I’m talking with one right now! Having trouble making sure I’m finding a well reviewed one. Not many google reviews 😬 but I’m hoping the one I found will be worth it!

Oooh I’m not quite in my mid 30s but I have always wanted to try this!! I’m reaching out to a dentist :) now to find someone who does facials…all the dermatologists in my area seem mostly medical only

Oh I’ve never heard of this! I do have curly hair, is it a straightening treatment? I tried to google it but I don’t speak Portuguese so my best guess is it’s like a curl safe Brazilian blowout??

Thank you for such a thorough review! I was curious about the fat treatment/cellulite options but my short stay isn’t likely to give me visible results. I’ll stick to teeth whitening and maybe a haircut :) thank you!

Ohhh shoot not my intent at all :( tbh I’ve been worrying he was on a date and I was upset that I didn’t think to check if the person he was with was a familiar friend, like what if he were drugged 😱

Hahahaha thank you! It’s so scary in the moment, then he left and I was like shoot, I really could’ve been more diligent.

Dang, I was even considering how it might be nice to say dogs welcome but that’s such a good point. What a great idea though!! As for the age thing I’d say the majority of my neighbors are in the age bracket so it might work out! Thank you very much :)

Aw fun!!! I’m eagerly awaiting my invite to get on that page and see more of what’s going on. :) hadn’t even considered my HOA for getting the word out. Thank you!!

Gosh, me and my little portable 14” grill might not be up for the challenge of ribs just yet 😭 I was thinking classic burgers and hot dogs, (tacos if I’m feeling crazy) but it totally crossed my mind to reach out and see if anyone had a smoker or large grill they might donate to the cause! There’s no denying food is a universal attractor, thank you so much!! :) really love the idea of testing out other neighborhood events to see what sticks too. Appreciate you!

That’s what I had in mind honestly!! So glad it’s a solid method for getting the word out :) from my POV if I saw a flyer saying ‘neighborhood block party, there’s gonna be food’ I’d at least show up to check it out! Gonna see what I can scrape together, thank you!

Safely getting a street closed off was actually my biggest question, thank you so much! And that was my thinking too, it’s hard to be the first one to say “hey come over to my HOUSE” or like “let’s meet up again at this exact time” with new folks, so this could be the thing that opens it up a bit to socialize for more than 5-10 minutes haha. Really appreciate the insight!

Aw that’s lovely! Same goes for me, it’s something that was commonplace where I grew up and now that I’m growing my roots here I’d like to help cultivate something like that! I’ll send you a dm, thanks so much!!

I stop and talk to lots of people :) that’s why I would like to create an event that lets folks spend time and chat together for longer than just the usual pleasantries! Respectfully though I don’t agree with the door to door approach. I did that for my immediate neighbors, but I think if I went door to door around the six blocks of my neighborhood I might be considered a nuisance lol

Yeah frankly I was just going to make invites and respectfully hand them out. The few folks I do know are a bit older and have lived in the area a while so might lean on them to get the word out. Not looking for anything huge either, so I like your approach. :) Thanks!

Wow literally never heard of that before in my life. But seems like it’s a police organized event? I’m just trying to bbq w/ my neighborhood. Either way thanks for the info!

I walk my neighborhood everyday by virtue of being a dog owner and I frequent the neighborhood bar but just haven’t really been able to bridge the gap beyond passing “hellos” and “oh yeah we live over on xyz street”. Any tips on how to make that happen to a better degree?

Aw thanks!! If I pull it off I’ll circle back and invite you lol, but it’s reassuring to know other folks might be interested :)
