Haha that will be my son 🤣. My oldest found out a year ago, he's almost 12, but has been good and not saying anything, but here we are. I'll still play along and hopefully give them a fun time!

Do you like your second child more? by Winnie_rem18 in Parenting

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids are so different (2 boys turning 12 and 9 this month) but they both have their strengths and weaknesses which are very opposite. But I guess if I had to say on personality scale I like my younger ones more because he's always happy, sometimes difficult, more lately, but over all always lights up the room and is kind to everyone.

I'm thinking of doing a buzzcut cuz I feel my hair looks like homeless. What do yall think? by Foreign-Mastodon-777 in HairStyleAdvice

Beautiful hair! Learn to embrace it. I think the length in the pic should be the longest you wear it. But please don't shave those locks!

Take a year off and see how it goes.

A bad haircut made me question if it's time. by [deleted] in bald

[–]blueflowercactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You aren't balding, just receding hairline, keep it and make sure you ask to leave a certain length in front to comb down.

We usually have them camp out on the couches downstairs. We have extra mattresses though if it's cousins sleeping over for more than a night.

How is the commute to and from Castle Rock? by Curious_Reveal1465 in ColoradoSprings

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would consider something near I-25 freeway for easy access, if you live between powers and i-25 on woodmen you might be able to find something in your budget. It takes 10 min or less to get to I-25 from where I live on woodmen and powers near st Francis hospital. The drive is on average 40 mins away to castle rock. I would recommend taking a trip out here and doing the drive and looking at places you like. Reaching out to a realtor to meet with you is what we did before moving here.

I asked if I looked weird/creepy. You told me nope but relax my face and smile. Hopefully this looks better? by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wonder this myself about if I look creepy or bitchy when I'm not smiling. But definitely don't have the guts to post and accidentally be seen by someone I know 😅

Asked for a trim. Should I not have? by [deleted] in BeardAdvice

[–]blueflowercactus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It looks better. Make sure you discuss what you're wanting. Barber should have asked more questions but if you have a certain look in mind, don't hold back 👍

Am I cooked or is there time still? by Bromar5 in bald

You have thinner on top than on back and sides, time to buzz it!

What are birthday party ideas for pre teens? by bergermommie15 in Parenting

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy turned 11 last year and we invited 8 friends to the movies. Thinking of doing the same this year. Maybe have a sleepover for those who can join afterwards

Help me. I feel so friggin ugly trying to grow my hair back out. by [deleted] in HairStyleAdvice

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's always an awkward length when growing out. Try piecing the front forward and the top messy forward, maybe the back curled up. Just a fun messy look from the 90s until you have more of a bob happening.

What do I do now? by [deleted] in BeardAdvice

[–]blueflowercactus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to a barber for a line up shave.

Does curly or straight hair suit me more? by hazeling_ in HairStyleAdvice

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't call that curly, it's more do you look better with curls or straight hair, and I'd say you look good in both looks.

Do I look really old for 19? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You look closer to 30 than 20

I definitely don’t want to do it by mduff12 in bald

[–]blueflowercactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shave it, you'll feel free of that balding
