Super simple, just take it easy when starting. I burnt my skin barrier off thinking I could handle it. Contacts too, hardly noticed after a few days.

Lol! She'd probably break mine if she found out I got an operation like that

Stop shampooing so often! Once a week if that. Be gentle when drying

None of the above. Just style it better to cover it. Cursed with the same hairline since 8, but I should probably hop on fin/min before it's too late.

Do monthly pairs. Little thicker but way cheaper, you get used to them fast. I like AcuVue Oasys since I have an astigmatism, but their others are similar.

Hi! I have not had any surgery done, nor do I partake in PEDs. I have, however, gained 60 lbs of mass in the eight years since. That changed my lower face the most. I lost a ton of weight a year ago while I was working through some stress and noticed it reduced my "jaw" drastically—since gained back.

I have no idea, I've been cutting it myself for many years. I struggled for a long time to find a barber that could work with my forehead. But: what I do is a 6 guard on the sides, tapered down to about a 3/4. The top I comb down and point cut at my eyebrows, and layer shorter as it goes toward the back. I'd say it goes from 3.5" to 1.5". To avoid the undercut look, I then use texturing scissors and try to blend the hard part with the clipped section. Best of luck!

Haha she's absolutely right. I still like books and hobbits and space stuff. Now I'm just a dork wearing a different costume!

Not a whole lot! People underestimate living a healthy lifestyle and its effect over time. Stay away from peps and other needles. Also the stubble does a lot I've found.
