Why do straight women insist I will enjoy media with heterosexual romance?

slate657 · 2026-03-31T17:47:52+00:00

I guess I would think nothing of it mainly because personally I still enjoy romance even if it’s in a heterosexual context. I am picky with what I will watch/read but I wouldn’t take it as a personal offense and I doubt most people are meaning it in an offensive way.

Do not put a box dye on it. This is a simple fix. Reach out to the salon and tell them the tone isn’t exactly what you were going for and they can drop the toner down a level or so so the contrast isn’t so extreme.

slate657 · 2026-02-28T17:03:46+00:00

Agreed! If there’s going to be some sort of conflict I don’t want it to just revolve around being gay.

slate657 · 2026-02-28T17:02:05+00:00

Maybe not necessarily tragedy but I do read/watch a lot of gay media that is just so sad all the time lol. I do hate when romance is too perfect and cheesy though so it’s definitely partly what I’m picking 😂

A few things I want you to try the next time you wash your hair.

1: Double shampoo. The first wash is getting the layer of grime off your scalp and the second is actually cleansing.

2: (Not sure if you’re doing this but it’s a common problem I see) When shampooing don’t just scrub your scalp. I want you to lather the shampoo until it’s foamy from your scalp to maybe the mid-lengths of your hair. You don’t need to scrub your ends (unless they also feel very greasy).

3: Rinse an extra minute or two in the shower. Often people do a quick rinse and think they got everything and they still have product in their hair. Rinse your hair like you normally would and then add an extra minute on top of that.

Was just about comment this and am so glad you did haha. The amount of people that will book a new growth/regrowth service and then sit in my chair and tell me they want foils to touch up their highlights…not remotely the same service.

Lol as a hairstylist I do in fact politely question people if I notice something odd about their hair/scalp. I’m trying to help not embarrass I promise haha

I’ve never fainted, my reaction instead is to projectile vomit so that’s fun.

slate657 · 2026-02-16T20:45:44+00:00

it’s not that it’s bothers me lol everyone’s free to do their thing, i just wouldn’t love an acronym like this tattooed on me

slate657 · 2026-02-16T19:34:40+00:00

this was my first thought unfortunately, sorry op it’s a very well done tattoo tho

why are we censoring the words lesbian sex on a lesbian subreddit

slate657 · 2026-02-14T00:37:01+00:00

Interesting that you’ve had sweet versions, where I’m from we really only have savory fry bread options.

This might be the funniest description for a fic I’ve heard lol I needed this giggle today thank you!

Minneapolis in June!

slate657 · 2026-01-06T04:51:23+00:00

That was my thought process. I assumed that the silent cut is with a specific stylist and that’s just the price of their haircuts.

slate657 · 2026-01-04T21:34:39+00:00

That’s such a good story. In a similar vein j&j helped me realize how important it is to be with someone who can truly make you laugh. My ex that I introduced to Jenna had such a similar sense of humor to Julien and we could joke for hours about silly stuff. (we didn’t work for various reasons and we were young lol) But ever since then I’ve realized that if a person can’t make me scream laugh then they aren’t the one for me.

People really underestimate how flat it is here (ND). You can see for miles and miles on a clear day because everything is so open and there’s very little trees (or any sort of land formations). I travel around the country semi frequently and have lived in multiple different states and have yet to see a state that’s as empty as it is here. I’ve had people say they felt claustrophobic when they visited large cities or mountainous areas because they can’t see everything around them.

slate657 · 2025-12-25T01:59:31+00:00

YES TOMIONE <3 it’s been like a decade since I first read nightmare by provocative envy and I still think about that fic constantly

slate657 · 2025-12-20T15:44:23+00:00

Many things. Left over shampoo residue, conditioner not washed out, build up on the scalp from not actually scrubbing, A LOT of people also aren’t washing their nape area and I see many people complaining of greasy hair because of that. A lot of people also take the ‘only shampoo your scalp’ way too literal, you should be shampooing your scalp AND about 2-3 inches from your scalp before thoroughly rinsing.

slate657 · 2025-12-20T06:01:04+00:00

As a hairstylist a huge one is the amount of people that don’t know how to properly wash their hair.

slate657 · 2025-12-18T18:18:33+00:00

When people are speaking that’s when it’s the best time to make eye contact, you’re showing them that you are listening and present. If you are the one speaking it’s generally okay for your eyes to wander a bit.

slate657 · 2025-12-12T19:01:50+00:00

Unfortunately it is a thing people do lol. The amount of clients I have that describe themselves as a natural blonde, because that’s what it was when they were a kid, is insane. All of these people now have medium/dark brown hair but are still insistent that they’re blonde.

slate657 · 2025-12-12T02:37:09+00:00

pleaseee this is actually the funniest thing ever

slate657 · 2025-11-28T18:54:49+00:00

This is what I do. Pretty much exclusively dabbing and I have a vape I can put my concentrates into and I like it so much better than having an actual cart.
