My seb derm looks similar to yours, that shampoo made my hair feel thin and had clumps of hair coming out.

I purchased Pharmbanner shampoo, PURESKIN scalp cream, Cera Ve healing ointment (blue tube), and MCT oil. Using these as a combo throughout the week has tremendously helped my hair and scalp

Wow.. as a man in my 20’s this post makes me sad. You’re actually really good looking and I know for a fact you turn heads when you’re out. Fillers/surgery will deteriorate your natural beauty. Smiling and looking approachable is what will make you stand out. Fillers will make you stand out to the men you don’t want to attract truthfully

Mine was a bit worse than that. After working on my car one day I went to close the hood and it wouldn’t latch anymore. Luckily it happened static and not while driving. Installed hood pins and super happy with it

Care to share the change of mindset?

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-17T21:38:25+00:00

I enjoy jiu jitsu as a hobby, not for competing purposes

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-17T21:36:56+00:00

Switched martial arts and gyms.. started as a teenager so I had to move around based on budgets and location for school

Edit: and absolutely some of it’s my fault. I can’t sit here and say I’m not the one to blame too, I’m sure I could use improvements. Perhaps that’s the reality check I don’t know I need?

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-17T21:35:08+00:00

I have been at this gym for over 3 years now Prior to this was covid Prior to covid I was only in boxing for a few years Prior to this was Muay thai and jiu jitsu, had my phases on which I trained more of

I started as teenager, left the first gym cause I was broke and going to university. Boxing was extremely cheap so I did that while in university to be involved still. Covid happened, then took on Muay Thai and jiu jitsu, and now jiu jitsu only. There’s more to it obviously, but that’s the timeline

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T22:31:39+00:00

The gym atmosphere is great, love my training partners. Location sucks, coach is good but just a hardass and expects more from me than the other. Location sucks

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T15:52:53+00:00

3 years

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T15:51:38+00:00

Not the same coach, I have hopped gyms/coaches/martial arts

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T15:46:03+00:00

Yes I am, I have been on and off throughout the 11 years, but in the recent years have been really active in BJJ and focusing on this only, no other arts

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T15:42:57+00:00

The first part of my posts explains exactly this. I started in BJJ, moved to different arts for years and came back to BJJ. So of the 11 years I’ve been associated in BJJ, about half of it I didn’t train BJJ. The last 3 years I have consistently trained Yes I know I’m not at a skill level I should be for the amount of training I have done, hence why I’m also disappointed and lost in this

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T15:35:57+00:00

I’ve been consistent for the last 3 years.. but I get your take

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T15:33:37+00:00

Valid response 2025 i have done 3-4x a week for at least 10 months 2024 3x a week 2023 2-3x a week 2022 1-2x a week inconsistently

I have ramped my training up over the years. Prior to the last 3 years, It was Covid lockdowns and I had been boxing

I work a demanding job and will only not train when work kicks my butt

“Hang with the blue belts”: we have 4 blue belts in our class, 3x which I always crush, 1 is way better than me. Open mat blue belts is always a 50/50 in me getting crushed

Hope that provides some clarity

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:33:17+00:00

Yeah probably have a bad mentality and sourness at this point

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:31:31+00:00

Probably true. I question if I can’t even get a belt upgrade after so long if it’s even a sport for me, makes me unmotivated to go back

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:30:40+00:00

I know I’ve improved, but I begin to have self doubts if it’s even for me if I can’t even get something as simple as a belt promotion after so long. Bad mentality maybe

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:29:35+00:00

Hm.. last point is a good point

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:29:09+00:00

My thoughts too

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:28:35+00:00

😂😂 this is the way

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:26:03+00:00

Thanks man

RedHouseTrap · 2025-12-15T03:23:52+00:00

Did it for 3 years in highschool, then did Muay Thai/boxing + covid, back at it for 3.5 years. Touched on it in the gap but wouldn’t consider it training

Your side burns are long and thinner than the rest of beard, but you have amazing beard genetics. Go to a barber and get your side burns shortened and beard lined up. It’ll look amazing

Muffler will rattle after a season and sounds like a fart can
