3 Things You Can Relate To If Your Parent Is A Hairdresser

“Honey fix your hair!” is probably something you hear all the time if one of your parents is a hairdresser. You have probably had your hair pulled or an accidental burn to the ear from a curling iron so many times that anything done to your hair can never hurt again. There are many reasons why having a parent as a hairdresser is incredible and then there are reasons why it is extremely annoying. Here are three things you can relate to if one of your parents is a hairdresser:

1. It’s nothing new

Unless your parent is new to the hairdressing game, then you have probably had your hair done by them for as long as you can remember. For every function you went to growing up, your hair was perfectly done with not one piece out of place. You would sit there for however long it would take until they were done. It becomes a custom, yet it’s something you still get annoyed about every time they mentioned doing your hair. No matter how well they do your hair, you are now just sick of it because of all the years they have done it.

2. Taking pictures is impossible

Picture this: you are about to take the cutest picture ever with your friend when, in an instant, you are interrupted by a “WAIT, I need to fix your hair!” Your hair could have looked perfectly fine, but to your parent, it wasn't at all. After three minutes of fixing it, and another two minutes checking everything, you are able to finally take a picture.

3. Any hairstyle, anytime.

As annoying as having a parent as a hairdresser can be, there are some positives to it. When you just want something new or need your hair done for an event, there is no need to make an appointment. Your hair will always look good and you trust them to not make any mistakes with it. Also, don't forget all of the money you are saving because they love you!

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.
