pinkdottedbow's Advice

  • How do I get my parents to say yes?
    Make time to get a job and buy your own car if you want it so much. If you were really mature enough to start driving, you wouldn't be begging your mommy and daddy to buy you something. Keep in mind that cars aren't just handed to you when you tu...

  • My mum need a fashion fix. (100.00%)
    Maybe she feels comfortable wearing baggy clothes Stop trying to make your /mother/ dress like a slutty teen.

  • is A'nyliah a good name for a baby girl?
    I'd leave off the apostrophe. Parents should take into account how a kid's name would be taken in by peers when they're naming their kids.

  • Inspired Sister to Get Pregnant!
    I agree with anonymous115. Your irresponsible acts ruined both your and your sister's life.

  • Chapped lips
    Use Vaseline/Aquaphor.

  • how does a bikini wax actually work?
    A basic idea: First, the area is cleaned. Then warm wax is applied on the area with a strip on top and ripped off. Finally, a soothing cream should be applied. It will hurt quite a bit, and you shouldn't get it done at only 14.

  • does getting your hair permanetly strait ruin your hair?
    It's not actually permanent (it only lasts a few months), it costs quite a bit, and it /does/ damage your hair a bit, regardless of the treatment (though since you straighten your hair every day, which is exactly what you're /not/ supposed to do, your ...

  • Chest hair
    Though guys spend so much of their adolescent lives hoping and praying for this first face/chest hair, the grand majority of girls can't stand to be with a Neanderthal.

  • How do I convince her?
    You're only 13, and this is just a phase. Dyed black hair and facial piercings do look absolutely /ridiculous/. And don't say that this is the opinion of someone that wants everyone to fit a certain stereotype, because this is not true. Wait unti...

  • Is my dad trying to hurt me or even kill me?
    I think you need therapy, if you carry around a bat at all times and are paranoid about someone taking it.

  • Good hair straightener?
    Belson and Chi are some of the best ones I've tried. I'd recommend Belson, because it costs much less, and is very effective.

  • Ladies legs
    You don't want your legs to be too muscular, but toned legs are the best legs.

  • stomach hair?! :$
    Pretty much everyone has it. Don't shave, it will come back looking disgusting. I'd say wax, use Nair if you can put up with it, or save up for laser treatments. :-P

  • Getting rid of acne
    See a dermatologist. Use the prescribed medication and products as directed. It's true, once you stop using it, your face will break out again.

  • Why do they face outwards?
    That's how they're supposed to be. It sounds like you think women don't use push-up bras, and that they're just naturally large and squished together.

  • Oily skin and acne. Please help!!
    Unfortunately,the only way to control it is by seeing a dermatologist regularly. Just remember that this is a /medical/ condition, not a /cosmetic/ condition.

  • Tongue piercings are they slutty?
    They're not slutty, they're disgusting. And they're most common among bi/lesbian girls. Ew.

  • Alcohol on legs after shaving?
    Of course not. You'd have to be completely gullible to believe that. sweetbeth1, when women reach a certain age, their hair becomes much less noticeable, and sometimes nearly non-existent.

  • convincing mom to let me dye my hair ?
    Some parents simply will not allow it until you move out. It damages your hair, it costs a bit of money, you may be too young, etc. If you're still young enough to be living with your parents, then I don't think you need to be going off dying you...

  • is it possible?
    If it was just a blow-out or she used a straightener, then a shower will get your hair back to normal. If it was a "permanent" procedure, then it will only last a couple of months. These things are obviously /not/ for life.

  • I think I just got my like fulll hips
    That means that you are slightly pear-shaped. Everyone has a different body shape - not everyone has an hour-glass figure. Nothing to starve yourself over, basically, as long as you stay healthy.

  • Brazilian? (100.00%)
    Some guys do like it, some guys don't have a personal preference, and some prefer if you'd just keep it trimmed. Not everyone shaves it, because it becomes very red, bumpy, and itchy. Waxing already hurts - waxing that area hurts insanely more. F...

  • Parental Problems
    Then don't do any of it - if your parents are going to be annoying about some things, then don't do anything /at all/ just to piss them off.

