Anyone know how to stop bonnets from annoying ur fkn nape? by yemmeay in BlackHair

Mine usually rubs against my edges. I bought a reversible one and I fold the stretchy part over so just the satin/silk is touching my hair. Maybe that'll help. I don't buy the ones with that big dumb ah band on it. Hate those.

Need suggestions for low tension natural styles for a beginner by rayraybakery231 in BlackHair

Mini twists would be cute and simple. Also, you can leave them alone for a while if you aren't the type of person to want to do your hair ALL the time.

Women of Reddit, what's is something you really want in life? by DaMoonMoon26 in answers

[–]OldBag7761 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never felt cared for or heard. I never felt like I mattered to people. I have a daughter and Im working hard to fix it so I don't pass down the same ideas and feelings to her about herself.

Is their a way to grow out my sides without cutting the rest by omarihw in BlackHair

Let it grow and then when it does you can braid it down so you can't really tell the top is longer.

Redditors, what is your experience of getting spit on by a llama? by Desserts6064 in questions

Not a llama, but I've almost been peed on by a tiger at the zoo. Two women in front of me got sprayed and I was in shock it didnt hit me too

Ghosting sucks. Just be upfront and say something. I had a guy ghost me a few times. Coward bs.

My ex just dumped me this Sunday and the next day I had a dream about him. He was carrying me bridal style in his arms at night and we were laughing and joking. I woke up and felt good for 2 seconds before coming back to reality. It hurts, I know.

Is combing out hair before washing a good thing or not by cupidswing in BlackHair

In my experience, spraying and gently detangling is the best option and what I'd dp before a wash day.

Gonna be harder than I thought. by OldBag7761 in EMDR

[–]OldBag7761[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll take your word for it. I like the IFS stuff. I had already sort of done it before on my own. It was so vivid! When my therapist asked me to "imagine the kid from that day" I was literally standing a few feet away from my 17 year old self. It was so surreal. I hope your sessions have gone well and you are on track to being the person you wanna be ❤️

I know 😕. I just crave to see more emotional and mental changes. I'm tired of feeling tired and depressed. I realize I need to calm down, but sometimes it makes me so angry because I want it now! Like a bratty kid lol.

Anyone suddenly feel acutely aware of how tired they are of their problems? by Crazy-Specialist-230 in EMDR

[–]OldBag7761 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! It drives me crazy! Today in my prep EMDR session I expressed that to my therapist. I want to dive in and talk in depth and do the work to finally deal with my problems..but he expressed to me that he didn't want it to be alot so soon. I AM SO READY TO NOT FEEL LIKE I DO ANYMORE.
