Q: Do whichever is comfortable.
A: Dribble with your left or right hand.

Q: Hair grows about 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) per month, and often becomes damaged as it gets longer. If your hair is damaged or has split ends, it will likely have trouble taking curls. Getting your ends trimmed frequently will help you create your dream curls. Long layers will hold a curl better than straight-cut edges. Ask your stylist for long layers to help you create curls. Adding mousse or curling cream creates body and helps your hair hold curls. Evenly distribute a quarter-sized amount to your hair before styling it. Read the labels or ask your stylist to find out what product type best suits your hair. When you're planning to curl your hair, cut your conditioner in half. Conditioner can weigh down your hair, which can make curls drop out of it. Root boosters add volume to your hair. Spritz a small amount of the product at the roots of damp hair on days when you are planning to curl your hair.
A: Trim your hair every 6-8 weeks. Get a haircut with long layers. Create texture with products. Use less conditioner. Try a root booster.

Q: Biracial hair can be tricky to style, as it is often thick, curly, and unruly. You can tackle biracial hair by ensuring you have a styling tools kit that contains several essential styling items, including:  Combs: You should have several combs on hand, including a wide-tooth comb, which will help to detangle your hair, a rattail comb for parting hair and removing dirt or residue in your hair, and a pick with wide teeth to help comb out your hair. A soft or medium boar bristle brush: This type of brush is good for biracial hair as it will not break or damage your hair. Avoid brushes with plastic or nylon bristles. A spray bottle: You can fill the spray bottle with one part natural oil (such as olive oil, rosemary oil, almond oil, or lavender oil) and six parts water. You can also use a detangler spray that contains natural oils. A blow dryer: Use a blow dryer that has a comb attachment and/or a diffuser attachment. These attachments can help to dry your hair quickly and prevent tangles. Hair clips: These will come in handy when parting and dividing your hair. Styling gel: This can help to keep your hair in place and ensure it looks sleek and clean. Natural oils: Oils like sage, olive, rosemary, and almond are good for your hair and your scalp. You can apply them every time you style your hair and/or once a day. Combing out your hair is one the best ways to keep your hair looking healthy and clean. It will also lead to less tangles and make it easier to maintain your hair. To comb out your hair, you will need a rattail comb, a wide-tooth comb, a boar-bristle brush, hair clips and hair oil. If you have finer hair, you may only have four to five sections. Usually, the tighter your curls are, the more sections you will have..  Be gentle when you divide your hair and avoid digging the comb into your scalp. If there are any tangles in your hair, use your fingers to pull the strands apart. Once you have separated a section, twist the section into a tight twist and secure it with a clip. Then, unclip one section of hair and get your wide-tooth comb ready. Use the wide-tooth comb and work from the ends up to the roots using quick movements. Try not to comb too aggressively, as you want to avoid pulling out your hair or damaging it. Work one section at a time, unclipping each section and combing from the ends to the roots. Once you have combed out all the sections of your hair, apply a small amount of oil to your scalp and massage the oil into your hair. Use only natural oils and avoid heavy oils like lanolin, petroleum, and mineral oils. They will clog up your scalp and attract dust and dirt. You can then use the boar bristle brush to brush the oil into your hair, working section by section again. If you have very thick hair, you may skip this step to prevent your hair from getting too frizzy. Blow-drying your hair can help to straighten your hair without using harsh chemicals and make it easier to comb your hair or style it into braids. Blow-dry your hair in sections, after you have combed out your hair and added oil to your scalp. Use the comb attachment on the blow dryer. Blow dry in sections, drying the ends first. Once you dry the ends of a section, move up your hair and dry the hair closest to your scalp last.
A: Create a styling tools kit. Comb out your hair after it has been washed and conditioned. Use the rattail comb to divide your hair into four to eight sections. Comb your hair at the ends and work your way up to the roots. Apply a small amount of oil to your scalp. Blow dry your hair for a straight hair look.

Q: Your total rise is the height from one story to the next that the stairs will connect. The total rise should be set in most cases, so you simply need to measure the height. This distance should be from the top of the finished floor below and the finished floor at the top. If the floor is unfinished when you are calculating your stringers, you need to take that into account. The height of each step can vary a bit but there are general standards. It is standard to have your riser be about 7 inches (18 cm) tall, so use this measurement unless you have specific parameters that prevent it, such as limited headroom.  This measurement is sometimes called the individual rise of the stairs. For this calculation you are simply figuring out how many stairs it will take to get the height you need. Use a calculator or do the arithmetic by hand, as it is generally pretty simple.  For example, if you want 7 inches (18 cm) tall stairs and your overall rise needs to be 56 inches (140 cm), then 56/7=8. You will need 8 stairs. The number of treads you have (individual runs) will automatically be one less than the number of risers. Your total run is the horizontal distance between the top and the bottom of the stairs. How far the stairs stick out can vary depending on your needs, but keep in mind that stairs should usually be at an angle of about 40 degrees.  In general, the run of each stair should be about 10 inches (25 cm) in order for people’s feet to fit comfortably as they walk up them. There are many stair calculators that you can use online to figure out stair measurements. You simply need to input your rise and the angle you want for your stairs and they will calculate the other measurements you need, including your run. Once you have the overall rise and run of the stairs, you can calculate how long the stringer needs to be. You can either use an online stair calculator, a hypotenuse calculator, or you can do the math yourself. To calculate the length yourself, you will need to use the Pythagorean theorem, which is a2 + b2 = c2. So, for example, if the rise needs to be 60 inches (150 cm) and the run needs to be 84 inches (210 cm), then you would calculate 602 + 842 = c2, with “c” being the length of 99 inches (250 cm). Ensure your math and calculations are correct so that you don’t waste your time and materials cutting risers that don’t fit. It’s better to take a few minutes to double check yourself than to waste a whole lot of time redoing your work.
A:
Measure out how much total rise your stairs need. Determine how tall you want each step to be. Divide the overall rise by the individual rise to get the number of stairs. Determine how much run each stair will need. Calculate how long the stringer needs to be. Double check your measurements before you start marking your cuts.
