Conch piercings are awesome. I have two of them. :biggrin: I like your glasses as well.

This one is older, but you can see the baby hairs a little more clearly than on my shitty G5 ghost phone
I've always just had long hair, but I have so many snapped off 'baby hairs' at my scalp line, I almost feel like it would look better just to cut in bangs. But I don't know how they'd look with my big square head :(

Maybe side swept bangs and some side pieces?

Especially foundation and concealer brushes. I feel like those would have the most potential to cause you to break out vs eye brushes.

Makes sense. I'm really lazy so I just wash my makeup brushes every other day so they don't build up too much. I remembered something anecdotal about how too much washing can degrade brushes more quickly and got worried. A lot of my old brushes began shedding as soon as I started washing them more often a while back.

Thanks! Next on deck is a daith piercing (definitely one in my right ear, possibly one in my left ear as well, once my conch heals), and re-opening my second nostril piercing). :D And I vote sideswept bangs for you as well.

That's what I'm getting next! I like things to be kind of symmetrical, so I'm getting one on each side. I keep putting it off because wearing my big headphones is going to be a bitch with them for the first few days.

I prefer earbuds, so I feel you there. Either way, it's a bit prohibitive. I'm just glad I can sleep on my left side again. It was getting super uncomfortable, only being able to sleep on my back or my right side (I toss and turn a lot in my sleep).

In any case, I'm getting the first daith piercing (in my right ear) (and probably my second nostril re-opened with a taper and putting a glass retainer) when I get my tax refund, whenever that happens. I am so excite.
 
The hardest to heal piercing I've had was my industrial. I couldn't sleep on my right side for months, and since I had to wear an over ear headset at work, it was always getting rubbed so I developed little keloid scars on the inside and outside of both piercings D: I was lucky they went away. Kind of worried about repeating that nightmare times two.

I miss my nose piercing. I used to have a few facial piercings that I kind of aged out of, but kind of wish I still had. The only thing I regret doing is stretching my lobes. I got to an inch and half before I took them out... and... well..

I wish I had the ear structure for an industrial. As you can probably tell from the picture I posted upthread, my cartilage ridge is completely flat. There's just no ridge at all. Buuut, I can get fancy daith, rook, conch, etc. piercings, so there's that, I guess. Just no super fancy cool looking forward-helix piercings. ;-;

I've also been thinking of stretching my lobes. Nothing too out-there, maybe just to 8g or so. (In other words, not past the point of no return.)

I've been debating taking out my nose ring and letting the piercing heal but I'm too scared I'll end up regretting it plus I don't want it to leave a scar

It might scar, but when you take it out, if you massage the area with emu oil, it will minimize the chances of scarring.
 
The only piercings I've taken out that has left a 'scar' were my lip rings. They aren't so much scars as just little dents where the studs went in. It's nothing really noticeable. I can't imagine a nose piercing would be much different.

I'm too fickle to commit to something like a tattoo or piercing. I think I'm just scared of commitment because every few years I'm following a different fashion or aesthetic.

I feel you on the tattoos. I've always wanted one and I think if I ever did get one I'd probably chicken out and get a small inconspicuous one. I feel like a lot of piercings are pretty easily reversible/redoable though so I haven't been as worried about those.

My fashion/aesthetic changes so often that I have existential crises over it every few months

It isn't. You can just barely see where my nose piercing was.

Also, right now, I'm going from 7/16g to 4g and it's slow going, but at least it's going. I was worried I wouldn't be able to size down again but I can, it's just gonna take a while. I'm trying to find another job so I've had to seriously tone down my whole look and that's part of it. Also, I just really missed wearing spirals; I had these gorgeous Pyrex super spirals when I was in school that were clear and had rainbow dichro flakes in them, but I broke one and I'm trying to find something like them. I think I cried for an hour when I dropped that thing and it snapped... one is still intact but the other is done for.

I had a girly stuff moment that was just too close to Chris level.

Monday at work I dumped coffee on me so I had to go to Walmart to buy a new shirt and bra so I wouldn't reek of coffee all day. The only bra my size was this bra that was like those genie bras that were popular a few years ago. No underwire bras were my size. Anyways, I change clothes and holy crap, this bra was exactly like those ugly sports bras Chris wears that gives you one flat uniboob.
 
Are salon shampoos and conditioners actually substantially better than drug store ones and is it true that the higher concentration means that if one partitions them properly that they are the same price yet with better results

Yes and no. I get to try a lot of stuff because of where I work and I can tell you right now, some brands just survive on name recognition. Some of the most expensive product we carry is over-priced, over-fragranced garbage and I can't believe it sells as well as it does, while other lines that have the same price point but are actually consistently worth the money don't sell at all. It's all about name recognition and marketing.

There are some product lines that are less expensive but they're hit and miss. We have one brand that retails in-salon for like $12 for 10oz and it's utter garbage, but another one we sadly don't carry anymore retailed for $20 for 17oz and it was some of the best product I ever used.
