Here is a list of 11 companies you check out the next time you think about buying hair products:

1. Mielle Organics

Mile Organics first launched in 2014 with only an Advanced Hair Formula, which was a pill that was meant to help achieve healthy hair, skin and nails. Customers then began to demand more and the rest is history. The brand has been a hit on social media which has helped them to become a global enterprise. Oh, and their formula is all natural. Seriously, their products only include natural ingredients. How could you say no?

You've more than likely ran across them already, but why not send a reminder of how awesome this brand is?

3. Curls

Curls got its start in 2002, but has grown into a household name for most naturals. Curls is all about creating products to give the hair body with springy, spiral, defined and healthy curls.

The hair care line is plant-derived and also has a variety of products for all hair types. Knowing how harsh chemicals can be on the hair, this company strives to create a chemical free brand that gets the job done.

6. Mixed Chicks

Mixed Chicks is a brand created to be gentle and cleansing for the hair. With both of its founders coming from environments that were harsh on their hair, they wanted to create something that would be the perfect mixture. They began to mix and match ingredients until they got the perfect blend. Mixed Chicks isn't just for chicks though, they even have a line for men. This 'curly revolution' deserves a shot.

Your hair will thank you for these products.

8. Miss Jesse's

Miss Jesse's took on the curly hair market in 2004 and haven't looked back. During that time there was hardly anything designated for curly hair care on the market. Realizing the potential and demand, Miss Jesse's strived to make something that would be effective and fresh. They are well known for their rich creams and conditioners that treat hair to an abundance of moisture. Every natural girl needs some of their products in their stash.

The CurlBox is something that all naturals should give a shot. It is a monthly box that you subscribe to and receive a variety of products to try. Each month you get 4 or more hair product samples for only $20. Sounds like a steal, right? Trying out products for half the price, cant beat that.

11. EDEN Bodyworks

Crafted by an 11 year old who couldn't find products for her hair, EDEN Bodyworks is a must try. The products are infused with natural products to restore hair and return it to its natural state. EDEN products leave your hair feeling softer and healthier. You want regret introducing your hair to EDEN.

I hope that you'll think about these products the next time you come across them. They are meant for all types of hair to ensure that you maintain the most healthy hair ever.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
