11 Things Only Hairstylists Understand
Megan Nel

These problems only hairstylists will understand...


Stylist: "So how is your dog Wendy doing these days?"

Client: "I once had a fish named Fred... Is that what you are talking about?"

Stylist: "....Yes?"

2. "I want my hair to look voluminous, but without the volume."

Yes, and I want a unicorn to feed me strawberries while floating on a magical, sparkly lake....

3. Taking off gloves after coloring and realizing there was old color inside

Well, now my pretty pink manicure looks like mustard stains... fantastic!

4. Talking over a hairdryer

Just smile and nod, lets just hope she didn't just tell you her grandpa died last week.

5. Cutting a fidgety clients' hair

If you don't sit still now I will cut a piece of your hair and call it an 'accident'. Do I have your attention now?

6. "I cut my own hair"


Yes, we can tell...The worst part of this situation is when they think it actually looks good.

7.When the client refuses to believe a picture is Photoshoped

Stylist: "This picture is edited."

Client: "Yes, I want my hair to look like this."

Stylist: *sighs*

8. Trying to bring more color into your wardrobe


Everything you buy is black, or some variation on black. And if bleach lightens some part of our favorite shirt the black Sharpie will come out!

9. Doing our makeup and hair on an off day is a big nope!

Why do we want to go through all that trouble, we'll be hiding from the world anyway.

10. Seeing a client outside of the salon

Even when you did a great job on their hair, it is still a little awkward to say hello...

11. Removing all the little hairs stuck in your shirts and bras

How did it even get there? Needless to say, baby powder is our favorite thing. (Also a teasing brush, it works like magic)

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.
