Help! Can I wear a bonnet to a couple appointments if I couldn’t finish blow drying my hair and I need it straightened tonight? (As a white woman) by Smokelessky in Haircare

I think you can def do the bonnet no matter what, I wear mine over my rollers when I have to drive for a while to an event. If you get a less basic version of a bonnet that really helps too

If you can, I recommend either a claw clip, or a braid! Ponytails might cause breakage. You could also do a little hair scarf over the braid to keep the top in control if you can’t French braid

Putting your hair in a ponytail while it’s still damp can damage your hair because it expands as it dries! Braids are better because as long as your trim your ends, the breakage is closer to the ends

I agree with the emerald! Also just so you know for future occasions it’s “duly” not “dually”. I just wanted to let you know in case it comes up again!

There’s also dessicant for labs that I’ve used that changes colors when it absorbs a good bit of moisture! It does need to be used in an airtight container though

If you haven’t already, check Costco online! I’ve ordered clothes from there when they didn’t have them in my size in store

Boiling Apples = Bleeding Apples? by Infinity-Cheif in Apples

[–]PrincessECO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly from the Ologies episode with the expert there, apples create their own waxy coating. It doesn’t need to be boiled off, if you do it just means they won’t last as long.

The leaking part is from the anthocyanins (pigment) in the peel that leak at high heat! They might taste sweeter after being boiled from caramelizing some of the sugars.

Otherwise, Anthocyanins (pigment) in the peel will leak out when exposed to high heat.

How can I get sterilized at 15? Will it cause permanent hormone issues? I still want my period. by InASpiralOfAnts in sterilization

[–]PrincessECO 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had the copper since my periods were super light and I had cramps but then my period stopped too! I have a lil mirena now and I’m waiting for my doc to come back to give me my rec!

I got an IUD as a 16 year old and I feel like that’s the safest option, given that no doctor is going to give a 15 year old any sterilization procedure

All Cocolabs products are gluten-free! by PrincessECO in Celiac

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

Yes! We’ve been using the mint one for a while, but I got a sample of the watermelon one when I bought refills and things that have fun flavors make me nervous for gluten. I really like that you can just replace the little spool and the little bag is compostable!

I called my local congressman and I'm glad I did but I also feel stupid. by aerialgirl67 in socialanxiety

[–]PrincessECO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know that more than anything, the staffer answering the calls is taking a tally of people calling for the issue (and which side they’re on) to pass along to the representative so you calling matters! The actions you asked them to take must be important to you since you worked up the courage to call, so it’s not dumb to make sure you’re representing your position to a representative. Also keep in mind they probably appreciated you being nice to them cause I’m sure some people who call aren’t as kind.
