PROS and CONS of long hair.



             If you came from my YouTube channel, Hi! Hope you enjoy my blog.(:
When I cut my hair really, really short back in 5th grade, I promised myself to NEVER cut it again. So I was determined to grow it out long and healthy. Four years later,I succeeded, but I ended up hating it so much I cut it again! Honestly I dreaded anything that had to do with taking care of it. And by that I mean brushing, washing, trimming, styling, etc. It literally took me a whole year to finally cut it! The weird thing is, I don't regret it at all! In fact I LOVE my short hair!

I decided to come up with a list of PROS and CONS of long hair to hopefully help you decide whether you'd like to chop your locks off, or grow them out! If you cut it, and then regret it, just remember that its just hair, and it will grow out!

PROS

You get to have fun with complicated hairstyles

Long hair will keep you warm

You lots of "ooo and ahhhs" because of how long it is.

It makes you look younger (sign of youth)

Easier to put up and out of your face

CONS

So much maintenance!

Uses lots of product

Lots of hair to de-tangle/ brush

It gets in the way of everyday things

Drying takes F.O.R.E.V.E.R.

Keep your mani on longer!


The worst thing ever is having your nail polish chip and come off like 2 days after you apply it. Here are some tips to keep your polish on longer than usual. Lets get to the tips !


1) Allow enough time for layers to dry.

 Sometimes I get really impatient and barely wait for my base coat to dry completely dry. Once I actually wait, the polish ACTUALLY stays.

2)Remember to apply a base coat, AND , a top coat.

This may seem like it doesn't matter, but it does. Applying doesn't just prevent your polish from chipping, it also prevents the polish from staining the nail

3) Stay away from alcohol/ sanitizes.

The chemicals in the sanitizes, cause the polish to over dry, and chip faster.

4)  Quality matters!

Choose you're polish wisely. Make sure it's not too thick and sticky or too thin and watery like.

5) Prep you're nails carefully! 

This means, file, trim, and  moisturize before applying your manicure.

REVIEW: wet n' wild mega plump DOUBLE THREAT mascara

         
              The tube has two  sides. One for the upper lashes and one for the lower lashes.





          This is one coat of Mega- plump mascara. It's very easy to apply, and not clumpy.


  This is two coats of the Mega-plump mascara. Did get a little clumpy, but not too much.

Over all, I would give this mascara a 7/8 out of 10 !

Book Chat | An abundance of Katherine's by John Green |


Hey! You know , I would honestly not be surprised if you completely forgot about me but I'm sorry I've been gone for so long. Today I want to start a new series on this blog called  "Book chats ." Basically whenever I read and finish a book , I will be reviewing it, and talking (or writing in this case ) about the basic and necessary information you would probably would want to know about the book. Today I will be reviewing a book called - "An abundance of Katherines "by John Green.
This would be the second book that I have read by John Green and to be honest I didn't really love it as much as I loved Paper Towns .The book is about a guy named Colin who basically ONLY  dates Katherines with a "K" .
He  is a child prodigy and really just wants to matter in this world.  They just graduated . Katherine number 19 breaks his heart and he becomes super depressed . His friend Hassan suggested that they go on a road trip and basically during this road trip he tries to come up with an equation or theorem to predict his future relationships and see what how they will end . 
Through out the book he goes through each and every Katherine and talks about their relationship and how it ended. 
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Out of 10, I would give this book 6 .

Why I didn't like it: 
   
- written in third person point of view . (I prefer 1st person point of view) 
-He kept talking about the same thing over and over and over.

Why I liked it: 

-funny 
- relativley an easy read 
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
That is it for this book review.  I hope you guys enjoyed it and found it helpfu! If you guys want me to do to do more of these I would love to continue this series! 
xoxo, Anna ∆
