A little 援助 (enjo, help) from 私の友達たち

友 is a second-grade 漢字, an image of two hands coming together:  "friend."
抜, take out:                            I take this as the hand on the left trying to extract
                                                 something held by two hands on the right.
髪 (かみ), hair:                        Long + hair + two hands/friend.  A good friend is
                                                 one who'll tell you, Your hair's getting too long, pal,
                                                 get it cut.
爰 is 表外漢字.  Between the top hand and the bottom is a two-knotted rope.  It's supposed to mean something like bring together (which will happen if those two hands both pull that rope).
暖 (あたた.かい), warmth:   I am drawn to the sun because of its warmth.
援, help:                               A helping hand draws people together.  
媛, beautiful woman:           A woman who is attract-ive.
緩, relax/slacken:                Draw the two ends of the thread together and it becomes slack.
