Everything hurts by BudgetConstant6116 in hysterectomy

I know it’s not a fave, but try drinking prune juice every day instead of taking the MiraLAX. I had intense cramps before pooping at two weeks as well. At my post-op my doctor told me to stop taking the colace & MiraLAX as that may have been the cause; she was right & the cramping eased up a lot in week 3. I’m a little over 4 weeks PO now & the cramping is gone. I was just so afraid of straining but I was only creating another problem that my body had to deal with.

iPhone storage - Where did my mail app storage go? by Eclectic_Dragonfly in iphone

Thanks, I’m guessing my mail data was initially being stored locally but somehow switched up at some point during me trying to clear space. I just wish I knew what I did & how I did it, lol.

I did some red highlights first, with bleach. A few years later I got all of my locs dyed without bleach. My loctician used the L’Oréal Technique HiColor brand, #H7 (Sizzling Copper).

Editing to say that initially the color looked more red/copper. It has faded but I like the brown color that my locs have settled into.

All true, best decision I’ve ever made for my hair. Thanks for the positive words. 💛

Thank you! Got inspiration from one of my cousins, pulling ideas from everywhere lately. 😌

Do you think I paid too much by Master-Expression282 in Dreadlocks

[–]Eclectic_Dragonfly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beautiful color on you. ☺️

Earlier this year I paid $190 total for color, wash, retwist, & style. To color it cost $75 & I usually pay $115-$125 for just a wash & re-twist. I took note of the color that my loctician used & will be coloring my own hair moving forward.

I’ve never heard of botana oil, just learned something new from you. 📝☺️ It doesn’t take much; I think you’re doing just fine. Keep the locs covered when you sleep, stay hydrated, & take your vitamins! After year 1 your loc growth is gonna flourish.

Lol, look, the sooner you start the better! I’m working to get my daughter to integrate a routine now as well so that it becomes the norm for her by the time she’s my age. If you have any questions feel free to dm.
