I just got 2 beauty boxes (thanks Brandi!) and I can definitely say it’s awesome! I don’t do makeup. I do like skincare stuff, though, and I got a Glossybox, an Amor Naturals, and Fortune Cookie beauty boxes (I should see the Fortune Cookie one tonight when I get home).

People need to work on their aim, obviously.

Barlean’s makes an orange-flavored fish oil supplement for omega 3 that does not give me fish burps. I am ... there isn’t even a good enough word, but to say “sincerely disgusted by” the smell/taste of fish, so I take fish burps really seriously.

I get a beauty box from Amor Naturals, and they have a mask that’s honey, avocado oil, vitamin E, and a clay of some sort. It feels, smells, and works lovely!

I don’t know where you are, but I’ve been going to Meetups locally for stuff I love (music) and I’ve met quite a few really neat people.

I used to do software QA, and I’d been at a company for about 4 years. Great company, but the pay was significantly sub-par, and there were no raises in our future, so I was looking for another job.

Nope, the conditioner-as-shampoo thing. So, no foaming, just moisturizing. It seems counter-intuitive, but moisturizing the living hell out of my hair has helped me not have as greasy a scalp.

Jaysus, that’s awful.

OMG yes! High-five! Yeah, I truly, honestly have like THICK BLACK MAN HAIR and it’s incredibly embarrassing and I hate it. My faves are the clear ones that you can’t see and when you do notice them it’s because they’re like 3 inches long and waving in the breeze. Ugh ugh ugh.

Quick question: I am the same way. My scalp just greases the hell out within about 26 hours of washing it. I keep a hat in my bag for days where I didn’t have time to shower.

Man, I feel for you. I have had the opposite experience, so every time I hear about the horrors of curly hair-havers, I feel like a jerk. My stylists have always wanted to make my hair curly when they’re finishing up. I only recently started doing the no-poo thing, and I have an appointment this weekend with my…

Honestly, I think most people are OK with this as long as you’re genuinely saying, “I trust you to do this right.” Ask for a suggestion! Ask the other stylists. Ask other customers. Don’t be shy! Going to a fun salon can be really empowering because the good ones are like those old movies where the ladies are all…

Nice! Thanks, I’ll give it a shot.

I heard you had to look in the mirror and say “CINCINNATI CHILI” 5 times to summon Pinkham.

Ugh. I remember last summer looking for a local place to get a pedicure. There aren’t that many places in the area, but a bunch of Yelp reviews had people from New York who griped about how expensive our pedicures were here. They usually run about $35-$50, depending on where you go and whether you get the deluxe…

Nope! I only just recently got health insurance again, so I haven’t really been up on any kind of newish (last 5 years or so) stuff. I’ll check it out, thanks!

Yeah, high-five super pale buddy!

So, is that the blood of her fallen opponents on her teeth or what?

Legit question:

I am a mythical bearded lady (thanks, PCOS!) and I shave every day. Otherwise I grow a fab beard.
