You did it! Graduation day is here. This is a wonderful time for you and your loved ones. Everyone is so excited. What will you wear? Stay with something nice because you might be going to a party afterward. However, you don't want to be uncomfortable with what you are wearing under the cap and gown. Give it some thought and come up with the right ensemble for that special night.
Instructions
1. See if they mention a dress code. Check through the literature given to graduates by your school. Consider the weather.
2. Plan on wearing dark colors. If you are male, a pair of black dress pants will work well. For a female, a dark skirt or pants will be what you need.
3. Male and female graduates need to wear nice shoes because you will be walking across the stage in front of everyone. At this point, athletic shoes often look "tacky."
4. After the graduation ceremony, you may remove your cap and gown and go out to celebrate. Show off the nice clothing that you picked for the ceremony and the party afterward.
5. Guests should look nice, but casual is okay. The focus will be on the graduates.
Beach hair is the look that hair has after a day at the beach. The hair is textured, slightly wavy and has a tangled appearance from the salt spray and wind. You can create beach hair at home with a few hairstyling tools. You can create this style in just a few minutes if you braid your hair at night and release it in the morning. If you have a little extra time, you can perform the entire process in the morning with a blow-dryer.
Instructions
1. Wash your hair as normal with shampoo. Work a leave-in conditioner into your hair.
2. Dry your hair until it is still wet but not soaking.
3. Spray your entire head with texturizing spray. Brush your hair to distribute the texturizing spray to the end of the strands.
4. Divide the hair into eight or 10 small sections. Braid each section with a loose braid. Tie the braid ends with hair ties.
5. Blow-dry the braids until the hair is completely dry. Untie the braids and comb through the hair with your fingers.
6. Spray the crown of your head with hair powder. Massage the powder into your skull to add lift along the crown of the head.
7. Spray the waves with a gentle-hold hair spray to keep the waves in place all day.
8. Wind a few pieces of hair framing your face around a curling iron. This will give your hair a little extra texture around the face.

The United States was in the midst of the Depression, and it looked to Hollywood for relief. It is no wonder that the hairstyles of the day were influenced by the lovely ladies of the silver screen.
Finger Waves
Brought to fashion by movie legend Jean Harlow, finger waves found their way into short and medium-length hairstyles of the 1930s. The look was achieved by applying setting gel to the hair and molding it into waves with your fingers until the gel was dry.
Pin Curls
Popular for short hair, pin curls were achieved by applying setting gel and rolling the hair into a curl with the fingers. The curls were held in place with bobby pins until they dried.
Upswept
Made popular by movie actress Bette Davis, the upswept look required many bobby pins to hold the hair at the crown. The ends of the hair were often curled and arranged on top of the head.
Hats
Greta Garbo made hats all the rage in the 1930s. The small hats were worn angled downward over half of the woman's face to achieve a shadowed look.
1930s Fashion Facts
The turn of the decade in 1930 brought a feminine form and style back to the fashion industry. Curvy body shapes accompanied curvy hair on the runways of Paris throughout the 1930s, doing away with the boy-look of the 1920s.

Hairstyles were influenced by musicians of the time.
The gravity-defying hairstyles of the 1980s were heavily processed using perms, colors and lashings of hairspray. Natural and subtle styles were out and big bold looks, inspired by pop stars of the decade such as Madonna and Cyndi Lauper, were in. The big hairstyles of the 1980s matched the bright clothing and makeup of the time that was worn by both men and women alike. From punk influenced spiked mullets to the bubblegum pop-inspired side ponytail, the hair of the '80s was all about making a statement.
Crimps
Crimping was a fashionable way to create full-bodied hair without the need for a perm. A pair of hair crimpers was a must-have beauty tool of the '80s that was much like the hair straighteners used today, but with ridges on the plates rather than a smooth finish. Crimping plates were made of metal, which is much more damaging than the ceramic plates now used. Crimped hair was often left loose or secured into a tied ponytail.
Mullet
Worn by men and women alike, the mullet was one of the most iconic hairstyles of the decade. With hair cut short on top and left long at the back, the mullet came in many variations. For the slightly more conservative individual, the back section would reach to the shoulders. For those who embraced the trend, the hair at the back was left much longer and heavily teased with hairspray. Although the mullet is often mocked today, at the time the style was fashionable.
Side Ponytail
The side ponytail was a quick and easy style for girls with longer hair. Ponytails were often worn high on top of the head and included several neon bright hair scrunches. The ponytail had to be big so curls, crimps, backcombing and lots of hairspray completed the look. A similar variation of the style included all of the hair being swept over to one side and heavily hair-sprayed to appear as though it has been caught in the wind.
Perms and Color
The classic perm was made famous in the 1980s. Perms meant that rollers were out as hair could be treated to remain curly until it grew out naturally. Home perming kits and home colors meant that even teens in a tight budget could adopt a style to match the famous singers of the decade. Bright streaks of color such as pink, orange and red were also in fashion, made famous by stars such as Cyndi Lauper and Boy George.

