Sometimes, we get to a point where we get bored with our appearance and want to switch things up, so impulsive decisions start to take over. But it's important to contemplate new hairstyles or hair colors before getting them in order to find the perfect look without doubts or regrets. Trying something new once in a while is a great experience, so if you have had the same hairstyle for too long or simply want to try something different, here is the perfect hair inspiration for you.

1. Bangs.

If you are looking for a fun way to change up your look, bangs are the perfect cut. Bangs are a versatile style, ranging from fringe to blunt, which gives you the opportunity to pick a look best suited for your face and personality. Bangs are a bold move if you've never had them before due to the maintenance and styling that they require, so make sure you are fully committed to a new form of styling before making the chop. Getting bangs will further accentuate your facial features as well as give you a unique feature to flaunt.

2. The Lob.

The long bob is coming back, with many models and celebrities making the big chop. If you have thought about going short but never did because you were scared, this is your time to finally take the plunge. The short, elegant and smooth look of a lob is perfect for those who want to look more mature. Having shorter hair also means using less product, which can save you money and time in the long run. Be sure to think over your decision for a week so that when the time comes, you are fully invested in the short cut without any doubts.

3. Layers.

If you have had a blunt haircut for a long time and want to make a small change to the dimension of your hair, getting layers is the perfect option. With layers, you are able to customize the volume and style of your hair with differing lengths. Layers give you the option to keep your length while adding a contouring element to your styling. If you want to try out a new look but don't want to lose any length, customizable layers are a perfect way to add volume, different styles and another dimension to your face and appearance.

4. Going lighter.

Although lightening your hair requires bleach and chemicals, aiming for highlights or a balayage look for your first session will help keep your hair healthier and intact. It is important to consider your natural hair tone in order to find a lighter shade that has a decreased chance of fading between washes. Lightening your hair is a big commitment due to the products, masks, and maintenance it requires. If you are contemplating a lighter look, make sure to research the best products to maintain the health and shine of your hair prior to making an appointment.

5. Going darker.

Going darker is an easy and low-maintenance way to transform your appearance due to the single coating of dye that is required for long-lasting results. Be sure to think about the color and hue that best matches your desired outcome, considering that the initial shade will fade with time. With fall upon us, going dark is the perfect way to achieve a bolder and more defined look while maintaining the health of your hair.

Changing your hair is, in a sense, like altering your identity. It can be freeing, satisfying and it can boost your confidence. But it's important to consider your decision until you are fully committed to embracing a new look and the maintenance that comes with it. Getting a new haircut or changing your hair color is an eye-catching and lively experience that every woman should try at least once!

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.
