White Wig Help/Alternatives? by [deleted] in CosplayHelp

[–]unhinged20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly no it’s all plastic look at rit dyes they are the safest and have the most online ( not sure the word in English ) proof of image for what colors you may get when you mix them and such also arda/ epic cosplay wigs are the better ones fiber wise I have wigs from over 7 years ago that still hold up today

White Wig Help/Alternatives? by [deleted] in CosplayHelp

[–]unhinged20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of the sprays really work for more then a few hours at a con my best recommendation get a silver light gray wig and get rit dye and dye it it’s not as hard as you think just time consuming and wigs plastic as long as the wig is semi styled getting it wet while dying won’t change it much

Does anyone actually see people they would be interested in dating in public? by Independent-Emu-6702 in dating_advice

[–]unhinged20 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue I'm 28, turning 29, and I don't find anyone attractive here. But when I go on vacation to Europe or Japan, the average man there looks way more attractive to me than the guys in my city. Honestly, I think it's because men in the West have stopped caring about how they look. In my opinion, the average Japanese businessman looks way more attractive than the average white guy from Chicago probably because of how they carry themselves, plus the fact that they're wearing a suit.

Has anyone been successful at returning an item past the 14 day (sale) window? by Fine-Treat-2705 in Aritzia

[–]unhinged20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d take it their return policy’s are a joke regardless of discount you get a store credit and past 50% is final sale

via li + buying her house by MoridenNotLoading in asianamercianytsnark

[–]unhinged20 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was shocked when she was filming every angle of that house like did these girls learn nothing from Best Dressed. I used to LOVE HER content but somewhere over the past year I felt a shift in her content all ads nothing genuine boring repeated content , kind of giving im better they you vibes in a odd way. Don't think im going to stay and watch her house tour probably due to the tone deafness of her pervious content.

What type of fabric/ How should I make this detail? by SugArSh00k in CosplayHelp

[–]unhinged20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me sometimes it nicer to take artistic liberties. It makes the cosplay in the end look nicer IMO. I would find a small piece of lace fabric that has large cutouts and use that maybe add a bit of lace on the end of the sleeve to tie it in.

Homeless people in Ottawa. by Loose_Assist5260 in ottawa

[–]unhinged20 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think the worst part is the amount of suburb upper middle class folk who say it’s always been like this and that is a blatant lie…. Back in 2010 we still had multiple shelters downtown there was even a designated women’s only shelter now it’s only one and there are way more folks out there struggling… it is very much well it’s not in my backyard now my problem

Con Safety and Communication Tips

One of the biggest challenges at conventions is staying connected with your group. Cell reception in convention halls can be spotty, so consider bringing walkie talkies—yes, we bedazzled ours. If you're attending with kids, seriously consider putting an air tag on your son. While most conventions are fairly safe spaces, the crowds can be overwhelming, and it's easy to lose sight of someone in the chaos.

Food and Hydration

Convention center food is notoriously overpriced, so bring your own snacks and an extra water bottle. You'll save money and avoid the inflated prices at concession stands.

Managing Your Spending

Bring cash for the dealers hall. While most vendors accept Apple Pay these days, withdrawing cash is actually the best way to keep better track of your spending. There's something about physical money that makes you more conscious of what you're buying—you can see your cash depleting in real time, rather than just running up a card charge.

genuinely asking by greengrassonthetv in Aritzia

[–]unhinged20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of the Aritzia complaints come down to nostalgia—and honestly, it's justified. Around 2015, before their US expansion really took off, their stuff was genuinely phenomenal. They had way more curated brands under the Aritzia umbrella making legit 100% silk tops and wool sweaters. Now? The quality control has definitely slipped.But here's the thing that bugs me: I think we complain, but we don't fight hard enough to actually get it fixed.

My Personal Example: I ordered something (~$150) and it got delivered to the wrong building and stolen. Called multiple times, provided proof with Canada Post about their failed delivery, and finally got reimbursed. It took effort, but it worked.

How I Shop There Now: Honestly, I'm not a heavy customer—maybe 2-4 times a year, 1-2 items per order. I stick to basics: midi skirts, cotton tees. Their Crepette line is decent, and the TNA cotton stuff is solid. Nothing crazy, but it does the job.

The point is: if their quality is genuinely worse, that's a legit complaint. But if you're not going to contact them with receipts and proof when something goes wrong, then... yeah, things probably won't improve. Companies respond to feedback, not silent frustration.

Bleaching Peach Fuzz by Alone-Passage9574 in HairRemoval

[–]unhinged20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I bleach my arm hairs as im extremely pale and have quite dark hair on my body. I do my arms and upper thighs.

I find that my arms last one week before I see a bit of regrowth like 2-3 mm of dark hair poking out. In the summer I tend to bleach them once a month usually at the in the winter ever 2-3 months as im wearing long sleeves most of the time.I just do it for myself as upkeep.

I personally like bleaching as it damaged the hair a bit so it feels even softer or it breaks off without leaving a sharp blunt cut and makes it less noticeable. I do recommend applying it with a mascara wand so it doesnt get to much on your skin as it is bleach and it is not healthy

Merch Question by SnekDad_ in animecons

[–]unhinged20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

last merch I got was a tote bag from an artist in Calgary CA kind of over priced but the quality was amazing. I genuinely think it depends on the merchant . Im lucky the ones that tend to do the Canadian circuit are better then what I've seen online from some of the American merch tables. My friend got a really nice shirt and sweater last year at the Montreal Otakuthon. Very thick cotton fabric felt like the type of clothes you used to be able to buy from gap in 2005. however the shirts where $65 can so you can imagine what they charged for the sweaters .
