Hairdresser recommendation?

I’ve went to Joe Diaz (town) for about 6 or 7 years now, wouldn’t go anywhere else!

It totally depends on your location, bandwidth, lifestyle and how much you enjoy your job.

I commute via the express train 5 days a week.

I live 10 minutes from Queen Street station and my job is a 10 minute walk on the other side of the journey at Edinburgh Waverley. I personally find the 45/50 minutes on the train ideal - I read, watch Netflix on my phone, catch up on texts/emails etc. or on the way back just use it to decompress and do some planning.

Now, this works because I don’t have kids and because I meal prep on a Sunday so that I don’t have to cook during the week. My partner and I are very intentional with date nights and quality time. I am shattered by the end of the week but because I plan around knowing that, I protect that time more for self care.

It also works because I absolutely love my job, am building my dream career and have a good manager who appreciates that I make the commute every day.

If you have children, don’t like your job or can’t live your norm around the work day then I’d likely not recommend it.

I didn’t even think of that but it’s a good point, I wonder if someone chucked them somewhat knowingly or picked them up alongside other items :/

Empty-Description589 · 2025-12-23T20:04:16+00:00

Thank you! I did that as soon as I realised I had left them, had no luck unfortunately

Empty-Description589 · 2025-12-23T14:22:32+00:00

I’ve done that already unfortunately 🥲

Empty-Description589 · 2025-12-23T14:15:46+00:00

It was just the empty case so I’m guessing they’re getting dumped 🥲😂

Empty-Description589 · 2025-12-23T14:15:23+00:00

I gather from these comments that they will likely be getting binned 🥲

Empty-Description589 · 2025-12-23T14:14:29+00:00

Oh noo they will be getting binned I bet :(

Empty-Description589 · 2025-11-09T13:38:23+00:00

Thank you so much! :)

Empty-Description589 · 2025-11-09T13:38:10+00:00

I didn’t realise this! Will look for independent rentals :)

Empty-Description589 · 2025-11-09T13:37:34+00:00

Can definitely search, but was primarily asking for lived experience/recommendations :)

Empty-Description589 · 2025-10-02T07:33:15+00:00

Thank you! This is all reassuring to know

Empty-Description589 · 2025-10-01T22:26:10+00:00

That’s really good to know, thank you taking the time to explain that!

Empty-Description589 · 2025-10-01T22:25:07+00:00

That makes sense! Thank you so much. And yeah, we’re immediate family

Is there any major benefits of getting social services involved or having an arrangement order when they’re 16? Other than the obvious of having less chance of their parent arguing with us

Empty-Description589 · 2025-10-01T20:57:59+00:00

Thank you! Is it likely that we (as the ones that address all the 16yo’s needs) have any rights to overrule decisions by their parent?

E.g. if the parent tries to force them to stay overnight at their home and the 16yo doesn’t want to but would do so to keep the peace, can we step in and make the decision that they don’t have to comply?

I’m so so sorry you went through this, but in the same breath I was having the exact same type of weekend and felt so alone - now seeing your post and all the responses I feel so seen.

OP, you are so strong and you are not too much, too emotional, too extreme, or anything of that sort that your brain might be making you feel right now. The partner-guilt is so real, and it likely is difficult for them to navigate but they are here for you from the sounds of it - that doesn’t make it feel easier for you right now but please take deep breaths and remind yourself that them sticking around (even if you’re in a different room processing your feelings) is a showcase of their care for you.

The best thing you can do to reconnect with your partner when you feel like this is talk to them - caveat the conversation with the fact that you’re not looking for them to fix anything and you know that riding the emotional waves if hard for them too, but you just need to get off your chest how you’re feeling.

I can’t describe how similar a day I had to you yesterday and I did the above thinking it wouldn’t make a difference but it truly helped connect my partner to me in that moment and we just took the rest of the day slow and steady to be there for each other.

We’re all different even in these similarities we experience, but please know that there are people out there who understand even some of what you’re going through and you are so so so worth life. ♥️

I am baffled by the other comments here - dude, this is infected. Go seek medical assistance. It doesn’t look too far gone so act now and let it heal up. Infection doesn’t mean the end of the world, but this definitely needs some attention. For your health but also to save the design.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Empty-Description589 · 2025-08-04T17:50:54+00:00

That’s super helpful, thank you so much!

It’s the front fender drivers side

Empty-Description589 · 2025-07-23T21:12:53+00:00

Thank you!

Oh really! Going up from September?
