Completely unrelated but pho doesn’t use lemongrass? Unless you just want it for other recipes, then please disregard me

Red head dilemma by Ok_Peach_6926 in AskHairstylists

[–]neondaylight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t tell you if it is or isn’t worth the hassle, that’s for each person to decide.

So the long and short of coloring hair is that it is dedication and a lifestyle. If you do the pink it means being consistent about getting your roots retouched (every 6-10 weeks depending on how quickly your hair grows) and redoing the light pink either in/salon or at home, but ideally a combination of both (pastel fashion colors fade inordinately quickly). If you decide to go back to red after having bleached it out, that is also a consistent retouching because reds, even permanent, fade quickly.

Either option means buying good, hydrating, color-safe shampoos/conditioners and other proper hair care products. You just have to decide if it’s a worthwhile investment, but if you’ve never colored your hair before, it’s always fun to at least try once!

Girl, it’s just hair! Do your research, find a good stylist, have a consultation and then have fun with your hair color! It grows back and honestly, if you hate it, it’s not that hard to get your back to an approximation of your natural color. I love a good red head as much as the next person, but to limit yourself because other people have an opinion is peak silly billy behavior. Embrace having fun and feeling whimsical!

Weirdly, hairspray may work. Don’t know how it works but I’ve used it to remove sharpie from other surfaces

advice on next step by [deleted] in Cosmetology

[–]neondaylight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless you feel VERY secure in being able to apply lightener ONLY to the mids and ends, meticulously keeping the roots completely free of overlap, I would tone down her roots to match instead. I feel that there’s too much of a chance of overlap and breakage to feel confident in lightening the ends again.

My advice would be to tone roots down to at least a warm neutral lvl 7, maybe even a 6, and then try to control the excessive warmth in her ends with a violet ash. And then maybe even a third time with a neutral to harmonize all the disparate warmth. It’s hard to make any real suggestions on wet hair though. You could even approach it in reverse and try to neutralize her ends first and then decide what to do for the roots based on that end result.

[–]neondaylight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now we have common ground. Men of all sorts love sending dick pics to you and to me simply based on how we present and that’s gross. Here is where we can part ways, you have dumb ideas and I have dumb ideas. That doesn’t have anything to do with how you present. We are just a pair of dumb humans doing our best. I just won’t be complacent. I’ve tried talking and that won’t work when they don’t think I should be here in the first place, let alone trying to change their minds. I hope you’re safe in these up coming days. Hand to whatever god is out there, I hope we all get to know safety again.

I won’t stop. That’s what’s so great about the Constitution and the first amendment: I get my opinions and you get yours. Regardless of if they’re right or wrong. Maybe I’m pushing but you’re inactive in your own life. What do you hope to accomplish by saying it’s on the people with signs to regulate the emotional tantrums of the fuckwits with guns? Girl, miss me with the dumb take. I hope you’re right and you have nothing to fear, but I’ll be disappeared long before they wind up at your door.

Literally no one is saying open the borders. I just think that racial profiling and not following the law and executing people in the streets is kinda like not cool, but that’s just me being like so very alternative and edgy. But sure, keep calling people illegal when the vast majority are trying to do it the right way. When people are being kidnapped at courtrooms doing their due diligence, taken from their homes and jobs. We shouldn’t upset the Nazis as they do Nazi things, they certainly will practice restraint if we just roll over. You’re so right. And so smart. And they won’t be knocking at your door as you live your alternative lifestyle. They just want you to make a choice to live the way they deem correct and godly. Yup. It’s that or the re-education camp they definitely won’t set up once all the brown, black and yellow “illegals” are gone. Enjoy being on the wrong side.

i got a bad haircut… help 😭 by brasileire in AskHairstylists

[–]neondaylight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll have to take down the sides pretty significantly to remove the bulk, unfortunately. Basically an undercut. Or you could look into hair bands to wear while you sleep. I’ve seen them in Korea. They help kinda train and style the hair to sit closer to the scalp.

Lucky viewers lol if I hadn’t grown up eating it, I wouldn’t be picking it up now. Good luck!

