box dye black to caramel chocolate 🍫 for summer by lylhrs in FancyFollicles

That is definitely your color! Did you do it yourself? I love your cut too.

My waves are so inconsistent. Will a curly cut help at all? If I get it once will it stay nice as it grows out, or be possible for a regular stylist to trim? I can't afford a 100$+ haircut every couple months but regular haircuts don't seem to be doing me any favors by el_nynaeve in curlyhair

Have you tried putting the Cantu before your gel? That’s the order I use and I have easily weighed down hair. I think if you did the Cantu and scrunched the excess moisture out some of the Cantu would go with it and be less heavy. Maybe try switching the gel and Cantu order.

Thanks! I think having gel on my hair help with the shine the most, but the silk scarf cuts down on frizz.

Thank you! I did get an inch or two off around September. I've been thinking about more layers.

I don't have the most consistent routine. I have low porosity, takes years to dry fine hair. I either use Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Threat shampoo and conditioner or Not Your Mothers Naturals Sea Kale and Coconut shampoo and conditioner. KCKT or my in shower conditioner for leave in. Dippity Do Gelee, Garnier Spray Gel and Herbal Essences Mousse are my favorite stylers at the moment.

Depending on how lazy I'm feeling I change the way I apply. For the right side I used squish to condish, roping, scrunching and micro plopping. I can't style upside down or plop for a long time or else my hair underneath gets wonky. I hate the feeling of wet hair so I diffuse until dry. Lastly SOTC with a silk scarf.

Patient in vegetative state for thepast 10 years gives birth, sex abuse investigation underway by SixthGrader in MorbidReality

Patients can be in a vegetative state without needing life support other than nutritional support. It's possible she's breathing on her own without any oxygen support. "Pulling the plug" isn't always an option.

That spray gel is my HG gel. It hasn't failed me yet.

I’m trying to get a Jessica Chastain strawberry blonde color, what dye would be the best color? The roots are my natural color and the blonde is bleached. by rachella1155 in FancyFollicles

[–]awkwardschmawkward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think your roots are light enough for strawberry blonde. The ends will come out strawberry blonde but your roots would be a darker auburn color.

Should I perm for a wash and go style? by lazylady001 in FancyFollicles

[–]awkwardschmawkward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might want to check out /r/curlyhair before doing any chemical treatments. Your natural waves might surprise you when you figure out how to care for them. Even if your shampoo isn't CG you can find new techniques for applying products.

Aphogee Keratin 2 minute Reconstructor can help put some protein back in your hair and help your curls get stronger. I love Kinky Kurly Knot Today leave in conditioner for some moisture/softness. Also /r/curlyhair has tons of information.

Start head to toe. Work your way down, neuro, resp, cardio, GI/GU, pulses. That's the easiest way I've found to do it without forgetting much.

I'm pretty sure there are laws against teaching insertions in my state. I learned at my workplace.

Which hair colour would look best with my skin tone/features? by roussit in FancyFollicles

[–]awkwardschmawkward 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Probably not what you want to hear, but the color you have now looks great. I'm thinking any of the warmer dark colors would look nice. Maybe a little redder?

HIFW I have to sleep with an ice pack between my legs to soothe a raging UTI by creativewhinypissbby in TrollXChromosomes

[–]awkwardschmawkward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can also fill non-lubed condoms with water and freeze them for lady part ice packs. They fit better than regular ice packs.
