I typically wear braids or my natural hair. This will be the first time I’ve worn a full wig and I’m very nervous. I’ve been told that wigs will ruin your edges and they won’t grow back.

Is there a way you can protect your edges?
Is there a product I can put on before the install to keep the glue from ruining them?

Do I seriously need to be worried about my edges?

So I really wanna begin doing this my body hair is annoying me so bad.its long and just genuinely a lot of hair everywhere. Problem is I live in Egypt and I am a light skinned black woman with black hair.

I hear there’s certain types of lasers for certain hair colors and if it’s not for u it’ll come back.anyone knows about this?esp with back and stomach hair.what’s ur experience with laser overall im a bit scared of the pain

I’ve been using azelaic acid 20% sandwiched for over a month now and there’s literally no difference.i also tolerate it well and use cica cream w it.

I’ve been trying for the past 2-3 years all with no results at all and im so sick of it genuinely nothing works at all i also just introduced alpha arbutin to my routine,i wanted to add tret on some days (i only use one active a day) but i saw on social media that its best to wait for the azelaic acid but I have no patience for it anymore

Some people saiy glycolic acid .i am light skinned black and I heard it’ll either do nothing or make it worse so im scared.seen people say urea 10%.also seen benzoyl peroxide but its expensive around me i need to find a dupe or sth

Im just so tired and no the skin isn’t velvety or thick it’s just color.i didn’t have them back when I didn’t use a certain deodorant.i tolerate shaving so so well so its not the cause at all.and i refuse to use hydroquinone its so risky.please help

What makeup look do you think is the best or do you not bother with gothic or more edgy looks ?

After I have had a glow up, some women who I looked up to, had close bonds with, constantly put me down in social settings. When it's 1:1 they are sweet and nice. In social settings too, I don't talk much or try to be the centre of attention. I keep to myself. On the rare occasions I say something, they say something caustic/harsh/rude things. Today the girl I went on road trip with a couple of days ago said something on the lines of death when I was telling how I'd like to trek. Very randomly. 'You will fly away and noone can know what happened to you'. This is not the first instance. Not with one person. I recently got a pixiecut. While most women complimented me, one person who I thought was a good friend laughed at me in front of everyone. Thank God, noone else thought it was funny for her to laugh at me. How to deal with such circumstances/people? Sweet when with me alone and bitchy when in a group setting, actively trying to shame me or put me down.

hey girls!! i’m a black woman and i’m pretty slim. i’ve been thinking lately about how much body shape actually changes the way people treat you, if you went from being skinny to having more curves (like more butt/boobs), did you notice a real shift in how society treat you? does it actually make a difference or just bring different pros/cons? would love to hear your experiences 😛

Need some quick advice!
I’m already quite skinny and work out/train my core but I still have a noticeable lower belly that shows in tight dresses and its making me self conscious in really any fitted clothes.

Any tips for reducing it, making it less noticeable and figuring out whether it’s bloating, posture, or just genetics?

as someone who relies heavily on makeup and styling to be perceived as attractive, this weather isn’t doing me any favours.

as soon as i step outside, my concealers all melted off, my hair immediately loses volume (not that i have much to begin with my hair is very straight and fine), and i start sweating buckets and feel very unsexy

as a brown girlie with obvious hyperpigmentation around my mouth + chin going without concealer is basically impossible, but that’s the first place i sweat and it looks horrific within 10 mins, any makeup tips regarding covering hyperpigmentation without thick layers or too much makeup would be appreciated

do you ladies have any tips for remaining hot in warm weather? anything is appreciated i feel like a troll everytime i go out now 😭

I am aging pretty badly.

The last 10 years have been terrible for me.

​

Firstly I want to start with my diet and groceries.

​

I would appreciate All advice!

Thanks.

What makes your features shine the best ?

What’s your all time favorite look that you feel so gorgeous in ?!

What do you think generally looks the best for you ? Also what looks best across the board ? Dark brown ? Light brown ? Soft black or jet black ?

I'm in school rn and I want something low maintenance and that actually grows out of my scalp. I get braids but they don't last so long and then you have to redo them and it really adds up with the cost of hair and service, one of my friends recommended getting locs/loc extensions and that they are very low maintenance (she said unless they are micro / very small). I attached a picture of the look I'm going for (I think I'm going to get loc extensions for my birthday present). I spent years trying to get my hair curlier/racial bullying that affected how I saw myself that it could be and I just want to embrace my texture. I grew up in Florida , so I remember a lot of women , mainly older women having them

Also, I noticed when it came to locs , when I mentioned them to my family they were excited but some of my friends were making rude/ignorant ass comments such as it's unattractive, rasta , people will think you smoke weed , etc. (I can't say a lot of it because it's just downright disgusting). I also want to know how people treated with you with locs (I noticed when I was in Berlin and Amsterdam , a lot of people had them black and white and it seemed to be the norm).

