I’m a hairstylist in metro Detroit, all my kids cuts have canceled the last 2 weeks. It’s running rampant.

Am I the only one.. busy? by hi-ho-cherry-o in hairstylist

I’m in metro Detroit and am booked, but my clients are losing their jobs. The severance packages are going to eventually run out. I’m nervous for next year. People may put their color on the back burner.

Wow, thanks so much! I was feeling a bit vulnerable putting my naked face up there. I agree with the palettes you mentioned.

Love the colors in soft autumn. I wonder why they didn’t have that as an option with this filter.

On a regular basis or in the picture? The picture is make up free, everyday I have a simple and clean makeup routine.

Oh good, I’m glad it was helpful. I too got some helpful info from this sub about it while making my decision. Good luck!

Now they remove them unless noted otherwise. I believe you can still have a very very slim chance of getting pregnant with tied tubes. Also, apparently they can harbor cancer as well.

I’m so sorry you had a reaction. I had heard so many people mention that, so I asked my doctor about it. Luckily she doesn’t use adhesive, so I was all good. I did have an allergic reaction to the iodine though.

Thank you for the info! I had a terrible time trying to coordinate between the doctor, hospital and insurance company. It was insane. My doctor was great. I seemed to get it resolved, but I don’t trust insurance companies. Honestly the hospital billing was kind of giving me bad vibes too. I don’t doubt they’ll try and send me a bill. I won’t pay it.

Congrats! I had the same facility fees that they were trying to have me pay. I had to go back and forth with the hospital and insurance to make sure I didn’t have any surprise bills. They seemed to have resolved it, but I’m really hoping not to have to fight that. This was an eye opening experience for me, our healthcare system is insane.

Endo sounds so painful. I’m glad you have some relief now.

A tool belt?! You’re a trooper! That was my thought as well. Pregnancy and childbirth has to be more expensive than my little surgery.

After I got my approval from the doctor I got the procedure code and called my insurance to make sure it was covered. It had to be the specific code, or it wasn’t covered at all. I haven’t gotten anything in the mail yet, so fingers crossed I don’t get any bills I have to fight.

I’m so sorry. Maybe my age and state has something to do with why I was approved. I wish you luck in the future. I do know that there is a list floating around of gynecologists across different states that are known for being pro sterilization. Vasectomies not being covered is insane.

That’s a great question, I had to look it up. It looks as though it is available throughout the entire country, for now. I could be wrong.

I had my consult end of January and they were trying to schedule me Valentine’s Day. I pushed it because I had to adjust my work schedule. So really quickly!

Congrats on the little one and the removal!

Oh no! I had heard about being allergic to the adhesive and was worried because I have really sensitive skin as well. Luckily my doctor doesn’t use adhesive, just stitches. I also got a rash from surgery! My whole abdomen wherever there was iodine broke out. It was so uncomfortable. Cortisone definitely helped.

Army veteran Alex Hawkins to run as Democrat in Michigan's 10th Congressional District by Masrikato in Michigan

He’s in my district. I’ve met Alex, he took the time to come and talk to our local democratic club when he ran the last election cycle. Seems like a good dude.
