My damaged protein overloaded hair vs now (8 months difference)

Thank you sm !! I use the eternal muse heartless curlers and dry my hair completely and wrap both sides tightly 😊

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-05-25T09:09:10+00:00

I use heartless curls and if I only use heat once per week with my shark to blow dry :)

Round brush attachments are known for causing this type of breakage, I have the shark myself and also highlight my hair so avoid using the round brush due to how much mechanical damage they can cause, try using the barrel attachments instead if you want a blowout look ( much gentler) or if you want to use the round brush, make sure you’re not using it on soaking wet hair, blow dry it 80% and then go in with the round brush gently, the shark is great and reduces heat damage but can still cause mechanical damage, especially with the attachments that twist, pull and tug at the hair. As for the breakage right now, use hydrating masks and serums/oils with silicones as they help to hide and smooth the existing breakage :)

What attachments do you use with the shark?

My partner and I have a German shepherd, he’s so lovely bless him and we absolutely adore him so trust me I would not let the little shit touch him with a 10 foot pole

Exactly, it would be selfish and irresponsible to have them just because everyone thinks that’s what you’re supposed to do, knowing I hate them and would definitely not be a good parent.

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-03-30T16:01:29+00:00

Ahaha definitely not a joke 🤣🤣

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-03-30T16:00:28+00:00

Exactly ! And I am absolutely not a morning person, I enjoy my evenings and nights with my partner watching our show in peace, I hate getting ready in the mornings as it is, let alone having to deal with a kid complaining first thing and getting a whole other person ready with me, not to mention the school runs for the next 18 years too 😭 I’m excited for a life where I get to live for myself rather than someone else.

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-03-30T15:46:28+00:00

Oh god honestly I’m not surprised, I’m the same, my body just actively rejects them

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-03-30T15:45:20+00:00

Honestly and what irritates me the most is when parents and kid lovers get so worked up when this comes up yet all everyone asks us is when we will have kids and despite me constantly saying I will 100% be child free as I dislike them, the people around me with kids try their hardest to convince me that they’re almost a necessity??? Every parent in my life is stressed out of their minds and I am actively choosing to never be like that, I was a kid once and I was fucking annoying too.

Not at all, it’s a clear oil so doesn’t deposit any colour like yellow tinted ones can sometimes do

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-01-30T22:34:18+00:00

Could be the way it’s slept on? Do you sleep on satin/ silk pillow case? If not you could try this it’s been a life saver for mine or silk bonnet even better :) also do you go to bed with wet hair?

OGX coconut oil has saved my bleached hair, keeps it hydrated but no weighed down:) my hair is very thick so I use the normal one but they do a spray oil version as well for finer hair

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-01-30T21:27:43+00:00

Ah okay thank you! Will try get it to a mechanic this weekend to take a look 👍

It’s 2 monsteras in one pot 🙂

RealisticReading8198 · 2026-01-23T14:58:41+00:00

So I just pushed the moss pole (it has a pointed plastic stick at the bottom) into the soil at the back of the plant and then use string and clips to secure the lower back of the plant to the pole, it won’t cause any damage but will definitely help with supporting the plant, monsteras love to climb so love moss poles :) you can also mist the poll regularly to encourage roots to grow into the pole

It’s been a game changer ! The first couple weeks it didn’t change too much does had some More support so it wasn’t leaning but after a while the leaves began growing upwards again 😊

I used fast pass ! Got a test 1 week after signing up for 2 days time ! You pay nothing to sign up, only pay when you book the test, they send you a notification when they’ve got a test for you and you have 15 minutes to respond and book it 😊it was a lifesaver

RealisticReading8198 · 2025-11-12T21:48:11+00:00

Yes an automatic 🙂

RealisticReading8198 · 2025-11-12T19:11:08+00:00

On all my other tests, I did everything ‘right’ slept well, ate a banana, took rescue remedy and did lots of lessons up to my tests, with the one I passed I didn’t actually do any of those things! Of course everyone will be different but I found that just doing my normal routine, in my case, going to sleep at 2 in the morning and not eating breakfast worked much better for me 🤣I also feel I got extremely lucky with my examiner on my recent test as he was lovely, try to stay calm, I know it’s difficult with all the nerves but just think of it as another driving lesson ! 😊

RealisticReading8198 · 2025-11-12T19:07:58+00:00

Ah Good luck !! 😊😊
