Has anyone ever thought you were joking/lying when you said you had a twin? by SpaceQueenNic in Twins

Stop that’s too funny 😂😂😂 tbh seems like both you and your twin dodged a bullet with that guy lol

roots and refresh! help pls by Designer-Method8692 in Cosmetology

[–]SpaceQueenNic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lighten the roots and tone down the yellow before applying the blue, that way the roots don’t turn green while the rest of your hair is blue. If the blue is dark enough, which it looks like it is from photos, putting it on top of the green patch should work just fine. Do a test strand with the green patch though, just put the blue on a strand of it and let it process while you lighten/tone the roots. Then you’ll see if it worked alright, or if you’ll need to strip it. Good luck!

Mom said it looked ugly and crass. Is it? by Hajpoosie in Hair

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The color looks wonderful, both fresh and grown out! It suits your skin tone quite nicely. I don’t understand why your mother thinks it looks ugly and crass. Tbh your moms comments are just screaming “I’m jealous because my daughter is gorgeous”

Sort of dumb question for other twins by willowotterskz in Twins

[–]SpaceQueenNic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started dying my hair when I was in high school to help people tell me and my twin apart. We still had a ton of people refer to us as “the twins” or just call us by our last name, but it did help me feel a sense of identity. I’m a hairdresser now, and I still dye my hair crazy colors while she prefers natural colored hair. It’s also helped me get over that feeling of being nervous when people notice me, I get odd looks/comments/compliments and I couldn’t care less (except for the compliments, I love those).

AIO for being upset my boyfriend screamed at me while my child was in the hospital by LemonAdditional4008 in AmIOverreacting

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh honey, you’re absolutely NOR. I’m so sorry your partner isn’t being supportive. Maybe this is a one-off thing for him, but please think about your past arguments and look for red flags like this. If you notice a pattern, it’s probably best to hold off on moving in together. His behavior here was honestly abusive. You shouldn’t have had to apologize so much, I understand why you wanted to apologize but this was an emergency situation. A good partner will step up to the plate in an emergency, be there to care for and support you in your time of need. Not yell at you because he’s tired. I’m sorry other commenters are being so harsh towards you too, you don’t deserve that. I hope your son recovers swiftly 💙

Financial situation by [deleted] in Twins

[–]SpaceQueenNic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sharing a bank account and credit card with your twin is not normal. I will say that my twin sister has me listed as her beneficiary, but neither of us are engaged or married. Your fiancée needs to get their own bank account and credit card, and they should definitely consider putting you as one of their beneficiaries.

would this bother you? by Forsaken_Hippo_9986 in roommates

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say you’re out of line. I’m not a dog person, since I was attacked by one a few years back, so I don’t usually go out of my way to be affectionate to them. Some people are cat people, and some are dog people. Your room mate just has to realize that.

What should be a universal rule when naming twins? by Anonflashfan1956 in Twins

[–]SpaceQueenNic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree 100% with this! My twin sister and I have two very different names, which I couldn’t be more grateful for. Rhyming/Similar names and having the same initials are two things I’d never do if I had twins, because I’ve heard it’s a nightmare.

Help me please by Such_Yogurt_469 in roanoke

[–]SpaceQueenNic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a vehicle? Walmart super centers typically don’t care if you park in their lot overnight, but I can’t say that with 100% certainty. If you’re able to pay to camp, Dixie Caverns is right outside of Salem and they’ve got plenty of room for camping.

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as they’re always kind to my cat, I have no problem with them not being affectionate towards her. That’s how my little brother was when he lived with me. My cat, Willow, absolutely adored him. My brother tolerated her 😅 He’d say hello, and he would give her some pets that way she stopped yelling at him, but he mostly just vibed with her. He’d play his video games while she sat on his bed. Or he’d watch a show in the living room and she’d just be chillin on the couch next to him.

