You can leave your bracelet plain, especially if it already has designs printed onto it. You can also take it to the next level by decorating it in one of the following ways listed below. Some toothbrushes have a hole in the base of the handle. If you have a toothbrush like this, you can add a charm to it. Get a pair of pliers, a large jump ring, and a pretty bead or charm, then do the following:  Hold one side of the jump ring with your fingers and the other with the pliers. Open the jump ring by pulling the two sides past each other (not away). Slip a charm or bead onto the jump ring. Slide one side of the jump ring through the hole in the toothbrush. Close the jump ring by pushing the two sides back towards each other. Pinch the jump ring shut the rest of the way, if needed.

Summary: Consider decorating the toothbrush bracelet. Add a charm if the toothbrush has a hole in it.

A card thrown accurately moves on the motion of its spin. Cards don't fly through the air stock straight like when Gambit throws them in an X-Men comic. To get the most sticking power and accuracy out of your throws, spin the card as much as possible. Practice extending your wrist and your fingers in one fluid motion, as quickly as possible. At the apex of your toss, speed up your motion just slightly, really putting some flick into your wrist. This'll be the difference between a lame duck and a cutting card. Popular targets for card-throwing involve a lot of Styrofoam and fruit. Experienced card throwers can stick a playing card into a potato from several paces away, and melons, apples, Styrofoam backing, cardboard, and other surfaces. Practice tossing until you can get the corner to stick in firmly. Don't throw cards at anyone's face or body. Even if you're not throwing with much power yet, a card in the eye can be extremely dangerous. Be very careful and only practice by throwing cards at appropriate targets. There's no one correct way of throwing cards, so practicing will be a matter of experimenting with different grips and techniques and seeing what works right for you. Try picking your favorite parts of each technique and welding them together into your own hybrid style of throwing. Make it work for you. Watch Ricky Jay throw cards on YouTube to watch closely the kind of motion he uses and the snap he gets into his cards. Go see a magician or card expert in action to learn more and pick up all the tricks of the trade you can. . To get better at any sleight-of-hand tricks, especially card throwing, it's a good idea to spend some time building dexterity and strength in your wrists and forearms. The strong your wrists and hands, the better and more accurately you'll be able to throw cards. It's a good idea to stretch out your wrists after you throw cards, and to loosen them up before. To do this, get down on your knees and put your palms flat on the ground, curling your wrists around so your fingers are pointing back at yourself. Stretch out your wrists by bringing your butt toward the ground and keeping your palms flat. It's much easier to throw new, stiff, crisp cards, than old ones that you've been playing rummy with for years. If you want to make it easy on yourself, get some new good-quality cards that'll stand up to throwing, and replace them regularly to get the most accuracy and power out of your throws.

Summary: Focus on spin. Aim at an appropriate target. Experiment with different grips. Build strength in your wrist Use new cards.


This is important as the oils on your hair will help protect it against damage. When you do wash your hair 24 to 48 hours prior, make sure that you only use shampoo. Conditioner will prevent the dye from adhering. Put on a shirt that you won't mind staining, then wrap an old towel or a plastic cape around your shoulders. Coat your hairline, the tips of your ears, and the back of your neck with petroleum jelly. Finally, pull on a pair of plastic gloves.  Work in an area that is easy to clean, such as a bathroom or kitchen. If you are worried about staining the counters or floors, cover them with newspaper, paper bags, or plastic bags. It is easier to dye your hair in layers .5–1 in (1.3–2.5 cm) thick rather than in sections. Part your hair across the back of your head at about ear-level. Pull everything above the part into a bun.  Secure the bun with a claw-clip. It'll be the easier to remove and replace. If you have very thick hair, you may want to part it even lower so that you are working with thinner sections. If your hair is too short to pull into a bun, use clips. If you have chin-length or shorter hair, you may not have to do this step at all. Some dyes come in a kit that already include the dye and developer. For other dyes, you must purchase the developer separately. Follow the instructions that came with the dye to find out how you should mix them.  You can mix the dye in the squeeze bottles that came in the kit, or you can mix it in a non-metal bowl.  If you are lightening your hair, add 1 to 3 packets of toner. The more packets you use, the ashier the final color will be.  If you can't find packets of toner, don't worry; you can wash your hair with purple shampoo afterwards to remove brassy hints. Take a thin strand of hair from an inconspicuous area, such as your nape, and apply the dye to it. Cover the strand with plastic wrap, and let the dye sit for the time recommended on the bottle. Rinse the dye out with cool water, then let it dry.  You don't have to use conditioner for this since this is just a strand test. Although not absolutely necessary, strand tests are highly recommended because the color may come out differently from what you expect. If the dye did not turn out the way you wanted it, you’ll have to buy a different color.
Summary: Start with dry, brushed hair that hasn't been washed for 24 to 48 hours. Protect your clothing and skin against stains. Pin your hair up, leaving only the bottom layer loose. Prepare your dye according to the instructions on the package. Perform a strand test to gauge the color.
