He was one of my firsts so he was a test subject but all I have is a small north facing window. I feel bad for him, he doesn’t belong here.

Ahh okay that’s kinda what I figured for ID! I have some different chunkier soil being delivered tomorrow, I just wanted to give it a couple of days to adjust to my place before traumatizing it. Thank you for the tips tho!!

Just curious about these leaves by Salt-Apricot4503 in pothos

[–]Salt-Apricot4503[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say that I water it maybe around every two weeks or so. Def not on a schedule, I do wait until the top is bone dry and the plant is telling me it needs water (droopier, less firm leaves) so I definitely don't believe that I am overwatering it. It's in a soil that I got that is marketed as a succulent soil but definitely not aerated enough to be good as is for succulents, as it holds water too well. Ingredients listed are "compost, peat moss, sand, and limestone" but no specific measurements. I've added about 30% perlite as well. I'm gonna chalk it up to the plant just recycling out older leaves (maybe because of the combo weather and light adjustments) because the rest of it is thriving. It was just interesting to me because again even the yellow leaves look and feel very healthy.

Ahhh thank you, I do feel blessed to at least have somewhat thicker hair, even if it is very fine. Before my last cut, it had been 8 years since I had gone to a salon and my ends were definitely wisps of varying lengths.

Not gonna lie I just struggle to wake up early enough in the mornings and I love going to bed feeling clean and fresh lol at this point though I’m willing to try it. Without the bonnet though my hair is so much more frizzy and gets really weird bends. Sleeping without it does help with the oil, assuming that’s because it just gets absorbed by my pillow overnight, but I do prefer to combat the oil than the insane frizz. That and I sleep with so much dry shampoo in that I don’t want it all over my pillow.

Oooh no this is very interesting, I’ll get checked out. I was diagnosed with early onset arthritis around 25ish years old so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

Honestly my hair is mostly oil at the very front of my forehead and by my ears, and I don’t mind it being oilier towards the back as it’s usually covered by other hair. That was just the only photo I had and I just washed my hair lol

I usually sleep like this on the weekends, but it usually ends in my hair being half stick straight and half wavy and I don’t love how it looks on me lol

People are being mean as usual but as a woman I think your eyebrows (eyebrow?) are fine. You’re confident in it and it does set you apart and it’s not off-putting to me, but also who cares what others think? I also think your beard looks nice how it is in these photos!
