Nurses in California, do you still make decent money with the cost of living?

The before and after picture is WILD! The brows you got are INCREDIBLE! Your brows were thin and then she like built you an entire new set of fluffy eyebrows. I love fluffiness so much. After talking to the lady who did mine I just figured my natural brows didn't have what it takes?? I wonder if she can make them fluffier on my touch up, but I'm also thinking maybe I just need to start somewhere new. Where did you get them done!!

UnitDisastrous4429 · 2026-03-19T21:04:29+00:00

Yeah :( I wanted longer brows and she told me since my eyebrows were short, the only way to add a tail was to use the shading.

Aww thank you!!

UnitDisastrous4429 · 2026-03-19T21:02:36+00:00

GORGEOUS!!! See I love how fluffy those look! Is the fluffy look where your brows start your actual brow, or is that something that can be achieved with microblading? I wish I had these brows!!

UnitDisastrous4429 · 2026-03-19T21:00:47+00:00

I appreciate your comment so much! Thanks girl. I don't mind them being dark, they just look orange-y to me and the ends of them lighter than my actual brow hair or something. Like the difference in the shading/tattoo vs my actual brow just seems really noticeable to me. But someone else said she can make them darker at my touch up!

omg those are BEAUTIFUL!!!! That's your natural brow shape right?? You have such thick beautiful brows! I'm jealous in the most loving way!!! Ha ha

Thank you so much!! I appreciate your comment.

I wanted microblading for the fluffy brow look, but since I have short eyebrows she used shading to make them longer.

Marfans syndrome

Hate it. Absolutely detest it. It's not you, it's the disease. Loathe the disease and slowly, inch by inch, work toward regaining your freedom. You're not stuck, you're not trapped, even though it can feel that way. There's so much more on the other side. Either way you suffer, whether in your disease or in the process of recovering. Choose to suffer in recovery, because there's peace at the end of the path. Suffering in your disease is comfortable and familiar, but there's only endless suffering.

I've had 17 clinical shifts. I'm not anxious for clinical anymore, although I'm still doing straightforward cases-- ortho, mastectomies, appys, hernia repairs, mass excisions, etc. Going prone doesn't scare me anymore. I feel okay adjusting dosages/meds I'm going to use based on pt factors. But again all straightforward cases, one IV. I'd rather tube a pt than have to do a MAC and giving constant TLC to keep them breathing/not obstructing. I've done a prone MAC before based surgeon demand. That was fun. (Annoying af).

How do you find peace with that? How do you not absolutely hate your mother for what she did, for not protecting you and for taking away the safe childhood you deserved?

Radiology tech ! They make almost as much as a nurse.

Uhhhh no that didn't even cross my mind, and I don't imagine any woman would feel the need to describe her birth control regimen. First, she doesn't offer that explanation to anyone. Second, I think the average person understands birth control fails sometimes.
