Question:

I am really bad at doing my hair and if I ask my mom to help me at all, she gets mad. I need some simple but cute hairstyles that I can start out with. Thanks. :]
Kendra, 14, UT


SIMPLY SWANSON

Dear Kendra,
Usually, having the right haircut makes all the difference in making it easier to do your hair each day. When you go get your hair cut, bring some pictures (from magazines, newspapers) of styles that you like and ask the hairstylist what she/he thinks would work best for your hair type and what would be easy to style every day. The type of hair you have (ex: thick or baby fine, curly, wavy, or pin straight) will make a difference and the right cut for you will work with your hair type, not fight against it. Ask your hairstylist to show you how to blow dry or style your hair and see if you can practice doing it while he/she is watching you, so they can correct anything you might be doing wrong. You can also ask your hairstylist for ideas on different ways to put it up, pin it back, or change it slightly (but easily) for those days when you just want to try something different. - Dr. Marion – Dr. Marion




JUST JULIETTE

Dear Kendra,
I remember feeling just like you. My hair is very curly so it was hard to keep it from getting puffy and big. What I did was try new things. I tried different conditioners to see what worked for me. You could do the same. Maybe what you use for your hair can make it easier to style. First you can start with easy hairstyles like I did, and pick which ones you like. I tried doing high and low ponytails, a single braid, and my hair just down. You can also try getting a haircut or using accessories such as bobby pins and hair bands. Try looking at some magazines for other hairstyles. - Juliette – Juliette

quick reminder
Everyone is different—what might work for someone else might not work for you. Dr. Swanson's and Juliette's ideas might give you a new way of looking at things but always talk with an adult you trust (parents, teacher, aunt/uncle) before making important decisions or if you have a serious problem.
