| How to Get Beach Hair Posted: 04 Aug 2018 05:00 PM PDT Beachy, windswept hair might be the most effortless hairstyle of all. It's a popular look worn by everyone from A-listers to the surfer girl next door. Even if you don't live close to the ocean, you can get this cool hairstyle yourself! EditStyling Your Hair - Braid your hair while it's damp and let it air dry for defined waves. Dampen your hair in the shower or mist it with a spray bottle, then separate your hair and make 4-8 braids, depending on how much hair you have. Leave the braids in until your hair is dry, then remove them.[1]
- For the best results, spray your hair with a salt spray to dampen.
- Experiment with different braids like French braids or fishtails to see what kind of curls they create in your hair!
- Twist damp hair into 4 or more buns and let them air dry for extra volume. Spray your hair with a salt or texturizing spray before dividing your hair into 4 or more sections. Twist each section so it forms a bun, then place at least 2 of the buns on top of your head and 2 at the nape of your neck. You can use U-shaped bobby pins to secure the buns so they don't leave creases in your hair.[2]
- If you have thin hair, add a volumizing spray to your roots before putting your hair into buns. Once you have pinned up your hair, blast your roots with your hair dryer until they are dry, and allow the rest of your hair to dry naturally.
- The more buns you do, the smaller your waves will be.
- Create beachy waves with a curling wand. Wrap sections of hair around your wand for 10 seconds each. Once you've finished all of your hair, run your fingers through your hair to make the curls look messier.[3]
- Don't curl the bottom of your hair if you want natural-looking waves.
- For an extra messy look, twist your hair as you wrap it around the wand.
- Alternate the directions of the curl to get a wind-swept look. Curl some sections of your hair towards your face and others away from your face. The sections of hair nearest your face should be curled back away from your face for the most flattering look.[4]
- Pull your hair into a ponytail and curl sections for quick waves. Place your hair in a ponytail as high on your head as possible. Take of your hair and wrap it around your curling wand, starting at the ponytail elastic and working your way down. Repeat this until you've curled the whole ponytail, then take your hair down.[5]
- For natural-looking waves, don't curl the bottom of each piece of hair.
- Twist your hair and go over each twist with a flat iron if you don't have a wand. You can usually do this by dividing your hair into 2 sections, but if you have very thick hair you might want to do 4 sections. Twist the hair as tightly as you can without it curling back on itself, then run your flat iron slowly down each twist. When you unwrap it, tousle the waves with your fingers and spray with hairspray.[6]
- Add light highlights to your hair to mimic a sun-kissed look. If you spend time in the sun, your hair will naturally become lighter. You can get this same look by adding honey-colored or blonde highlights to your hair.
- Try misting your hair with lemon and water and leaving it in the sun, or go to a professional salon!
EditKeeping Your Waves Overnight - Apply a moisturizer to your hair before you style it. Beachy waves are often made with salt sprays, but these can be extremely drying for your hair, just like real sun and saltwater can be. Protect your hair by applying a lightweight moisturizer to the ends of your hair, or to all of your hair if your hair is thick or coarse.[7]
- Having soft, nourished hair will help keep your waves from getting too brittle or crunchy overnight.
- Finish your style with volumizing hairspray. Lock in your look with a hairspray that is strong enough to hold your curls but flexible enough to look natural.[8]
- For best effects, try spraying your hairspray into the air, then walk into it to let it gently mist your hair. Or you can try holding the hairspray about from your hair when you're spraying it.
- Braid your hair or wrap it in a scarf while you sleep. To keep your waves from frizzing as you lay on your pillow, try braiding them before you go to bed. This will add extra curl overnight!
- If you don't want to change the shape of your waves, wrap your hair in a scarf before you lay down. Even with a scarf, they still might be a little flattened the next day.
EditMaking Your Own Salt Spray - Mix warm water and salt in a spray bottle. Pour of warm water and of sea salt into a spray bottle. Shake the bottle well to make sure the sea salt has fully dissolved.[9]
- Add coconut oil and leave-in conditioner. Pour or coconut or argan oil and of leave-in conditioner to the spray bottle. Shake the bottle well to combine the ingredients.[10]
- For extra hold, replace the leave-in conditioner with hair gel.
- Add 1-2 drops of an essential oil if you want a scented spray. You don't have to add any fragrance, but if you do want to, think of a scent that will work well with your tropical waves, like coconut or citrus. If your leave-in conditioner is scented, you may not want to add any additional fragrance.[11]
- Store the mixture in the spray bottle. Salt sprays will last until the water evaporates. If the salt mixture clogs up the spray nozzle, place the nozzle in warm clean water and pump it until it flows freely again.
EditThings You'll Need EditHomemade Salt Spray - Plastic spray bottle
- sea salt
- leave-in conditioner
- coconut or argan oil
- warm water
- 1-2 drops fragrance (if desired)
- Beachy waves look best on layered hairstyles. Opt for long, face-framing layers.

| How to Change the Language on an iPhone Posted: 04 Aug 2018 09:00 AM PDT This wikiHow teaches you how to change the default written language on your iPhone. Your iPhone's language will not always determine the language used in non-Apple apps or on websites, though it should translate most content automatically. Keep in mind that if your iPhone is stuck in a language that reads from right to left, all horizontal screen options will be reversed. - Open your iPhone's Settings . Tap the Settings app icon, which resembles a grey box with gears on it.
