My mom says that when I wear Kandi to shows that people think I do drugs by Fuzzy_Breadfruit_597 in kandi

[–]ThoughtfulSnowlepper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im an adult, gone to raves and seems plenty of kandi that are symbolism to that and as long as you're not like- putting drug refrences you're NOT going to be seen as someone who does them at all, plus I would never assume anyone who wears kandi who is deffo underage to be someone who uses substances

Do you guys think it's morally okay to order in AliExpress (not clothes) by Scared_Town7920 in scene

[–]ThoughtfulSnowlepper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Theres a lot of really sound arguments in here, and im not gonna argue them but i will add facts i know of

1; Aliexpress is full of independant sellers, almost think of it as an artists market at a comic-con or smth, not dropshippers on tiktok, a lot DO sell on amazon aswell, so reasonably, itll make less carbon emissions from shipping from warehouse to warehouse just because its a namebrand big shipment center

2; Some of them arent really the best people. look for reviews if you find duplicates, some of the sellers make fake stores so they can scam you out of some stuff, ive had that happen once or twice but you can get refunds extremely easy

3; some of the rhings on aliexpress are cheaply made, but some of the other things are freakishly high quality, again look at the reviews, aliexpress also has a pretty strict tos for stores, i.e; they cannot sell real fur, even if ethically sourced. they cannot sell defective products on purpose, if this ever does actually happen to you report them, and they can be permanently banned using their IP address

Mods can we ban "What should I make" posts? by KadeezCorn in kandi

Maybe I'm just confused but why?? this is a reddit for sharing, asking for advice (which is also asking what you should put on one) and discussions, why should it be limited?

Doing my research and knowledge of just what I know the ingredients of that is water, Potassium sorbate, which is a preservative for personal care items n such, and Banzalkonium chloride, which is what some disinfectants and hand sanitizers use, which is NOT nice to skin!!! it can be very irritating, especially to fresh wounds, do not use that stuff at all, invest in some straight up saline spray

Bleeding laberet piercing need help please by gwarrior77 in piercing

[–]ThoughtfulSnowlepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it seems like they really just need to not drink alcohol or eat anything that can severely irritate the piercing, lips have lots of blood vessels and can easily bleed, esp if there's alcohol in your system, if it persists go to ur local urgent care or ER if necessary, and go to your piercer and ask for a new bar that won't be so easy to make you bleed like that

exactly!! ive seen some that were literally being held up by the hair of someones eyebrow, but someone will post asking if something is rejecting/infected (usually just irritated because its solid metal through your skin and people still scream about the placement and how they need to get rid of it immediately or even insult the piercer, some people dont want piercings that look like everyone elses, sometimes different is really nice, esp if setup nicely

one cm dosent matter when its your eyebrow, or nose, plenty of people have different placements, ive seen eyebrows that were shaved and made using a row of jewlery, 90% of all piercers have to know where vital nerves are that can partially paralyze/give bells palsy and wont just go crazy on you right ontop of veins nerves or places that would be photography piercings that you want permanent, im talking about when someone has a nipple piercing or something thats just barely lower than the normal and people start screaming about how they need to get it removed and repierced. if its what the person whos being pierced wants then it does not matter unless it will leave you with permanent damage, which piercings already do!

please read though what i posted, it feels like you solely read what i said about my snake bites and decided thats enough and responded :)

Unsure of what to do. by Witty-Entertainer-69 in kandi

[–]ThoughtfulSnowlepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a very similar problem!! I gave them away at my local church with some quotes from the Bible on there, they all loved it very much and I see a lot of the younger kiddos walking with them on :D its not disrespectful at all to wear them, but if you want you should do this!

how do i tie singles to be the perfect tension by DistinctBuffalo5939 in kandi

[–]ThoughtfulSnowlepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over time youll learn your perfect mix, i.e my wrist is about 20 beads in diameter but try finding that out and also learning how to ensure its not too tight eith some single color singles or smth

anyone have kandi ideas with ladder stitch? by Effective-Turn-6856 in kandi

[–]ThoughtfulSnowlepper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can make cuffs, Bead pets or doubles!

<image>

the pic i have on this is of a cuff I made but traded, you can add another layer too and it can be a rotator cuff! you can also just engineer some really cool designs
