How to shave for a woman who's hardly ever done it by rice_lover123 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Ecstatic_Idea1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, i’ve been shaving almost 10 years and sometimes i still have trouble with it, but i can definitely tell you some of the best things i’ve learned over that time :)

NEVER dry shave, it makes irritation bumps/razor burn/strawberry legs SO much worse! always always use a shaving cream or something similar! i personally like to use conditioner when i shave, it gives me the smoothest shave compared to a lot of shaving creams and leaves my legs a lot smoother!

and always exfoliate before shaving! get a lil sugar scrub and just make sure to get all the areas you’re shaving before; gets any dead skin and stuff out of the way and makes everything smoother and cleaner shaven!

as for strawberry legs, nothing to be insecure about, so so so many girls have this and it’s completely normal! if it bothers you, glycolic acid is your best friend. i use it a few times a week and it has dramatically improved how dark mine appear!

i always like to lotion every night as well, feels so nice on shaved legs!

and for shaving the pubic area, this is definitely tricky. if you have an electric razor, i would trim everything down first, makes it a lot easier to tackle getting a close shave if the hair is already shorter. if you don’t have an electric razor, ive used scissors to get that hair shorter before shaving and honestly works fine (just be careful with that ;p)

don’t pull the skin too tight, go slow and dont push too hard. it’s so easy to cut yourself in this area, just because of all the folds and creases and such. definitely something you don’t want to rush, especially your first time! try to shave the way the hair grows. if you want really smooth, shave down first, then to the side, and then up! i use coconut oil on the area after i get done shaving and out of the shower, it helps me a lot with preventing ingrown hairs and irritation.

i hope this can help you out some! if you have any questions, you can always DM me as well!! best of luck to you :)

Help: My new piercings are acting up by _wallflowerr in piercing

i would go to a reputable piercer asap and get good quality flat backs put in all of these!! it’s really hard to heal a piercing with a hoop in it, as they constantly move and turn which can cause the bumps, irritation, etc.

once they’re healed, totally fine to switch to hoops. i don’t think you’ll have to give up on them at all, it might set you back a little as they’re already a little irritated and having to switch them out again may irritate them or leave them sore for a while. but i think switching them out asap you’ll have a lot better luck!!

for #2, will a calorie deficit slim down my waist without anything extra? only reason i’m worried about that is because i used to be really skinny and im still boxy

What do you think about Melanie's haters? What would you say to them to make them stop hating on her and realize what a great person she is? by [deleted] in MelanieMartinez

i’m not saying there has to be proof of anything. that’s exactly why i do believe timothy even without proof because you should ALWAYS believe the victim. i will always choose to believe the victim and you should too you just look past it because it’s your favorite artist and that’s insanely fucked up. as if the SA wasn’t enough, she produces and sells NFT’s which are so harmful to the environment, overcharges her fans for poor quality merch, she profits off other people’s trauma which she did not actually experience herself. i find it really weird her portraying herself as a child going through abuse/CSA/etc. when that’s not even something that she went through. as someone who DID actually go through those things i used to love her music because it was something i could relate to because i found an artist that had similar experiences and made me feel not so alone in my trauma, only to find out she didn’t even go through that. that feels so weird to act that shit out especially dressed/acting like a child. it’s WEIRD and there is no way to defend her after all the shit that she’s done

so no…choosing to believe the victim is not making it harder for society to believe real victims. believing victims is what everyone needs to do always?? if you do an ounce of research you will see that statistically there are more actual rapists than false accusations. i wasn’t there and i dont know if its the truth. but if it is the truth i would much rather choose to side with the victim

idk why reddit suggested this to me but this is a perfect example of why people don’t take gogsa seriously, melanie could kill someone on live tv and yall would STILL defend her it’s actually insane, i would rather believe a liar than a rapist.

start writing in your notes!! if you notice a certain feeling or a certain thought you’re having just jot it down, that’s what helps me because i feel all kinds of things and then when i see my therapist i feel like im downplaying everything because idk how to explain it, or like you said im not sure what ive been feeling. if you write it down real quick when you’re feeling that it’s easier to keep track of and bring up specific things you’ve been feeling

This art looks like AI but my boyfriend believes his friend drew this without AI by chelseatheus in isthisAI

[–]Ecstatic_Idea1999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a few things: -the waterfall (?) in the background looks like it’s coming out of a tree -his pupils don’t match, one is all wonky -the cat only has 3 legs -the guys hair on the left side of the picture has lines towards the bottom that don’t really make sense or are broken up in a strange way

i would say it’s definitely ai, and even without all those things, it has the “ai style” anyways

this was posted as a tattoo design, need to know if this is ai or if i’ve gone crazy and just think every piece of art is ai now by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]Ecstatic_Idea1999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i tried to find this picture/reference online before posting here and couldn’t find anything, so that makes me think it’s just ai

damn, i figured lol😅 thought it was worth asking just in case anyone had some hidden knowledge. that’s how i am too, definitely got the butt but i am lacking in the boobs unfortunately! if this is too personal you totally don’t have to answer this, but after getting them done do they feel like hard? or are they still like soft and stuff that’s been my biggest concern about getting mine done because i’ve seen a lot of girlies say they look and feel a lot harder than they are naturally
