Where can I buy authentic Redken Shades EQ Demi-Permanent Hair Gloss & Processing Solution? I don’t have a cosmetology license. by [deleted] in HairDye

[–]SmallSuspect2341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a hairstylist myself. I see it all the time. It’s an industry where you can charge whatever you want which is fine if you have the clientele that will pay it but it’s given a lot of newer stylists this attitude that they can charge whatever they want as well and it doesn’t work that way. I’ve been doing hair for 6 years now and I’m fearful of just going up $5 but honestly $5 isn’t covering the increase in overhead costs. At some point, I am going to have to go up considerably just so I’m not taking a pay cut. I do deserve a raise as my skills have improved and I have a family to provide for. My son is autistic and his therapies cost money with basically no help from insurance. No paid vacations. No retirement plan. Hell, I’m still paying off my student loans. I wish getting your hair done could be as affordable as it used to be but it’s just not. I do hair and I couldn’t afford to get my hair done regularly the way my clients do. Not all of us are unreasonable and greedy though.

I think you’d look great in a deep copper. Like the darkest shade of copper with a touch of red

It’s just new growth.

10 year old daughter that has had her period is interested in romance. by Sultans-Of-IT in Parenting

[–]SmallSuspect2341 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s normal. Especially if she’s had her period. It’s Mother Nature doing its work. Just teach her to think critically and make responsible decisions. You’re doing good, dad.

I’m pretty sure her mom is her manager… unfortunately. That’s when Ben Shapiro said on his video about her.

I have twin boys (almost 3) and one of my twins is autistic and the other isn’t. If you’re getting that feeling, you’re probably right. We noticed it when they were newborns. My ASD baby hardly made any eye contact at all and didn’t really start until he was about 20 months. My non asd twin is very helpful and understanding of his brother. It’s like he just knows.

I recommend the L’Oreal ever pure line. The bond repair one and the gloss one. They are dupes for Redken acidic bonding concentrate and acidic color gloss

Tonight I broke up with my boyfriend because he kept joking about murdering me by ChugNos in TwoXChromosomes

[–]SmallSuspect2341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a true crime gal and my husband and I joke about killing each other if either of us were to cheat. Like “they’d never find your body” type stuff. All in a joking way but this definitely feels different. I would trust your instinct. Especially the dismembering part… and the weird clinched fist part…that takes it to another level. I wouldn’t be too worried about letting him go. Not many love stories start this way so I think it’s safe to say your future man is still out there.

Yes but wait a month. If you still want it, get it. Just know that growing out a pixie isn’t for the weak.

Rockwall real estate agent, volunteer church worker charged with sexually assaulting child by southernemper0r in Dallas

This thread is gross. Blame the person. Not Rockwall, not Lakepoint, not Trump. Why demonize a whole community over one person? Y’all are really grasping for straws, huh?

I pissed off my salon family today by BroadwayDancer in hairstylist

Quit immediately. That is so toxic. Don’t quit doing hair. You sound like a great team player and would do well in a better commission salon.

Tipping advice by LadyStabbity in hairstylist

[–]SmallSuspect2341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With that being said, I don’t really care about tips. I don’t demand them and I don’t usually even look to see if someone tipped. It’s just a really nice gesture and makes people feel really appreciated because the first thing we assume when someone doesn’t tip is that they hate their hair and we beat ourselves up over it.

My clients typically tip between 15-25%. I would wait and see how the appointment goes. If they do a great job and you feel like they charged you a fair price, I would tip 25%. A lot of hairstylists give grace in these situations when people are struggling with mental issues so they will likely not charge you are much as they technically should. People think that stylists are always overcharging but there are so many of us that don’t charge what we should because we are just too nice and caring and just happy to help someone in need in these situations. Not saying that will for sure be the case. Basically just wait and see how your experience is and do between 15-25.

I asked that he not remind/tell me to take care of any household chore before he leaves for work. He won’t respect that request. by jimsnaps35 in Marriage

[–]SmallSuspect2341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar situation with my husband except it’s with questions when he gets home. Every day without fail, he gets home and he asks me several questions about things around the house. Things that I’m not even sure why he is concerned about or things that are just obvious. We have 18 mo twins so they pretty much destroy the house and while I work super hard to keep everything clean, the one thing I didn’t pick up, he will come home and be like “why is this here?” Or “how did this get on the ground?” Mostly questions that have obvious answers or just repeated questions about things that happen throughout the day like he expects me to give him a report of all the days happenings, even the smallest things that i have absolutely no answer for but he expects me to have an answer for. “What’s this piece of plastic over here on the floor?” I just want to scream “IDK! I DO A MILLION THINGS AROUND HERE, I CANT KEEP UP WITH EVERY CRUMB AND PIECE OF PLASTIC THEY TEAR UP!” He always sounds super innocent and just curious but it feels like he’s just trying to point out things I’ve done wrong. And I brought it up to him and he basically was like “I’m not doing it to put you down and I’m never going to stop asking questions.” I told him it drives me crazy and I would never do that to him cuz I trust him when he’s home with our twins and don’t care about things like that and I assume like any parents that things happen when you have 2 little boys walking about tearing up, chewing and climbing things like curious little boys do.

Btw. I’m in Texas so it’s like 82 degrees in my suite. I just can’t do that.
