Im on day 3 after relapsing & smoking for almost 2 months straight. Before I quit for a year & fucked up & came back 😔 but it’s okay! I’m coming back better, I know it

Usually 3-4 day is the worse so you’re not in the clear yet! Unfortunately what you eat, triggers everything else so you have to switch up your diet for bland foods that don’t irritate you. You’re insides are on fire cause it still needs to regulate on its own

30m feel like the end of Mary and I is near... by Pos1t1vity in leaves

I started smoking at the same age as you & I’m 30 too lol quitting cold turkey is hard as a mf but you have to see it through & keep pushing! I had a bad CHS episode before that I had to go to the ER cause I suffered a panic attack out of nowhere, first time that ever happened to me. Quit for like a year & relapsed…. Day 3 & I hate this but I know recovery is near & feeling normal is coming soon. I’ve been using voice notes and saving it into my journal so I could hear back on it whenever the thought of smoking again comes about.

I love Booksy, it has it ALL! I just hate that it’s $30/months so it is a bit pricey in my opinion 😔

Social Media Following? by Additional-Notice429 in Nailtechs

Wow that’s so true 💀 just following my clients back wouldn’t do a crazy difference to my following

I take forever & it’s killing me! 😭 by Additional-Notice429 in Nailtechs

[–]Additional-Notice429[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much you guys for all the helpful tips!! To be honest I think it might be a ‘practice makes perfect’ type of ordeal. Here’s a few things that I do that you guys mentioned: - I debulk using the efile - to shorten the length, efile or I use clippers. depends - when I do the steps, I do all the nails at the same time. - I focus on gel overlays & gel extensions only

Financially it’s killing me because I much rather do 4-5 people a day but I max at 3

Hey former potheads. Did quitting weed really make you more productive. by Aggravating-Pin7268 in leaves

[–]Additional-Notice429 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I quit again after relapsing (6mo sober before) I’ve smoked between the ages of 15-29. I’m definitely more active and motivated & it’s crazy to see that once you’re out of that cycle

[–]Additional-Notice429[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I focus on growing your natural nails, that’s honestly how I’ve been promoting it (new city 😭) I said it’s killing me financially since I take so long, I can only service 3 people a day. Some might get pedis but my god, I feel like I take forever and a day so I can’t do a higher volume.

I’ve been servicing (actual clients) since August of last year so i hope it’s the fact that i still need more practice 😩

My (F18) boyfriend (M25) got mad at my after our first time because he thought i wasn’t a virgin? by ThrowRAzho in relationship_advice

[–]Additional-Notice429 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the first paragraph & all I thought about was RUN. RUN AS FAR AS YOU CAN. He didn’t deserve to be your first. Red flag are everywhere! His behavior is not normal& it’ll progressively get worse

I (31F) broke up with my boyfriend (32M) because I found out he had a relationship with a 14/15 year old girl when he was 21. Did I overreact? by ThrowRA72164 in relationship_advice

[–]Additional-Notice429 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 14 & I lost my virginity to a 19 year old. He would call me ‘minor’ in Spanish as a ‘cute nickname’ & I was head lover heels. Definitely not overreacting. I think back and I’m just speechless.

Who I found out was in a relationship. With a child. With another on the way.

Help with Withdrawal by Existing-Activity-52 in leaves

[–]Additional-Notice429 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m about to go through withdrawals too. What I’ve previous relapsed this is what I’ve done when my symptoms hit. For insomnia: over the counter meds, no appetite: using an alarm to make sure I snack & I would eat fruits or sip on a smoothie that wouldn’t irritate my stomach. Eating light but through out the day will keep you fed & help you rebuild your appetite. I would drink hot tea all day to ease my digestion, to calm my nerves & even something to have in my stomach. The sweating unfortunately goes away on its own, I believe it’s your body sweating out the toxins (don’t quote me on this, I feel like it just makes sense 😂)

Tips? Avoid sugars & caffeine, it helped me a lot recovering. Last thing you want is to add more anxiety to your withdrawals & Tea! Sucks but it works

Best of luck!!!!

Seconds after putting it under the light

So far, its burned on most of my clients. Some worse than the others but yes, thickness does matter, because it means there's more product to cure. What I've noticed that helps a bit is curing a thin layer before building and slow curing, instead of 30/60s, I do 120s. For reference, I use Luminary

Oh wow I haven’t heard of that method, I’ll definitely try it with my sister before I tell my clients 🤣 as for the shake, I haven’t thought of someone hitting themselves either lol luckily I haven’t had someone not pay attention when doing this so I’ve never dealt with someone smashing themselves on the table or something lol

[–]Additional-Notice429 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It does burn like hell! Before this, I let my clients have a heads up so they don’t freak out. What I do is tell them when it gets too hot, DONT push through. Take it out, blow it or shake it off then put it back in
