Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Avoid washing your hair 24 to 48 hours before dyeing it. Use a high quality semi-permanent or permanent black dye. Decide how thick you want the black top layer to be. Separate the top layer from the bottom with clips. Use tin foil to protect the bottom layer of your hair from black dye.

Answer: Your hair may feel a little greasy beforehand, but try to tough it out. The natural oils present in unwashed hair will help to protect your scalp and roots from the hair dye, especially when you get to the red layer. The hair dye will also penetrate your hair better and the results will be more vibrant if your hair isn't squeaky clean when you color it. If you must wash your hair before you dye it, use shampoo only and skip the conditioner. Hair dye has a hard time attaching itself to recently conditioned hair. Skip the grocery store aisle and pick up your dyes at a beauty supply store. These dyes are usually salon-grade products and will produce better results. Opt for liquid formulas over mousse formulas for this liquid black dye will result in a darker and more opaque black than a mousse formula. If you've never dyed your hair before, use a semi-permanent black dye the first time. If you're more experienced, feel free to use permanent color. If you are a natural blonde, you may want to dye your hair dark brown first, then black. Sometimes black dye on naturally blonde hair can result in a greenish tinge. How much black and how much red you want is a completely personal choice there is no "right" way to create this look. As a general rule of thumb, you can start by putting your hair in a half-ponytail. Scoop it all up, starting at your ears, and hold it back in the same place you'd put a ponytail. For a slightly more subtle result, pick up a little more hair after you have it in a half-ponytail. For example, you can part your hair at the nape of your neck. That way, you'll have much more hair to dye black than you do red. Make sure to evaluate the different thickness options before you begin dyeing. It's best not to make any impulse decisions when you're in the middle of the process. Use a hand mirror or have a friend help you so that everything looks even after you separate the top layer from the bottom. Clip your hair firmly into place to avoiding having to deal with wispy pieces falling down while you're coloring it. Make sure that you clip back all of the face-framing pieces of your hair. These pieces need to be dyed black so that the red layer will appear to be "underneath" the black layer. Line a sheet of foil up directly beneath the top layer of your hair. It should hang down over the bottom layer. Make sure the foil extends down at least half the length of your hair. Curl the edges of the foil over the sides of your hair. Clip the foil in place on each side, so the foil will stay in place. The foil should be right beneath the top layer, protecting the uppermost part of the bottom layer. If you feel confident that you can apply the black dye without getting it on the bottom layer of your hair, you can skip the foil.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Tidy up and decorate your space to help it feel more luxurious. Freshen up your rooms with some nice scents. Turn your bathroom into a relaxing spa. Take turns bringing "room service" to others in your home.

Answer: Want to make your home feel like a luxury resort? Start by doing a little tidying up. Put away any messes, make your bed neatly, organize your closets, and set out some nice decor to help set the mood. For example, if you want to feel like you're vacationing in a cabin in the mountains, put out some rustic decorations, like some distressed wood wall plaques or galvanized tin vases. The right smells can really set the mood and help you get into a vacation mindset. Use candles, diffusers, incense, or even fresh flower buds to make your home smell like a spa, a rustic cabin, or a tropical resort. For example, you could use subtle scents of plumeria or coconut in your living room to evoke a tropical paradise, or put fresh roses or lavender around your kitchen to make it feel like a country cottage. Put out some fresh, soft towels, set out a luxurious scented soap, and stock your linen closet with robes and fuzzy slippers. If you want, you can even do a little toilet paper origami to make it feel extra fancy! Taking a nice bath can be a great way to unwind and get into the vacation mindset. Get some scented bath salts, oil beads, or fizzies to make the experience special. You can also spruce up the space with some nice decor, like a pretty shower curtain, a bamboo bath mat, or even a beautiful potted plant, like an orchid or eucalyptus. If you're living with other people, you can help each other get into the vacation groove even more by offering deluxe, hotel-style service. Have a continental breakfast ready for your family when they get up, or take turns making the bed or changing out the towels in the bathroom. If you live alone, even making your own bed and putting a mint on the pillow can make you feel more like you're on vacation!

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify inappropriate behavior from your parents. Recognize physical injuries from sexual abuse. Recognize sexual exploitation regarding media. Understand child-on-child sexual abuse.

Answer: Any type of sexual contact between an adult and a minor is considered abuse. An adult might make threats or use their position of power (as someone most people normally trust, like a coach or teacher) to bully or frighten a younger person into having sex or other sexual activity. If your parents watch you undress (without helping you get dressed), take pictures of you without any clothes on, touch the areas of your body that are private in a way that makes you scared or uncomfortable, or pressure/force you to look at or touch their private parts, that is sexual abuse. Sometimes being touched sexually can feel good, which can be confusing. The person doesn't have to be hurting you for it to be sexual abuse. Not all sexual abuse leaves a physical injury, but many acts of sexual abuse do leave bruising, bleeding, and other injuries. Sexual abuse can also cause sexually transmitted infections and even pregnancy in some cases. Common symptoms of sexual abuse include, but are not limited to: Difficulty walking or sitting because of physical pain Bruises, pain, or bleeding from your penis, vagina, or anus Painful discharge during urination or other sign of an STD, frequent yeast infections or urinary tract infections Parents should not be exposing you to pornography, or creating pornography about you. Some of this involves grooming, or exposing you to sexually explicit content, to make you more open to doing it. Or they may use videos/images of you for sexual use, by themselves or others. Exposing you to pornography on purpose (videos, photos, books, et cetera) Videotaping or taking photos of you naked, for sexual purposes Writing about your private parts Sometimes a child is sexually abused by another child. When this happens, it is usually because the first child is reenacting abuse that was forced on them. Most children do not have an understanding of sex, so generally if another child forces you or a sibling to engage in some type of sexual behavior, it's usually a sign that the child was abused by someone. Talk to a trusted adult if you think someone you know is a victim of sexual abuse, just as you would talk to a trusted adult about your own parents abusing you.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Clarify your life goals. Recognize your strengths. Identify obstacles that may interfere with your goal.

Answer:
You may be passionate about obtaining an advanced degree, starting a family, creating a successful business or writing a book. Begin visualizing these goals and talk to competent people about how you might achieve your aspirations. Ask yourself what really makes you happy and try to follow your happiness. It is a bad idea to follow a life trajectory just because someone tells you to. However, other people will be able to recognize your strengths in an unbiased way that you often cannot. Listen to what they say about your strengths and weaknesses. Try to tailor your goals to your strengths. For example, if you are good at drawing, consider careers in visual design. If you are good at writing, think about how you can leverage that in your own career. That doesn't necessarily mean that you should commit yourself to being a novelist or an artist, which can be difficult careers. But you should consider other careers that utilize these skills, like advertising, architecture, interior design, or law. For example, you might have an innovative business concept, but not enough capital to get it off the ground. It is impractical to get into sports or some professional careers past a certain age. Talk to people who have followed the route you are entertaining to determine if it is viable option for you.
