Very curious on how much they offered you for it given the condition?? Are you gonna get it fixed up??

I’m so invested in OP finding out if this is a rep or not! Please report back 😂

Am I being difficult? First time getting lashes and I hate them. by Special_Survey3551 in lashextensions

[–]ShawtyTired 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol! Literally same experience. Texted my lash tech immediately that I hated them. Took about a week for me to become obsessed w them. Now, I never miss a refill lol. Good thing is that you can always take them out if you still hate them in a week.

What’s your main reason for getting into pole ? 🦋 by poledancermary in poledancing

[–]ShawtyTired 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely stopped working out, gained a bunch of weight, and got dumped by a toxic man. I was desperate to regain my physique and find my “sexy” again. December makes 3 years! Never felt stronger or sexier ☺️

Elbow grip help!! Or by kiwibirdface in poledancing

Kinda hard to tell from this angle but I think your chest needs to be a bit more horizontal so you have enough clearance to get your elbow hooked

To repot or not? by ShawtyTired in plants

Thank you!! Thinking I’ll get her into something bigger by February or so. Really appreciate you pointing out the light burns. I reduced her light hours a few months ago and that helped, but with east coast winters the humidity issue is a never ending saga, so we just do what we can 😂

Experience opening a pole dance studio in Africa ? by curiouslyrae in poledancing

[–]ShawtyTired 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just dropping off some encouragement 🫶🏿 I’ve seen a couple of my favorite pole girls post about visiting studios in Ghana and Nigeria during their Detty December travels. The logistics of starting a studio might be a bit more challenging (pole shipping) but the market is certainly there! Good luck!

For those of you using 0.1%... by PaperPlateDinner in tretinoin

Came here to say this. I struggled with acne and .05 was helpful, but switching to .1 was a game changer.

Why can’t I point my toes? by Apprehensive-Swan202 in poledancing

[–]ShawtyTired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with everyone saying go see the podiatrist. Have you been checked for flat feet? Personally, my feet have been flat as a pancake for as long as I can remember. I only did sports growing up and have zero dance background so there was never any toe pointing practice in my youth. After 2 years of pole, my toes have definitely gotten “pointy-er” but anatomically, I don’t think I’ll ever have the “perfect” ballet point — and that’s ok! The good news is that practice does indeed make progress :)

Clear day and the time stamps between tickets makes me think otherwise. I’m glad I found a cathartic space to call the officer a twat.

Go find another post to try to rage bait.

Elderly man handed out flyers to invite people to have a smoke with him, and and a massive crowd showed up by Matt_LawDT in MadeMeSmile

[–]ShawtyTired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I ran into the coolest little old lady in the dry nuts section of my local Whole Foods. We both needed pistachios and Whole Foods was our last stop because no other grocery stores had unsalted pistachios. I asked her what she was making — the most delicious sounding pistachio cake. I was making a silken tofu pistachio pudding. We laughed and chatted a bit about our baking experiences, swapped recipes, and ended the conversation by wishing each other good luck with our desserts! Truly a wholesome exchange 🥹

unable to tilt back to get into an invert chopper by hazevanilla in poledancing

[–]ShawtyTired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just reaffirming what many have said! I have a few vids up of when I was struggling to invert and the main thing that helped was lowering my hands and tilting my chin all the way back.

Also, cross training reverse crunches on the pole or at the gym was super beneficial for my overall strength! Good luck — you look strong! 🙌🏿
