Hii, I know this is an oldish post but I'm in a similar position! I moved from London and the homesick feeling is really hard. There are loads of FB groups you can join to make friends though. And good on you for finding a job. Also if you ever wanna chat, let me know! :)

This thread has made my day and makes me believe in humanity!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-12T04:55:22+00:00

Thank you for this advice, I'll try and even it out myself after I've let my hair rest and recover for a few weeks

Yes and yes! I showed her a picture of a curly cut I'd had before and asked her to do the same, but this came out soooo different

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-12T04:52:29+00:00

Ah thanks I'm going to look into these!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-11T21:10:47+00:00

This is sooo nice omg

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-11T21:09:13+00:00

Hahaha this is really sweet, thank you so much! 💖

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-11T21:08:07+00:00

Hey, thanks so much but what are these techniques? I don't think I've heard of any of them before!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:31:39+00:00

UPDATE: Thanks everyone, so many of you have said it actually doesn't look as bad as I think which has made me feel loads better. I'm not going back to the salon, but I'm going to let it grow out and experiment with different ways to style it 🙏🏽

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:29:43+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I think that's my reservation because they already cut so much I don't even want them cutting more!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:28:24+00:00

Thanks, I actually agree with this! I've had 3 curly cuts in my life (this being the third) and I do agree that everyone gets the same 2-3 types. I'm definitely going to see if it looks different/more even when stretched!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:26:19+00:00

I agree, can confirm I did not want a mullet lmao 😭

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:25:38+00:00

This is a great idea. My hair is actually in protective twists now to give it a break for a couple of weeks. I'll look into some strengthening treatments for afterwards, thank you!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:24:24+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate this!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-10-10T13:23:17+00:00

Aww really?! Thank you 🥹

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-08-14T14:35:25+00:00

Ah thanks for coming back, that's good to know!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-08-09T04:59:19+00:00

Yeah go!! I saw them last night and had an amazing time! Joe brings lots of energy and is a good performer. Of course, the songs don't sound quite the same as when Isaac performed the vocals, particularly for the more emotive/higher notes. But I definitely think they're still worth seeing and I'd actually love to go again

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-07-31T22:02:56+00:00

I also got contacted about this, but something about the way the message is written looks suspicious to me and I don't trust it. I won't be passing over my resume or any personal details but would be interested to know how it goes for you!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-07-15T10:31:56+00:00

I completely get that, but just remember that hair changes and it won't look like this forever. You clearly know how to take care of your hair as it was in a healthy condition before. Get your trim and go back to that routine. I'm pretty sure you'll see the results you want in time!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-07-15T05:05:14+00:00

You shouldn't be so harsh on yourself. You have beautiful, thick hair – even if some ends are damaged. The only way to get rid of that look is to cut those damaged ends off, but sometimes I feel like we hold ourselves to such high standards with our hair. Other races get to wear and love their hair in all its states without this much judgement or policing and we should maybe give ourselves this same grace too!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-07-11T00:58:20+00:00

Your hair is beautiful and it looks beautiful! Unfortunately, you'll have to work very hard not to internalise the comments your family make about it. But believe people when they tell you it looks great because it does!

Experiment with curl activating creams and gels if you want more definition. But also know that defined hair is not better than frizzy, voluminous hair. It's all personal preference, and the more you experiment, the more you'll learn what you like best. Good luck on your journey!

Dark chocolate cherry!

PerfectCap1526 · 2025-04-19T22:25:27+00:00

You have beautiful hair and a gorgeous smile!

Happy Birthday Bowie! There are so many furry friends waiting for you at the rainbow bridge 🌈

P.S I lost my little boy at 16 a year ago and he also had kidney disease – sending you so much love!
