PLEASE HELP!!! First day of high school(this kind of a long ?)

Question

Okay!So I'm gonna be a freshman this year I need advice clothes, hair, make up, anything you can give me! Hair: my hair is light brown with natural bleach blonde and strawberry blonde highlights. Its layered it comes to almost the middle of my back and its naturally wavy!!! But I switch on and off usually between wavy and straight. but to be honest i get pretty tired of it sometimes.Thats my hair any tips or new ideas would be great oh and i refuse to cut it any shorter than shoulder length. Make up:Im addicted to lip gloss I reapply it once every hour from 6am to 10:30pm thats curfew for me sooo...ya know no point to lip gloss any more I wear mostly pink or clear lip gloss my eyes are a medium color blue but sometimes they are grayish they change colors alot I dont even know what to do for eye make up but i dont wear brown or black eyeliner it doesnt look real good on me.I have pretty fair skin so... blush?i dont know havent really worn it any ideas or tips?Clothes: if you make me an outfit that would be great or @ least give me store or web site ideas. FYI I am not big on ae a&f Hollister I'd rather wear a style not everyone wears And I go to a school wear everyone makes snap judgments by what you look like and what clothes you wear but I will shop @ those few stores once in a great while.I just bought a brand new dooney and bourke so i dont need a purse for awhile.

So if there is any tips, ideas, comments, things to change before i get to my shopping day for school i would really appreciate it oh and any one who can give me a list of outfit must haves I would really appreciate it!!!

Oh and I would really rather not spend alot on anything i mean Im not willing to pay 70 dollars for a pair of jeans because I have 3 little sisters who all need clothes to and I just honestly think spending that much on denim is stupid I mean I go school shopping 4 times every school year plus regular shopping trips so Im not gonna srend alot of money on something I wont even be wearing by the time new years gets here! So dont tell me somewhere that will blow all my money and my mom and dads money on 3 out fits.

Answer 1

OK, first of all relax. School is gonna be fun and just be your self. OK dont stress over it. Cause its gonna make matters worst.I agree with you on cloths, wear whatever you like. If its looks go to you thats good, your opinion matters most. In my school we wear unifriorms so i dont have exaclty know about the stress on cloths so.  Also dont compare your self to your sis and cuz, your different and unique in your own way. i agree with you on the let pple see you and not makeup. High school is gonna be fun and just relax and everything will fall into place.

Ok first. Calm down! I am going to be a freshman this year too and I'm in the same situation as you. But you don't need to freak over this stuff. Worry about something else, like acing classes. But anyways, I always go to GOODY'S for school shopping. They have really good deals which is good for my mom and they have really cute clothes. They have extremely good deals on jeans! Hope i helped!

Answer 5

Sweetheart, I am twenty-seven years old, and I have some advice for you about fashion:

Fashion is evil.  Hear me out!

You've probably heard people talk about how fashion magazines create artificial standards of beauty that no one can live up to.  But then these same people who talk about it will try to be fashionable!  It's like saying that you support the environment and then going and cutting down a bunch of old-growth forest!

You've probably heard about anorexia and bulemia, and been told how horrible these conditions are, and that you should never call anyone fat, and how you shouldn't worry about your weight as long as you exercise and eat right.  But even with all the educational commercials about anorexia, there are still commercials the next moment that include skinny, scantily-clad women with tons of product in thier hair and on thier faces.  Isn't that just a LITTLE bit of a mixed message?

The fact is; fashion kills people.  And it doesn't even make you more attractive.  From my twenty-seven years of experience, I can tell you that health is more attractive than any amount of fashion, and that an 'ugly' woman (by fashion's standards) with a confident personality will win the best guy in the room.

Makeup is bad for the skin.  There is nothing more hideous than pimples with coverup on them.

Hairstyling makes hair gross to touch.  Why spend so much time and money on something that won't last, and that won't feel good?

Tight jeans are bad for you.  If you wear hip-huggers for a few years, especially as you are going through high school, you will develope permanent indentations at your hips that will make it look like you have rolls even when you have no clothes on.  The fat that is on your hips is the natural fat that every woman is supposed to have.  If you wear hip-huggers, you have to tighten the belt so that you have fat pouring over the tops of the jeans, and it makes you think that you're fat.  You're not fat just because you have those bulges when you wear hip-huggers.  The fact is that that fat is part of your womanhood, and wearing those jeans is unhealthy.

So my advice to you, dear child, on your way to adulthood, is to forget about fashion and work on making yourself a good person.  If you are funny and kind and you make friends and keep them, no one will care if you are dressed in rags (just keep 'em clean), weigh 200 pounds (just make sure you can keep up), and have missing teeth (just make sure you lost them skydiving, not forgetting to brush).

If you make yourself look like those magazine women, you are making everyone else in the world look uglier.  You are encouraging anorexia and unhealthy tight clothes and low self-esteem, etc.  If you try to make yourself look like a model, you are part of the problem, and you are making the world a worse place to live.

And if you forget everything else, remember this: if you can only make friends or attract men because you look like a magazine, your friends are not worth the paper they are printed on.  In other words; people who will not love an ugly girl because they don't want to get to know her ARE WORTH NOTHING TO YOU!

*Edit*  If you want people to see you and not your makeup, you have to MAKE them see you.  You have to walk up with a big smile on your face and tell them, "This is what I am about."  No matter what clothes you wear, confidence is what will tell people to treat you with respect.  You have to let everyone know that what's in your heart and head is much more important than your body.

You CAN do it.  You can make your entire family feel ashamed for treating you that way.  When they say something mean, look them straight in the eye and TELL them that what they said was mean and wrong, and tell them that they are setting a bad example for you.  Tell them that you have decided to set a better example for the whole world, so that women can walk the Earth FREE of slavery to artificial standards of beauty, FREE of distractions from the True world of beauty that is the human soul.

Answer 7

Hey(:

im going into high school also in August 18.

now lets go through each one step by step.

Hair:

theres no need to cut your hair, instead with that fabulous hair color of yours compared to my black, get some side swept bangs. or layers

maybe get a really good iron that also curls and gives waves i reccomend the SEDU or the CHI.

just put a matching headband and your good.

Makeup:

omg i loooove lip gloss also ! lol. like every switching of class, every lunch, everything i HAVE to put it on my lips feel naked . and if i dont put it on like 2 days my lips start hurting . ouch.. ok your just like me i refuse to put on any red or brown lip gloss light pink is for me. :)

but try changing the shade or brand, dont always have the same lip gloss, like have 10 lip glosses and take a diffrent one every day, dont put on blush sometimes people overdo it. just put a slight amount of bronzer, your lip gloss and mascara .youll look gorgous and guys love it when girls look natural.

Clothes:

lucky for me i have uniform lol.

but since i dont precisely know your style here are some diffrent styles.

make sure you dont try too hard cuz then thatll lead to teasing and people hating you,

forever 21,agaci,and wet steal are good places to shop for less.

and there jeans dont cost like 70$ more like 15-30.

Theyre also VERY fashionable possibly more than a&e and hollister.

and as for your cousins and sister, im VERY sorry to hear about that, but use that as a motivation join more clubs do really well in school have alot of friends be friends with teachers behave good, follow curfew dont be a bad girl because your setting up for disaster of course being TOO good is boring and you can be rebellious but not over the top, just be yourself there are probably tons of things you have your sisters /cousins dont have that they dont wanna admit.

youll do great have fun and good luck !

XOXO
