Living with thin hair should be worthy of an award.

I just can't imagine that girls with luxurious manes have as many problems as us less fortunate gals. They're always like "I have too much hair!" Yeah, well most of my problems stem from having not enough hair.

1. Ponytails

These are most girls "go to lazy look" or something they can even pull off for a night out, but for girls struggling with thin hair, it looks like you put a scrunchy around a couple pieces of angel hair spaghetti. AND It's almost guaranteed your scalp is going to make an appearance.

2. Having to wash it every day

Because if you don't, you'll have to use an entire can of dry shampoo to try and hide the greasiness.

3. Styles are limited

Imagine this, sitting around with your friends talking about your future dream weddings, what you want your dress to look like, what you want your bridesmaids to wear, and how you want your hair to look.....all fine and dandy, until you remember how your thin hair is and how little you can do with it.

4. Hats are tricky

Oh? you want to wear a beanie? Do you want to also look bald? Yes? Ok then wear the beanie

5. Panicking every time a strand of hair falls out

What if one day its your last piece? It's probably and irrational fear, but every time you look in the drain of the shower, or at all the hairs that have accumulated in your brushes you die a little inside in fear of one day your hair being thinner and thinner, until it's gone.

6. It blowing in the wind

All your thick haired friends look hot when the wind blows their hair, but you find yourself using more and more hairspray to avoid such disasters.

7. You're tired of people pointing it out

If ONE MORE person says "omg your hair is so thin!!!" I may lose my cool. I know it's thin...it's attached to my head.....I struggle with it every day

8. And even more tired of "Well at least your hair isn't thick!"

Ok, then let's trade and we'll see how fast you want your thick hair back.


But on the plus side, we've never had to worry about leaving the house with wet hair, because it's pretty much dry right after we turn the shower off.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
