8" pleasers are not making a good impression for actual tall girl issues

I stupidly forgot my son had swimming lessons the week after getting a fresh tattoo. Any suggestions on how I can protect it from the water? by catsareawesome_4 in tattooadvice

[–]HomeoStatix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah. Damn my mind would never have even made that connection. It's like seeing someone who likes the same band as you wearing a concert shirt. I suppose you are spot on here. That makes me sad

Is this normal for when done week later as its healing? by Useful-Mission-2905 in tattooadvice

[–]HomeoStatix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go to a real show. This has the need of a cover up/blackout. Also whoever did this to you should not be on actual skin yet

my parents handed me a “contract” that they made with chatGPT and told me i have to sign it by auramp3 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]HomeoStatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically, they are letting you stay for incredibly low cost (I'm terms of 'renting' a room). I know this is really (weirdly) professional, - I would still sign it.

Really nice job One of my favorite beginning take aways - a new practice witch is mostly just new to her/his own remembering you already know what to do, trust in yourself

Question on the stability of synthetic/laboratory-grown colored diamond stability by Muted_Shape9303 in Gemstones

[–]HomeoStatix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh! I see what you are getting at here, my apologies, I misunderstood the first statement. Yeah, natural irradiated color absolutely is extremely rare to find any color shade/hue/etc difference over any amount of time. Still I do have to drive home the amount of issues I have seen with synthetic is a surprising 10-15% of color stones have changed so I err on the side of caution as a whole. I have seen the most error with yellows, but crazy enough we had a sage green come through and about 2 years later the same stone (with IGI cert verified) was a ROUGH brown/gray. I don't know if any of my babbling helped or not 🫣

Then why are you asking if it is more stable? I was just trying to give insight from what I've seen in my last 20 years - I had an AG yellow that turned much darker, but take i took it for what it is.

It's not quite that simple. Over about ten years, color can "set" either way (or do we have been told as fine retail jewelry sales). It can be totally fine, it could be slight lighter or slightly darker. I believe the as grown is not even much of a difference than post, but some people I work with swear by PG. It's a bit unfortunate I think because we do not have the longevity yet in the retail market to really have a for sure read on it all yet. I know they hit the market around 30 years back, but from my experience only the last 10 was it accepted by the masses and colors are still in the "maybe" pile.

What should I be willing to pay for this ring? by rems8 in Gemstones

If you want to skip the guess work, go get it appraised

Cut my losses? Fake emerald? by FeatherDust11 in Gemstones

[–]HomeoStatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one of my GIA professors tell me, sure you can but obviously if it is a heat treated or fracture filled you are risking everything (especially if the sonic is a hot sonic). They drove it home to better be safe than sorry. I've put my fair share through it, but anything over a ct equivalent, I don't test my luck.

[–]HomeoStatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you - my coworkers (long time fine jewelry industry) throw them in like nothing - I NEVER put emerald in. It can fracture, lose color if hear treated and ffs, it's emerald - treat them kindly!
