I have really thick hair. A hairdresser once told me I have 3x more hair per square inch than the average person, and I believe it even though I have no idea how she could have calculated that. I’ve come to embrace my hair by piling weird little things on top of it like a bird building a gross but beautiful nest – I usually don’t even have to use clips or anything, but anyone can do this with pretty much anything if you buy a little pack of plastic claw clips from the dollar store. I think it always ends up looking very avant-garde and artistique and only a little bit like a third-grade art project. Here are some of the things I knot into my hair: Safety pins Flowers Pens/pencils String Decorative combs Earrings

I prefer to wear my hair long, but can’t resist the siren call of a drastic chop— when it gets to shoulder length/starts to brush my collarbones, I tend to clip it up. Claw clips and banana clips are good and are better for breakage than hair ties— if you like the look of simple twists try a french pin; I use a heatless curl rod at night, it’s easy to use and keeps my hair from brushing my neck/getting in my face while I sleep; sometimes I use Vegamour’s growth serum around my roots, and I stretch wash days by using dpHue ACV rinse— I tend to shampoo every 4-5 days, and use ACV in between if I need it (this is also because I don’t style my hair with a lot of products, but if you prefer to style with product or have wavy hair, you may shampoo more often and prefer a clarifying shampoo); and I use Prose shampoo and conditioner— it’s a splurge, but I like that it accounts for environmental factors and hardwater, and a bottle lasts 6-8 weeks for me. And take iron, biotin, and a prenatal multivit— it’s just extra vitamins, and if you menstruate you lose more of those.

often when something noteworthy happens to me -- a negative sexual experience, an awkward date, a weird subway encounter -- i'll have the impulse to post about it on twitter. but then i think, what if i texted this to my friend instead? and then you can text it to your friend, maybe even one you haven't texted in a while, and they will probably be happy to hear from you directly and you will have strengthened a beautiful relationship. all tweets are spiritually corrosive and the spirit of your new interpersonal bond will persevere long after platforms are dead

my job is being a writer which means i have a lot of free time and it also means that fun group events within my industry are rare. this opens up the wonderful world of being a GROUPIE -- a quasi-professional fan of the talents of others. i am not a comedian but through being a comedy groupie i have reaped the greatest benefit of the trade (funny friends) without ever having to set foot on an improv stage. i am not a musician but through being a music groupie i get to listen to my friends play beautiful songs and sometimes play with them for fun. i am not in fashion but being a fashion groupie means i get to hang out with impossibly stylish and knowledgeable women and sometimes try on beautiful clothes. being a master of none means you get to hang out with the masters of everything and it rocks. and all that is demanded of you is that you love and appreciate wonderful art -- DONT MIND IF I DO !
