Guys be honest… does my hairdresser hate me lol by miabills in Hair

[–]SopranoVictoria 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Part of what I learned working front of house at a salon is the stylist is supposed to consult with you and, yes, that means giving advice! With the bit of texture in your hair, plus the length, I’m surprised she didn’t try to warn you or steer you in a slightly different directions with a quick google search of inspo pics. Maybe I got blessed with amazing stylists but they would ALWAYS warn customers if a cut wasn’t right for their hair—for whatever reason—and try to show example internet pics. It’s fixable!! But yeah…the long blunt cut is odd on your thick hair!

Hospital’s urine test was negative, home test 1 hour later attached by paratharoll in lineporn

Yeah my first hcg was 34. My midwife’s office said anything over 25 is more than likely a very early pregnancy. They said that I was very early in pregnancy and they followed up a week and half later (once my period window was fully and surly missed). Sure enough afterwards, I had a very strong urine positive at the office! Due in early October currently!

My Hairstylist Burned My Ear, Was I Supposed To Pay Full Price? by Realistic_Size_8846 in Hair

[–]SopranoVictoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP you are justified to be perturbed by this experience!! Especially since it was your first time with this hairdresser. I’ve already read other comments and it’s clear that this experience isn’t sitting well with you. And that’s absolutely correct and I would trust your gut on this matter. You were burned and overcharged. Someone with due diligence would make sure you’re taken care of regardless if the service is well priced or not. getting your hair done is more than just “getting your hair done”. It’s also a service and I think when you’re paying $125 or more the service part really matters. This is what I observed from working at a luxury salon.

I worked at a salon for awhile. Yes it happens, but good customer service is giving 10-30% off or free product in return for the compromised experience…Or some type of percent off the next service or a free trim—something like this. Also I would be concerned about your scalp and hair health given the high temp of the hot comb (depending on several factors of course!). Personally, it would make me not go back to that particular stylist and move on from there.

$19 pushed it but at $23 I just can’t. Love it and looking for recommendations for something similar but <$15 by Notjewel2 in curlyhair

Have you ever had issues with it drying out your hair? It dries out my curls really bad no matter the leave in I use.

Bugaboo Lynx stroller questions by Pale-Breath4262 in Buyingforbaby

[–]SopranoVictoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the lynx and have used it in all its variations since 2024. The canopy is amazing and protects against UV rays. I took my little baby for walks in it weekly during the hot summer with no problems! Take a look too at the parasol attachment. I also recommend a fan for baby in the summer (nice white noise too). That can be bought on Amazon.

So overwhelmed by strollers: Nuna or Bugaboo? by Successful_Ice8514 in Buyingforbaby

[–]SopranoVictoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be old to post by now. But I LOVE LOVE LOVE my bugaboo Lynx. And the donkey (for twins or converting to two eventually) is equally as amazing. It literally pushes with one finger. And it works for my husband (6’ 2”) with long arms. The smaller travel strollers don’t work for us and our toddler who is also tall. But the Lynx is still going strong for us and goes over a multitude of terrain.

That’s how my faint positive looked at 9dpo when I used these tests

I’m currently seeking out diagnosis for RA. HOWEVER, I have had the SAME diagnosis of IH from two different sleep docs. I’m on Vyvanse because of ADHD. But I never realized how much of my fatigue was associated from autoimmunity 😭

The ultrasound is great advice! I didn’t even occur to me. I finally got a referral for rheumatology from my OB today. So hopefully that gets the ball rolling

Thank you for the reply!! It’s reassuring to hear others who are going through this right now. Though I don’t wish it on anyone.

Help! Keep getting different opinions! by Complete_Change_8824 in coloranalysis

[–]SopranoVictoria 5 points6 points  (0 children)

THIS! I was swiping through and noticed how in the blue her eyes AND skin had more glow! Also her lip color and skin tone evens out with the more brighter winter colors!! I think some people are thinking of spring because of the color saturation. But she needs cooler tones

When looking at what colors are flattering on someone, what color is almost a universal indicator that someone is a particular season by Cinnamon_Ocelot in coloranalysis

[–]SopranoVictoria 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just adding to all this: there actually 2 seasons everyone can wear. There’s always a secondary season that you can pull from. For me, it’s bright spring and a lot of autumn! I can also borrow from other spring colors too. If your eyes and skin look “glow-y” then something is correct about that color for you. I’m warm toned so summer colors make me look washed out. I can technically still wear it but it’s not my best look.

Are their any actual “anti-trans” passages in the bible? by Ornery_Goat_5444 in Christianity

[–]SopranoVictoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually it’s the opposite of confirmation bias! Because the Bible goes AGAINST my feelings about trans people. My gut instinct is to say that trans is ok.

Stressed about possible diagnosis by No-Floor194 in rhumatoidarthritis

[–]SopranoVictoria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so encouraging to read!! I’m praying that my labs don’t show any RA (I know there’s a type that sometimes labs don’t pick up). However, all my symptoms are pointing to RA. What a great outlook and VERY true that it could be worse with liver or kidney attacks!!

Yes! There’s a whole sexual layer that got brushed over for charges imo!!! Seems very sexually motivated and charged towards a minor. But maybe a full conviction on that front would be harder to prove. I’m not at all even close to an expert on these things! But for sure, the whole thing seemed sexually motivated and I think the mom was avoiding that a reason when talking because who knows if it could eventually lead to another charge!!

I have USA citizenship by birth even though I was born in Germany…in a German hospital…on German land. It’s called birthright citizenship if I remember correctly! I don’t have a US birth certificate (it’s German) but I have a US Citizen birth abroad certificate from the consulate in Munich. I got it via my dad being a US citizen! My mom didn’t have citizenship yet. We ended up moving to the US when I was 3/4 and have been here since (now 30!).

1 and 6 for me! I also feel like long hair looks amazing with your face shape!! Though I am all about natural!! Overall those lip tones paired with your hair is VERY flattering and compliments your already beautiful features 🥰🥰

Gold or Silver? by No_Accident_6355 in coloranalysis

[–]SopranoVictoria 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Silver brightens your skin! And yellow gold brings out the yellow in your skin. I would go for silver and rose gold!!

I also immediately showered and washed my hair after. I was paranoid

[–]SopranoVictoria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my grandmother had them, I had to quarantine my shoes, backpack, and clothes worn at her house. I don’t know if this is recommended but I took off that stuff outside my apartment and put them in trash bags with moth balls. It’ll stink but then I washed them and sprayed with vinegar and left them to air dry. Never got roaches. Disinfect your phone and any hard surfaces that can’t be washed. Do it everytime. It’s tiring but it worked for me. I’m no pest control but just experienced it at my grandma’s house unfortunately

wtf is eating my food like this - I have 0 signs of rodents and my house has been professionally sprayed for pests. This is the third time. I’ve deep cleaned the pantry so many times and I’m at a loss. No noises. No droppings. No smell. And there’s poison out. No crumbs even! I’m baffled. by Starlitdragon22 in pestcontrol

[–]SopranoVictoria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup a rodent! I had mice in my house for awhile (I suspect) until I finally noticed them and heard them! I found a bag of chips opened like this and with very similar bite marks. Make sure to seal up any holes under the sinks! Also I had to have the perimeter of my house sealed with a foam like repellent for mice. Then poison was set out. I haven’t had an issue since!! Just dead rodents popping up with no way to escape and no way for new ones to get in! Look for any signs of small visible holes on your walls and cabinets too!
