The Power Of The Hair Flip
Emi Peterson

Women are majestic creatures. We are also complex creatures, but so are men, if we’re being honest. Our actions are often why we are perceived as complex, because not everyone knows how to take them. Again, if we’re being honest, that’s their problem, not ours. To shed light on one action and try to help people understand, I’m going to help you decode hair flips. There are good ones, there are bad ones, there are sassy ones, and all the ones in between. They are a powerful weapon in a woman’s arsenal of majestic-ness. Hair flips can mean many different things and be deciphered in many different ways. They range from light and cute, to classy and sassy, or just plain ratchet. However, you have to know what you’re working with, so the key is to make sure you are using and reading them correctly. So, to know what you're dealing with, here is your guide to using and decoding hair flips successfully. Below are what I believe to be the 12 main types of hair flips. Use them wisely.

1. Cute

The light, happy-go-lucky, go-to hair flip for casually thing to be cute.

2. Classy

When no one is on your level. Werk, it girl.

3. I'm Feeling Myself

I know I look good.

4. Fun

Did someone say party?

5. Sassy

I do what I want.


6. Flirty

Take a hint already.

7. You're in Big Trouble


Did you really just do that?

8. Fierce

I am a majestic unicorn of fierceness and no one can touch me.

9. Serious

It's about to get real.

10. Show No Weakness

My turf, my rules.

11. I'm Trying to Keep it Together


I almost cried, but don't worry I flipped away the tears.

12. You're Wasting My Time

Like, can you move on already?

13. I Don't Give a Finna

Speaks for itself. Personal fav.

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.

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.
