It looks so pretty but it's a pain in the tail...

Once you color your hair, you get addicted. I mean, what color will my hair be next time? Blonde? Purple? Blue? Red? Black? Who knows? We love changing it up every now and then---it keeps things entertaining. However, with the beauty of the color comes with some struggles...

1. The first few washes almost make you cry when that color starts washing down the drain. Let's not even talk about the almost staining.


Dye. Everywhere.

2. You hear "Putting that in your hair damages it, your hair will never be the same again" way too much.

If my hair dresser says okay--- it's getting done. If I wanted my hair not to change, I wouldn't have dyed it in the first place.

3. And "I liked your natural hair color better."


It's not your hair so it doesn't matter. I wanted change so it changed.

4. That $75 to $300 payment every month and a half for touch ups or re- coloring is a price some people complain about.

It is already in our budget--- don't argue.

5. You have a collection of old towels for those first few washes too after learning your towels will never be the same after drying fresh done hair.


The dark colored towels that are only in my bathroom are there for a reason.

6. You also have a collection of different colored bobby pins and hair ties from having so many hair colors and trying to coordinate.

Blonde? Brown? Purple? Blue? I have them all.

7. We all have had a box dye no no.


Whether it be in middle school or college when we were too broke to go get it done and the blonde turned orange... we just don't bring that stage in our life up.

8. So. Many. Products.


Color-protecting shampoo, hairsprays, conditioners, serums, heat protectant, we need them all to help the hair stay longer.

9. Getting dye all on your head and struggling to get it off.


Our hair is colored now and so is our head for a few days, just don't look too hard.

10. You always have the nightmare of ruining your sheets because of the dye.


White sheets are a big no no after we get color so dark sheets will be on our bed when we get color. We don't want to throw good sheets out.

11. Roots.


Need I say more?

12. Dry hair is horrible.


The dye dries out your hair, and we will try our best to cover it up no matter how many products we need to find for helping our precious hair.

13. Eyebrows... Do they even match?


A dark haired girl's worse nightmare... black eyebrows with light colored hair.. ehhhh

14. Whats next?


We'll leave that one as a suprise

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.
