Taking Care of Your Hair: Protective Styling

We have all been in the situation where you just ended a relationship and have no idea what to do next.  Breaking up can be difficult but here are 10 things all girls should do in order to move on.

            1. Strip Your Sheets/ Change Up Your Room.

            Buying all new bed room sheet set gets rid of the horrible bedroom energy you and your ex once shared.  Give your self a fresh start with a fresh new look. Take down all the “he gave me this” and “remember when” things you guys once shared.

            2. Work it Out

            Pump up your mood with a work-out.  Take a Zumba or boot camp class at your gym finished with yoga to relax your mind.  Run some laps on the track or just dance in your room to your favorite Beyonce song.  Just get your blood flowing and your mind off things.  Think about the amazing body you will have in a few weeks if you keep it up. 

3. Indulge at the Makeup Counter/ Go Shopping

            Updating your look will help you feel sexy and desirable again. Every girl just wants to go back to feeling like her good ol’ self and a new look will do just that. 

4. Obsess Over the Breakup…for 15 Minutes.

            Obsessing over something, especially a break up is the natural way our brains deal with change. You have to allow yourself to freak out for a little bit. Allowing time for yourself to think about your break up in a healthy way will allow you to gain control over the situation.

5. Go on a 30-day Cleanse.

            No not a 30 day diet but 30 days of no contact with your ex.  You’ll get over it faster with zero contact and you can prove to yourself that you can survive without him.

6. Hit Delete.

            When you spy on him through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram you are only making things worse.  Unfriend and unfollow him.  You don’t need a reminder of him every time you get on a social network.

7. Let Your friends Know What You Need.

            Whether you want to have a single girls night on the town to look for a new potential boyfriend or just simply get out the house to the movies, make sure your friends are clear on how they can help you deal. 

8. Boost Your Ego.

           

            Do something you never done before, completing just one difficult task will help remind you that you’re pretty darn awesome.

9. Get a Pet.

            No one is advising you go out the day after your break up and get a pit-bull, unless you wanted to.  But get something small like a fish, just something you can show your affection to. 

10. Take a Fabulous trip.

            Take a small vacation to maybe the Jersey Shore or even Atlantic City, nothing to big unless you can afford it.  The key is to give yourself time to feel like crap after a breakup so that way you can truly enjoy your getaway once you finally leave.
