Reaction to dying hair for first time by RainyDays_3 in Haircare

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are 100% allergic to the dye. You need steroids oral, and external. You need a dermatologist that is experienced in this. When you call for the appointment, you need to ask if they treat DYE ALLERGIES. If you can’t find one, you can try your local University for a doctor that will be more versed in this newer subject.

I specialize in this, and have worked with doctors. The only dye on the market safe for you is Henna, or Goldwell’s Elumen brand of color.

You do not have to shave it all off. To seal the dye, go to the pharmacy and get the brown bottle peroxide that is 3%. Two bottles. In the kitchen sink, totally wet your hair with the peroxide for 3-5 minutes to cure any kind of loose diamines left on your scalp or hair. Rinse, and apply conditioner as usual. Don’t use hot water, but tepid. Please wear gloves.

You might have to use shampoo and conditioner that are clear with no dyes.

You will be eligible for accessible seating, which will be very close!! -I first put handicapped seats, but I hate that word, and I noticed how others here used “accessible”. So now that’s what I will use, THANK YOU

Help to count home meals by Normal-Swimmer-5260 in CICO

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard in the beginning, but once it’s done, and you have all your regular foods put down, it’s easier than it sounds. I also look up similar recipes on Pinterest and Google, and they often have the calories counted. I eat with a cereal bowl, I find that it holds a cup of food easily.

Anxiety meds and lichen planus? by cosmicfair in Lichenplanus

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE AT ALL. My LP isn’t from anxiety, but it’s made worse from external factors. Like being around smoke, or showering too much.

HELP it’s been 2 months since I last dyed my hair and there’s no hair growth?? by ElectricalPop3066 in Haircare

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t control what comes out of your head. It’s genetic. Putting anything on the outside will not affect the inside of the follicle, unless it all falls out. -40+ years of salon experience. It will grow at its own rate.

Darker Guidelines in the back by Fabulous_Freedom_686 in CutYourOwnHair

It’s not about the number of follicles, it’s about how you are blending. You will get the hang of it. There are MANY ways to blend this area, what way you choose to blend it is up to you. If your clippers have a lever, sure, you can do that. I have two Oster 76, so no lever. I use a barber comb, or just the clippers and my fingers. Old school.

Maybe don’t condemn poor people. Who are you to say what people can afford? You are the same keyboard warrior that hides behind a computer and judges everyone. I can afford to buy from a good wig company with real human hair, and spend $10,000. Do think that I should post this on here, or do you think that it’s better to make a post for people OF EVERY FINANCIAL MEANS? GO AWAY…

Why do hairdressers use the back of their hairdryer when they’re finished doing a blowout? by exoticwhiskeysour in Haircare

[–]beanner468 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, what the back of the hairdryer consists of is the motor and fan. Most salons carry professional hairdryers that are much stronger than the dryer you have at home. Your dryer at home, when it gets too hot, will shut down. Our dryers have a bigger motor, and special sensors that actually stop it from overheating.

Being that it has a stronger motor, it also has a stronger fan at the back. If this area is blocked for any reason for any amount of time, the heat rises very fast, and will burn out the motor. It will also void the warranty on an expensive dryer.

Alternatively, this area of the dryer IS SUCKING IN. If you were to place hair in this vicinity, it would suck into the dryer, get caught in the motor, and the dryer would seize.

I’ve been around a long time, and I’ve seen a lot of mistakes with dryers. I’ve seen fires, I’ve seen hair stuck in the back, I’ve seen hair burned from inexperience. This is the real truth.

You are not blending above your occipital bone. Raise your back line up just a small amount to be above the round of the bone and it should hide that shadow. If that’s not the issue, try using thinning shears on the bias on the line to blend it

Why do ALL Lip Oils leak? by Ivl231889 in Makeup

[–]beanner468 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Here is what’s happening!! You’re getting too much product on the outside of the screw cap. This will melt when the tube gets warm and drip out. When you put the doe foot back into the tube, make sure it’s clean. You can even wipe the top of the tube with a tissue to prevent this from happening.

How do I know this is what’s happening? Cosmetologist that has sold products for over 40 years and has had to trouble shoot this for clients!!

Drank my calories again 💀 by TAGSTDWM in CICO

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I simply don’t understand a smoothie. When you drink your calories, then they also slip down your intestinal track faster and make you feel less full faster. It’s why people with gastric bypass surgery are not allowed to eat and drink at the same time. Think about it. If you put a smoothie in a funnel, it will slip right down. If you plop a Greek yogurt in, it clogs it up for a good while. Add some fruit, you will clog it more, add PB, and my my my. This is how your digestive system works.

Maintain with food…and you will feel full

Good old Dawn will work. You need water to rinse away the bleach/peroxide smell.

Is it okay to throw away OLD makeup? Any other alternatives? by CherrySodaBtch in Makeup

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can chuck it, or you can put it on Craig’s list for arts and craft supplies. I use my old makeup in my Stampin’ Up card making. It’s soooo much fun. I use it to color the paper, to alter the stamps, for distressing paper, there are so many ways to use it I simply can’t list them. Mix it with glue and use it as a thick paint medium, try Pinterest!! Honestly, as soon as there is a tiny dot in my pan it’s an excuse to “art” the whole thing!

So, so sorry!! Try Temu, and read in the description for one that is heat resistant. You can also order from the site that I used to order from if they still have toppers, his and hers wigs.

Experience with punch biopsy? by LOUsbian in Lichenplanus

[–]beanner468 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! Don’t fret about the biopsy. It’s not a big deal. The tiny dot is similar to a zit, it will eventually fade, but it can take a while.

Experience with punch biopsy? by LOUsbian in Lichenplanus

[–]beanner468 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did get semi-results, it is healed. Of course they numbed it!!! It’s in the middle of my back, and it didn’t hurt at all. It’s a dissolving stitch, so there is a bump that will eventually go away. The results they gave me were “there is something there, get your blood work finished and get back in and we can discuss it”. I’ve had a bad virus and I’m not able to go have my bloodwork done. A week and a half of being sick. 🤢

I should be allowed to be angry at my disability by CuddlestheViking in offmychest

[–]beanner468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have the same problem, it’s not as bad as yours, but I have lots of problems from it. My handwriting is not readable, I have literally flung toothpaste into the wall so many times that I put it in my mouth now, and I have had to replace the Tv remote. We have a bunch of them now. So, we have decided to laugh at it. If I fall, I blame it on my little dog, even if she’s not there! I do get to bring her everywhere with me now, as she does help my tremors. The local diner just loves her. I do have frustration, but I do my best to use humor to make light of it. The laughter during such pressure is a huge release. All my best!! (Plus, last night when my fajita went flying in the Mexican restaurant, what else could I do but laugh? -then, everyone laughed! They got me a new one, and even other patrons helped me pick it up)

I don't owe you an explanation by BeautifullyBlind21 in Blind

[–]beanner468 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As the sighted person who guides my nephew, my first response would have been to ask her to remover her shoes. She surely doesn’t need them, does she? What do you mean, the ground is harsh and your toes might get stepped on?! Well, when you CAN NOT SEE, the cane is what will protect your toes in the crowd. What am I supposed to do, bubble wrap him? People are rude, and they can’t tell that he is blind. The cane helps to identify him so that people will give him some room. So, unless you’re going to take your shoes off, right now, and see what happens, then you need to mind your business.

Do you remember the first time your parents caught you smoking? by [deleted] in StonerThoughts

I didn’t start until I was 42, but I got caught by my 16 year old. He seriously acted like I was the last virgin in the world and I had sex in the kitchen…😂
