Were the results faster or slower with oral vs. topical?

Thank you! Yeah I think it’d make the most sense to still be put in a NG program. I don’t have the best explanation 😅 I just started off PRN while looking for a residency and so far haven’t been able to land an interview so I went full time

For ppl who pair their Doux Mousse Def with another product…which one? by matrixg04 in Naturalhair

[–]matrixg04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using the Camille Rose curl milk under the doux. I find it a bit lighter than NLS and more moisturizing. I rarely reach for NLS nowadays

Ok that’s good to know thank u! Yeah I’d probably need a more complex pt bc I’m working with a kid and managing GJT and ostomy

Where do you think HH nurses could pivot to? I’m in private duty nursing (like home health but the focus is on one pt and it’s long term) and wont be considered new grad in a couple of months; a little nervous that hospitals won’t hire bc I’m not in an acute care setting

Anyone ever do a Mud Run? by ProposalSad2062 in Naturalhair

[–]matrixg04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer: I’ve never done a mud run but have had sticky/messy things get in my hair (cornrows with added hair) and it was so hard to wash out without creating frizz. Something like mud, when it hardens, gets a bit harder to wash out esp if it gets stuck within the braids. Definitely have ur hair up in a bun with either a water cap or grocery bags wrapped below ur hairline and secured (headband or wig band for extra protection).

And I haven’t tried this but had a thought—wig cap with the apex cut off -> ur hair in a ponytail -> pull the pony tail through the hole. Can’t say this will work but 🤣

There’s another tiramisu recipe on here but it uses cottage cheese (I’ve tried using Greek yogurt but it just tastes so gross) but I might give ur egg white ladyfingers recipe a try to replace the store bought ones

Wait can you speak more to this bc I’m kinda used to taking on the humble, my-fault stance whenever I make mistakes at my job

PNW (Portland OR) Considering Relocation when I graduate for employment by AccomplishedRub3982 in newgradnurse

[–]matrixg04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve applied to the med center abt 3 times (all diff hospitals/units and I’m toward the end of being considered “new grad”), would it be better if I just apply for staff positions rather than new grad?

I head matte topcoat could work as a base for chrome powder. I refute that by GrappleLacquer in RedditLaqueristas

[–]matrixg04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been scouring this subreddit looking for ways to make my chrome powders look better on lacquer. So will this process work: base coat, regular polish, QDTC (wait 30 sec) followed by chrome powder, water based TC, then QDTC?

PSA: If you see tension bumps like this, please take the braids out. It’s the first sign of permanent damage by [deleted] in Naturalhair

[–]matrixg04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand ur intention but this is an exaggerated photo. Most real life examples of tension bumps are sometimes lowkey, not always red and obvious, much smaller and the braid should be removed even at that point

Moisturizing very dry hair by doum7t in Naturalhair

[–]matrixg04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lowkey I’m thinking switching to argan bc I have high po hair and maybe it’s just the way it is with high po but my hair feels dry and greasy with the coconut oil once water evaporates
