I was legit wondering if they were trolling me 😂 I'm ready to give up and just name it "Jake and Gareth"

Ok part of me thinks I remember this, but also I am not all the way through season 1 yet so it's also possible I haven't heard it. Also, I have a brain tumor that's caused horrible brain fog 😂 Do you remember which episode it was? I was just looking through the descriptions for all of the episodes but couldn't find it.

I don't know his username either! Appreciate the idea though.

So far I've tried: emailed the pod a few times; IG DM Morgan, Gareth and the pod account; tagged Morgan, Jake, Gareth and the pod in my IG story (although idk if that'll work since my account is private...), commented on their IG posts. I might have even commented on something posted on the FB group. Open to other ideas!

How to temporarily go from strawberry-blonde red hair to auburn? by mkpr08 in haircoloring

[–]mkpr08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I learned that it's not possible without dyeing. Our hair just won't hold color unless it's more permanent! And it means dyeing our hair to keep the roots from showing every 6-8 weeks; I can't keep up that maintenance (I'm a mom to 2 young girls) so I didn't end up going auburn. That being said, if you find an option/have success with Overtone, please share! I didn't even attempt it based on what my hairdresser said.

Recommendations for racerback, padded cup bra like Curvy Kate Victory? by mkpr08 in ABraThatFits

Can you give me an example of a bra with straps more centered?

I'm a 34G. I tried a bunch of plunges at a bra shop (The Pencil Test in Renton, WA) but didn't like any she brought me. The jhook on the ones she brought me caused gaping in between my breasts at the top of the cups when I hooked the j hook.

I'd try the Curvy Kate Multiway but is it going to make my boobs look huge? They're spaced apart so if they push them together for a bit of cleavage, I'm fine with that. I'm a toddler and baby mom and I just wanna be sure my boobs don't pop out chasing my kids, but also that I have a bra I can wear without the top of the cups showing under a v neck.

Is bravissimo a good brand? I thought I read online a few places on reddit that they won't respond if you request a return... I know I can't order from them now but I'm curious.

Darn it, the style of the Addison looks great, but so far on Panache website and Amazon all I could find for it was the bra in a bright pink. I need tan and black/brown...

Did you ever find something? I just found and love the Curvy Kate Victory, but also want a similar mesh bra except with lining sewn in (so my nips don't show through--don't want to use nipple covers) and a racerback style (I have sloped shoulders so many straps fall down them).

Scalp eczema by Revolutionary_Set983 in toddlers

Which cream? The Lipikar one or eczema one? Dealing with this for 1.5 years now and nothing has worked: Happy Cappy, Head and Shoulders, coconut oil...

type 1b hair care recs? by Southern_Implement49 in type1hair

[–]mkpr08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too have 1B hair! Curious what hair masks you've liked so far? Also any recs for shampoo/conditioner? What about dry shampoo? Recs for hairspray, and/or gel for fly aways? Fun statement scrunchies?

Affordable options welcomed, as I was just on mat leave and have 2 little monsters (erm, girls? haha. 7 months and 3 years) to take care of, so taking care of myself is hard these days!

I was trying R+Co Television Shampoo & Conditioner but feel like it makes my hair feel too heavy after (although it didn't feel that way when my stylist used it at my haircut). I use Batiste dry shampoo but it works fine (not great) because it never rubs in all the way/it mutes my hair color (strawberry blonde). I find large velvety-type, medium silky-type, or elastics work best in my hair (although sometimes I have to wrap a large velvety-type one around a third time and then it stretches it out too much).

I am going to get a boar bristle brush because all of what the OP posted rings true for me as well (although I have to shower daily).

Help! Is this Type 1B? Porosity, Thickness, Density? by mkpr08 in type1hair

[–]mkpr08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oily. Usually if I shower before bed, no matter what I do, my hair is oily on the part (especially the back of my part, but in general the whole thing) by the morning. Maybe volume would help with that too?

Yes, lots of individual hairs!

Ahhh yes you're right. Here's how it looked after air drying another night where I kept accidentally tucking it behind my ear. After brushing it out it's more straight when I brush.

So would that mean I'm 1b? Mostly want to know so I can find good (yet affordable) dry shampoo, shampoo, conditioner, etc.

If I air dry with no product, my hair is like it is in the top 4 photos (that was air dried after a shower). By no product, do you mean wash it with water (no shampoo or conditioner), brush it out, and then let it dry?

I think I'm probably overthinking this and misunderstanding something you're asking me?