Prom is a special occasion for teenagers. Part of preparing for prom is the fun of choosing the hairstyle, makeup and the dress. As it's a formal occasion, one common prom hairstyle to try is the updo. An updo looks chic and feminine on most young women. A standard updo may feel a bit boring, but you can jazz it up a bit and or add variation with a partial updo.
Bun at Nape
A fun and romantic updo is to create a bun tied at the nape of your neck, slightly to the side, rather than directly in the back. The front of your hair should be curly or wavy, with soft tendrils peeking out. To create this style, part your hair off to the side. Curl the hair in front using a large-barrel curling iron. Then, sweep your hair back and pin the bun into place.
Curly Messy
For a sassy hairstyle for prom, try a messy updo look. This softens up the formal look of updos. This style, too, looks great with curly or wavy hair. Use a rat-tail comb to tease the hair at your crown and spray it with hairspray. Sweep your hair up and pin it into place using decorative clips. Use pomade and gel to define the curls as well. Add a decorative headband to your hair to finish off the look.
Ringlets
Create a sexy updo with ringlet curls that cascade over the top of the crown of your head. This is ideal for voluminous curly hair. Secure your hair using bobby pins near the crown of your head. Allow the ringlets to hang down the side, and even down on your neck. Add flowers to the side of the updo. If you have very naturally curly hair, you can just use a small-barrel curling iron to add random curls throughout your hair. If you have to create the ringlets, use the curling iron on all of your hair to create them. Spray your hair with shine spray and hairspray.

Temp agencies are the perfect solution for people who need a flexible work schedule and for companies needing extra help, whether for a day or an indefinite period. With an extensive group of employees only a phone call away, temp agencies are a reliable source for filling employers' needs and providing temporary employees with a variety of work assignments.
Function
Providing companies with qualified employees on a part-time, full-time or long-term temporary basis is the primary focus of a temp agency. Some temp agencies are specialized and provide temporary help to a specific type of business, such as insurance and medical claims representatives, medical billing specialists, accounting and payroll personnel, technical support staff and computer software and hardware programmers. Other temp agencies may provide qualified employees to both specialized business clients as well as clients with general needs such as day labor/construction employees, administrative, clerical, receptionist, secretarial, sales and customer service positions.
Types
Temporary employees are generally used to cover for an unexpected absence, illness, scheduled vacations, special projects or peak work periods. Temp to perm employees are in positions that will lead to permanent placement once the employee has worked a pre-determined amount of time set by the client and temp agency. Long-term temporary employees may be used to cover maternity leave, extended sick leave or if the permanent position is vacant and the temporary is filling in. Permanent positions within a client company can be designated to a temp agency to fill by providing candidates to interview.
Benefits
Temp agencies are able to provide employees on short notice when unexpected situations or emergencies arise. Temp agencies have a reliable team of employees to choose from to fill temporary positions that have been pre-screened, tested and interviewed with all references and background checks completed. For temporary employees, temp agencies provide flexibility in scheduling, weekly pay, benefits including insurance, vacation and holiday pay, in-house computer training and the possibility of permanent employment.
Considerations
Companies can use temporary employees to fill vacant positions without the expense of providing a benefit package. For temp to perm positions, a temp's work can be monitored prior to offering a permanent position. The temp agency can be a source for providing pre-qualified candidates to companies with vacant positions. Temporary employees have the opportunity to work at multiple companies, which will expand their knowledge and skills. Many temp agencies have offices across the U.S., allowing employees who are moving to transfer their paperwork and work history to the new location.
Warning
Client companies requesting temporary staffing should always be clear about the type of position, job requirements and duration of the assignment. This way, the temporary employee scheduled to fill the position has all of the correct information prior to accepting the assignment. It eliminates any misunderstandings. Leaving temporary assignments without notice can mean removal from the agency's available employee list or termination. Do not accept an assignment that requires specific knowledge unless you have the experience required.
The hairstyles of the 1980s was all about volume, colorful accessories and, sometimes, asymmetry. Hairstyles of the '80s were influenced by several trends, including fashions that were influenced by prime-time dramas and popular music. Haircuts in the 1980s included short and layered styles, as well as long, curly masses of highlighted locks.
Short
Short cuts mimicked prime-time soap stars on shows, such as "Knots Landing" and "Dallas." For a professional look, the shorter '80s hair was layered all around, such as the 'do pop star Sheena Easton sported, or had longer layers in the front like the Princess Diana style. Younger kids punked-up the style with a Mohawk with spray-on neon colors in the front. Modern variations of the '80s short cut are worn today, but instead of the fried and died look, the current short style includes romantic curls or high-volume waves.
Medium
The bigger, the better was the '80s hair mantra. In the '80s, one of the most popular movies, "Dirty Dancing," inspired a generation to don the mid-length curly perm. Hair sprayed with a bottle of spray could add at least 3 inches of hair height. Madonna was the epitome of style with her two-toned mid-length teased hair. Professional women wore a longer-layered hairstyle, which usually included bangs -- rhink Linda Evans and Joan Collins from the television drama, "Dynasty."
Long
Longer hair was teased to new lengths in the 1980s. Unlike medium-length hair, which could only be teased so high, longer lengths had endless possibilities. The side ponytail was fastened at the crown of the head with a scrunchie and teased to give a fuller look. If a perm hairstyle full of hairspray wasn't enough body and pouf for you, you could plug in the crimping iron for a party look.
Black Hair
The asymmetrical 'do worn by rap artists such as MC Lyte and Salt-n-Pepa was a hit style for the younger generation. Guys and girls of all ages and hair lengths wore chemically aided curls, called the Jheri Curl. For guys who preferred less chemicals in the hair, boxed cuts were an option. Boxed cuts contained shorter or no hair on the sides. The top was cut into a squared-off shape. Men added a little flair with designs cut into the style.