- Scroll down and tap General. This option is near a quarter of the way down the "Settings" page, and has a pale grey gear icon to the left of it.
- Scroll down and tap . From the bottom of the screen, it's the seventh option up. Common non-English iterations of this option include the following:[1]
- Chinese - Tap 語言和地區
- Spanish - Tap Idioma y región
- Hindi - Tap भाषा और क्षेत्र
- Arabic - Tap اللغة والمنطقة
- Russian - Tap язык и регион
- Tap . It's the top option on this page. Doing so opens a language selection menu.
- Select a language. Scroll until you find the language that you want to use, then tap it to select it. A blue checkmark (✓) will appear next to the selected language.
- Tap . It's in the top-right corner of the screen.
- Tap when prompted. This blue-text option is at the bottom of the screen. Tapping it will cause your iPhone's screen to go black as it changes the default language.
- Wait for the language to finish changing. Once the language has been changed to your preferred one, you'll be back at the "Language & Region" screen.
- If your phone is stuck in a language that you can identify but can't understand and you can't find the Language & Region option, try typing "language & region" into Google Translate and setting the other side of the translator to the language in question.
- Some languages, such as Arabic, use right-to-left writing instead of left-to-right. If your phone is in a right-to-left language, all horizontal screen options will be reversed (e.g., top-left-corner options will be in the top-right corner, etc.).

| How to Play Buzz Posted: 04 Aug 2018 01:00 AM PDT Buzz is a classic mathematics game that doesn't require any special equipment. To play buzz, all you need are 3 people who know how to multiply and who have some time. The classic buzz game is fairly simple and best suited for younger children who are learning how to multiply. The more advanced version of buzz should be played with teens or children who know their multiplication tables. This mental-math game is the perfect way to practice math skills and can be played virtually anywhere! EditPlaying the Classic Buzz Game - Sit in a circle with 3 or more people. Buzz requires teamwork to play and win. Ask friends or family members if they want to play and find a quiet place where you can start the game.[1]
- Set a goal for your team. The goal of buzz is to count up to a certain number while following the rules. Each person piggybacks off the last and counts up from the number 1. For beginners, a goal of 22 or 29 is good.[2]
- Start counting in a clockwise direction. Pick a person to start the game and start counting from the number 1. The person to the left of that person then says the number 2, and so on. Continue going around the circle until you reach the number 6.[3]
- Say "buzz" instead of saying 7 or any multiple of 7. A multiple of 7 is the product of any number multiplied by 7 and includes 7, 14, 21, 28, and so on. Instead of saying 7, the person after 6 has to say buzz or the game is over and everyone has to restart from the beginning.[4]
- Change the direction that you count after saying buzz. Once you reach 7 and someone says buzz, continue the count, but in a counter-clockwise direction. Then, when you reach 14 and someone says buzz, change the direction again and count in a clockwise direction. Continue alternating each time someone says buzz.[5]
- Continue playing until you reach your goal. If anyone in the team counts out of place or forgets to say buzz, the game should be restarted. Continue counting until you've reached the goal that you set at the beginning of the game.[6]
EditPlaying Advanced Buzz - Get 3 or more people to sit in a circle. Buzz is a team game that requires 3 or more people to play. The more people that there are, the more challenging the game becomes.[7]
- Set a number that you want to count to. Advanced buzz is more difficult to play than the traditional game, so you should set a more conservative goal like 14 or 15 when you first start playing. If you're playing with people who have good math skills and feel confident, you can set a higher goal.[8]
- Count sequentially, starting from 1, in a clockwise direction. Choose a person to start the count and begin counting sequentially from the number 1. The person to the left of the person who started the count should say 2.[9]
- Say "buzz" when the number reaches 3 or a multiple of 3. Instead of saying 3, the third person should say the word buzz. If they say 3 accidentally, then the game is over and should be restarted. Then, as you continue to count, any multiple of 3, such as 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and so on, should be replaced by the word buzz.[10]
- Change the direction of the count anytime someone says buzz. Continue counting sequentially but in the opposite direction each time the word buzz is said. This adds another element to the game that keeps players on their feet.[11]
- Replace any multiple of 7 with the word buzz. Instead of saying 7 or any multiple of 7, you should say buzz. Multiples of 7 include 7, 14, 21, 28, and is the product of any number multiplied by the number 7. After you say buzz to replace the number 7, the rotation of the count should change to the opposite direction.[12]
- The count should be "1, 2, buzz, 3, 4, 5, 6, buzz."
- Say buzz instead of saying numbers divisible by 11. Any 2-digit number that has the same numbers for both digits is divisible by 11. These numbers include 11, 22, 33, 44, and so on. You won't come across as many numbers as you do with multiples of 3 or 7, but it will add another layer of difficulty to the game. Again, just like with the other numbers, saying buzz here should also change the direction of the count.[13]
- In total players have to say buzz for multiples of 3, 7, and 11.
- Continue counting until your group reaches their goal. Every time someone messes up, restart the game from the number 1 and start the count over. Continue restarting the game until you reach the pre-determined goal that you set at the beginning of the game.[14]
