You probably admire those who have long hair: What we think hard about is how often we have our hair cut. People with long hair require regular cutting to keep their hair healthy. Every eight weeks is the best choice.
Is it necessary for those with short hair? It’s easier to keep a shorter hairstyle every four to six weeks. The main purpose is to keep the image(形象) well.
Those with coarse(毛糙的) and curly hair are expected to have it cut every twelve weeks. In fact, they don’t have to cut their hair more often. The 12-week period is long enough 80 that the natural oil of skin can travel down to the hair to make it healthier and stronger.
Whether it’s curly or straight, you should get your hair cut every four to six weeks if you have fine hair (细发), according to Fitzgerald. Without regular cutting, your image will be not nice even though the hair is fine and thin.
The last thing to remember is using thermal tools(烫发工具) can give you the curly hair of your dreams. But it takes much more time to repair your hair by cutting off the weak parts.

Dear younger schoolmates,
How is it going? I’d like to give you some useful suggestions for the coming Grade 9 school life.

Next, during class, listen carefully in class. If you have any questions, ask teachers or classmates for help. After class, you must finish your homework carefully and review regularly.
