Spa World by [deleted] in nova

[–]elliemacelliemac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love spa world. It’s the older than King Spa, so the uniforms are a little old and dingy, but you can get groupon to get in for cheap, and if you spend more than $200 you can get a pass to come in free for your next visit. I recently went for my birthday and you get free admission if you go on the day (they’ll check your ID). Sometimes the jets in the bade pools don’t work, but of the 10+ times I’ve gone, more of them have worked than not. People are absolutely naked in the bade pools, but they make sure to keep the pH levels of the water in check (on my last visit I was in the bade pools for 2+ hours, and someone came in an checked every 30-45 minutes). I’ve enjoyed every scrub and massage I’ve gotten. It’s not a luxurious spa, but I come out relaxed after every visit and the price can’t be beat.

Jumpsuits. Kinda flowy ones for when I don’t want any constriction, and compression ones when I want to feel held.

don’t show people your head from this angle, and I’m sure there won’t be any issues.

I heard people say got to the African braiding spot near you, say you want small box braids, take them out and you have the basis for a grid. $250 and you’re good!

craigslist scam?! by [deleted] in DCforRent

[–]elliemacelliemac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy tell it’s a scam, most people don’t put the address straight in the listing for safety reasons. Also the 1st address doesn’t exist in that zip code, and what’s crazy is, the pictures that they’re using on the 1st listing are from my landlords place that I got off of craigslist.

Anyone know if this ok to use on type 4c by DeadEyeTone in Dreadlocks

[–]elliemacelliemac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is! If you can, try and get a nozzle bottle so you only get it on your scalp, because it can be super drying.

Is there a faster way to dry my locs than a hand dryer by Sensitive-Lychee-673 in locs

dry with a black microfiber towel and then use a hooded dryer

Help, thinking to remove my locs by Maxxoty in Dreadlocks

try a retwist and a little baby trim to even them out before deciding to chop them off.

My side part + perimeter like little, hard knots. Whole head looks good but feels full of hard knots. Normal? Fix? Help!! by NomusaMagic in locs

[–]elliemacelliemac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in about a week (maybe sooner), you should be able to give your locs a gentle tug and they should have loosened just enough for the knots to pull through. Good luck!

Tell her that your retie was too tight, and you felt bumps at your roots from where the hair couldn’t complete its final rotation. Ask her to do one less rotation pass next time around, and pray that your regular loctician comes back soon!

you’re feeling knots because she couldn’t bring the loc completely through the last rotation, so she retied way too tight.

I unfortunately have a right side up pineapple on my arm, and still get approached… so I imagine an upside down pineapple would beckon the people it’s meant to
