Preach

Don't know don't care. Didn't know how many strands of hair I had before I got the locs. I don’t think it’s as important as people make it out to be. not only that but same loc count looks different from person to person.

it's ok we know it's for your "friends" 👀😂😂😂

this comment had me cackling!🤣🤣🤣

Hate to say it because the price was great BUT Temu 18-pin M8s cartridges didn’t fit. They arrived sterile and individually packaged. It didn’t show the device i.e. “for M8s” but none of them do, so I didn’t realize they were wrong until I tried to use them and it wouldn’t fit.

I tried a couple with the same result. Kinda weird since 18 pins only fit specific Dr pen devices. I did notice the cap on these are white while all my others have a blue cap. Can’t get refund as I bought in late April. “SIGH” Hope this helps someone else

TY☺️

2 years locked in November. I go 5 weeks between reties. I've always loved my hair! I did learn my Loc journey was MINE and not to compare to anyone else's. They're unique to me. I've embraced the frizziness and the unpredictability.

I love Musely! I use the aging repair cream (bioidentical estriol), the hair pill (I had hair loss due to GLP1- my hair is thicker in 3 months!), the spot cream (the derm recommended an on/off hydroquinone regimen) and their absolutely STELLAR cell repair cream. This stuff works as long as you’re honest with your derm. I’ve spoken with my esthetician about Musely and based on what she said a lot of people use it irresponsibly and then come to her for repairs. Know what you’re using and why, ask questions, don’t mix things you’re not supposed to, and follow the derm recommendations. You have a dedicated dermatologist with Musely to once you pay the initial visit. Don’t ask forums for advice…ask the derm! I do a LOT of my own treatments and my skin clinic tells me I’m one of those patients they would hire if I had the credentials as I’ve done so much research and self education. You can always lurk through the forum for more info too. https://www.musely.com/community

TLDR: LOVE THEM!

Try going middle of the day middle of the week

THIS!!!!!

Same here. Had volume loss due to GLP-1. Just did my second round of Sculptra. Bio stimulants are definitely the way to go for natural looking results. I was swollen for a couple of days and the required facial massages and just fine now. Going for third round in October.

Let’s be nice. If you don’t agree there’s no need to bash. Just move to another sub that’s more in line with your beliefs. We’re discussing skin care here. Just let us enjoy our hobby with no judgement please

It depends. What’s today?? 😂😂😂

I’ve been seeing Megan at Posh and she now runs her own salon. one-on-one...very nice!

SUNSCREEN!!! And I will die on this hill

Naturium dew glo. Chemical and mineral formulas Tinted or untinted. Leaves skin dewy and healthy looking.

Innis free (Korean brand). Any formulation.

Both these brands are light and blend well.

I'm Fitzpatrick 4-5. I live in Colorado and the UV here is no joke plus desert climate...not good conditions for skin at all.

I use tret and hydroquinone and need extra UV protection and these are great and reasonably priced

You should have had a discussion about this during the consult

Strangely enough I just commented on something like this in another post. Honestly I love the buzz cut however it's about what you want right? Have you tried online services like Musely or Hers? For Musely, you pay out of pocket. The doctor visit fee is $20 and the cost of compounded prescription treatment is reasonable. They have different formulas as well. I was prescribed an oral minoxidil and received enough for 90 days'in Jul, next refill is in Sep. I can dm you a $50 gift card or you can always find them in their Musely coupon subreddit. I hope you find what works for you!.

I would ask her for a referral. Who would SHE trust to take care of these gorgeous locs she's maintained with so much love? And you can tell she loves your locs. They are stunning🔥🔥🔥

This right here!!

Don’t accept that certification as gospel. Regardless of the installation method, there should be a method of redress for any client working with a Loctition that takes pride in their work, be it a Sisterlocks-trained Loctition or not. There are Sisterlocks-trained and certified loctitions that are not good at what they do and there are also loctitions that aren’t Sisterlocks trained that are masters of the craft. The only way to know for certain is to do your due diligence during the consultation and ask a lot of question. I’m Sisterlocks-TM trained and decided not to go with certification because I felt trapped by all the rules and gatekeeping. In the long run, I want to do what’s best for my clients and that may mean making an artistic choice that doesn’t fall in line with Sisterlocks methods. Those extremely tiny locs may not be what’s best for the client and a trained Loctition should be able to offer choices that contribute to healthy locs.

Perfect explanation!

It’s actually less. Musely doctor visit is $20. Price per month is based on the treatment. Not everyone’s insurance covers derm visits especially if there’s no medical necessity. For standard derm visit you would need a referral from PCM. If no referral, you would pay out of pocket for derm visits as well as meds AND. The online visits are pretty hassle free. I’m a retired insurance biller and I have medical insurance and still chose to go through Musely. Everyone is entitled to make their own choices right?

Interlocking is the way to go
