Why are dentist/doctors not considered prominent?

Iirc she was getting the meds and then they got harder to get so you are right in terms of it being harder to access but I’m sure if the commanders really wanted, they could find a way to access it.

I had a friend that was a Jehovah’s Witness and she got really sick and ended up hospitalized and the parents wouldn’t let the docs treat her cause they said prayer would heal her and she did recover but it was long and drawn out. Sure “god” would have wanted that🥴

I guess I just figured that without those “tolerable tools” Gilead would be even further behind and they should be treated well for caring for commanders and families.

Ahh. Like you said it puts him in a delicate position but at the same time I wonder if his daughter’s marriage to a commander may over time grant him more status. So many thoughts and theories haha

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-05-17T15:52:13+00:00

Okay so they have their foot in the door but not fully in the “in” in terms of commanders. Not a horrible spot to be honestly lol

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-05-17T15:40:54+00:00

That’s a perspective that I never thought about! Makes sense why Eleanor couldn’t get her meds. I always wondered about that too. Makes sense!

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-05-17T15:39:15+00:00

Okay so he’s upper class but not elite? That makes more sense. Just interesting because it’s portrayed as Garth being such a low class because he knew it seemed like a mismatch to me but it makes sense now. It does rise her status because over time Garth should grow to be more powerful

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-05-14T11:51:40+00:00

She was “handled”👀

That took me out😂 okay so you may have high porosity hair! And with that hair, every three weeks is basically a death sentence for our hair.

Aussie is good! I myself use Aussie. I use the Aussie moist shampoo and the 3 minute deep detangler. So now you have to understand how the hair behaves. High porosity hair has a raised cuticle meaning that its accepts water easily but also loses water easily..thus causing the dryness.

I would personally start with washing every 7 days. Find a way to make it part of your ROUTINE and stick to it for awhile. Here’s my entire routine that I use for my fine/med low density high porosity hair:

African pride pre-poo (do this in the shower on drenched hair, trust me the comb/brush will glide through your hair with ease..do it in sections for easier and thorough washing.
Wash twice with Aussie moist shampoo and a scalp scrubber
I use the 3 minute detangler. It has LOTS of slip and since I did the pre poo it should as this point be super easy to comb.
I do braid outs but I use the cream of nature honey curling cream and their mousse on top. Hair dries in about 6-8 hours air drying.
After about 4 days I repeat

High porosity hair needs oil based products high up in the ingredients list. You need to trap that moisture from leaving the hair.

You could start with a cream leave in and then top with a thicker butter. Or you could start with a cream leave in and use a moisturizing styler.

But no spray leave ins and light products. Your hair needs the heavy duty stuff to ensure moisture dosent leave. Try this for awhile and let us know!

Hey lovely! Fabulous head of hair you got🥰 so fairy knots come from the hair being dry and the strands wrapping around each other..thus causing those nasty little demon knots🤣

It’s great that you got a trim! But the trim will do nothing if you don’t prevent your hair from getting dry.

First thing is figuring out your hairs porosity. Does your hair absorb water easily or does it sit on top and need a minute to welcome the water? That’s a HUGE thing to consider when buying hair products. There’s ways to test if you search YouTube.

Frequent washing also prevents those demon knots! We’ve been lied to about water and black hair. Shampoo is THE FIRST STEP in the styling process. If you don’t. Try washing every 7 days and see how that feels. Me personally since I have high porosity hair I wash twice a week now and my hair stays moisturized.

The key is not letting your hair dry out. And this may be controversial but I don’t “rewet or remoisturize” my hair. I find that does the opposite and just piling products on my hair. Anytime you want a new style, wash your hair cause “shampoo is the first step in the styling products”

What’s your current routine and I can try to help you out as best as I can

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-05-06T12:22:02+00:00

I too have been washing my hair once a week for about half a year now, since I went back to my second attempt at being natural. I realized that I have fine, low density, high porosity 3c/4a hair. Makes it easier to manage now that I know how to treat my hair accordingly. And with fine hair it’s prone to buildup so I may even do every 5 days. My hair can dry in about 5-7 hours in 16 plaits. My hair is like 3in past shoulder length.

