Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Detangle your hair gently as needed. Get regular trims. Wear protective hairstyles. Take vitamins that support hair growth. Care for your overall health.

Answer: Detangling can be a challenge with kinky or curly hair, and using harsh methods can cause breakage and inhibit growth. Moisturize your hair and then carefully remove any tangles with a wide-toothed comb, boar bristle brush, or your fingers. Finger-combing is the gentlest method of detangling hair, so this may be the best option if you have fragile 4B or 4C hair. Always start detangling at the ends of your hair, and work your way up toward the roots. Try detangling your hair once a week, and adjust how frequently you detangle depending on your hair's needs. The ends of your hair are susceptible to dryness and breakage. Once the ends start to break, the damage can easily travel up the shaft of the hair and inhibit growth. Get your hair trimmed once every other month to keep the ends healthy and prevent any damage from spreading. While tight weaves and braids can damage your hair and scalp, other hairstyles can protect your hair from damage and promote growth. Use gentle styles that are easy to maintain, like box braids, Marley braids, cornrows, or twists. Avoid using rubber bands to tie up your hair, since these can cause breakage. Use gentle fabric hair ties instead. There are a variety of supplements on the market that can help strengthen your hair and promote optimal growth rates. Before you start taking any supplement, talk to your doctor about the possible risks and benefits. Biotin (vitamin B-7) is the vitamin most commonly recommended for promoting hair growth. However, other supplements may also be helpful, such as: Vitamin D B-complex vitamins Vitamin E Vitamin A You need a healthy body to grow healthy hair. You can maximize your hair growth potential and keep your hair strong by getting proper nutrition and minimizing stress on your body and mind. Do your best to: Eat a balanced diet rich in leafy greens, lean protein, healthy fats, and dietary fiber. Stay hydrated. Get 7-9 hours of sleep every night. Get at least half an hour of physical activity each day. Engage in stress-relieving activities, like yoga, mindful meditation, or hobbies you enjoy.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Get into wind-up position. Make a small step with your left foot to the left. Lift your left leg to the point where your thigh becomes parallel with the ground or higher. Break your arms in a downward semi-circular motion. Lower your leg as close to the ground without touching it, and then stride outwards. Land your front foot at a closed angle. Push off with your back foot, out of the power position. Extend your pitching arm as far as you can, and let the ball glide off your wrist. Follow through.

Answer: Place both feet shoulder width apart standing straight on top of the mound with your toes dangling off the front, and face directly towards your catcher, your toes pointed towards him with your heels on the rubber. Hold your glove in front of your chest, with your elbows resting on both sides of your torso. Some pitchers prefer to stand with their stride leg slightly behind their other leg. This is optional and may not work for everyone. Your should start in the stretch position when there are runners on the bases. Place your feet so they face third base if you throw right-handed or first base if you throw left-handed. The stretch is a faster way to pitch and you can maintain more balance, resulting in more control. Your right foot should be placed against the rubber, with your other foot one to two inches in front. This will enable you to get a full rotation with your hips, which will make you throw harder. If you start with your stride leg slightly back, simply shift your weight to that back leg. Shift your weight to your left foot, allowing you to lift your right foot and place it beside the rubber (or pivot your right foot into this position, whichever is more comfortable), so that the right side of your right foot is pressing against the mound. Your body should have begun to move with your right foot in the previous step, and at the end of this step your body should be facing third base instead of home plate. Your front arm should stay closed and your front elbow should be at a comfortable angle (45-90 degrees). Your throwing arm should hit what's called your "sweet spot" which is the point where you throwing arm is at its lowest point during your motion. Normally, it is at the point where your arm is nearly perpendicular to the ground, with a slight bend in your elbow. Ensure that your body stays facing third base through this step, and that you hit your sweet spot before continuing to the next step. Do this at the same time as moving your arms (the previous step). To lower your leg, bend your right knee until your left leg is close to the ground without touching the ground. Don't stride outwards until you have lowered your left leg fully or you will lose substantial power. Your front leg should have a curved "down and out" sweep towards home. As you are doing this, begin to raise your throwing arm out of the sweet spot so that is is parallel to the ground, without allowing your elbow to drop towards your hip. In other words, if landing your foot pointing at the plate is a 90 degree angle, land your foot pointing at a 75 degree angle. This will get your body into a power position. Your power position is the position where your legs are fully extended with your hips and arms still closed, ready to hurl your arm towards the plate. Pull forward with your front foot by pivoting from that 75 degree angle into a 90 degree angle. Ensure that you make this pivot before you swing open your upper body and pull your left arm towards first base. Pivoting early allows you to generate power with your hips, and create more of a whip action for your right arm. Your throwing elbow should be aligned with your shoulders (horizontally of course) through this step. The most common mistake pitchers make is to open their arms before their hips, which removes the power generated from their legs, causing pitchers to have less velocity, and increase the stress applied to their arms. Do not snap your wrist as this can cause injury. Your wrist should not guide the ball, but rather the ball guides your wrist. During your motion, it is beneficial to be aware of your wrist. As you move your arm from your sweet spot, your wrist should be pulled back, cocking the ball in your hand. Then, as you release the ball, the ball should glide off of your wrist, finishing with your wrist fully flexed. Extended your arm as far you can and allow your back leg to lift up from the forward momentum, and place it on the mound to get in a fielding position.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Select a Grand Prix difficulty mode. Pick your character. Get third place or better in the two retro cups. Know the points system.

Answer: Unlocking cups happens separately at each difficulty level. If you follow these instructions at 50cc difficulty level, you will unlock 50cc Leaf Cup. You will need to repeat them at 100cc and 150cc to unlock harder Leaf Cup modes. You can unlock Leaf Cup with any character and vehicle. The retro cups are the two cups on the lower row of the cup selection screen. You start out with two retro cups unlocked: Shell Cup and Banana Cup. Once you finish third place or better on both of these cups, Leaf Cup will unlock. Each cup has four tracks, which you race through in order. Your final standing is determined by how well you do in all four races. This means you can get fourth or fifth place on one or two tracks, and still succeed if you do very well on the others. You get 15 points for winning a track, 12 points for second place, 10 points for third, and 8 points for fourth. After that, the points go down by 1 for each position. You'll usually need roughly 40 points to get 3rd place.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: This is key. Talk to experts. Try a hands-on approach. Read up on the subject.

Answer:
It may seem self-evident, but knowledge is the key to writing a successful manual. For example, if you're writing a camera manual, knowing that an f-stop and the shutter speed are not just 2 separate functionsthey arebut knowing how they interact with each other will make it much easier for you to describe each function as it relates to the whole. If your role is simply the writer rather than the subject matter expert, involve knowledgeable people throughout the process and make sure they review your work. Their knowledge and advice is invaluable. If possible, doing the thing you are writing about will, at the very least, give you a feel for what the user will want to learn. Learn to talk the talk, and become conversant in the product you are writing about. Manuals of similar products will show you how other writers have tackled the subject. Look for similarities among the writers, which indicates both common functionality and common approaches to describing something. Look for differences that stand out. Those are likely to be functions that are unique to a given product. Your product may or may not include those functions, or may have alternate ways of solving the problem that you can describe, enhancing the value of your product. While your job may be writing a how-to, showing the customers the value of their purchase is a great way to encourage them to continue reading. Devour trade magazines. Find out how the people who use the products work with them day-to-day. They may wish there was a function that solved their particular problem, and if your product is the solution, that needs to be highlighted.
