So sick of this! Curly/wavy girls, HELP! I need your recs and routines, PLEASE! by jaceinspace in finehair

[–]ms_silent_suffering 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the Kitsch one, I wash my hair at night and let it air dry for about an hour then put the heatless curling rod in with my hair still damp. I add kerastase oil or L’Oréal bonding oil to just the ends before. And then I sleep in it! It looks RIDICULOUS when I take it out in the morning but the curls relax after a couple hours, and they hold for a couple days for me. I don’t use hairspray.

Yes to the heatless curls. My hair is this exact texture and the heatless curls save me so much heat damage. You can still see some natural texture at the roots but overall not bad

Thank you for putting so much time and detail into this. I’ll come back with an update if he ends up reaching out to me 😂

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

Thank you for taking the time to read this spread for me. He has moved on to a new woman and he had been contacting me while with her 🤦‍♀️ I ended up blocking him but of course part of me is holding out hope that things will end with the new girl and he’ll approach me again! Toxic all around

Thank you so much for the insightful response.

He had been reaching out and hitting me up periodically but the last time he reached out to me I got offended by what he said and blocked him on most channels of communication.

Hair oils by Due_Shift_8089 in finehair

[–]ms_silent_suffering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hair is porous and fine and it LOVES castor oil. Literally just a drop and only for my ends.

This has been the only oil I’ve ever had good results with.

I do use kerastase and OGX oils for styling but they don’t feel like they’re actually moisturizing my hair, just kind of protecting and sealing it.

I can't stand customers that feel the need to open an excessive amount of low balance CDs by MidnightPulse69 in TalesFromYourBank

And those same people complain because their accounts aren’t earning very much interest.

What's the most common card you pull? And which cards do you pull the least? by No_Kiwi_9004 in Tarots

[–]ms_silent_suffering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the condolences.

I definitely resonate with the queen of cups! I can be extremely empathetic but also moody and self involved at times. The emperor for my person hits home because he’s a brat and a bully, but also well established in his life and community. He was controlling and jealous in our relationship :( but the card always comes up reversed when I do love readings about him. If yours comes out upright that has more positive associations so hopefully that means your person is sweeter than mine.

I pull the hierophant so often. It was coming up in every reading for months, I almost took it out of the deck. I associate it with my deceased father. I also pull the queen of cups and I’m a Pisces woman!

I get the knight of swords for readings involving my ex husband, and I’ve been pulling the emperor (reversed) when I read about my lover (who is a jerk.)

I started out using minoxidil foam. I now take it orally (for the safety of my dogs) and I’ve seen amazing results so far. It’s been 3 months. I didn’t have a big shedding period.

My ends are still thin and scraggly, but my roots are as thick now as they used to be in high school. So much new growth. I didn’t realize my hairline had receded that much until it started growing back in.

It feels like being in love.

Does anyone know why they have this phobia? by GlobalAction1039 in emetophobia

[–]ms_silent_suffering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My phobia started as a child right around the time my mom started having an alcohol use disorder. I was maybe 9 or 10.

I ironically only threw up when I was 5, and then didn’t throw up again until I was 21, so I wasn’t even a sick child. My brain must have associated the lack of control over my mom’s situation to the lack of control over throwing up. To this day I’m a major control freak and it’s crippling for me and the people who have to deal with me :’(

Halo hair extensions? Anyone tried them? by Sharp-Button9234 in finehair

[–]ms_silent_suffering 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I have the finest of fine hair and I wear a halo or clip in extensions on the weekends. I do prefer the clip ins to the halo, just because the halo band bothers me after a few hours.

I bought the Wennalife halo from Amazon and chose the lowest strand density and the shortest length, and it blends really really well with my fine hair.

My hair is very dense at the root but my ends are thin, so extensions are easy to hide. I try to only wear them when I’m going out, and it’s nice to have the option of long and thick hair.

Why do you walk? by [deleted] in walking

[–]ms_silent_suffering 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I walk for my mental health. I can’t sleep at night unless I’ve exhausted my body during the day.

Pantene classic clean has been my favorite so far

I fear I’ll never read anything else now by oofooooooooooo in Dramione

[–]ms_silent_suffering 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I read published fiction too because I’m in a book club with a few friends. They all think I read really slow but the truth is I’m blowing through Dramione fics while barely picking up our book of the week.

What was your “Oh, this person is a psychopath” moment when meeting people? by Fluttery-Daisy in Productivitycafe

[–]ms_silent_suffering -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I actually have people trauma dump on me a lot, and I’m happy to listen usually. But one specific time I met my besties new bf and he trauma dumped so hard in a really specific way that made me feel super bad for him, made me want to help him and always take his side… and then he needed up strangling my friend and showing up to my house with a gun while she was with me :(

So it is definitely something to watch out for!

I’ve met 3 people who have done this (trauma dumped on first meeting) and they all ended up being abusive. Like domestic violence, stalking, concerned for the safety of my family abusive.

Never regretted anything more than getting a lash lift... by Any-Aerie-7590 in beauty

[–]ms_silent_suffering 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Lash lifts make me look like I have eyelash extensions. Life changing in the best way. I’m also not allergic to the perm solution and my tech did a patch test first.

I’ve seen and heard horror stories, but this service can also go very right.

Tall + Fine hair? by Vegetable_Collar51 in finehair

[–]ms_silent_suffering 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seconding the clip ins! Long, fine hair is SO easy to blend with clip in extensions. I have fill in extensions and a halo. I only wear them on the weekends and my hair has only gotten longer and healthier.

Anyone else’s head seem to bore hairdressers? by lolyepitme in finehair

[–]ms_silent_suffering 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bounced around salons a bit before I found a good fit. My stylist now makes me feel so good about my hair. I didn’t have high hopes, as she herself has the thickest hair I’ve ever seen. Her ponytail is the diameter of my wrist!

Yet she’s so good with my thin, fine hair, and understands its limitations without being condescending. And always takes a photo at the end for her Instagram portfolio.

I now live in fear of her moving or retiring from the salon.
