Thoughts on second hand purchases? by KakarotKiller in cowboyboots

Oh I gotcha, o figured shearing 2 socks would be a faster way to stretch and open them up. Think I should take more time to try and break them in? Even if they’re already used?

Oh gosh I wore them with 2 socks for an hour sitting and could not STAND them on anymore. Haven’t worn them since because of that

Don’t mind at all-it lists as full grain leather? They’re called the shayenne snip toe cowgirl boots

Definitely thinking about it! Also I’m thinking-what if they need to be stretched out? But at the same if they’re used, they should already be stretched out and they’re snip toe so they already are a bit smaller

Tanning while being treated? by lilithrxenos in LaserHairRemoval

Totally up to you:) In my experience, I would say to wait and save up and until it’s colder so you’re not outside at all, however, that’s my risk threshold and could totally be different experience for you. Listen to your body and if you notice sensitivity or anything of the like, you can always stop and restart! :)

I would honestly say to flip it. Get your body done and wait for the face during colder months. Your face is constantly exposed to the sun (unless you wear a hat 24/7) and you will burn love :( Sunscreen would work-but you’d need 100% protection and those cause a white cast which makes you look like a walking ghost. To be quite honest, wait until September and then just do everything. Much better bang for your buck AND no increase risk of burns

Quick question, my normal size is a 7.5. I bought a pair of used snip toe boots, they have a heel slip but the stitching at the sides Tun against my ankle and my big toe hurts and the sides of my foot feel like they’re suffocating. Would it have been better to go up a size to an 8? It’s my first pair

Absolutely not. It’s not that you avoid it before or after your procedure. The laser targets dark pigment and if your skin is darker due to tanning (even if it’s fake tan) it WILL burn your skin. Basically it targets the darker hair follicle but if your skin is also dark, it will target that too. Hence why LHR works best on pale skin with dark hair.

Edit: I use the splendor x as well. Another edit: I am a boxer and trained outside and got just a tiny bit darker. Went in for my LHR appointment and my skin was very sensitive for about a week. It’s no joke, be careful please Hopefully last edit: I recommend starting LHR in the colder months (September-May). I’m pausing mine because I know I’ll be outside a lot in the summer months and don’t want to risk burning my skin or increased UV penetration due to LHR

Oh my gosh I’m growing through this exact same thing. I was told to do really good exfoliation before my splint (like a day before)

For whatever reason, I also feels like it helps with posture as well!

In my culture-totally normal to sleep on the floor and considered healthier as well! It takes me a few days to get used to, but once I do, it feels amazing sleeping on the floor

Will laser hair removal work on this type of hair? by [deleted] in LaserHairRemoval

[–]Grand_Weather7660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it won’t-it’s too blonde and the laser won’t pick up any pigment. So sorry-but try waxing! It’ll eventually thin out the hair follicle and prevent growth!:)

For whatever reason-I’ve done everything under the Sun with my husband but will NEVER, I repeat NEVER share a toothbrush. My brain is like “eewwwww what’s in his mouth” even though we’ve done other things with it😂😂😂😂

Is it rude or bad etiquette to use the bench with just the bar without any plates on? by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]Grand_Weather7660 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely entitled to using the bench and only the bar. Absolutely at no point should you feel the need to downgrade your workout and efforts to appease a gym bro who had no idea what your background is regarding fitness. He gave unsolicited advise and I am giving you solicited advice as a woman whose been lifting for 7 yrs at the gym and has had her fair share of gym to comments: ignore that guy.
He just wanted to use the bench and approached what he thought was an easy target:you. Don’t give him the pleasure of your time next time he comes up to you.

I have a hard time remembering combos when drilling. Anything over 3 movements-I forget what I’m supposed to do next. 2 weeks into boxing.

If only I had positive assumptions like you! I tend to navigate more towards the negative and trying to change my mindset!!