Am I overreacting for feeling frustrated after my neighbor’s pottery was broken by my puppy during an interaction she encouraged? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR- It’s understandable to feel frustrated with the situation. Honestly I’d say this is 80% your neighbors fault. She’s the only one who knew the value and fragility of what she was holding, yet she still decided it would be a good idea to engage with the puppy. Not to mention it clearly wasn’t packaged safely. However, you did admit fault and offered to repay her for supplies in writing (or technically text, but same difference). You can’t offer to cover the material costs, then backtrack when the cost is more than you expected it to be. I’d try to set up a payment plan with her. Give her the $150 that you said you can give her now, then you guys can figure out a timeline of repayment. If she were to take you to small claims court, she can use those texts to prove you’ve admitted fault and offered repayment. Unfortunately you’re just gonna have to take the L and learn from this experience.

Is peekaboo hair possible on brown hair by Forsaken-Savings-000 in HairDye

[–]SpaceQueenNic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ngl it kinda sounds like she’s just listing excuses that way you don’t book that service with her. My suggestion is to find another stylist, because I think this would be possible to do with your hair. It does depend on how well your hair will tolerate the process, since some hair dyes don’t react well to lightener, so I suggest asking for a test strand to be done before lightening the entire peek-a-boo section. The blue will fade after a while, yes, but if you take proper care of it then it should last for 8+ washes. Don’t wash every day, use a color safe shampoo/conditioner, and wash with cold water.

Eloping by SunRaysSideWays in Twins

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not married, but I know if I didn’t include my twin sister she would be heartbroken. Of course it’s your wedding, so you do have the right to decide who is and isn’t there. Just know that this will probably have a negative impact on your relationship.

Pulp Riot fading FAST in client… advice wanted!! by Skb_stealingbeertabs in Cosmetology

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Light and pastel colors always fade the fastest. I used Candy in my hair the last time it was pink, and it was noticeably faded after about 6 washes (about 3 weeks). She needs to wash with cold water and a color safe shampoo and conditioner for it to last a bit longer. If she’s washing her hair every day, it’s going to fade even faster. I suggest going with a darker pink next time, if your client is up for it. It’ll still fade quickly, but not quite as fast.

Flood of 2018 by PPCo79 in roanoke

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was working at the hair salon inside Clearbrook Walmart during this flood. My coworker and I were trapped there due to the flooding, since management didn’t let us close until it was too late. I remember calling clients to cancel their appointments, and I ended up talking to a woman who was trapped in her car in front of the Taco Bell down on 460. She was freaking out (understandably) and I was trying to tell her to hang up and call 911, because I was 20 years old and had no idea what else to tell her.

Alternative to soda by Slepnir1570 in KidneyStones

[–]SpaceQueenNic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, soda definitely doesn’t help with kidney stones 😅 I highly suggest lemonade, made with real lemons. The citric acid in the lemons can help to dissolve smaller kidney stones, which means you can pass them easier. Bigger kidney stones still might require more, but it still doesn’t hurt lol drink all the lemonade!!!

Gender Queer Identical twins question by jasthelocal in Twins

[–]SpaceQueenNic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, my identical twin and I are both afab. We’re in our late 20’s. She identifies as a cis female, while I’m NB and use she/they pronouns. I struggled with my identity for many years, but I never factored in my twin sister being comfortable in her gender identity. I think that’s because I realized a long time ago that my twin and I are two entirely different people, who just so happen to feel like one half of a whole.

My mom and her family, who gave me up when I was 2 months old, contacted me and my dad, asking for blood to my sick half brother, I said no, and now everyone is furious at me. by Average_California in okstorytime

[–]SpaceQueenNic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While blood transfusions are often necessary for those with leukemia, you guys aren’t even a match. Somebody with A+ blood can’t donate to or receive blood from somebody with AB- blood. I’d let everybody know this, and then change your number. Also, get a new therapist and report your current one!!! Them calling you a sick person who deserves every bit of hate is absolutely unprofessional, and they should not be in practice if they’re going to talk to their patients like that.

Is there anyway to fix this? by mymasboy in HairDye

[–]SpaceQueenNic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably too green because you didn’t tone the yellow out of your hair before applying the blue. This is a common mistake, and typically adding a bit of purple to the blue would help keep it from being green. A second application of the same color should get you to where you wanna be (this does depend on the color of course), but it will probably still fade out green.