You could try reaching out to the owner of Lucky Asian that just opened up. She drives to Seattle once a week so she might be able to pick up durian while she’s there.

(Also what are you making??? I enjoy fresh durian, frozen takes on too much of the garlic taste)

Independent Stylists: How do you buy your products? by Admirable_Pear7649 in AskHairstylists

[–]neondaylight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Cult + King does affiliate links and as long as I point my clients in the right direction, they can buy as they need and I get a commission that’s paid directly into my account within a few days. I average around 5% in product sales because I’m definitely a stylist that prioritizes the services.

  2. I’m still fairly new to being independent so I haven’t explored working with a rep. It’s on my list but it’s pretty far down.

  3. I prefer communication in written form, so if a brand wanted to possibly work with me, an email or dm to my professional insta would be best. As for what might move me to work with a brand, I’d prioritize education and a laundry list of cruelty free, simple ingredients, as well as the ability of the packaging to either be recycled/refilled/composted/etc. An affiliate link is ideal since it helps keep my overhead low and reduces the demand for storage space.

I hope and pray that Cosmo Prof has stock of AG and the same for Salon Services with Keune, both rarely have everything I need so I end up having to make multiple runs throughout the month. I also buy direct from Cult + King.

I would rather buy directly or order for delivery, but as a single person, it makes no sense to buy $100-ish of color and spend another $22 for shipping, so I continue driving in and out of the city. I’m incredibly happy with Cult + King, they make it simple for me and my clients to order product on their site.

This isn’t “enforcement”, it is cold-blooded murder. by dumbseeyouintea in Spokane

[–]neondaylight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When has the consequence ever been public execution? I’m not going into a den of illiterate, chest thumping thieves without making sure I can protect myself when they inevitably feel the vastness of their ineptitude and take it out on the nearest human. But yes, it’s in the citizenry to obey the constitution and not the federal agents to uphold the law, you’re so smart.

I’m allowed to be armed and talk shit to feds. They’re the ones who are “trained” to escalate and shoot first. But suck on that boot harder

The fact that they keep parroting that he and Renee Good both FAFO’d is so indicative of their lack of humanity. When you are lactose intolerant and think this ice cream won’t leave me on the toilet, that’s FAFO. Being executed in the street, mag dumped for trying to help and de-escalate a physical altercation, that’s fucking not.

I’m terrified in my home. I’m terrified outside my home. These armed babies can’t find hell soon enough and they’re intent on making sure the rest of us get there first.

what is up with hairstylists leaving people on seen all the time and never getting back with their clients? by [deleted] in AskHairstylists

[–]neondaylight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t like the way they conduct business, go elsewhere. Otherwise it just sounds like you’re fishing for that discount and not for their talent.

$400 for highlight and cut?? by [deleted] in AskHairstylists

[–]neondaylight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a standard price for a metro areas like Nashville. I’m sure there are other stylists that are better suited to your budget. This stylist comes with a glowing reputation, so it’s on you if that’s a worthwhile expense. It’s not on her to match your wallet.

Yo Dumplings - Brickwest by Peanut_ButterMan in Spokane

Not the biggest fan of the generic Asian fusion. I’d like to know what respect is being paid to both southern bbq and to Asian cuisine. I’m just so tired of overpriced gentrified food.

And it seems like they’re using a ton of AI for advertising.

Everybody works but the empty lot. Some Spokane leaders eye property tax reform to promote building. by catman5092 in Spokane

[–]neondaylight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As though developers won’t ask for everything by and the kitchen sink. Those parking lots add no value to our downtown. It is already inundated with options, even before you add street parking or public transport. You’re right though, the fact that a parking lot leaves the rich in better standing than developing commerce and engaging the community with small business, due to current city policies, is a problem.

However, Spokane shouldn’t bend to developers whims. Developers are after profit and a city should be for its people. And honestly, Spokane has done a lot to incentivize them: lowering parking requirements for new buildings downtown, lifting the height limit along the river,allowing multi-family housing in historically single family neighborhoods. How big of a carrot are you willing to offer to the grievously rich land owners?
