two totally different things.
1.) i just started straightening my hair everyday, where can i get a good heat protection spray for cheap?
2.) a friend of mine (who is 14) just got her belly button pierced recently. now she's planning on, next weekend, getting her tongue and nose pierced and getting a tattoo right above her butt. (just so you can see it when she bends down, basically) to me this is repulsive. how can i tell her that without her getting all "woooo" about it?

i guess her mom isn't like all crazy about it but she's letting her do it anyways.

and honestly the reason i don;t lke it is because she's already kinda of known as being a hypocrtical slut (meaning she calls people sluts and whores and insists she's not one but she is)
and her family has a history of teen mothers and such.

I have naturally straight hair, & not much of it, so can't help you there. just an opinion. I like straight hair, but when anybody with it gets it curled, I usually like it better. And heat is ruinous for hair. (Why you think all mine migrated to my nose, ears, back arms, chest? Heat drove it away!
I'm an old fart way past the age of stupidity. Even I can see that in the near future, piercings & tattoo wearers will be a majority. And Why Not? At some time, all cultures have used them. Even I like a lot of the womens' tattoos. They're cool, especially the peekaboo kind. Whether they do or don't, it is none of my business. Even if my 14 year old grand daughter gets them, damn, it is still none of my business. How important is it? Enough to possibly lose a friend over? Didn't think so. Have fun & enjoy your youth. It gos away waaayyyyyyy tooooooo fast.
Coming back after your added comments. If you are her friend, I would also quit being judgmental about her. Her reputation may well be a reflection of her family, not her. A real friend will not judge her, & if she needs a lot of support later because you are right, a real friend will give it to her without the I Told You So's. And since she is also judgmental too, a good example from you may help her grow up some.
signed, regretting my judgmental past.

Tell you what you think about these things in general terms. Let her know that you don't find those things appealing and remind her that these things will be reflected when she goes to apply for jobs. If she has any desire for a professional type job after she graduates she may not make a good impression on her future employer with all of these added piercings and tattoo's.

Do her parents really allow all of this? If so, isn't that child endangerment? Tell your friend to get some self respect about the tattoo on the butt thing.

where are her parents? She must be getting a fair amount of $$ to be able to afford this, viz indirectly with her parents' approval. I feel it's up to her parents to advice her, if not, she'll have to live with a marked body/face for the rest of her life, it's her choice really if she's can't listen to you
