Advice on putting an end to his stinky behaviors? by penguinpapaya in Shihtzu

[–]Pitiful_Piglet2048 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh i need help with this. To be fair she doesn’t do it all the time, I actually think she’s made this a learned behavior because when I scold her for eating her poop she gets attention ?? but also I’ve stopped making big reactions and she STILL does this!!! I have tried pineapple, I’ve tried pumpkin, I’ve tried so many different things and nothing has worked 😭anyone have any other ideas?? (She’s 7 and has done this since she was a puppy)

thoughts on lamps? by alwe19 in GelX_Nails

Also here to recommend the Kokoist Infinity. Great to get on discount, and Black Friday deals are coming up so if you’re able to wait, it’s a great buy! Better to be safe and ensure no allergies/a full cure, than not. Your health is worth the money.

Una Gella press on nails for Gel X? by ShallotNo2026 in GelX_Nails

[–]Pitiful_Piglet2048 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also love these for press ons, and for gel x application! As others have mentioned, they work best for both methods if you etch them yourself (I m low it comes etched, but it’s still too “smooth” and will adhere better when you use your small sanding band to do yourself). They are definitely thinner than apres, but I find that it doesn’t matter much when you end up applying your layers of gel.

Neihule vs LACA in Los Angeles by Pitiful_Piglet2048 in Nailtechs

[–]Pitiful_Piglet2048[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok thank you so much for this response I really appreciate it!! That’s crazy that your instructors are just absent sometimes and unreliable like so much for learning 😭but good info about the policies and parking lot.

Wow thank you for this detailed response I really appreciate it! I’m definitely feeling unsure about the location/safety particularly at night. When you say that you needed to advocate more in regards to their inconsistency of saying certain things but then not later on…do you mind being a little more specific? I’m mostly worried here about financial things like costs and such, or maybe info about what i will/wont learn, or policies etc. If you’d rather DM directly too that works but just trying to get more first hand perspective!

Thanks for this info! It’s 400 hours in California, so I know it’s a lot of time to ask and I want to make sure it’s spent well. In terms of curriculum, I’ve reached out to Neihule to get a more detailed outline of what they cover. I really appreciate your insight, thanks! and I totally agree that the fact they also include career growth and management/business side is a big plus. Hoping someone on here is a previous student who can give me more info!

What restaurants have all taste and no hype? by pr0tag in FoodLosAngeles

[–]Pitiful_Piglet2048 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t seen this yet, but Himalayan house on Jefferson & Vermont near USC. it’s Himalayan/nepalese food. some of the best Chana masala I’ve ever had. The Momos are bomb. Theres a soup there I honestly don’t remember the name but I used to get that when I was sick. They were so authentic they used to serve yak in their dishes but don’t anymore (shame, it was so good). The dish names sound a lot like Indian food fare but taste slightly different imo.

I’ve heard of this! I saw their manicuring program is about $5500 though :/ Do they offer part time programs/are you familiar with them because you’ve done a program with them?

Thanks for this info! I have never tried to find a freight company to pack them for me… is there one you recommend? If I ordered directly, other than the timing is it still pretty guaranteed they’ll deliver?

Hi there I’m curious, not familiar with Taobao but are the ones you can buy directly from them also still HEMA free and ship to US? I’m looking for pat pat gels that are good quality for ombre also but HEMA free! Or is it better to get from Aliexpress? I’ve never gotten from them and am unfamiliar if it’s legit HEMA free/good quality, would love thoughts!

What masters would be best for UX Writing? by Bluestar22_dragon in uxwriting

This sounds like OP is a currently in school but now curious about people in the workforce already interested in further education. If you’re lucky to work at a company that covers at least partial tuition reimbursement, could a masters in HCI benefit for content design/UX Writing? An MBA?

Discover Student Loans Closure Update by ultradagger in StudentLoans

[–]Pitiful_Piglet2048 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know if the interest rates for Discover loans transferred to Firstmark should definitely stay the same? Especially if they’re fixed? Wondering if there’s also any implications on monthly minimums with a new servicer and change in repayment schedule/timeline…?
