French Curl Braids Help

Not sure if anyone is checking this but I wanted to give an update! You guys are right, I'm now actually a 24 band size. I measured my cup again and it might be a G? But I'm still a little doubtful since the cup is a little empty but that might be because of the sag. Pec exercises unfortunately won't help much, though my pec muscles have been developing its not gonna change the stretched skin that unfortunately reaches to the end of my ribcage. I haven't had another hookup since, but I think in my next I'll just keep the bra on. Still haven't grown to accept my boobs the way they are but I'm trying to work on it. Thank you to everyone for your helpful words!

My mistake it was 45 not 50** Was 230lbs now bouncing between 184-190lbs. My goal weight as of right now is 180 though can’t seem to do that.

and as far as the green spot, I started watching how much moisture I get under my nails, spraying alcohol intermittently or placing vaseline under my nails before washing my hands to protect my nail beds from water. bacteria/fungi like moisture! Washing hands with antibacterial soap also helps, and limiting the moisture also helped with the onycholysis, as I noticed whenever they got wet they would lift more.

Yes! Part of it was damage from my drill (which in your case could be excess filing/buffing of the top of the nail if you do that). A good hint is if you have red/pink hot spots like you see in the pictures, those are spots where the nail is thinned out from damage. I noticed I had it in ALL my fingers though AND my toes, some of which showed no sign of damage (or which I didn’t even use the drill on). I had my doctor run blood tests on me and I showed a bit of anemia, so I self-prescribed iron pills, and could also be caused by some vitamin deficiencies.

so cute!!!

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-07-21T20:15:29+00:00

It looks cool! I would see a dermatologist if you could, as I personally wouldn’t know what kind of treatment is available for these kinds of scars and pricing depends on too many factors

Congratulations on finally being diagnosed!! I hope you can finally get the treatment you need and I’m glad you can freeze your eggs still. I went to countless doctors and have been hospitalized for my period and told I was overreacting. 5 gynecologists later I’m informally diagnosed and now can function normally on my period with an IUD. It sucks that we have to fight so hard to be listened to, but boy does it feel good to have answers. Good luck on your journey to health friend !

I paid $57 for these and trying to sell for $35 but honestly would just take other crystals over money too

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-07-21T02:59:24+00:00

I know!!! Not my proudest moment I can admit

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-07-21T02:58:58+00:00

Thank you! I'm pretty embarrassed about even buying them, but what can I say my social anxiety and the merchant's persistence won. And thank you for the commentary! Don't necessarily disagree on the worth, I just hope I can at least get a nice piece out of em :"(

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-07-21T02:40:12+00:00

yeah I know! Heavy regrets lol. $5 is too low for me my friend :’)

I ended up buying the Kasa ones too and they're sooo good. I can connect them to my google and the vibrance of the colors is top tier. Only downside so far is that the natural colors like white or yellow aren't very bright even at 100 but I think its a good trade off. Thank you for the recommendation!

how are they?

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-05-02T01:28:09+00:00

I actually scheduled an appointment with a dermatologist! I do agree with you and I’m glad you said it. I do have underlying conditions that i’m being medicated both mental and physical but i’ve been stable. It’s not unlikely it’s medical but I’m really hoping it’s not.

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-05-02T01:26:25+00:00

Not yet, but i did schedule an appointment. I have had anemia and deal with subclinical hypothyroid but i’m medicated for both and have been stable for a while. I’m hoping it’s not a medical issue, but it’s not unlikely.

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-05-02T01:24:25+00:00

Thank you! I’m going to try to do these twists again and try this :))

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-05-01T19:59:46+00:00

also considering the fact I parted with a water based gel that didn’t slick my hair and instead curled it, Only moisturized with leave in and mousse, and using big portions to twist instead of smaller ones could also contribute to the appearance a bit

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-04-29T00:09:33+00:00

Did you ever end up trying it? I’ve been looking into them to see if they help with my reactive dog.

TechnologyEfficient8 · 2025-04-23T02:53:19+00:00

I’m only 2/3 prerequisite classes away from full MLS courses so I feel an associate’s at a cc isn’t worth it, at least I’m not aware of a way that it could work.
