I'm going back to school in a few days and I'm bored of the way I look. How can I change it up? How can I look better? I want to feel like a completely new person! Also I have a uniform so its should be mainly hair and makeup ideas!

Same for me but I go back next month! I'm starting to curl my hair and having winged eye liner.

Well, make sure you stay true to yourself first of all. Don't change into something just because it'll be cooler. For hair try out cool braids! There's tons of diys online!
Also, bows are super cute to spruce up a look, you can wear them with braids or pony tails or half up half down looks! You can even get one to match your uniform:)

For makeup, play with color! Colored liner on the bottom lash line (not the waterline) looks cute with a neautral eye. When I wanna play with colour but am not confident to I just do a typical neutral eye and mix it in with the brown in my crease! It gives that haze but it isn't so full on.
Playing with your lip colour is always fun, and subtle! Reds, oranges, pinks, purples. There's endless colours! If you're not confident with brights you can try a tinted lip balm to get the effect but more toned down.
Hope I helped :)

I don't really like to use heat on my hair since my hair natural is very pretty but thanks yolande!

Thanks so much brittany! Do you know where I can get some cute inexpensive bows? And I love to wear eyeliner and bright lipcolors but it sometimes makes me feel more insecure since all the girls I go to school with are naturally gorgeous and a lot of them don't even wear an ounce of makeup!

Claire's, icing all those cheap accessory stores! American apparel sells them too but they're kinda over priced tbh. And I get how you feel! That's why I like subtle things for school haha! Coloured mascara is also fun! You can apply though the whole lash or just at the base! Blues and purples bring out brown eyes.

For bows, I just went to forever 21 and got a pack of 2 black bows for $2.50 and a pack of 4 for $3.75. They're inexpensive & cute!

Dye your hair Ombre it's a change but not to much.

Get a hair cut, it can be a trim or completely different! You could also dye your hair or get an ombré. Buy hair chalk and use a different color every day :) change up your makeup style a bit! There are so many things to do :)
