Q: Your bedroom should be your sanctuary. It should be an escape from the stress of your everyday life, whether those include your work, your children, your health, or your friendships. It should not be a place where you throw all of the extra things you have no place for. On the contrary, it should be your oasis in the middle of a desert, a place you can come to when you want to rest -- or just when you need a break. Never bring extra items into your bedroom or negative energy and over time you will start to respect the space more. For the best Feng Shui, you should avoid bright, garish lights, or ceiling lights over your bed. Instead, have desk lamps with soft light, and try to get as much natural light as you can from the window. This will make you feel more serene and at ease than harsh lights that are too bright. Try adding small lamps, string lights, and other soft lighting to avoid needing the overhead lighting. If you can, try to avoid placing your bed between the window and a door, or you'll be in the middle of the "draught" of chi running between these two places. If you can't avoid it, just make sure you have nice, pleasant curtains to block some of the bad energy. You should also avoid sleeping facing the window, if you can, or your sleep won't be as restful. Hang up images of calming scenes from nature, or other places that inspire you. Pick some neutral scenery, an image that motivates you to achieve your dreams, or something else that puts you in a calm and peaceful frame of mind. Anything too graphic, gory or just disturbing does not belong in your bedroom. Place the most inspiring image across from your line of sight in the bed, so that it's the first thing you see when you wake up. Hang photos of your favorite places or display an inspirational quote on the wall. Try to have equal space on either side of your bed and other furniture. A person should be able to walk around as easily around one side of the room as the other, within reason. Of course, a piece of furniture may add some inequality, but in general, you should avoid letting most of the stuff in the bedroom clutter over to one side, or you'll create discord in your most important room. Go through your closet and drawer and remove all of the clothes you haven't worn within the last year. Donate these clothes or pass them on to a friend or relative if they can still be worn. Even though you may not see the old clothes, keeping them in your bedroom may prevent you from embracing new opportunities. " You can have a few key family photos in your bedroom, but avoid a clutter of photos of people everywhere, or you will feel like you're being watched and will get overwhelmed. The same goes for religious figures. Keep your bedroom as spare and simple as possible. Don't add extra chairs, lamps, or pictures to your bedroom if you're not sure whether or not they are really necessary. The more stuff you have in there, the more difficult it may be to find balance. To have optimal Feng Shui in your bedroom, you have to get rid of any extra papers, trash, old trinkets, silly photos, useless gifts, or really just anything you don't really need in there. If you have too much sentimental attachment to some of the items, you can put them in storage or another room, but work on minimizing the stuff you really need in your bedroom. Having a spare and uncluttered bedroom will lead to an uncluttered and fulfilling life.
A: Think of your bedroom as an oasis. Have soft lighting. Be aware of the position of the windows. Have inspiring art in your bedroom. Aim for equality. Get rid of clothes you no longer wear. Avoid photos of relatives or friends "watching you. Make sure your bedroom isn't too crowded. Get rid of any clutter.

Q: Stylists recommend that you don’t wash your hair until four weeks after your hair has been micro braided. After four weeks, wash and condition your hair once a week and make sure not to skip conditioner. To wash your braids correctly, dampen your hair first, then gently massage shampoo into your braids and scalp. Try not to rub your braids too much, as this can cause frizzing. Rinse with warm water until the shampoo is gone. Heavy conditioning products can make your scalp flaky, which is hard to get rid of with micro braids. If you need to, dilute your conditioner with enough water to make it easier to rinse out.  Dilute your conditioner with some water in an applicator bottle with a pointed tip for easier access to the scalp. The conditioner should be watered down enough to easily pour out of the bottle’s tip.  This technique can also be used with shampoo if your formula is thick and difficult to rinse out. Wash with a deep moisturizer and conditioner right away. You can also use a protein treatment to restore moisture back to your hair and keep it healthy.
A: Don’t wash or condition your hair for four weeks. Wash and condition weekly after waiting four weeks. Shampoo your micro braids carefully. Dilute your conditioner before applying. Deep-moisturize and condition immediately after taking out braids.

Q: Wear a pair of latex or nitrile gloves to keep your hands clean while handling the salt cell and PVC pipes. Also put on protective eye goggles to shield your eyes when cutting PVC pipe. Use the electronic controls attached to the pool’s plumbing system. Press the “off” button to stop the pump. The salt cell is a cylinder, usually colored white, on a pipe near the control panel. It attaches to the pipe through a pair of plastic PVC rings called unions. Turn the unions counterclockwise by hand until you can pull them off the salt cell. Then, lift the cell off of the pipes. You will need to replace the salt cell with new pipe before you can activate the pump again. Measure the space between existing pipes where the salt cell used to be. Also note the diameter of the existing pipes by measuring across their openings.  Get a new pipe that is the same diameter as the existing pipes. It will fit into any fittings already attached to the old pipes. You will also need 2 straight fittings to connect the new PVC pipe to the old ones. Dry-fit the pipe and the connectors where your salt cell used to be. If the pipe is too long, place it in a vise set on a flat workbench. Use a hacksaw to cut the pipe to size. Some stores may cut the pipe for you if you give them your measurements. Wipe down the pipe ends with a clean cloth. Use the brush included with the purple primer to paint about 3 in (7.6 cm) along the ends of each fitting. Coat the inner end of each fitting as well as the outer portions both the new and existing pipes. Then, wait about 10 seconds for the primer to dry. Take the cap off the PVC cement bottle to uncover the brush. Spread a thin, even layer of cement over the outer ends of the fittings. Also coat the inside portion of the pipes. Spread the cement about 3 in (7.6 cm) as well, covering all of the primer. Set a fitting in each existing pipe. Push the fittings as far as you can to ensure they glue in place. Situate them so the other opening points outwards towards the opposite pipe. Move the pipe to the open space in the plumbing system. Slide the new pipe into the fitting of the lower pipe. Give the pipe a quarter twist to the right to lock it in place. Then, pull the uppermost pipe back and slide the new pipe into its fitting. Avoid activating the pump again until the glue has settled. After about 2 hours, you can drain the pool and add chemicals to convert it to chlorine.
A:
Wear gloves and goggles for safety. Turn off the pool pump. Unscrew the salt cell to remove it. Use a tape measure to determine what size PVC pipe you need. Cut a new PVC pipe to size. Brush primer onto the new and existing pipes. Spread PVC cement over the primed areas on the pipes. Place the fittings on the existing pipes. Set the new pipe in place. Wait 2 hours for the glue to dry.
