Just because some things say not tested on animals,
many companies would rather pay the false advertising fees, than deal with half their customers not buying their products because they do test on animals.
I can't go to prom, and it is my senior year!
My job is crappy, working two-three days a week if I am lucky at a 8.75prhr rate. Trying to save up for a prom dress, and shoes, and ass. and all the above that you need to look good on prom, I can't afford. I am 18 and paying bills, and prom is so out of the question for me. BUT! I am always cruelty-free. It is my way of life. But everyone else going, HAVEFUN!
the hair product line called "Enjoy" is also not tested on animals and its great for use on colored or chemically treated hair. I would know... I use it :]
There is such a thing as Vegan silk, they wait until the silk worm... well moth now leaves the cocoon then boil it. :] no death involved..... just a long wait.
Awwwe nugget is ADORABLE
i wish i had a date liek that when i was a senior haha ;D
This is an awesome blog and hooray for all companies stopping testing on animals! :DD
These are some great tips.
It's a good thing that I had a formal last year and I had a satin dress and made sure when I got my makeup done, it wasn't animal tested.

Heyy i have 8th grade dance coming up in may, And i am gettin everything that is not tested on animals, Its going to be fun nd i wont be mad at myself,because i will know that i didnt hurt any animals while i had fun=]]
Wow this is nice my sisters prom is tomorrow but she won't listen to me i guess being 12 and having her be 17 makes all the difference ♥ PETA2 to death ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ "]
Kasey,
There is an organization called Becca's Closet, started by a girl who wanted everyone to be able to attend prom. They will help you buy a prom dress. Check it out at www.BeccasCloset.org. Hope it helps.
Cheers,
Glenn
I wish I'd read this before I went to my Year 12 ball (I'm Australian, we call it a ball here, not a prom) because my dress is made out of silk and I never made the connection :(
I hope my boyfriend's suit wasn't made out of wool, but it's not like he'd care anyway, he thinks vegetarians and animal rights activists in general are all hypocrites because we apparently all care more about animals than people >:|
Naww, nugget is so cute, can't believe I ever ate him! Eugh! Vegetarian pride :) I've been a vegetarian for five years and I've never regretted it for a second :) Cruelty free!
But I digress. I hope one day silk is a thing of the past, and EVERYTHING is cruelty free. Give it a couple of hundred years, and people will be saying, God, can you believe people used to wear and eat animals? How disgusting!
i bought TRESemme hair products since they aren't tested on animals and my mom ran out of her products so she used mine. she said they work better than the animal tested ones so now she's buying products that aren't tested on animals INCLUDING MAKPE UP :D which makes me feel so cool. like i really made a difference in some way.
honestly im new at this vegitarian thing but its soo nice to see other teens that care as much as i do now if only we can get the word out to our schools that whould be excelent
that's so cute! nugget's mustache brings all the girls to the yard! lol

"And guys, ditch the itchy old wool suits. What is this—1979?"
Hey thats not cool. 1979 must of been nice and quaint compared to our get up and go go modern world of today.
And even though wool isn't needed with the alternatives that are available how again was wool linked to 1979? :)