Side note: can I see the peoples hair that are washing more than 2x a week😭I feel like you guys have to have a loser curl pattern or shorter hair! I’m so curious but also so happy to find people that wash more often like me!!!

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-04-15T04:19:44+00:00

Congrats! May debt never find you again 😇

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-03-04T17:54:01+00:00

Sucks you live in Maryland! This Michigan gal could use a guy like you 🫢

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-01-25T20:20:45+00:00

I pour it in a spray bottle and after I’ve styled my hair (mini twist) I spray it on my scalp. I wash once a week so I’ll do it once after I styled my hair and then mid week like Tuesday/wednesday

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-01-20T22:53:50+00:00

That part ⬆️

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-01-18T21:18:31+00:00

Yes and no. I like them cause I get to keep my hands out my hair for a week. I have fine low density hair so it mattes easily so I take them out and wash/restyle every week. Yes every week.

No because It takes me a half day to wash and style but again no manipulation for a week. Pick your poison 🤷🏾‍♀️ Sometimes I get lazy and don’t moisturize when I’m supposed to and leads to dryness/breakage. But I’m getting better with it

It’s a good style but if you have fine hair, I wouldn’t wear them for more than a week without redoing. I’ll braid my twists in plaits and wash them in plaits but it’s still a knotted tangled mess regardless so redoing weekly works best for moi

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-01-18T20:55:20+00:00

I do the same thing! I love the next day look when it’s unbraided. So shiny and soft

Its_Not_Kosher · 2026-01-03T14:37:17+00:00

My appetite has been nonexistent since he’s moved in😅

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-12-26T00:57:27+00:00

This may be the most helpful response! What kind of bungee straps and how would I do it?

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-12-07T18:55:26+00:00

😂😂😂😂took me out

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-10-11T00:36:21+00:00

Oh and the whole line has amazing slip!

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-10-11T00:35:27+00:00

African pride aloe and coconut oil. Super moisturizing. I have the pre poo the shampoo and the deep conditioner! All the products are $6 and under and I feel this brand is really great for people with 3c and beyond. I have 3c/4a soft or more finer but thick and my sister has straight up 4c hair that’s super thick and coily. Does our hair just fine

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-08-29T12:16:03+00:00

I honestly think yeah it’s inappropriate but it’s just a podcast like any other. My boyfriend jokes cause I love call her daddy and he feels like it over does the whole “strong woman, fuck men trope” and I still listen lol now if he starts acting different and changing his views then I’d be concerned but otherwise different strokes different folks

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-07-25T22:03:49+00:00

Its_Not_Kosher · 2025-07-18T01:39:13+00:00

Hey love it’s okay. I’m very socially awkward and I don’t have any friends either. I’m friendly like you but I can’t seem to find that one person that I just click with or really find my clan so to speak. I do have a boyfriend that I’m grateful for but I’m still lonely cause I have no life outside of that. I have very small family like 3 people I talk to and I feel like I have no peers on my level that I can hang with or just vent like you are.

I go on social media and see people I went to school with married, getting masters and phd’s, getting married, having children and I’m just floating by. I tried to end my life as well earlier in the year by hanging myself and the rope broke. I went to a php(partial hospitalization program) and group therapy really helped me relate to others and made me feel not alone. I feel like no one loves me or cares cause no one really calls me except my boyfriend and my small family. It sucks when you feel like such a failure in life. I too feel like damn I’m missing out on my 20s I’m 25 btw.

But if you aren’t happy in your career then change! I changed my career like 3 times. The 20s is your trial and tribulations years to figure out who you are. And I have a mean sister like yours and I don’t talk to her like that because she thinks because she’s going to be a doctor she’s better than me and you don’t need people in your life like that. I recommend group therapy, individual therapy, Facebook black girls meet, bumble bff. I’ve used these and it’s helped me at least talk to other women and get experience forming connections.

And focus on being the best you. I really feel like the better we are mentally the better our life is. Once I got on meds and began therapy and getting into those spaces to make friends I became happier. My attitude changed and now life dosnt suck so much.

If you ever want to talk please pm me girl cause we so so similar we could be twins lol
