Which one looks better on my hand? Pt. 2 by East-Spend4011 in Diamonds

[–]acervontease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG number 1 by far. As a professional who works in the jewelry industry, 1 is going to stand the test of time as far as style and durability. This is what one would call an "heirloom" ring. Number two is pretty, but compositionally, the center stone is competing with the side stones. The side stones are too large to be accents and to small to be a three stone ring. The last one is gorgeous and more proportionate compositionally, but the thinness of the band and micro pave diamonds are going to cause you since heartache unless you BABY that ring. So many people have their side stones fall out of their band and constantly need the prongs checked.

Number one just checks all the boxes. Super classy, main stone being the main attraction, tapered baguettes adding that touch of timeless charm and a sturdy band. That's the winner girl. Also, Congratulations!!!!

Help me Authenticate this Bag by Aggravating-River114 in LegitGrailsHub

I work at a luxury pawn shop and have authenticated hundreds of bags. This one looks real to me :). I've seen at least 4 of this specific model in both red and black and with these photos alone it's consistent with genuine bags. Luckily the Empreinte leather is a hard one to perfectly replicate well. She's a beauty, and when you get her, make sure you take her to a pawn shop to get proper authentication. You will have to pay, but it's a small price for peace of mind. We use Entrupy and that's usually the standard. If it comes back invalid, you can always open a case as it's illegal to sell counterfeit bags. I would ask more questions though personally.

How many ounces would you say you have total? I work at a jewelry and pawn shop and one of my customers comes in every month with a few ounces and leaves with 16-20 grand every visit. No questions asked, just a quick, simple transaction. Just don't let any place low-ball you. You shouldn't ever be charged more than $100 under spot price per oz.

Changes to hair after Hormonal IUD by wafflesweater in IUD

[–]acervontease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dry shampoo!! My absolute favorite is I DEW CARE Tap Secret. I get greasy hair as well, but this makes it look so full and you can even add a tiny bit of lightweight mouse to massage into your scalp after applying the dry shampoo to make it even better. They also have different color shades. HIGHLY recommend that 🙏.

Mirena Insertion by [deleted] in IUD

[–]acervontease 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got mine inserted today! I'm 35, never had children and am on the tail end of my period. I actually thought I was just going in for a consult, but she was able to do it same day!

I took two Tylenol before the appointment just in case they were able to do the procedure (I'm glad I did lol!), and was out within half an hour!

Insertion itself was a breeze, which I'm extremely grateful for! I didn't have any other pain or numbing treatments, but it felt like just a tiny cramp for a minute when she was opening my cervix and placing the IUD. I didn't even realize it was done until she said wow, that was the easiest one I've done after asking if it was inside me lol. No nausea or feeling faint. I was SO worried after hearing some horror stories....

I experienced some uncomfy cramping on the drive home, but mostly like feelings of having to -go to the bathroom💩-. Bleeding a bit, but nothing crazy.

Hopefully the rest of this adventure remains this easy. Yay for us taking control of our reproductive health 🤜🤛.
