Instead of jumping straight to drying it out straight, start by using the dryer without a brush to get your hair about 80 percent dry. Hold the hair dryer several inches from your head and dry your hair all over, using your other hand to comb through your hair and tousle it to help all the layers dry evenly. Stop when your hair is still damp, but no longer wet. Rough drying protects your hair from getting too damaged by your hairbrush and dryer. If you go straight to using the brush, it will take twice as many passes to get each section of hair straight. It's better to get most of the way there without a brush. Make sure to point the dryer so the air is blowing down the shaft of your hair from roots to tips, not up it. Aiming the blow dryer this way will help to keep the cuticle closed and create a smoother look.

When you smile, you immediately appear friendlier, more likable, and more trustworthy to other people. Smiling can also improve your mood and help you stay in a positive frame of mind, both of which will improve your interactions with others. Don't try to smile all the time that will look unnatural. Focus on smiling when you greet people and during conversations. . Sometimes you may need a little extra coaching to help with developing improved interpersonal communication skills. For instance people with mental health concerns such as social anxiety, borderline personality disorder, and others may require the assistance of a professional therapist or coach to help them effectively interact and develop stronger relationships. How you communicate with other people has a significant impact on the quality of your relationships. Professional support can be in the form of individual counseling or group counseling. The type of therapy usually used in such settings is dialectical behavioral therapy (talk therapy) and mindfulness training. The goal is to teach clients skills that will help with engaging in conversations in a more thoughtful and deliberate way, instead of reacting to their internal stress and emotions in a negative way. Be interested in other people, and focus on what they have to say. Take their body language and tone of voice into account as you talk. Ask questions to guide the conversation and find out more about them. When you're genuinely interested in people, you'll have more fulfilling conversations, and others will instinctively like you more. Follow the standards of etiquette, and always treat other people with courtesy. Don't forget the basics, such as saying "please" and "thank you" and not interrupting people when they're talking. If your manners need some polishing, look for an etiquette book at your local library, or search for manners tips online. Gossiping about other people makes you seem petty and insecure. It undermines other people's trust in you, and it could even cost you important relationships. Don't say anything behind a person's back unless you would be willing to say it to their face. If other people try to get you to gossip with them, redirect the conversation. Ask a question like, "What are you doing this weekend?" Whenever you can, go out of your way to do someone a favor or brighten up their day. You'll feel good about lending a hand, and other people will see you as a thoughtful, dependable person. For instance, take a friend out for lunch when they're feeling down, or give your coworker a ride to work when their car is in the shop.

This means getting the entire school -- teachers, administrators, and the students -- to agree to make your school a bully-free zone. Even those indirectly involved in the school, such as bus drivers, need to support and receive training on anti-bullying measures. It takes more than an assembly or a bunch of signs pronouncing a bully-free zone to truly create a bully-free environment for students. Change how kids think about other kids. For example, creating an anti-bullying program may involve creating lesson plans whereby children learn more about other kids, especially those who come from different backgrounds, ethnicities, and cultures, or different learning styles or abilities. Or, teachers might teach cooperation by assigning group projects, which help students learn how to compromise and assert themselves without being too demanding. Rules about bullying and its consequences should be discussed and posted publicly in the school, sent home to parents, and put in community newspapers to create a universal awareness of the issue. This will begin the process of large-scale transformation. Most bullying in schools occurs in areas that have less supervision by adults, like school buses, cafeterias, restrooms, hallways, and locker rooms. Schools need to address these areas by enhancing the monitoring of these spaces by additional adults or using enhanced security techniques including closed circuit cameras. Schools can also establish anonymous reporting tools like suggestion boxes or hotlines where students can send text messages or leave voicemails.
