10 Things That Happen When Your Hair Has A Mind Of Its Own

You have thick hair? Good luck. You have kinky/curly hair? Good luck. You have naturally frizzy hair? Good luck. You have thick, curly, frizzy hair? Hats are in aisle 3; Clippers in aisle 9. Take your pick. If you live with hair that falls into any of these categories, you know there's no way to explain what its like, but chances are your relationship with your hair sound something like this...

1. You debate shaving your head at least once a week.

You're drooling at the thought of not having to spend 3 hours on your hair everyday, but then flashes of Britney in 2007 put you back in your place.

2. You're not a stranger to the occasional broken hairbrush.

All of your friends were laughing when the brush broke off in Mia Thermopolis's hair and you're thinking "I feel you, girl"

3. You hear "people would pay a lot of money for your hair" at least 3 times a year.

Who? What's their phone number? Can they pay me in cash?

4. You try to warn your hair dresser, but they still insist on saying "wow, you have some crazy hair."

Yeah, I'm aware. Now break out the detangler, relaxer, and thinning scissors and let's get the show on the road

5. The only thing you fear more than the 'Stranger Things' Demogorgon is humidity.

At least the goo you would be covered in while running through 'the upside down' would act as gel to tame our locks.

6. You're thankful every time an up-do is the next big trend.

The only thing easier than a hat is an up-do. The ultimate win is being able to rock an up-do in a hat. #ThankfulForBaseballHats

7. "Use a quarters size amount of conditioner" is always at the top of your funny joke list.

The only quarter amount I can use is a quarter of the bottle.

8. You block out any attempted compliment from your thin and straight, aka 'normal', haired friends.

We know you're trying to be nice, but it's like being only 'a little' punched in the face.

9. You question your sanity when you realize you've been verbally disciplining your hair like an animal.

Sit! Stay! GOOD BOYYY!

10. You're an expert when it comes to recommending hair products because, chances are, you've tried 'em all.

That shampoo smells like Pez candy. These hair ties are least likely to snap. Only use that hairspray if you don't plan on having anyone touch your hair for the next 17 days because it'll be as hard as a rock.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
