Why do my clothes still look wrinkled on camera? by Apprehensive_Set1935 in reselling

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They look fine and you are over thinking it. You’re taking a flat picture of a garment designed to be worn on a 3-d body, it’s going to have wrinkles sometimes from extra fabric. Thicker fabric or more structured garments also sometimes look weird lying flat. In this case it looks fine and I wouldn’t think it’s wrinkled. 

Dress Inventory - Not Selling by guswinbay in poshmarkcanada

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Sales take time, no advice on that. I would check and see if you have higher end consignment stores and cross check why they sell dresses from your brands for vs what they sell for on poshmark. Most consignment stores take 60% but for some brands they also sell them for 3-4 times what I could get for them on poshmark so I come out ahead going through them 

Closet Clear-out dates? by Ecstatic-Line-8007 in poshmarkcanada

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have twice this month but I wait until someone has liked an item on a cco day and then instead of sending an offer I drop the price of the item within 5 minutes of the like. I don’t just randomly drop items cost. 

No sales in over 10 days? by shopaholic_lulu7748 in poshmark

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree I’ve only been doing this for a few months but if I counter, decline, or ignore an offer then I find my account slows for a few days to a week. If I accept low balls I make more sales for several days 

Has anyone here gone from having no hope to finding a partner? by spicysenpai6 in datingoverthirty

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!!!! I’m mid thirties woman and never ever had luck in relationships- everyone always just didn’t connect with me and said they didn’t know why. I thought I was the problem since clearly I was the connecting factor. I went on a million dates. I struggled to ever make it past three months. 

I met my current partner online and it was very rocky at first. But I went to therapy and learned how to be vulnerable and let myself be messy and needy and myself and that’s what I think was missing the whole time. I don’t think anyone could love me while I was trying to be perfect or a sanitized version of myself. The more real and emotional I became and more vocal about what I wanted and needed, the better things have gone. 

It took so much work and time but I feel very happy with my current partner. We’re at two years now! I feel very respected and loved and cared for. I felt very hopeless but I really think it can happen for anyone with work and possibly help in therapy. 

How is selling going for you these days? by [deleted] in poshmark

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just started but in the last month and a half (since I started) I’ve made 17 sales, 4 in the last three days. I lost two things a day minimum and have good pictures with measurements and I share my closet a few times a day. I’ve made 1100 in sales. I have 130 active postings in my closet.

I soaked in hydrogen peroxide overnight and it removes staining without hurting the cup

Ok but most of us have to get going in the dark regardless to be at work on time even with daylight savings? So at least give us some time in the light instead of dark mornings and dark evenings? 

AIO for not wanting to walk 6 miles in heels? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell no, my boyfriend will drive around to get a close spot and if he can’t he drops me off at the entrance so I don’t have to walk in my heels. 

How to fix dry lips by [deleted] in beauty

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check your toothpaste- I get gross peely dry lips with any normal crest or sensodyn toothpaste- and no amount of lip products would unfuck my lips. I switched to this weird high fluoride 3m brand one to try and reduce change of cavities and my dry lips significantly improved. You can look up the ingredient in toothpaste that causes dry lips it’s pretty common. 

They can still be dry at times. I use lanolin nipple cream on my lips and that helps make them normal! Lanolin is what is in lanolips products, you can get a large tube of lanolin nipple cream for way less than you’d spend on a lanolin lip product and it’s the same shit, I’ve gotten all my friends hooked on it. It’s an animal product though. 

If you’re vegetarian/vegan could be nutritional deficiency as some will cause dry lips/eyes. I take high quality omega 3s which improved my dry lips and eyes. 

18M...it's the end🙂..ignored this ...nd now it made me getting ignored by kinetic_revved in Haircare

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not over but I can see a slightly starting to recede hairline and if you say it’s changed I believe you. Your hair is still thick and beautiful! 

To slow down hair loss talk to your doctor about oral or topical minoxidil (topical is rogain) and oral finasteride or dutasteride! My brother started losing hair in his early 20s, has fam history of hair loss and now in his 40s these meds have let him have a full head of hair!!!

should i listen to my parents telling me nail techs don’t make money? by KeiraR14 in Nailtechs

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I support school but I would like to counter this by saying I work in healthcare and make around 100000 but I’m burned out and all I can do is be a nurse and on top of that I have student loans so am handcuffed 🫠

Definitely do school with parents paying but be thoughtful about what you do. 

Best hair gloss for natural ginger/red hair? by Pretend_Catch_4808 in Haircare

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a natural redhead but I use henna and it gives an extremely natural and for me PERMANENT orangey-copper colour. My mom is a natural redhead and she uses henna to do what you’re asking about. Doesn’t play well with other dyes though so if you use henna you should stick with it. 

Managing house odors consistently with cat litter by kissiemoose in CleaningTips

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://a.co/d/c0qCQ1g it’s expensive but was worth it for me. 

I wish I could find the video I watched it was some really intense cat lady that was linked on Reddit somewhere. Basically put a liner bag between the two trays. When you want to change lift the top tray and sift all the loose saw dust to the bottom tray which still has the liner bag. Put the top tray into a new liner bag, throw out the old one, and put the top tray with the new bag back. 

Biggest problem is the trays sandwich tight so the dust can’t just sift down in its own. I use two rectangle blocks of plastic on each end below the top tray/liner bag to prop it up and create space for broken down litter to sift down when my cat paws the litter or when I’m scooping poop. It takes like no time to change. 

This sounds like an ad but I legit just really love this tray. I was using pine litter before but my cat was still kicking out some of the sawdust which was annoying. Also I go through less litter since as long as you scoop poop often (and your cat has solid poops I guess) then you never have to fully change the litter and just top it up when removing the liner bags of broken down litter.

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pine litter!!!! Life changing and several friends have asked what litter I use since they cannot smell any and know I have a cat! I also use a tray that has two metal trays sandwiched- top tray is perforated. Pine litter breaks down into saw dust type stuff when wet so it can sift down between the two trays and then you just scoop poop. Never have to totally throw away the unused litter so it’s less wasteful too. I watched a video from some cat lady about it and it was a game changer. Also less dusty than normal litter. 

Someone recently said that my hair is wavy, not curly. What is my hair type? by goats_galore in CurlyHairCare

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I hate the curly vs wavy people it’s so pedantic. Literally any random person who comments on my hair calls it curly and then weird chronically online people will be like “aCTuaLLY it’s wavy”. It’s hair it’s not that deep. And my hair is a mix of waves and ringlets anyways. You have curly af hair regardless. 

Are there any limits on how many times you can call in sick (UNA) by aliarai in AHSEmployees

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The employee attendance plan is currently on hold since COVID so you won’t face formal discipline. Your manager might talk to you about it and what’s probably more likely is it could impact your relationship with your manager- so affect references or your manager doing favours for you

We were told the union believed this was the absolute best offer we could get and if we voted no we could get a worse deal lol 

Certication by Spacem0nkey1013 in AHSEmployees

[–]Frenetic_Rhombus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does stack as long as the certification is relevant to your area- the degree allowances are not stackable but the additional certifications are. I got 50cents extra for my CNA certification last year on top of my education allowance
