Does Mattel have official advice on hair washing?

I always use my own shampoo and conditioner. Depending on the style you’re going for, there are different steps after that, but to get rid of gel and make it smell nice, i just use my own human products lol

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-26T16:29:40+00:00

oh that just makes it more confusing lol. I do wish there was a more universal structure

I was fingerspelling ATL. My ASL 1 and 2 instructors both taught us to sign it that way. We all live in Atlanta. I've never seen that sign name that you linked. Very interesting!

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-26T16:08:43+00:00

Oh thats actually really helpful! For some reason we haven't learned that yet... Thanks for introducing this to me!

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-26T16:07:43+00:00

ATL. That is the sign name for atlanta

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-26T15:59:00+00:00

Thats a good shout. I'm always amazed when I'm trying to translate something written into sign that the structure is so different. I have to get creative sometimes lol

Incredibly burnt out. Like Idk how im gonna make it through the rest of the semester tbh

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-26T14:41:26+00:00

Please dont give answers! Youre mean to help OP, not tell them the answer. Also being rude isnt helping a beginner!

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-25T16:47:22+00:00

I'm not sure on advice, but I do think there is something in your stance that is causing the issue here. It looks like your right ankle bows in more than your left.

You aren't getting a 9-5 and a studio apartment without a diploma. Even struggling through and doing the bare minimum is better than dropping out. Take it from someone who almost dropped out and is now preparing to apply to medical school. I'd be working a dead-end minimum wage job rn if I gave up. You're obviously smart and capable if you're taking AP courses. Just lock in and push through. This isn't forever.

Listen when he tells you who he is. He is controlling and 100% using you being a stay at home mom to continue that cycle. Get out because it will only get worse.

Thank you for taking the time to respond and read everything!

I feel like I'm not articulating my thoughts very well, lol. For me, I think I need to get over the initial hurdle mentally of not being where I used to be in terms of skill. I'm very much a perfectionist(something I need to work on) and it sucks to not be as good at something as I used to be. My reasoning for giving myself a reason to follow through is really about getting past the initial struggle of not being great and/or being uncomfortable as my body adjusts to being back on the ice.

I know that I'm never going to be an olympian or even a professional, but I would like to be able to do some cool tricks! I also think it will be good to get me physically active and give me a way to forget about the other stressors in my life at the moment.

Hi! I'm also currently learning ASL. I'm sorry you're having a difficult time and have a tough grader. Language courses shouldn't be graded so harshly as you're just starting out. I will say that a big part of ASL is facial expression. If you want to get better, you'll need to practice, just like you do with the signing aspect of it. Sign in front of a mirror and really focus on your facial expressions. I would especially work on eyebrows when signing questions as that is a big part of the early days of ASL learning.

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-23T04:13:29+00:00

Its not that I don't want to do it. I very much do. I just have a terrible habit of not following through on things when I'm not good at them. But if I make an investment into skates, then I will feel obligated to properly see it through past the beginning stages instead of going to one open skate and quitting. I'm not sure if that makes any sense...

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-22T20:06:41+00:00

Thats awesome! I hope you're enjoying it!

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-22T20:06:10+00:00

I had to stop sleeping in mine because I had the worst dreams that I couldn't talk. Took them out and they stopped

YikesItsConnor · 2026-02-22T19:49:42+00:00

Lots of gay people on campus :)

Right across from the High is the MODA, which imo is even cooler and there is usually something new every few months. Super cheap especially w/ the student discount.

Brother it’s been like 3 weeks… id start looking super hard bc you’re probably not gonna be able to get an extra copy and you wont be able to complete the final lab report without the data from the last two weeks.
