@dirtanddiamonds just be careful with the pale/light colors because they are SUPER high maintenance. Last spring I did a unicorn hair thing with highlights of pastel purple, pink, blue and mint green and it faded SO fast. I do love the grey trend a lot too.
@msmonalisavito I often ask my mom friends if it's unethical to list my kids on Etsy. I mean, I made them.
I’m loving seeing everyone’s pics! @livinthesunnylife love that idea. I’ve had some ugh stuff going on lately that I don’t want to talk about here because our neighborhood troll keeps popping out from under her bridge @msmonalisavito thinking of you!

I’m so boring when it comes to my hair. I’m a brunette and I rarely get it colored. The few times I have it’s always such an (expensive) pain to keep up with!
also, made it to Cali!! The sun has never felt so good! Feels so great to be with my 5 besties. We have mani/pedi appointment in a half hour, then going out for sushi. What are some good rolls I can have while pregnant?! I just avoided it last time, but all the others are craving it, so I’m just going with it!
@lolog531 so jealous and happy you made it safely! Ask for a recommendation for what cooked rolls they have. No point in saying get a California roll or something if they have an amazing roll with cooked shrimp or something
@calimom2524@neeraja_k I get chin hairs all the time. I get them threaded - SOOO much better than waxing. Less painful, less expensive, and it looks nice...
@princesslockness Thanks for checking on me! Everything went well. Procedure was at noon and I was home by 3:30. Had some yucky cramps - like moderate-heavy period cramps, so I took some extra strength tylenol. They seem to be feeling better already. Just been laying low. Very little spotting - thank god. I think that was the part I was the most scared of.
@hezzer78 Glad to hear everything went well. They let me put on a heated rice sock thingy to help combat the cramps. Hopefully that spotting stops quickly.

@hezzer78 healing vibes!! Hope you’re feeling well soon!
@calimom2524 yes I get those hairs they drive me crazy. It’s part and parcel of the PCOS though! Last pregnancy I felt like it improved a lot though!
Went to Olive Garden tonight. Something about pregnancy and Olive Garden..they just go so well together!!
I think it’s pregnancy and food that just go so well together. All. The. Food.
My 4y/o has been home sick since Monday and I can’t take it anymore. I’m terrifed of what summer break is going to look like. This Monday when she goes back and it’s just me and DS home is going to be like a vacation. I don’t know if there is something about 4 that comes with all the sass and testing boundaries or if I’ve failed as a parent.
I have a chin hair that I swear grows 1/4 inch overnight. Like, one day nothing and the next day BAM! I also have hairs that come out of a mole on my lower cheek and I have to wax my upper lip. That’s because some assholes made fun of my “mustache” when I was a HS freshman and I went home that night mortified and shaved it. So it grew back black instead of blonde like the rest of my facial fuzz. Ugh.

Have you ever tried threading? That’s what I do for my upper lip. Someone once told me that whatever about waxing other body parts, you should always thread your lip. Something about years and years of pulling the skin when waxing making your skin stretch. Idk how much I believe that but my skin is quite sensitive so the threading actually irritates less than the wax!
All this hair talk makes me miss my blue hair. I dyed it blue over the summer but forgot my license renewal was in December so dyed it a dark brown to cover it up. I really miss the blue though it was so much fun =\
I also get one black chin hair, and one just to the right of my left nipple. I never notice them until they are at least a cm long, and I can never pluck them on the first 1000 tries.

I went from that pink purple ombré I posted earlier to blue and I wasn’t thrilled about it. It was supposed to be a blueish purple and she put way too much blue. It grew on me and I ended up liking it but I’m back to purple now and much happier haha
It’s like 10 degrees. And I grilled steaks tonight out on the front porch. At 8 at night. Damn they were good. Like totally patting myself on the back. God bless the second tri. lol.
@calimom2524 I originally wanted a not too bright blue but it ended up being pretty damn bright lol. I loved it! I think I liked it better than when I’ve done pink or purple
@calimom2524 I have this one neck hair that’s been with me since high school. It’s super annoying because it’s out of view so i forget about it and then one day remember and it’s like an inch long, wtf!
I just recent chopped my hair to at my chin. I was tired of it. I never take the time to do my hair so this was an easy way to do it. I want to get it died but the cost and upkeep is just too much. Plus every time I get my hair done it takes 4 hours because my hair takes forever to processs and I have a billion thin strands that use more product than the hair dresser makes. Plus I need a new hair dresser. That process sucks. I wish bleaching your hair was easier to do at home.
Sorry for the giant selfie and the Snapchat filter but it’s the only one I can find that’s blue haha. Y’all can come steal my skin now that you’ve seen my face. But @cthulu there’s the blue in all it’s glory haha
On the hair color, my sister got me hooked on Viral shampoo which has color in it so it stays for awhile and then will wash out. It works best if you have highlighted hair—I use pastel pink occasionally and it lasts a couple days, but it gets more intense the more frequently you use it.
She uses a hot pink and purple and hers lasts awhile and looks so good! I’m just not that brave.
But it’s an option to look in to without going to the salon!
I actually caught up! Ahh these threads always grow and then it’s so daunting.
Soeaking of hair i went in last week and for the first time since I chopped my hair (see avatar - it’s been short likkkke 4 years) I really am not happy with it. She cut the bang waaay to short so it isn’t working and didn’t go blonde enough. She said something like ‘oh weird has your hair been light enough bc I’m surprised at the honey in the mix’ and I was like yes it’s been good. Well something was off bc it’s way too... honey. So between the frumpy belly stage and a crappy hair cut yuck.
My hair takes 2+ hours btw. A full highlight, takes a long time to apply, then process time and the wash cut style, then scheduling and paying and driving and yeah it’s like 3hrs. I go every 10 weeks.
Im fair so I don’t get too many stray hairs but I’ve akways gotten some in my miles, and as I’ve gotten older I have a couple on my jawline. I tweeze then when they are grabbable.
one fun preg side effect I get though it a ridiculous amount of long ass wiry hairs around my nipples. Dead sexy. I tweeze them too when I think of it. I love tweezing hairs lol.
Good lord I'm never going a full day without checking this bmb again!
This thread is blowing my mind. First @neeraja_k not being her avatar pic, and now @calimom2524 looking nothing like I expected either. Once we get to fb I'm gonna be so confused
+1 on wiry nipple hair. Fun times.
I got a balayage around Halloween and touched it up at Christmas and LOVE it. No maintenance and it looks as good as it did when I got it. Mine is subtle, just adding some caramel color to my medium/darkish brown hair.
For those who struggle with curling hair, I was the same way. I just could not, and always ended up burning myself somewhere, somehow. Right before black Friday a friend told me about the Beachwaver and I got a killer deal. You put the hair in to the little clip and then push a button and it rotates itself. I've since been able to curl my hair (when I have the energy) like a pro! I feel like my ability to make myself look human went up a level that day haha
