Q: There are many things that can make hair appear frizzy, including genetics. One of the leading causes of frizz is damage. Learn to prevent damage to help keep your hair frizz-free. Both the sun and the wind can wreak havoc on your hair. If it is going to be a hot, sunny day, try to wear a hat or use a hair product with built-in SPF. If it is going to be cold and windy, try to wear a hood, scarf, or hat to protect your hair. Once you finish rinsing your hair after washing and conditioning, give it a final rinse using cool water. This will help seal the hair cuticles and help them lay flat. Your hair will appear smoother afterwards. Most cotton pillowcases will soak up the moisture from your hair, making it look dry and brittle. Also, coarse fabrics, such as cotton and linen, can snag your hair and cause minuscule rips and tears. A satin pillowcase is smooth, and will help reduce hair-damaging friction. Aim for washing your hair 2 to 3 times a week instead. Excessive shampooing can really dry your hair out, which can lead to frizz. Using the wrong shampoo, conditioner, and styling products can result in hair that is frizzy. Choose products that match your hair type to ensure that you are getting the best possible amount of moisture for your hair. Check the label on the product before you buy it to make sure it is a good match for your hair. For example, if you have fine, thin hair, use products that are meant for fine, thin hair, such as thickening or volumizing products. If you have dry, damaged hair, use products that are meant for dry, damaged hair, such as moisturizing or restoring products. Too much heat styling, such as straightening and curling, can cause hair to become brittle and dry. A heat protection spray will help prevent this from happening. However, it is better to leave your hair natural, and give it a few days break between straightening and curling sessions. When blow drying, straightening, or curling your hair, try to use a lower heat setting. Avoid using a high heat setting. It will take longer, but it will be gentler on your hair. While silicones are great for making hair appear smoother, they can cause build-up if not properly washed out. This build-up can make your hair appear limp and dull. Unfortunately, silicones can only be washed out with sulfates, which are harsh cleaning agents. Sulfates can make hair dry and brittle. This can lead to frizz. To remove build-up from hair products, you can use a clarifying shampoo up to 1 time per month. Clarifying shampoos are stronger than regular shampoo, so don't use them regularly. However, they are helpful as a once monthly treatment to deep clean your hair and remove excess oil and product residue. All of these can lead to frizz. Alcohol, caffeine, and smoking are all diuretics. This means that they absorb moisture from the body. No moisture means dry, frizzy hair. Processed foods offer little nutrition, which hair needs to be healthy. They can make frizz worse. Coloring, bleaching, and perms can all damage and weaken hair, causing it to become brittle and dry. All this can make your hair appear frizzy.
A: Know what makes hair frizzy. Protect your hair from the elements. Rinse hair with cold water to help cut down on frizz. Consider sleeping on a satin pillowcase. Don't shampoo your hair every day, especially if it is curly. Choose appropriate hair products for your hair type. Avoid heat styling if you can, and use a heat protection spray when you do. Avoid products that contain silicones and sulfates. Wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo once per month. Limit alcohol, caffeine, smoking, and processed foods. Limit the chemical treatments on your hair.

Q: Different lipsticks suit different hydration needs. If you have very dry lips, you will need to avoid many shimmery, matte, and long-wear lipsticks, as these will dry out your lips even faster. Cream lipsticks are intended for everyday wear.  They often come in nude tones, and are used to make neutral looks look finished. If you choose a nude shade, make sure it is  a little bit darker than your skin tone. Glossy lipsticks add shine to your lips, which gives them volume. Unlike matte or cream lipsticks, glossy lipsticks hide all the lines and wrinkles on your lips with light, giving your lips a full, round feel. Glossy lipsticks are not casual.  They may also dry out your lips, so do not use them if you have naturally dry lips. These are very popular right now, and they are often long-lasting. Be careful using matte lipsticks if you have dry lips. Matte lipsticks accentuate every line and wrinkle on your lips, because they have no shine to gloss over details.  If you use matte lipstick, make sure to hydrate your lips beforehand. These are very shimmery lipsticks that were popular in the 1980s and 1990s.  They were often chosen a few shades lighter than the wearer's skin tone.  Some looks from the '90s like jelly shoes and crop tops have returned, and some celebrities are now wearing frosted lipstick.
A: Determine your lips' dryness. Choose cream lipsticks for casual looks and maximum hydration. Choose satin or gloss lipsticks for long wear and a shimmery finish. Choose matte lipsticks for a velvet finish. Choose frosted lipsticks for a retro look.

Q: One of the most important parts of being a counselor is genuinely caring about people. Work on being empathetic, non-judgemental, and genuine. You can hone these skills by having in-depth conversations with your friends and family members. It also helps to read a lot of books. Reading can help you learn to relate to people and be more open-minded.  Get in the habit of practicing self-care. Being a counselor can be tough at times and you might feel very emotional. Set aside time each day to relax and do something you enjoy. You could try meditation, yoga, or getting together with friends. You might also find it helpful to see a counselor yourself. In addition to earning your degree, you need to complete a certain number of clinical hours. Each state has different requirements, so check to see what your state requires. You can look online, and your graduate program advisor should also be able to help you figure this out. You will typically need to complete anywhere between 1,000-4,000 hours within 2-3 years.  Many of these hours have to be completed under the supervision of a licensed counselor. Make sure to check the requirements in the state where you want to work. Typically, you'll complete most of these hours by doing individual counseling sessions with a client while under the supervision of a licensed therapist. You might also have to do a certain amount of hours in different areas, such as individual and group counseling. Every state requires you to have a license to work as a mental health counselor. Most states use either the National Counseling Exam (NCE) or the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Exam (NCMHCE). Some states require you to also take a state exam. Look online to find the specific requirements for your state. If you work in private practice, you don’t necessarily have to become board certified. Many other employers, like schools or hospitals, might require it. Look into certification if you want to be able to explore more employment opportunities. Many states require the Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor either instead of state licensure or in addition to state licensure. Check out the website of the National Board for Certified Counselors for more specific information. There are many different types of mental health counselor. You could go into private practice by yourself or with some other counselors. You can also look for employment at hospitals, universities, and many different corporations. Search online for job openings. You can also ask the career center at your school for help finding a job.
