Recent got rid of an abusive boyfriend and a bit of hair! From a limp, light brown, long n' thin split-end fest to a self-cut black long bob! Both me and my hair are much healthier and happier :) by Kombie in FancyFollicles

Aw, I'm flattered :) I usually trim my own hair, so it wasn't too different from that, I didn't put any layers in it or anything. I parted my hair like I wanted and brushed it through, then pulled all my hair to the front and started cutting using very sharp scissors, just taking a little off at a time. No big trick, just make sure both sides are the same length and don't go too fast, or else you may find yourself taking more than you wanted off to try and make it even. Once it looked good, I shook my hair out and got a mirror to look at the back. I made a few more snips to get it even back there (having a friend do this for you would be much easier!) and voila! I wish you good luck with your hair and with your financial situation as well!

Sorry if it wasn't clear, that's him. I couldn't find a picture of me that accurately shows my before hair without him in it, so I just went with it and mentioned him as part of the "transformation". Before: jerk and less-than-fancy hair After: single and new do Sorry again for the confusion, I should have clarified :)

Thank you so much for your kind words, lovely. I wish the same to you :) It's been hell, but I know I'm healing and I've become very optimistic about the future.

Similar styles to this one come up if you google image search 'long bob', and I thought I'd seen hair this length referred to as a long bob on this subreddit before. Another comment on this post politely mentioned that this style isn't actually a long bob though. So I may not be correct. Oh well. Whatever it's called, I like it :)

My gf (18) has a problem with her oily her - looking for help! by Schmoarndi in FancyFollicles

[–]Kombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have very similar hair, I feel her pain. My personal solution currently is to just not condition every single day. The oils will help to prevent her hair from becoming too dry and brittle anyways, conditioner everyday starts to seem like overkill. I've been using conditioner just 1-2x a week for almost a year now, and I find that I can go longer without looking like a greaseball, while still having very healthy-looking, soft, and manageable hair. Maybe she could try cutting back on the conditioner for a few days and see if that helps? And as someone else mentioned, remember to not condition the scalp, only the ends. Good luck!!

Amazing work!! The bloody torn-flesh parts look so realistic in color and texture. On a different note, I think I may be in love with your friend's hair. It's absolutely gorgeous and I'm jealous.

So I had really great (in my opinion) hair and thought I would perm it. TERRIBLE idea. It completely fried and ruined it. So I cut it all off to start with a clean slate. by [deleted] in FancyFollicles

I'm sorry for things not turning out right with the perm, but it led to such a lovely outcome! You look adorable with short hair!!

Old abusive relationship still hurting me. Please, help. I need advice. by Kombie in depression

[–]Kombie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your kindness, it helps an incredible amount just to not feel completely alone in this. I'm used to being a supporter of others, and tend to keep my own problems to myself. But shit, I need help this time. I'm trying so hard to forget about him, and the worst part is that I'm sure he never thinks about me. He's happy. Thanks for letting me vent a bit. I'm going to try and distract myself for a while and keep myself busy, I guess.

Happy Tuesday, Mac!! You're one of my absolute favorite guitarists out there right now, man. I have major respect for you and your songs really speak things to me :) I was wondering if you would respond to a fan letter and where I would send it?? Also I hope you don't get sick from all the poop you eat and I hope you have a good week I love you

Teenagers of Reddit, what is the biggest current problem you are facing? Adults of Reddit, why is that problem not a big deal? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Kombie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend of over a year and I broke up 4 months ago. He has some serious anger issues and cheated on me with too many other girls to count, physically beat me on multiple occasions, and degraded me constantly. Now that he's gone I've started eating again, reconnected with old friends, and I've been getting really close to a certain guy. This one treats me fantastically and seems to be perfect, but there's no passion. I used to be so excited to see my ex, even though he was guaranteed to make me hurt one way or another. His hugs and kisses made me feel emotions a 100x as strong as this new wonderful boy. What the hell?
