In my opinion, the most common factor in nail growth and overall quality (that can easily be addressed without too much effort) is dryness.

I'm down with MCC, yeah you know me!

brain games is so fun!

oh god, the magnified mirror! I have fair hair with dark wiry ones under my chin and at my jawline only. My hair is also extremely curly which translates to flat hairs that are really hard to get out, which means a lot of scarring.

my scalp picking started after I started an SSRI also. I feel the compulsion of it is not mitigated, but maybe if the trigger is anxiety related it would target it that way?

Yes, I really enjoy the pop these particular hairs, I do it most often bed at night.

Yes! I gouged my leg where I found an ingrown hair I couldn't just ignore. I have a pea sized scar half a year later that is even recessed from all the picking I did at the scab.

I have a particularly hairy face so I will spend hours in front of a mirror with tweezers sometimes. My boyfriend will remind me sometimes that time is still going along normally in the world outside of my head... But... You know... If I'm in the zone... Sometimes I just find any surface like my fingernail that the…

I mean, it's like the weirdest shit ever! Clear and gooey with a boba-like ball at the end and it just came out of your *face* by pulling out a tiny little hard hair! Omg I need to go find a mirror... And my tweezers... I'm part of something!

My scalp is insanely itchy, but for no apparent medical reason. I scratched it to the point of scabbing; my doctor said just stop. As the scabs build I'm convinced my head hairs are getting ingrown, and that's why it itches so so so much, so I scratch the scabs off occasionally finding a hair that got trapped in the…

she can't change the volume of her hair. and even if she could instantly do so, why should she? we have know way of knowing how much her hair was inconveniencing this couple so i give her the benefit of the doubt based on the way the "disgusting" couple reacted.

i'm starring just for your name

her hair wasn't even that big. he was being rude plain and simple. i'm short and i have to constantly move myself to see around taller people no matter what i paid for a ticket or where i'm sitting. i can't just tell people to sit further down in their seats or lean over or some bs. they paid just as i did and they…

She also paid the same amount of money for those tickets. Yeah, he's the asshole.

I'm glad I no longer think you're actually a troll and that we had a productive conversation! Sorry I jumped down your throat like that.

I think I genuinely misunderstood your ignorance. I'm sorry! (ignorance is not an insult in this instance it's just literally that you didn't know that a white role being given to a person of color is much different and more offensive than the other way around, or why people are even talking about race here, and how…

Neither do I, but I think we have digressed from the original point. Whether or not the casting company is racist or even has an opportunity to be racist is not what this article or this discussion is about. I think it is implicit that any entertainment in this country is going to be whitewashed.

The historical backdrops in many operas give a platform on which to cast actors and actresses for the opera. The Ring could have all white actors because it's based in Germany. Aida is based in Egypt and it's an historical period piece. There are enough good black actors and actresses to cast them in lead roles. If…

Ok, not white not black. Brown. Browner than white. Ok. Still a troll. The whiteness seen in an opera reflects the patrons as well. The whole narrative was not about the man but the lack of blackness at the opera.

people are not "white" in places like Syria, Assyria, or Persia. But OK.
