What do girls prefer nice guys or bad boys?

There is this girl about two months ago that wanted to be my friend again as we haven't seen each other in 8 years. We are both 18. She is the daughter of a friend of my mom. We were friends in elementary school.

Here's advice from my mom:
No fake rapping or singing. Be yourself.
Girls like guys who don't talk/text too much.
Don't get to know her too well. Just be her friend. (Until I visit the girl I like this summer if I ever have that chance.)
Say something like hey what's up beautiful (or her first name) how u doing.
Have a normal tone, don't sound harsh.
My mom has said things like "I'm a girl, I know what girls like."
Mom thinks girls like guys who have style, such as fluffy hair with no cuts. With my 0-and-1 haircut she thinks I'll go bald.

Here's advice from my dad:
Keep it sexy, not goofy.
Call her sexy, NOT beautiful.
Act like the bad boy. Get her wet.
Don't ask her childish, immature or stupid questions. Ever. According to my dad, I "screwed up" by asking her a question if she likes pizza or breadsticks better but she did have immediate responses to the question. (My dad still makes fun of this question I asked the girl once whenever I bring up advice for dealing with girls and the girl I like.)*
*In addition, random food questions should be limited to exotic foods such as hummus, rather than international or American food such as pizza or breadsticks.
Don't be too nice or quiet. That's gay. Be loud, clear and straight-forward.
My dad has said things like "I'm a dude, I know! Trust me!"
Dad thinks girls like guys who don't have shitty hair (it better be rad like the 0-and-1 Mom doesn't like and the goatee).

The girl I like refuses to answer hard questions like how was school or what her goal is, but answers weekend plan questions and how the weather is around her area and what she is allergic to (a little allergic to oranges, but nothing much).
