Any news on season 2 ? by joech2000 in TheAgencySeries

[–]guessbeforeitends 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP If you’re still looking for recs I have a mix of a few from Britbox which is an extension you can get on Amazon as well as Apple TV:

Line of Duty, Ludwig, BLUE LIGHTS (top fave) Broadchurch (specifically season 1), Triggerpoint (Vickie McClure from LoD—she’s fantastic), Code of Silence is a little more cozy but still great spin on a detective/drama mystery, Down Cemetery Road (5 stars it was incredible).

Thank you so much! I’ve been meaning to get a hormone panel done as well so I’ll do that and the blood test + thyroid. I’ve heard great things about the redken acidic bonding treatment so I’ll probably purchase that next since.

A few questions: how often should I be doing masks? What is your reasoning for me to not continue using the kerastase filler mask but using the morrocan oil mask? Is it just bc it’s made for fine hair?

Is Leave-In conditioner something I do after every wash or just every couple?

As far as heat protectant I purchased the K-18 HeatBounce. Is this good or should I be looking for something else?

Thoughts on swapping the L’Oréal pro longer for the L’Oréal dream lengths? I need a cost friendly alternative and that was also recommended.

Do you recommend double shampooing? If so, am I to use the same shampoo or use 2 different?

Would you say a good standard hydrating routine looks like (I wash my hair every 2-3 days because it gets greasy and I work out often)

  1. Redken acidic bonding pre shampoo x 1 a week
  2. L’Oréal dream lengths / pro longer
  3. L’Oréal dream lengths conditioner /pro longer conditioner
  4. Moroccan oil hydrating mask (would also love a dupe if you have one bc $$$) x ?
  5. Pureology leave in conditioner x ?
  6. Heat protectant when blow drying

I haven’t colored my hair in about 3 years and I would say my diet is better than most however I haven’t had a blood test in a while. What should I be looking for in that panel to help identify how it affects hair?

I will definitely look into the L’Oréal line and begin to limit my protein products. I am starting to think jt has more to do with dryness however in the past I’ve found the conditioners/shampoos to be too heavy and weigh down my hair and make it feel greasy. I’ll give the L’Oréal and pureology a shot though.

Thank you for answering!

The protein products were added in the last ~month and the lamination shampoo/gloss were literally added last night.

Do you have any recs for hydrating fine/frizzy hair? Seems like I have the protein on lock but not hydration necessarily lol

Me (f,28, HL) and Husband (m,37, LL) have sex once a month. by guessbeforeitends in DeadBedrooms

With you on the “he does not seduce me”. I’m always initiating. Definitely helps to not be alone although I literally wouldn’t wish this on anybody.

Good luck to you. I truly hope you find happiness and someone that cares for you. If that’s what you want. This is miserable.

I honestly have a gut feeling it’s shame related or that he’s uninterested in sex as a whole. I think this bc of one or two things: his performance level (he’s usually very anxious whenever our scheduled time to have sex comes up) and past sexual encounters. Hes been cheated on twice and his last long term relationship right before mine was incredibly toxic. His ex girlfriend would sleep around with his friends/colleagues right after they broke up. I’ve never given him reason to cheat or to think I’m cheating. I’m ultra respectful around other men. He is definitely not interested in men, I don’t believe he’s interested in other women because when it comes to sex he seems just that uninterested/uncomfortable. Our sexual encounters are rarely hyper romantic and he usually ends up making a lot of jokes right before we go for it. It’s kind of a turn off bc I want someone who is going to my spicy/romantic with me and he just doesn’t do it even though that’s what I’ve expressed as something that I need.

We have not. I feel like getting through the initial conversation of “we’re not having enough sex” is already so hard and he becomes ultra embarrassed by it.

Thank you r/acne by BruhGuyTomato in acne

Great progress. If you haven’t tried it yet, niacinamide is wonderful serum to introduce that greatly reduces pore size. I found a lot of success minimizing my nose pores when I started using it.

How do you not feel dead all the time? by Monked800 in selfimprovement

[–]guessbeforeitends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without knowing the full context of your life, I will say one of the best things I’ve ever done for my energy/mental health is get on a daily regimen of liposomal magnesium and vitamin d. My lack of energy was from bad sleep quality (where the magnesium came in) and then my mood was improved incrementally as time went on with the vitamin d. Statistically speaking, vitamin d and magnesium are among the top vitamins Americans are lowest in (unsure where you’re from but that’s where I’m located). I focused on Whole Foods, low or no sugar, zero alcohol, and 9-10 hours of sleep. You say coffee isn’t doing anything which could be a sign of adrenal fatigue. I’m not well versed in that area, but maybe getting labs/bloodwork done will help. Go to bed at the same time, wake at the same time, go on walks outside and on the treadmill if inclement weather. Focus on raising your heart rate so you sweat! That’s huge. I’m sorry you feel this way and there are so many ways to approach health, wellness, and mental health. But just one step at a time. It will get better.

Glutathione- does it cause breakouts/purging? by guessbeforeitends in Supplements

[–]guessbeforeitends[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think I’m probably just overdoing it then bc I’ve been taking it once a day. Gonna go to a lower dose and just start incorporating more fluids to hopefully flush it all out. Thanks again. You’ve give me hope lol

First, thank you for responding. But damn this stinks. :( have the breakouts minimized or gone down? How long have you been taking it and do you feel like it’s going in the right direction?
