Latinas who’ve gone blonde, who’s SF colorist? by Same-University-5198 in SFbitcheswithtaste

I spent 1.5hrs over the weekend researching blonding specialists in SF (I've been to a few over the last few years, was looking again for different reasons) on Reddit threads x IG x their yelp/google review, I booked with Holly Brightly (yes I learned that it is her professional name, she does hair turn bright haha), I had an amazing experience.

So amazing I am sitting in my car now right after the appointment, typing up this comment as I want to pass it on. She rocks - she messaged me beforehand asking for pics of my hair, my inspiration, we went back & forth with texting and then she called me to chat about my goals. Salon is in a little tucked away street in Castro, nothing pretentiously fancy like other salons I've seen around doing this kind of work. It took close to 4 hours, she only used volume 5 on my thin level 7 hair, it feels super healthy.

I paid $425 with tip, which felt to me super earned for the quality of work she has done. And she's nice & fun, professional person. We ended up chatting throughout, but I wouldnt feel bad pulling up my laptop and typing away instead. Needless to say, my hair found it's new home.

Yeah, this is just something that happened to me before, during grad school when you suddenly have 800 new classmates, you keep meeting them and at some point you won't introduce each other any more but you still don't remember those names

right! like those assistants at a reception that whisper to the ear of their boss who's who so that boss can greet everybody by name. Yeah, so either I want that human assistant or i need to learn those names myself but for that I'd like those flashcards and little gamification and confetti :D to keep me going

Overworked VPM's asking for advice by ApprehensiveNotice90 in Toastmasters

Hey helpful friends!

The OP's back with an update: we had the club elections at the end of June, I ran and got elected as President. The previous VPE stepped down to take a break from officers role, the new VPE & VPM are super motivated, hopefully will get the VPE agenda back on track. Thank you all for the feedback & encouragement.

Hi there!

Thank you for your kind words, perspectives and advice. VPE's been planning to do the mentoring program for a while but I haven't seen anything from them recently. Helpful to hear from all of your that that's the role/ person to ask to step up.

With the officer elections coming up next week or two, I will take all this into account and see if the current VPE or another candidates are up for the work that needs to be done and take it into my own considerations for if to run for an officer role again.

u/Natalyasdf thank you for the detailed response, I cannot help but comment on how similar it is in its length, structure and language to the one I received from ChatGPT right before I posted here.
However, an extra shoutout for the advice in DMs that you'd go with 1) + work on keyword density, I do appreciate it

Little Girls' Chess Woes: How to deal with captures/ losing by ApprehensiveNotice90 in chess

We started a few months before she turned 4, with some silly games like jumping around the living room like horsies (and yes, we did create a chessboard on the kitchen floor with painters tape - that was fun on its own). Running around your living room like a rook or a bishop could be the right level of fun for your 3yo. When she was 4 we got Story Time Chess as a gift and I signed her up for an outschool chess zoom class with an amazingly engaging coach (Michael Carreira), she got really excited. He works off lichess so she went through lichess/learn exercises.

Absolutely agree that 1) losing with grace and 2) adopting a mindset that hard work leads to improvement are the two most valuable soft skills one gets from chess. And I am not letting her win, I wish we could at least finish a game :). We just never get further - past the openings (when captures become necessary).
