7 Things People With Thick Hair Can Understand

If you have thick hair you know that it can be a blessing and a curse. These things you can definitely relate to and if you have any friends that have thick hair share it with them!

1. Hair ties


Hair ties always seem to break no matter how strong the packaging says it is and there's always that sad moment when you only have one hair left and it breaks.

2. Hair everywhere

Somehow you shed all the time and hair ends up being everywhere. In the shower, on your pillow, even in your coffee cup. Even if your hair is in the tightest bun hair ends up being everywhere.

3. It takes forever to dry


Thick hair takes at least 3 hours to dry naturally so you basically have to use a hairdryer unless you want to wait for 3 hours and still have damp hair for the rest of the day.

4. Curling hair


Curling your hair also takes about 3 hours and then the curls don't stay for more than 2 hours and then you wonder why you even curled your hair in the first place.

5. Brushing hair and tangles


Basically your hair is always tangled and it hurts every time you try to brush your hair. You also can't comb your hair until after you've brushed it because you can't just comb your hair it just won't work.

6. Super hot in the summer


No matter where you live if you have thick hair you will be hotter than everyone else just because you have thick hair. You'll think about shaving it and then forget about it once you're in air conditioning.

7. Conditioner

There seems like there is never enough conditioner for your hair and you go through it so quickly you feel like you buy one every week.

If you can relate to these I feel you. Make sure to share to embrace thick hair!

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.
