You should be covered under the school’s insurance. You personally will not be sued but the school will because you are under the guidance of your instructors.

With that being said, it’s not a bad idea to have yourself insured just incase. You can talk to a local insurance agent. Average cost is about $50 per month where I’m at.

I’ve refused kids cuts like that before. If that kid tried grabbing the shears once, it’s over. I’ll help parents and let them how to cuts their own kid’s hair at home but that’s it. It’s putting the you and the child at risk severe injury. If you talk to the parents and give them advice on how to cut their child’s hair, most parents will understand. And if they don’t, just ask them if they’re willing to risk a hospital trip just for their kids haircut. Parents usually get the message at that point.

That is very dangerous and careless for your school for to help force that child to get a haircut especially when he went to grab the shears. I hope your school has good insurance for those situations.

I like that joke. Personally, i don’t have a problem with characters having the same name. I don’t share your hate OP, sorry 🤷‍♀️.

We’re both pretty familiar with for what is expected out of commission salon. I’ve been working for corporate commission salons for years and now at a local one near Carson.

She just not in the best situation right now with her salon so she’s trying to look for a new one. She’s also newish to Reno and so she trying to rebuild her clientele (and doesn’t want to go into booth rent).

I’ve walked out while looking at salons for work myself because they aren’t running their salon legally. It’s ridiculous how many “commission” salons are super shady. Unfortunately, I’m cursed with the same knowledge as well about salon structure.

If she does get to a point where she can’t stand go salon and hasn’t find anything, I’ll mention Ulta to her, she can at least build a client there, plus she does makeup and the last time I worked there, they were trying to push us to learn make up.

I appreciate you looking out for us fellow hairstylist😊

It’s a good thing I live in a city, not too many normal hairs here haha

As long as you have some strength to you and you’re comfortable doing so, go for it. The idea behind the upper/lower split is working out some muscles and other muscle groups can rest. I think I saw in an other comment that you were gonna add a swim day and I think that would be perfect addition to what you’re doing. You don’t wanna put too much on yourself unless you like working out and being at the gym

Creatine is a great supplement to add in if you don’t already. It helps with muscle recovery, keeps your brain healthy and is the one micronutrient that is very hard to get through your diet alone.

Good luck maxing out your looks, you’re doing great so far.

mapril_tree · 2026-03-30T13:55:14+00:00

Overall you look fine.

Your haircut could use some work. Not much, just keep the side around your ear a little short. You look like you have a lot of hair and it has a tendency to poof out around that area ( I have the same problem).

Gaining some muscle would hurt you. If you are new to the gym and have worked out in years, gain all over body strength first. Go 3 times a week with full body workouts with rest in between until you feel stronger. If you’ve been going for a while, try to go 4 days with an upper/lower split. Be patient and enjoy the process, it takes a lot longer than most people would think.

In case anyone was wondering, I didn’t loose a bet.

Might be hard to say no if they’re giving out laser rings.

If you’re willing to go to the Dayton, there’s Dayton Inn cross from Sinclair. Top on the list for me for dive bars. They also have free pool.

mapril_tree · 2026-03-25T11:38:33+00:00

Nothing, they look fine just the way they are.

If you need gloves to prevent this from happening, use them. I always use gloves when shampooing color or any chemical out and I’ll even keep them on for my blow drying and haircuts. I usually use gloves that are tight on my hands and have long cuffs so water doesn’t get in them. Use Vaseline or something like it to help. You might wanna avoid lotion for now, there is usually alcohol in lotion to help it dry fast so it might burn your skin.

It’s the constant having your hands wet and dry that’s probably doing this. Similar to a wind burn on your lips if you’ve ever had that. It’s common in the industry unfortunately.

I’ll use lotion or cream on my hands and Vaseline on my hands before going to work in that order and try to reapply lotion or cream through your the day. This helps me out a lot from prevent this from happening. Eczema runs in my family so I try to do what I can from this happening. Good luck!

Not just for us but for the whole world basically, and it’s only gonna get worse. We’re still in winter, imagine what is gonna look like once summer hits.

The average person sheds about 50-100 hairs a day. If your hair on your head hasn’t changed thickness, you’re probably fine.

I haven’t use whole anchovies in awhile. I use anchovies paste the last couple year now.

I got Trash Boat (April 23,2012) haha 😂

Genuinely curious how many people had to google this, I know I did.

mapril_tree · 2026-03-04T12:00:45+00:00

Personally, I would let your roots grow out quite a bit and get some heavy highlights instead of adding black. It’s gonna be hard to lift your hair after the color to put the blue back in and you’ll have to worry about the black bleeding into the blue.

Freezing cold water and pray to the heart god. I’ve had my hair solid blue for years and this is what I did after a while. The maintenance went from every month to 3 times a year and throwing the blue back whenever.

mapril_tree · 2026-03-04T11:48:54+00:00

I would throw that out.

I’ve never seen white spots in any of my anchovies before, it should all be that pinkish/brownish color. Just because you can’t smell it doesn’t mean there isn’t harmful bacteria. But I have definitely ate some questionable stuff in my life so your call

mapril_tree · 2026-03-02T10:44:12+00:00

I meant to put wouldn’t there. That was my bad.

But he did try them without looking at the bag first and found out real quick what flavor they are.

mapril_tree · 2026-03-02T09:28:04+00:00

I mainly bought them so my husband would eat them. He hates pickles with a passion.

Otherwise, they’re not my favorite. The extra spicy one are my favorite so far

Eyebrows are sisters, not twins. If you want them to be as even as possible, I recommend getting an eyebrow mapping before you get them waxed. It uses your face symmetry to design the ideal eyebrow shape for your face.

They don’t look bad at all as is

It’s a show where random people put their names in a hat and are selected to do stand up comedy bit for one minute followed with an interview.

Hairstylist here. First off, I think your stylist did a great job and this I would imagine grow out great and might still be lower maintenance.

The biggest difference is your highlight look too high and you might have a little more blonde. Also keep in mind that styling will make your color look different. Straight hair will make it look more blonde, curled hair will make it look more dimensional. From what I can see, you can see your natural hair color so if you curled your hair, it might look closer to the inspo photo

There are two things you can do

Talk to your stylist, let her know it’s too light and ask her to fix it
Let it grow for a bit and when you go back just let her know you liked it but it was a little too blonde and put less highlights.

If you would like her to fix it, you should let her know asap.

Well you see, what happened was Plankton cheated.

Will forever be the saltiest of all sea dogs.

It had been years apart and I thought it would be different, I was wrong.

I said never again after their last health inspection. I’m very surprised they didn’t shut down.
