clean hair, so it's best to start the process fresh from the shower. Also, mohawks and liberty spikes can last for a few days, so you want to make sure the product from the last styling is completely gone. You'll want your hair to be light and fluffy for the actual styling, and blow drying will help create some volume. Make sure that your hair is free from any knots and tangles by running a comb through it as you blow dry. If your hair is still flat without enough body to support a hawk, run a comb backwards against the grain of your hair to give it a little more texture. Pushing more hair down to your scalp will also create a better foundation for the mohawk or spikes to rest on.
A: Wash your hair. Blow dry and remove tangles. Tease your hair if you need more volume.

Q: To start learning algebra, you'll need to know basic math skills such as adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. This primary/elementary school math is essential before you start learning algebra. If you don't have these skills mastered, it will be tricky to tackle the more complex concepts taught in algebra. If you need a refresher on these operations, try our article on basic math skills. You don't necessarily need to be great at doing these basic operations in your head to do algebra problems. Many algebra classes will allow you to use a calculator to save time when doing these simple operations. You should, however, at least know how to do these operations without a calculator for when you aren't allowed to use one. One of the trickiest things about solving an algebra equation as a beginner is knowing where to start. Luckily, there's a specific order for solving these problems: first do any math operations in parentheses, then do exponents, then multiply, then divide, then add, and finally subtract. A handy tool for remembering this order of operations is the acronym PEMDAS.Learn how to apply the order of operations here. To recap, the order of operations is: Parentheses Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction The order of operations is important in algebra because doing the operations in an algebra problem in the wrong order can sometimes affect the answer. For instance, if we're dealing with the math problem 8 + 2 5, if we add 2 to 8 first, we get 10 5 = 50, but if we multiply 2 and 5 first, we get 8 + 10 = 18. Only the second answer is correct. In algebra, it's common to use negative numbers, so it's smart to review how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide negatives before starting to learn algebra. Below are just a few negative number basics to keep in mind for more information, see our articles on adding and subtracting negative numbers and dividing and multiplying negative numbers. On a number line, a negative version of a number is the same distance from zero as the positive, but in the opposite direction. Adding two negative numbers together makes the number more negative (in other words, the digits will be higher, but since the number is negative, it counts as being lower) Two negative signs cancel out subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number Multiplying or dividing two negative numbers gives a positive answer. Multiplying or dividing a positive number and a negative number gives a negative answer. While simple algebra problems can be a snap to solve, more complicated problems can take many, many steps. To avoid errors, keep your work organized by starting a new line every time you make a step toward solving your problem. If you're dealing with a two-sided equation, try to write all the equals signs ("="s) underneath each other. This way, if you make a mistake somewhere, it'll be much easier to find and correct. For example, to solve the equation 9/3 - 5 + 3 4, we might keep our problem organized like this: 9/3 - 5 + 3 4 9/3 - 5 + 12 3 - 5 + 12 3 + 7 10
A: Review your basic math operations. Know the order of operations. Know how to use negative numbers. Know how to keep long problems organized.

Q: To remove lumps, sift the powdered sugar into a medium mixing bowl. Then add the orange zest and whisk the two ingredients together. To change the flavor of the icing slightly, you can also add or substitute different citrus zests, such as lemon, grapefruit, or lime. Add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of juice and whisk to combine. Whisk in more juice as needed if the icing is too thick. The ideal glaze consistency depends on what you're looking for: For a thinner glaze that you can drizzle over cookies and cakes, add more orange juice to make the glaze a little runny. For a thicker glaze that you can dip cupcakes into without it running, add less juice. There are several ways that you can apply a glaze icing to different desserts. Check the recipe you're working with to see if it calls for special instructions. For cakes and Bundt cakes, run a whisk or spoon through the glaze and then drizzle it over the cake, letting the glaze run down the sides. For cupcakes, dip the top of each cupcake into the glaze. Let the excess drip off over the bowl, then flip the cupcake over (right-side up) and let the glaze set for about 15 minutes. For cookies, use a pastry brush to brush the glaze onto the top of each cookie.
A: Whisk together the sugar and zest. Whisk in the orange juice. Apply the glaze.

Q: You'll need your hair to be wet, but not soaked, for this process. Use a spray bottle. If you don't want to step into the shower, use a small spray bottle to dampen your hair. Wet your brush. Run the wet brush through your hair. This will help the mixture grab onto each strand. Before you apply the mixture to your hair, be sure to test some of it on your hand. If your skin has a reaction, don't apply the mixture. There is such a thing as a cinnamon allergy. Rub some of the cinnamon paste onto the back of your hand and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to make sure you don't react. Cinnamon creates a warm tingle but shouldn't burn; if you have a sensitive scalp, this treatment is not recommended. If it does burn, rinse immediately! This will be messy! Have a friend help you if you can. As an alternative, use an applicator brush instead of your hands, which will cut down on the mess. Rub the mixture all over your hands. Apply thoroughly from root to tip. Be sure to use generous amounts of the mixture throughout your hair. If the mixture is too thick, add cup of water to it. If you have thick hair, split it into sections before you apply the mixture. Use hair clips to hold your hair out of the way until you're ready to apply the mixture to it. Be careful to keep the mixture off your neck, as it may irritate the skin there. Give the mixture time to lighten your hair while you sit back and relax. Put your hair in a bun and cover it. You can use a shower cap to easily cover your hair. Leave the mixture in your hair for at least 2-4 hours. If possible, leave it overnight. Put a towel over your pillow. Even if you have a shower cap on, the mixture could make a big mess if you move in your sleep. Put a towel over your pillow to protect it. Be patient. Even though the honey is sticky, it's the cinnamon that will give you the most difficulty when you're cleaning the mixture from your hair. Rinse your hair. Before trying to wash your hair, do your best to rinse the mixture out of it. Shampoo your hair. Once you've rinsed all that you can out of your hair, shampoo thoroughly. You may need to shampoo twice to get all of the cinnamon out. Unlike bleach, this mixture won't create a drastic change. Since the mixture is good for your hair, you can repeat it as many times as you'd like without damage. Do this until you get your desired shade. Lightening your hair with cinnamon is a gradual process. It will only subtly change the color of your hair with each use. It may take three to four applications before your hair becomes noticeably lighter.
A:
Dampen your hair. Test the mixture. Apply the mixture. Let it sit. Clean your hair. Repeat as necessary.
