Hi,
Lots of them actually. It will take some time to fully explore this site.

Yep, some cool stuff there, even though much of those is so old now, a lot of those kids are well over drinking age by now (in the USA that's 21). I wonder how many of them have grown up to visit Betty's later, or other places like us. A lot of people tend to think we just get a lot of older people here. but that's because after being around for 20 years, many of our regular users that actually post something are older. We do get a lot of college-age visitors too. Although it's vacation time for most students now, the rest of the year on a busy day or night up to about 1/4 of our visitors are showing a university ISP. Unlike universities in other countries, most USA universities do not block Betty's or our stories.
I can't understand the point of some of the common makeover videos on u-tube where they spend the time & effort to make a very long video showing every little brush stroke & dab of applying makeup, doing nails, & doing hair or putting on a wig, if at the end of it all, they only show a very brief glimpse or just a few seconds of the completed makeover. What's the point of showing off the long job, if you barely show hardly any of the completed work?
I know some of you make-up guys on u-tube will eventually read this, or at least spread my most unpopular comments around. So how about it guys? Why show all the hard work you spent to make your face pretty in a video, just to skip or spend very little time on the most important part... your finished project?
There's got to be close to a billion videos, pictures, text, articles, magazines, & books on applying makup, doing hair, & wigs. But very few showing good looking guys looking good at it after they're done.
Most of us like a pretty dress too, but very few of us are gonna watch videos of the factory or seamstress making the entire dress all the time. We just want to see the dress, not every stitch & stage of it's assembly. 99% of us already know how a dress is made or don't care how it's made.
Except showing how makeup, hair, & nails are done is worse, because there's already a billion sources of how to do it out there. I'm not against it, but you kids are spending way to much video time just showing how it's done (and almost all of you do it almost the same way), & very little video time showing off your finished work. The biggest most important part of the video should be how good it all looks after the work is done & showing off the finished project. Instead you u-tubers are skipping the finished view or your work, or only giving us a brief or short blurry glimpse of it.
Some of the background music is fun, but easy cheap access to music is centuries old (player pianos, organs, music boxes, & musicians were around before records & CDs).
If you're so good at makeup kids, spend some minutes on showing off how good it looks when you're done. Let us scrutinize & decide how good it was by viewing the finished work, instead of every tedious brushstroke of the makeup brush, & eyeliner. It's not rocket science folks. Show it off & looking good after you're done, that's the hard part.
And while we're on the topic u-tubers, why spend all that time & money on all sorts of exotic makeup, & hair products only to make a long video of it wearing a plain t-shirt? Surely if you could spend all that money on all those products & chemicals for your face, hair, & nails, you could spend just a little bit on some pretty clothes, or at least a pretty top, shorts, or skirt.
I lost everything in a fire a few years back. I'm broke, starving, at risk my electricity getting shut off or being kicked out for paying my rent very late every month. But even I have a few pretty things to wear.
