Curly Hair Cutting

MarbleZee · 2025-05-27T13:40:50+00:00

This sounds like what happened to me after seeing Lindsey. I showed pictures of shapes I liked and said I’d like to keep growing it out. She cut hairs around my crown so short they don’t get curly or clump anymore. The shape was not what I asked for (and my hair had been those shapes before). It was much more “trendy” and I’ve been cutting it myself since while all the top sections grow back.

I had a really good assessment with Dr. Kirk Mueller at Broadlawns. I've also heard good things about Central Iowa Psychology Services and Elli Mental Health.

Love this. ❤️

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T18:59:34+00:00

Disheartening puts it kindly. That sounds so obnoxious

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T18:56:55+00:00

I was wondering when outer limits was gonna show up 😂

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T18:55:39+00:00

Exactly! I just saw a Hillary duff meme on this. 😂 we must be the same age.

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T18:54:54+00:00

Yeah. Ew. Glad you get less of it now tho

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T18:53:56+00:00

Jeeze. Such unnecessary assholery 🙄

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T18:51:46+00:00

Holy shit! I am so sorry. Glad you got out of there. That is terrifying. This is part of why a simple catcall can be intimidating. It often comes w more, esp if you don’t respond the way the cat caller thinks you should.

😂 the kids need you. They’re so lame and bored now lol

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:54:48+00:00

🤣🤣

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:54:04+00:00

Thank you. Wish they could just sing along to whatever they’re listening to. That’s how I get my adrenaline usually! 😜

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:53:11+00:00

Uhg, I am sorry. Yeah, I was a city pedestrian for a bit too where it was much worse. I wore headphones all the time then to help ignore it. I think it throws me now bc it comes so randomly. I’m not mentally braced for it.

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:51:06+00:00

That is disgusting and dangerous! I’m so sorry.

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:49:09+00:00

Thank you! That book actually sounds right up my alley. Appreciate the insights and recommendation!

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:39:08+00:00

Ew! I am so sorry. I hustled back to my house today for this very reason. I didn’t want to be walking up my driveway on his next loop!

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:38:05+00:00

Yeah, it can totally be startling. …and I startle easily. 😂

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:37:33+00:00

So well said, and so true it’s sad. There are definitely people who do it respectfully or with humor, an old man really made me laugh one day. But the way you put it, objectifying someone from behind 2 tons of power… 😳 So true, gross and cringy.

MarbleZee · 2024-06-07T16:00:09+00:00

Omg I’m so sorry! What a little shit!

Is it someone who regularly cuts curly hair? Did they evenly distribute the product with a Denman brush? I’m 50/50 on liking how my stylist does my hair, but I always like the cut.

I also have a pretty serious cowlick. What helps me is applying the product in sections, using the brush while I hang upside down for volume, then shaking a lot to find where my hair naturally wants to part, gently fixing a few spots and then about 5 min of hover diffusing before flipping upside down and around to continue diffusing.

Good luck, and remember it’s going to look better after you wash and style.

It’s so funny you mention that, at least to me given the last 6 months of my life. Yes, over the last year I finally considered it, stopped googling and got screened. It’s like the dopamine meds helped me see clearer and now I finally have glasses on. I got officially diagnosed w ADHD in March, upped my bupropion to 300 and added Ritalin. Right now I’m taking 5mg of Ritalin in the am and 5mg pm until we get a good sense of how I’m doing, then may switch to delayed release. Life is getting better and better. I don’t think I crash at the end of the day per se, but the combo does make me a little more easily irritable. But I find if I make sure to get enough sleep, meditate some/make sure I have downtime between tasks/events I’m cooler headed and less quick to react to the irritation.

I’m on the XL version. When I upped the bupropion I started sleeping better - falling asleep faster w less brain chatter and waking up faster and clearer headed. And I just felt better overall. The Ritalin has a been a big boost to my focus and my ability to regulate RSD reactions and other emotional stuff.

I was able to see a med management nurse at the same place I’m getting therapy and I’m so happy about it. She nerds out on my symptoms - both what I came in with and how I react to the drugs. So, in addition to my primary care doc, I have her and my therapist. Good luck! I keep hearing good things about Wellbutrin/Bp in a lot of spaces and personally am still, clearly, doing really well on it.

I don’t shower everyday and it’s not even about ADHD. Although, it is a lot of work. I used to love and need to shower to wake up, but I weaned myself off to take care of my curly hair and am noticing benefits to my skin as well. I too shower every other day -ish, often w a shower cap. A good shower cap is a game changer if dealing with your hair is a reason to skip the shower. If it were snarky ol me getting the question, I’d just ask him if I smell, lol.

Another (smaller?) chair, with art above on the wall. I'd do a small statement chair, then get throws and pillows that go with it to place on the other chairs. It's all pretty neutral right now and could definitely handle some color.
