Its shoulder length when straightened so its not long enough curly for me to do one braid and leave it at that :/<br /> I tried wearing my hair out without straightening but it doesn't stay down and when I actually had a style I liked my friends said it didn't look good and I should go back to straightening. </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/spring-fashion-1#post-1517 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 13:59:50 +0000 Mad_Miller20 1517@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>What are your favorite Spring fashion trends? </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/spring-shopping-on-a-budget-where-are-you-shopping#post-790 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 20:59:00 +0000 jc63 790@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>I'm ready to re-vamp my wardrobe for Spring/Summer, and I'm looking for affordable deals and adorable clothes!

For your hair, for your face, for your body. The list goes on and on. I haven't tried everything, but boy have I tried ALOT! Out of everything I've tried, these are the products I've found work the best and are absolute NEEDS when it comes to school and school preperation (really just everyday life!!):</p> <p>FOR HAIR:<br /> 1. TRESemme Heat Tamer Spray- Apply before both blow-drying and applying direct heat (curling iron, straightener, waver, etc.) to hair to minimize heat damage. Makes hair feel softer and healthier all around!<br /> 2. ANY KIND of Detangler Spray- Apply preferably to wet hair before brushing/combing. Gives hair softer feeling regardless if your hair is actually that full of tangles. Plus, most come in scents that smell good!<br /> ***Not a must-have, but the Bedhead Wave Artist is an awesome hair waver! They are pretty cheap at Walmart and give very cute results. If you're looking for a way to switch up your hairstyle, this product is PERFECT!</p> <p>FOR THE FACE:<br /> --- Disclaimer: most of these products will be for acne prone skin, although I'm sure they would work just as well for skin that is not.<br /> 1. Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit Scrub- Apply to face in the morning and night. Not only does it smell good, but it also works to cleanse, revive, and protect. I've found scrubs work the best at actually getting to your pores and removing the dirt rather than "liquid" washes. Oil-Free quality is also a must with acne.<br /> 2. Mary Kay Blemish Control Toner- Apply after washing your face once per day. The toner contains 2% salicylic acid for medicated acne treatment. Reduces pore size and fights acne. (it's directed to only use once per day because it can be drying)<br /> 3. Velocity Lightweight Moisturizer by Mary Kay- Apply twice-a-day after washing your face. Very light so it doesn't clog pores, but keeps skin hydrated.</p> <p>For at-school face issues:<br /> ***Don't forget your powder! An oily face can creep up on you at any time, and it is not attractive!!</p> <p>FOR THE BODY:<br /> --- I'm not very big on body stuff. A good lotion and body wash is good enough for me. However, shaving is very important to me!<br /> 1. Schick Intuition Plus "Razor"- This product comes with a built in bar of soap around the razor so no shaving cream is needed. Available relatively cheap at any grocery or drugstore. *TIP: When using this razor, it is best to store out of the shower. I've found it "melts" the soap faster if kept in the shower while not in use.</p> <p>Hope you find that these products work well, also! I'll definitely being using all of these as I prepare to go back to school this week. I'm not super excited about it, but with all of these products, I'll definitely be ready in the beauty aspect!<br /> Enjoy YOUR school year and take care of yourself!! </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/spring-fashion#post-1516 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 13:57:37 +0000 Mad_Miller20 1516@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>What are your favorite fashion trend for this spring? </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/guys-fashion#post-1508 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 18:38:41 +0000 pebblesja 1508@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>What style do you prefer in a guy? </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/are-you-pro-or-anti-fur#post-622 Mon, 23 Aug 2010 22:05:27 +0000 admin 622@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>Based on a recent commentor who was appalled that I even have images of anything that even resembles fur on the site, I wanted to know how you girls feel:</p> <p>Do you wear fur?

I'm going to UMass in the fall and I really have no idea what to expect and I'm really nervous! I hear it's going to be a lot of fun, but to be honest, I'm completely dreading it! I have never really been away from home, and I'm really worried I can't do it. Did anyone else feel like this?? Am I the only one??? </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/women%e2%80%99s-clothing-how-to-dress-for-college#post-633 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 05:34:57 +0000 JudithMcfadden 633@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>They said that this is the most exciting part of your life when you graduate from high school, and you are off to college. This is the point of your existence where you are going to make new friends and to choose your career in life. </p> <p>It is also the time where you have got to get rid of your high school clothing style, put on a new trendy and a more <a href="http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070813153243AAypky9">mature outfit</a> for college. So of course on your first day of class you would want to look nice and presentable. Since you are going back to school this fall you can go on wearing outfits that are in style and make a lot of heads turn as you strut along the alleys of your school.</p> <p>College is a place where you don’t have to wear any particular uniforms so you can totally fashion out here. So we will be following the fall colors which will consist of purples, olive green, camel colors, reds, and grays. Let us go ahead and choose several outfits and start mixing and matching them. I suggest you also buy dresses and garments that have these colors. So purchase a lot of crimson, plums, tans or camel colored outfits. </p> <p>Here are several looks that you can choose on:</p> <p><strong>Look no 1:</strong></p> <p>This is more of like a casual look: Have on a <a href="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:40p_LkMioGF-JM:<a href="http://www.couturecandy.com/store/assets/fashionchateau/royalplush/RYP0258-fnt.jpg&#038;t=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.couturecandy.com/store/assets/fashionchateau/royalplush/RYP0258-fnt.jpg&#038;t=1</a>">gray tank top</a> and pair it with black skinny jeans. For your footwear, you can put on flat gray boots and carry a gray or silver toned bag with you to amp your attire.</p> <p><strong>Look no. 2:</strong> </p> <p>Put on a gray v-neck shirt with a black and white strip design, and over it have on a black open cardigan. You can also use a red jacket over this look. For your bottom wear, have on your blue jeans and for your foot wear put on black pumps. To complete this look carry a black leather bag with you.</p> <p><strong>Look no. 3:</strong> </p> <p>This is what I call the purple power look: Have on a dark purple ruffled tank top and put on white pants for your bottom wear. For your footwear show off in a plum colored pumps and carry with you a glittering violet bag.</p> <p><strong>Look no. 4:</strong></p> <p>This outfit is going to be a combination of wearing a purple colored shirt and a magenta skirt. Tuck in your top inside your skirt and then put on a black big belt on your waist. Wear knee high socks and for your footwear put on a sleek black ankle boots.</p> <p><strong>Look no. 5:</strong> </p> <p>This look is called Mean Green. Have on a green tank top and wear a military jacket over it. You can wear green pants with lots of pockets on the side just remember to fold up the edges until it reaches your knee to give your attire more coolness to it. Put on a green olive toned tennis shoes or converse.</p> <p><strong>Bonus:</strong> Net-a-Porter is a site where you can choose on a lot of <a href="http://www.zeleb.co.uk/">women’s clothing</a> lines that sell high-end fashion items that you can use for your college attire. </p> http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/topic/tinted-moisturizer#post-619 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 11:35:48 +0000 Sari 619@http://community.everycollegegirl.com/forum/ <p>I've been looking around for a tinted moisturizer, as an alternative to foundation because I don't do heavy makeup.
