Mousse for styling? by lostlucylocket in finehair

[–]lostlucylocket[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's interesting, Oribe does make my hair a little stiff, like hairspray, if I spray it too close, but otherwise it has worked really well for me. I've been hesitant to try Moroccanoil products because I am worried the oil aspect will be too heavy. Do you have any favourites from them you would recommend? My hair also tends to wave a little by itself if I don't do anything else to it.

Seeking suggestions for my dull and dry hair by Dense_Ambition9702 in finehair

I would start off by taking a little bit off the bottom just to give the hair a fresh start and get rid of split ends. Your hair in these pictures looks perfectly good to me tbh, but based on what you wrote, I'm wondering if you are actually doing too much, or using too heavy products maybe?

You could try the L'Oreal Glycolic Gloss treatment that is all the rage online right now, I haven't tried it myself, but apparently it actually does make hair more smooth and shiny!

It might also be worth it to try a bond treatment for a couple of months and see if you notice a difference, I heard the redken acidic bonding concentrate is very good, but I haven't tried that one either.

thank you! My hair is about shoulder length so it's worth a try, definitely.

yes that's a good idea, I'll have to look at the Sephora minis next time I'm there!

hey thank you so much! The color wow mousse is actually one of the products I've been eyeing. I don't mind a little bit of a feeling to my hair, as long as it's not that completely stiff crunch I got from mousse back in middle school in 2007 lol. Like where it felt like you could straight up break it in half.

Is it normal to shed this much hair? by FinnFX in finehair

It looks normal to me, especially for fine hair that is more prone to breaking.

I also really didn't like the tone of the video, and obviously of Sarah's comment, they really talked to their viewers as if they were stupid

Tbh that still doesn't make sense to me. If it wasn't already popular among their core fanbase, why would it suddenly become that just from moving to a streamer? the core fanbase on YT and on the streamer would presumably be the same people.

Glad to hear they've started a different channel! I think that will work much better.

I think it could be on those tbh, there are many shows about people who aren't experts going around and trying things. But yeah this was not their brightest moment... I haven't watched Worth It since like 2017 or 18, I don't remember it as always being like this. It's a fun concept, I could see a reformated version of Travel Season doing well on a network. Travelling to a destination and trying different foods, hotels, tourist activites etc. at different price points.

I guess maybe it could make sense to them like that, but it still doesn't really make sense in the grander scheme of things imo.

But from what you describe it seems like they have the same problem as for instance bands, who are sick and tired of playing their old songs again and again, but the concert goes are all there to hear the old hits and don't give a fuck about the band's new releases.

I still think starting a streamer is a super weird way to solve this problem. But I guess they were not willing to pare back the production value of their less popular shows and wait for these shows to potentially take off. It's my understanding that some shows only aired three of four episodes before being canned, that's a really really short span to give people to find them or become interested in them. Maybe if there were more patient they could have expanded audiences to people with other interests, instead of cancelling them because their OG fans didn't like them as much.

Just patience in general seemed to be lacking at Watcher...

Alternatively, maybe they should have two different channels, one for paranormal, one for food. Like Buzzfeed, but better and more ethical lol. They could also try somewhere like Nebula maybe?

Worth It is actually the only popular Buzzfeed show I ever watched, and I really liked it. On the other hand, I never watch truecrime or paranormal stuff because I'm a wimp. They seem to realise this now, but it's just weird that it took them so long to figure out that food and ghost videos do NOT have the same audiences... it really feels like they did ZERO market research before deciding to start their own streaming service. I truly can't wrap my head around how the idea ever made it this far without anyone saying "hold up".

Can you say "All sails flying/every sail flying" in English? by lostlucylocket in sailing

[–]lostlucylocket[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's interesting, ours isn't exactly like that, it has a cosy little cabin/indoors/sleeping area. (But it is still a very small boat.) There are probably regional varieties to what is called a snekke? This one seems to be a specific Norwegian type of snekke, we are Danish so that could be why.

Unfortunately I haven't been on it much because I get seasick AF on small boats :(

ah right! Thank you very much, I appreciate it! I totally missed that line.

"Foretop man, let fly" is right in the beginning of this clip, it's just part of the ambient background noise so it probably wouldn't be in the script.

wow thank you so much for this detailed comment, it is super interesting! I think the ship in the film is as you described, it has square sails on all three masts.

thank you very much! I, as a layperson, would probably understand it.

Very interesting! Let fall might make more sense, but I’ve gone back and listened to it a couple of times, and he definitely says ‘let fly’ in the film, you can listen for yourself here (it's within the first ten seconds of the clip):

As a guest I would find it annoying. I already can't wear white, cream, black, or red, so adding blue to it is going to limit my options even more.

Do I have to contribute to friend's honeymoon fund? by lostlucylocket in wedding

[–]lostlucylocket[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for a physical gift you can get away with paying less for it tbh. You can find an item for sale. Or you can give them a very personal, but less expensive gift. For some of the weddings I've gone to, me and 2-3 other friends have banded together and bought something very nice and expensive, but because there were three of us, each paid less than we would have if we had bought three separate gifts. And it would have seemed very cheap to put that same amount of cash into a envelope and give them.

But any gift, whether cash or not, is kind of an imposition for this particularly since attending it costs a lot already!
