Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Do not brush your hair when it is dry. Detangle wet curls with a wide tooth comb. Get the right haircut. Use flat irons and curling irons sparingly and with care.

Answer: Doing so will cause the curls to separate and become frizzy. If you need to tame your hair, try combing it with damp fingers, or applying a little bit of hair oil or styling cream. A wide-toothed comb is also safe to use. The bristles are spaced far enough so that they won't disrupt the natural curl pattern of your hair. Comb your hair starting from the ends first, and work your way up in small sections. Never comb your hair straight down from the roots to the ends. This will create snags, tangles, and frizz. If your hair is extra stubborn, try applying some oil, styling cream, or leave-in conditioner first. What looks great on your curly-haired friend may not look so good on you. Every curl is different. What haircut will look best on you will depend on how long you want your hair to be, how curly your hair is, and how much effort you are willing to put into your hair when styling her. Here are some tips and ideas:  If you have tight, spiral curls, try to get longer layers. This will help weigh your hair down a little so it doesn't poof up, but it won't disrupt the curl pattern. If you have long, wavy hair, try getting some long layers. Keep the layers minimal, or your hair may poof out.  If you like shorter hairstyles, try a long, shoulder-length bob. Keep it long in the front, and short in the back. This will help define your curls.  If you like really short hair, don't be afraid to get a pixie cut! Just make sure that it is shorter on the sides and longer at the top. Both can damage curly hair and make it frizzy. If you have to use a flat iron or curling iron, spray your hair with a heat protection spray first. Adjust your flat iron or curling iron to a lower temperature setting before using it on your hair. Do not go higher than 400°F (205°C) or you will damage your hair.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Leave them wanting more. Get a phone number. Schedule a meet up.

Answer: If you started out strong, don't forget to end your conversations strong. Know when to stop texting. You can't keep conversations forever. There always comes a time when there is nothing left to say.  When you feel like both of you are struggling for something to say, end your conversations immediately. Measure the response. Try to sense if the person likes you or not. If the person doesn't respond much, the person is probably not interested in flirting with you, and you should just end the conversation for good. You should set up your next interaction before you go. Say something like “Message me again sometime”, or “Let’s talk again tomorrow?” Don’t just say “Bye!” Tell the other person why you are leaving and what will you be doing. If you are going to meet up with the person, don't be afraid to say that you can't wait to see him/her. Avoid an awkward good-bye. Say that you had fun and it was great talking with him/her. Just keep it simple and casual. Many Tinder users don't want to keep chatting through the app, as it's fairly impersonal. If you're enjoying the flirt, get their number so your chats can become more relatable. Hearing the other person's voice can do a lot for your connection. Instead of asking for a phone number, you might find more success in offering yours first, and letting the other person know that there's no pressure if they don't want to use it. Tinder is a dating service, and many people expect to be able to meet the user at the other end of the message. If you two are making a connection, you owe it to the other person to meet up at least once to see where it goes.  Pick a safe location where you and the other person will both feel comfortable. Avoid the clichéd "dinner and a movie" first meeting. Instead, meet for lunch or for drinks and see where the conversation goes. See this guide for more first date tips.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Stop to observe everything around you. Pay attention to small details. Stay in the present moment. Write down everything that you notice on a daily basis. Quantify everything you notice.

Answer: Take a few moments every day, and just pause. Sweep your gaze over your field of vision. Try to notice as many details as possible. This will train you to pay more attention to your surroundings.  Pay attention to the people, objects, animals, plants, and buildings around you. Try doing this in a different place every day. Start at home, then try it at an office, park, mall, grocery store, or a local landmark. Often, people only notice the large objects that surround them. As you go throughout your day, try to look for the smaller details that might surround buildings, landmarks, and large spaces.  For example, you might be at a store. What does the sign say? Is there anything on the windows? How many carts are lined up outside? If you're walking through a neighborhood, you might study the different mailboxes, lawn ornaments, plants, or toys out in the yard. It is easy to become distracted by electronics, intrusive thoughts, or noisy environments, but these can make you less observant. Rather than tune out your surroundings, try to focus on where you are in the moment.  Instead of listening to music on your commute, describe your surroundings. On the bus, you might notice that there are five people on it, that the bus is making a rumbling noise, and that there is a musty smell. When you take a walk, listen to the sounds of nature, such as birds singing or the wind rustling through the trees. Think about how the sun feels on your skin or how brightly colored the flowers are. Do this throughout your day as you notice things. This will keep you observant in the moment. Write your observations in a journal or word document. Try to be as specific as possible.  What did you see? Was it a certain color, size, or shape? Where was the object? How it was placed in relation to other objects? What kinds of sounds were going on around you? What types of sensations did you feel? Who was there? What were they wearing? What were they doing? When you're trying to observe something, try to identify how many of them there are. These numbers will force to you to pay more attention to the size or quantity of objects. As time goes on, you may be able to count objects more quickly.  For example, instead of “I saw some kids playing outside,” you might write, “I saw four kids playing outside with one ball.” Instead of saying "I had to sign a bunch of documents," keep track of what you did. You might observe that you signed your name four different times on two different documents.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Talk to an expert about your tattoo to ease your mind. Learn where tattoos hurt the most. Learn which tattoos hurt the most. Arrange for someone to come with you. Know that there will be needles and a small amount of blood.

Answer:
If you've never had a tattoo, the best way to mentally prepare yourself is to get rid of the mystery surrounding it. Ideally, you want to walk into your tattoo appointment without too much anxiety — the more relaxed you are, the easier your experience will be. Try talking to people who have many tattoos or the staff at your local tattoo parlor about their experiences getting tattoos. Most will be happy to talk. Everyone's pain tolerance is different. While tattoos are uncomfortable for most people, they aren't anywhere near things like childbirth and kidney stones. Most people you talk to should confirm this. A good amount of the pain from your tattoo is affected by the location on your body where you get it. If you're looking to minimize your pain, you may want to move it to one of the less-painful areas. While everyone's body is different, in general:  Areas with lots of muscle (arms, legs, upper pectorals) and areas with lots of fatty padding (glutes, hips, etc.) tend to hurt the least.  Sensitive areas (breasts, underarms, face, groin) and "hard" areas close to bones (scalp, face, collarbone, ribs, hands, feet) tend to hurt 'the most. All tattoos are not created equally. The pain level of your tattoo experience can also be affected by what, exactly, you're getting put onto your body. While some exceptions exist, in general:  The smaller and simpler a tattoo is, the less painful it will be. Large, detailed designs hurt much more. Black and gray tattoos are less painful (and take less time) than multi-color tattoos. Areas of solid color hurt the most because they require the artist to go over their work several times. You don't have to endure your tattoo experience alone. If you can, try taking a friend or family member whose company you enjoy. Having someone who cares for you makes the experience much easier — you'll have someone to talk to about your jitters beforehand and someone to give words of encouragement when you run into pain. If you aren't too shy, try making a social event out of your tattoo appointment. Many tattoo parlors allow small groups to hang out in the lobby or even in the room where the tattoo is being done if they aren't unruly. Having a group of people to encourage you — even cheer for you — can make getting a tattoo a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A modern tattoo machine is essentially a small set of needles that go in and out of the skin very quickly, leaving a little ink each time. This basically has the effect of making lots of tiny cuts in the area where the tattoo is. Almost everyone who gets a tattoo bleeds a little bit from this. If any of this process makes you feel faint or nauseous, you should plan not to watch. Don't be afraid to explain your situation to your tattoo artist. A good one will be more than happy to help you get through your tattoo with minimal discomfort.
