Me too. If I don't blow dry and straighten my hair it looks like a big mop of poodle fur and I hate it lol. So I have to use extra conditioner, straightening mousse, a blow dryer, and a straightener. Then sometimes a bit of hairspray to keep it straight lol. It's a lot of work haha =P
Lmao bonus for you eh? Haha. Sweet. Btw, I love your hair, I can't get my bangs to stay at the side for the life of me, I don't know why haha. It's very irritating.
Why don't you ask her to just get a tiny diamond stud in your nose? It's harmless haha. And that's awesome about your friends and the apprenticeship, I wish I could do that haha =]
then go go go!
