article: Katy is notorious for changing her hair color and style but eventually, she always returns to her comfort colour, black. If black is too dark for your skin tone, try a dark or medium brown. Keep highlights to a minimum and use gloss to maintain shine. If you feel comfortable, try cutting some bangs into your hair. Katy often has straight-across bangs. If this feels too bold for you, try side swept bangs instead, which can be easily blended into the rest of your hair. Since Katy is always changing her hair color, you may want to experiment too. However, constantly bleaching and coloring your hair is expensive and may cause some major damage. Pull a “Katy” and wear a wig instead. A wig can be a fun way to have colored hair for a day or even a week, without damaging your natural hair. Know what your wig is made of. You cannot use heat styling tools on a synthetic wig without damaging it. You may also not be able to use hair products on synthetic hair making it difficult to manipulate or blend to your natural hair. While Katy sometimes uses a single color, she often adds length, colored stripes or other textures to her hair. Again, constant coloring and bleaching can really damage your natural hair. Purchase some inexpensive clip-in extensions for a fast way to change your look.  Be creative and experiment with bold colors, feathers, or lengthening extensions.

article: The Multiple Listing Service, or MLS, was created for brokers to share information on local listings in one place, making it easier for Realtors and buyers to find what's available in the area. When selling a house, it is extremely important to list on one of these services, as it is the main place to provide and find information on properties for sale.  Therefore, if your home is not listed on an MLS system, your chances of selling your home are greatly reduced. In fact, the MLS listing is the reason that 80% of properties sell.  The MLS is not one system. Rather, it is a number of databases across the country. Most of them are specific to a region or area, though a few are nationwide. This type of networking has a rich history, going back to the 19th century when brokers would meet in person to trade information on properties. To list on an MLS market, you must be licensed as a real estate agent with the state. You must also join your local Realtor association, as a Realtor which extends your membership to the National Association of Realtors or a non-Realtor member. That means that, as an average home owner, you cannot simply list your home on an MLS system.  Traditionally, for sale by owner (FSBO) homes were not listed on MLS systems. However, you can negotiate with a Realtor to have them list your home on the MLS for a flat fee. You will still need to pay the selling broker a commission that is separate from the listing fee. You may still pay a commission to the broker or a cooperating broker if he or she finds you a buyer. However, if you find your own buyer, you may not pay them a commission, depending on the terms of your contract. If you want to avoid paying the commission, it must be written into your contract that you will not pay a commission if you find your own buyer. Be prepared to prove that you found your buyer without help from the Realtor, including their advertisements for the property. For example, if someone sees the Realtor's sign in your yard and asks you about the property, then the Realtor is still responsible for finding that buyer. If you prefer not to pay someone, you do have a few options. You can list your house for sale on websites such as Craigslist and Zillow. You can also try advertising in your local paper and place your own "For Sale By Owner" sign in front of your house. Consider reading how to use a flat fee multiple listing service when selling by owner for more tips. Your largest base of potential buyers is in your area. Of course, some people may be looking out of state, but they'll still be looking at local databases. For that reason, you must be listed in a local or regional MLS database. Picking a local company, or one that at least knows the area, will help guarantee your listing is put in the correct databases so that buyers can find you. Most companies offer various package levels with different benefits. Some of the packages differ by how many places you list your house. Of course, the more places you list, the more likely you are to sell. Other packages differ by how long the house is listed. Some packages start at six months, while others go up to a year. The price ranges can vary widely, so check around for the best deal.  Advertising is usually one benefit you receive. You get the listing and other online advertisements. In addition, you also usually get yard signs and a lock-box for when Realtors want to show your house.  Later, you may want to purchase additional services. For instance, you may at first think you'll be able to handle the negotiations and the contract. However, if you find you can't, many brokerage services will provide additional help for an added fee. If you feel like you may want to add services later, make sure you can do that with the company you choose.

article:
If your friend has just been rejected, she may not want to hear the things she could improve on in order to improve her odds next time. While there may be things that she’s said or done that contributed to the rejection, or her even if her job loss or her relationship with the boyfriend wasn't ideal, unsolicited advice may be difficult for your friend to benefit from at this time.  For example, this isn’t the time to remind her that she spent a lot of time complaining about the job she just lost, or the man who just broke up with her. Rejection can hurt regardless of the circumstance, so being a good listener is an effective way to help a friend cope with this initial sting. If your friend says that she doesn’t know what she’s doing wrong, and asks you for help figuring it out, then you might offer a gentle suggestion. You don’t want to be too quick to talk about the “opportunity for growth” inherent in a rejection, but at the same time you might help your friend find ways to benefit from the experience. There are always positive aspects to any situation. Sometimes it takes a friend to help you find them.  For example, if she didn’t get the job she wanted, now she’ll be able to attend the family vacation she’d been looking forward to. Being single means having more freedom. Having a story rejected for publication means being able to submit it somewhere else. One way of supporting your friend is to help him navigate his pain. Ask him how he’s feeling, and affirm that his feelings are okay. If he knows that he can share painful things with you as a friend, without being rejected, this may help him feel better. Saying things like, “It sounds like you’re pretty broken up about things,” can help him feel supported. If your friend was deeply wounded by the rejection, she may not have words to articulate how she feels. She might just want to sit quietly with you. Being present and showing that you’re ready to listen when she’s ready to talk will be enough.  You can always offer a hug, or a gentle supportive touch. Talking about something other than the rejection, or doing an activity together are other ways you can offer support for a friend who’s not ready to talk about her feelings yet. For example, try going on a hike, or playing video games together.
