What to do with thick, straight, frizzy hair? Won’t hold curls very well?

frizzy straight hair


I have thick, straight, frizzy hair, and I’ve tried doing different things with it but nothing seems right… I have a couple waves, enough to make it look funny unless I straighten it.

I can’t hold a curl for more than 20 minutes, and I haven’t tried scrunching it, although I doubt that would work (and I don’t really get what to do about mousse or gel or whatever).

I don’t have any bangs, and it’s about 4 inches past shoulder length. Normally I put it up or wear it straight. Any suggestions?

Skin Whitening?

skin whitening


Hi everyone,

I am currently doing some skin whitening research and would like to know more about this skin whitening thing.

All I know now is that for the skin whitening topical cream to work, the cream must be able to inhibit or reduce the production of melanin. It is usually done so by using HQ which contains mercury that can induce unwanted effect.

I have also come across Kojic acid along with variations of vitamin C that helps in inhibiting the enzyme which is used for producing melanin.

Can anyone give me more insights on this topic and if possible tell me some of those tyrosinase inhibitor that is “mercury-free” if there are any. Thank you.

smile makeover


OK, so my credit sucks thanks to my ex husband who was killed in Iraq before he could resolve his portion of our debts. I make too much for ACHSS (the local state inusrance plan which only covers extracting a tooth anyway) and don’t make enough for private insurance. About a year ago I was pregnant and it was high risk and was off work for quite a while until after I lost my son, and am still paycheck to paycheck to catch up. My teeth are in bad bad shape, I have one at the moment that needs either a root canal or extraction and have had many many extractions in the back teeth already. I really could use a little help to feel human again.
I took care of my portion of our debts long before he died, he did not see it as a priority.
Due to the fact someone sugessted that saying anything about my ex husband debt situation, it may be disrespectful to bring him up but I am still paying monthly on a bill for over 10000 in debt that was wracked up on a joint credit card that he used for a vacation and jewelry for his mistress.

acne scars


I have asian skin, and recently i started getting acne.
Now I have like a huge black discolouration of my skin right under my lip, i just went to the doctor today to see what i can do about it, she told me that there is no guarantee if it will go away coz its a acne scar, but because i still have acne she gave me some tablets, coz the solutions that she has given me earlier really don’t work on me. But i want to get rid of the acne scars I have. I have mild acne, and i cant really seperate it into those types they have, coz it looks nothing like that, it’s just the discolouration. But i still want to get rid of it. Anyone know any tips? I also want to how how good it works.
OIL? that’s the last thing i had in mind, my acne areas are full of oil that im trying to get rid of all the time!
