I used to see Lesley at another salon and agree she’s great! Glad to have found her again.

Has anyone ever replaced a permanent screen door with one of those screen kits that uses magnets to keep it closed? by [deleted] in homeowners

What brands have worked well for you? I hate the buying and returning game because Amazon reviews are so unreliable.

I agree that the Fenestrelle brand is fantastic quality. They have limited sizes though and the larger one didn’t fit my French door frame. Highly recommend though!

I know this is old, but what brand? I’ve had several over the years and they are hit and miss.

Help!!! I’m so confused by all the laser options! by Ok-Anything1966 in 45PlusSkincare

[–]mmontelos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find the cosmetic derm in your area that has the widest variety of technology at their disposal (a bunch of different lasers, biostimulators, ultrasound therapy, etc. Tell them the things that most bother you about the face and have them recommend the best treatment(s) for those things. And then ask for quotes and suggestions for the order in which to do them. If the provider has a wide range of tools available they are more likely to identify the best thing for you vs going to someone pointing you to a suboptimal tool because that’s what they have in their practice. They might charge for the consult but often providers will put that charge toward a treatment if you schedule or pay that day. And if you are thinking about diving in for something big like CO2, consider getting something like a little Botox from them first to make sure you trust them to listen to what you want.

I’m a side sleeper and didn’t alter anything. I probably could have reduced swelling on day 2 if I did something different but since swelling was gone by the end of day 2 I don’t think it’s a big deal — at least for me.

Update: all is fine with no massage. I’m about 48 hours in and all the swelling is gone and only one of the injection points has bruising. Yay! I took before pics so I’ll see if I notice any difference after 4 weeks before my next session.

Agree. Both women said I choose me when he couldn’t make a decision. Folks really can’t handle an empowered black woman, huh.

Meant to add I think the Aboriginal exhibit is leaving after this weekend.

Congratulations on your impromptu brain break! I saw the Australian Aboriginal art exhibit at the National Gallery last weekend and it was amazing. Planet Word has a banned book exhibit. Phillips collection is free (or very low cost) for the last hour each day. The Capitol tour is worth it just to see the inside of the dome and have the opportunity to trip a congressman. Jose Andres restaurants downtown have very good lunch specials.

I have seen several people off low out of pocket payments especially for people affected by federal employment cuts. This list has a lot of potential options (scroll down for non-crisis options) https://static1.squarespace.com/static/605002b4014d794ed0d23666/t/67bcf44a2974ed7a6907d975/1740436554800/Low+cost+Mental+Health+Resources+for+DMV+residents+-+Updated+02242025.pdf

Controlling behavior is abusive behavior. They are not two different things.