  • Birthcontrol and mothers
    That's insane - you actually are /way/ too young. You might as well be a hooker when you're older. It's true - if your mom is responsible /at all/, she won't give you any - that's just giving your little 14-year-old the license to have sex.

  • The best way to deal with being disowned for marrying a non-muslim
    You're 28, try talking to them, but don't give yourself a hard time for the rest of your life.

  • Is it what I think it is?
    So they're friends. In many /normal/ cultures unlike the US's and others where invading anyone's personal space is a crime, it is a custom to hug/give a kiss on the cheek to anyone you're meeting - whether you're meeting them for the first time or sayi...

  • Im 17 and pregnant and dont know how to tell my dad
    You deserve it, you are /way/ too young. Just tell him.

  • My family hates my boyfriend!!!
    Too bad. Just dump him.

  • Would fishnets...
    Never wear fishnets. Unless you're planning on waiting your whole night at a street corner.

  • Shaving ..?
    Easy answer: don't.

  • Im 18 and told parents about pregnancy!
    I can see where they're coming from. You are a bit young.

  • How could I get rid of my blackheads fast
    What works for me that I don't know if it will work with everyone is to keep your whole face moisturized during the day and applying a bit of face lotion on /only/ that area at night. After that, a good scrub in the morning will leave your skin looking...

  • How do you feel about piercings and tattoos?
    When it gets excessive and you have tattoos and piercings covering your arms, whole body, etc., then it's just disgusting and hideous. But there is nothing wrong with a couple of small tattoos and 1-2 ear piercings.

  • How can I get rid of nose blackheads?
    Blend a moisturizing non-scrub facial cleanser and brown sugar together, then transfer the blend to your face. Wet a gentle washcloth with warm water, and gently scrub.

  • What do you think about the photoshop war?
    I enjoy Photoshopping some photos when I have the time. It really does help a photo. But I believe that airbrushed photos should have an actual label on them that states that they were digitally airbrushed in some way. It's not fair for some people ...

  • I want a baby , mature responses please
    This is so stupid. You shouldn't have had sex at such a young age. And you shouldn't have any children until you're married and out of college. Don't screw up your life, as well as your family's and potential child's life, by wanting to have c...

  • Confused???!!
    Your child is very lucky to have such a kind, supportive parent. I'd give her many more restrictions if she went out and got herself pregnant at 14, though.

  • How can I convince my mom
    You are a bit heavy, and I'd consult a doctor. But your mom shouldn't be preying on your insecurities.

  • Am I fat or is my dad just being messed??
    Your dad is being a jerk. Your height/weight is normal.

  • hi my name is steph and I could do with some help
    You can't control that, unless you get plastic surgery, which is completely wrong.

  • how can you tell your parents that you want the pill??
    15-year-olds shouldn't be doing it /at all/. What, are you training to be a prostitute? Not to be offensive, but it's the truth. No responsible parent would give their underage /child/ birth control.

  • Belly buttun
    Don't do anything. They /will/ notice, and it's obvious that you're just desperate to pierce anything just to rebel.

  • How to ask my mom for a bra?
    Training bras do nothing. Wait until you're large enough to use a real one. And you will grow at your own pace.

  • Parent issues.
    People need to understand exactly why teenagers are always so unhappy with their parents. Parents need to let their teenagers be sometimes, and stop starting fights. It's not necessarily about teenagers being that way "because of hormones".

  • Unwanted body hair
    Only shave your legs, toes, and underarms. You're 13, there is no reason for you to be removing any other hair or "doing" anything else.

  • My skin
    Pale skin looks worse.

  • Hair (:
    She probably doesn't want to spend /any/ money on something as stupid, vain, and unnecessary as dying your hair. We're going through a recession, you should be more understanding by now.

  • Confessions of a Hollister gal
    Wow, you sound so convincing. Not.

  • How to become fat
    You'd look worse fat. Just eat healthy foods, get enough sleep, and get the right amount of exercise.

  • Am I a Lesbian???
    If you are attracted to girls, then you are either bisexual or a lesbian. If you would just like to experiment, then you are bicurious.