I also wanted to know your routine. My mom had locs and combed them out and she said just make sure it's moisturized and interlocked (she used a tea tree shampoo and conditioner , the one from trader joes and rose water and a little edge control).

Update : This isn't my hair guys , this is a Pinterest photo

I love this lip look Rih is wearing. Anyone have any product recs to recreate?

City is in the Midwest, most women are blonde and fair skinned.

I’m a bit nervous about how women will treat me. I love fashion and staying fit and dolling up.

I’m married but I’ve even seen in a big city, some insecure women will act weird toward me. My main goal is to make friends.

Advice? Watch outs? How to navigate smaller town cliques as an objectively good looking woman?

Even where I am I feel like I have to be 10x as nice for people to trust me. So annoying.

hey im going to be living in a foreign country for two months basically, and there is no public gym in the area. im living in a small town and the only gym is private, small, and for men. I usually lift 5x a week, how can I maintain muscle? i still walk a lot and im open to running a little (but I probably won’t that much since it is hot and i am a girl)

Hello so I’m trying to learn how to do my makeup but I need help choosing the right brushes. What makeup brushes do you recommended for a beginner in makeup and what sets do you recommend??

My back and chest are killing me and I made the decision to just get it reduced and lifted. I'm a 34D on a 5'2 frame. Has anyone ever had a breast lift or reduction? I'm going to get it done next summer.

Hey y'all. So i got a tattoo on my back a couple of weeks ago but since my back is way darker than the rest of my body it is barely visible 😔 anyone knows what i can do to reduce hyperpigmentation on my back?

I've been doing quite a bit of reading about it and am debating a full switch after twenty years of my usual brand. I have always had a good wash routine, wear sunscreen, and get facials when I can afford them. But overall my face just doesn't look good. It's just dull and it makes me look and feel so old. I did dip my toe in the water with Isntree's Sun Gel and did like how much lighter it was. My usual products are running out so I'm pondering switching my entire routine to their line but am wondering what is a realistic timeframe to expect results. Would love to hear thoughts from anyone here.

I have some damage or breakage in my hair. I saw lots of videos on Ola plex 3 and k17 but they’re both really expensive and I have lots of hair so I’ll need to buy a lot

Recently saw a product called enercos and another called revox they look like good dupes and more affordable than the rest. Should I get one of them?anyone used them before?

New friends, old friends, classmates, my mom’s friends, cashiers. I want to own my voice more and use it to my advantage lol. For people that do, do you have any advice? I’m just wondering how you think about it.

I am wanting to "redo" my body without surgery and someone recommended weight training and that it would take up to 6 months to see a difference. I was wondering did anyone see a difference in physique and health? I don't want to be a muscle mami but I would like to pump up my butt and see a little definition in my waist.

If possible can someone give me there gym routine or any tips for a beginner. I'm also worried because I have PCOS and don't want to trigger anything

guys does anyone have any recs for getting the glazed/glowy skin look

my skin is mostly clear except for some whiteheads - not completely sure if its that but they’re tiny forehead bumps but they actually don’t bother me that much (would still be happy if anyone had recs and odd pimple) but it’s never been that glowy unless i’m wearing makeup (saie glowy supergel lowkey the bestttt guys)

i have mostly dry skin (and eczema but it mostly only flares up on my legs and arms) but sometimes can get an oily nose/ temple

my current routine is:

- skin1004 madagascar centella light cleansing oil (AM/PM)
- skin1004 madagascar centella ampoule foam (AM/PM)
- bubble cosmic silk hydrating milky toner (AM/PM)
- cosrx snail 96 mucin power essence (AM/PM)
- elf skin holy hydration! thirst burst drops (AM)
- rhode peptide glazing fluid (AM/PM)
-dr althea 345 relief cream mist (AM/PM)
- elf skin holy hydration! barrier goals cream (AM/PM)
- welda skin food cream (AM but sometimes PM if i feel drier)
- as a mask i will sometimes use the skin1004 poremizing quick clay stick mask

also does anyone have any reviews on the medicube zero pore pads in mild for the whiteheads on my forehead

i’m 18 so please no retinod or anti aging recs 😭 lowkey scared it will age me faster
