Beauty & Style - 20 December 2006

I am just plain stupid when it comes to hair care products. I know what shampoo and conditioner is for, but mousse, gel? I have a general idea of what the products are used for, but, I've NEVER been able to get the desired effect.

I have LONG, wavy frizzy hair. I love it straight. It takes forever to straighten it with a flat iron so 99% of the time, I don't ever mess with it. It's thick and thin throughout. I have been condemned to the same damn bun at the back of my neck for YEARS now. I'm really sick of it, but I really don't know what else I can do with my hair. If I try to put it up in a high pony tail, it is nearly impossible to get it right where I don't have the hair bumps. I have so much hair that i don't need anything that volumizes. Anti-frizz products haven't helped. I tried mousse once to try to enjoy my waves and it was just a sticky mess. How are these products supposed to work? I want to make my hair work in my favor. Ugh...

Before i steam my face, should i wash it to get all the makeup off etc, then steam for 10 mins or so, then rinse, then put face mask on then rinse then moisturise?I do that now, just i dont know the order to do it all in. i mean its kind of common sense. When ive steamed my face, do i need to rinse or will putting the face mask on trap all the impurities?Do i need to rinse with cold water or warm to leave the pores open?just a little confused! little help please?... thanks

I'm going to a xmas party and can't decide what colour and type of underwear to go for. I'm wearing a gold colour strapless dress, which is just above the knee. The material is not very forgiving, and I'm concerned about having a vpl.I need to wear some support around my chest, as I've got quite big boobs. Also I don't know what colour underwear to wear. I'd be grateful for any ideas. Thanks

I have long hair. I am 5ft 10in tall and my hair is long enough that I can sit on it........
Problem is I'm getting tired of the upkeep, its a real witch to brush.
So here is the question.....Cut it or not? How short?....bald?
The only reason I keep it long is because of my hubby (who LOVES long hair) and my grown boys (they have memories of sleeping on mommies hair when they were little) and my youngest son is adament enough about the issue that he will help me brush it and he will trim it for me.....but I am just so tired of it.....

Your opinions please (pros, cons, comments.....all accepted)

I've tried on several bathing suit bras and all of the ones that tie or clip around the neck hurt my neck. I tried extending the strap to its capacity, but the weight of my bust pulls on the string and makes my neck hurt a lot. Are there any comfortable bathing suit bras out there which tie around the neck, or are those reserved for smaller chests only? I'm a D cup for reference - does this mean that I should only look for bathing suit bras with two standard straps instead of the ones that tie around the neck if I want to avoid discomfort?

Not tight waves. Just loose, carefree waves, like surfer waves. (I have long hair.)

I am an African American woman with short hair, i.e. Nia Long, and I miss my chin length hair. I want to grow it out, but when it gets to the "in between stage", those who have or had short hair, no what I am talking about, I give up hope and
chop it off. I need some tips on how to my hair styled while growing it out. And please, if you don't have an answer for my question, please spare me the sarcasm, stupid answers and what have you. Score your extra points on someone else's question. You know who you are.
