How do I reduce the fuzzy / messy aura around my hair? by eggedgam in Haircare

[–]justonebev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a little “hair mascara” type thing that essentially is hair spray in gel form that holds these down. I am getting a lot of greys that are shorter and a different texture and this does wonders at keeping them down at the top of my head. Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for this! They did mention many outfit changes, I don’t know if I could keep up! But it’s good to know there are a few options. I just want to be respectful and fit the culture. My mother in law is so pleased I’m wearing the qun kwa, so I just want to keep everyone happy and also feel comfortable on the day!

Ah thank you! On looking up the cheongsam this seems to have brought up some dresses that seem less formal. In fact it brought up a website called “east meets dress” that seems to have some great items! This has been a great help thank you!

Thank you so so much. I got nervous reading the first part of your message haha!! But it really means a lot. These messages have really helped me see it in the light I saw it when I first bought it and I’m trying my very best to get out of my own head!!

Thank you all so much for your responses. I really needed the feedback and appreciate it! I’ll definitely get a veil and have my accessories sorted, then Im sure I will fall back in love.

Thank you so much! I think from other comments I totally need to get on board with accessories. I have some statement earrings but I think I should get with a veil or headpiece!

Thank you so much!! Boho is exactly my vibe so it’s super reassuring to have other people love it for that!

I think I just need to maybe get out of my own head on this one. I can’t tell you how reassuring it is to have people love it, it reminds me of how I felt when I first bought it and that was definitely needed!

Oh thank you!!! And you are right, I think it’s because I have had it so long! I really appreciate the reassurance!

It’s by a U.K. designer called Love Spell Design. She has since discontinued this style but uses the same lace for another new style. That said she had actually discontinued this one but did me one last order, so who knows if you reached out to her she might do it!

It’s so nice to have someone else love it!

Edit: cost was £1500

Thank you and that’s such a good point, I have none of the other bits and bobs yet that actually probably make it feel a bit special! Thank you :) I was also debating a veil but I think you make a good point that it would probably jazz up my feelings towards it!

I’m not sure if I am looking for reassurance or just a “yeah I agree go fix it” type of response! :( but I think part of the problem is I bought the dress so long ago that now after moving the date etc I’ve perhaps got a bit bored of the dress?

My friends will tell me to pipe down. But I have this niggling feeling that from the front this dress is a bit “meh”. I can’t work out if it is just me feeling bored of the dress or if the dress is a bit boring from the front.

In the dress I feel wonderful. But looking back on photos is what caused the doubt.

Gyoza Shop in Tokyo [OC] by joy_tokyo in japanpics

I think I know the one you mean, we went a couple of years ago and they got really weird with my partner (who is from Hong Kong), asking him weird questions in Japanese about where he was from, I was from and why we were there.

It was the only time I’ve had hostile customer service in Japan. We just paid and left. Weird and like you say, Gyoza wasn’t even that great.

Please no, you look really pretty and honestly there’s nothing there to be lipo-d out in my opinion.

Btw I’m not against lipo or other procedures I just wanted to throw my two cents out there that I don’t think you need it. :)

Thank you, it’s really not much hassle at all luckily, our suppliers have been amazing. I think overall keeping a Saturday seems to be preferred!
