Thick Hair Don't Care
Jennifer Portillo

If you have thick hair, you know it’s both a blessing and a curse. Whether you’re regretting washing your hair at 6 P.M because you had a meeting at 7 P.M. and your hair won’t even dry that fast with a blow dryer, or you’re getting praised for having luscious locks, having a full head of thick hair is something that has to be acknowledged. Here are 6 pro’s and con’s of having thick hair.

Con's:

1. CLOGGED. DRAINS. No need for elaboration.

2. It’s basically an arm workout when you are braiding your hair. Who needs dumbbells, am I right?

3. You have to schedule times to wash your hair because otherwise you won’t have time

4. Your conditioner ALWAYS runs out before your shampoo

5. You can never have too many ponytails because they are forever breaking (only wrap it around once, not three times).

6. You get mad thinking about stepping outside during the summer because it’s 30 degrees hotter. This is scientifically proven.

Pro's:

1.. You don’t have to buy the products that say “volume” because your hair is the definition of volume.

2. You have a plethora of hairstyles to choose from. Aka cornrows, braids, buns, you name it.

3. When you get highlights and the hairdresser puts half of your hair up in foil, the hair that’s left is enough to fill up a whole head

4. You can save money on buying a pillow because you can use your hair as a portable pillow where ever you go

5. During cold weather, your hair is added warmth. Don’t worry about a scarf ladies!!

6. Your hair flip brings all the boys to the yard.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
