Faith ,'End of Days'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But, I mean, what happened to all those hairdressers who dealt with people getting spiral perms in the 80s and early 90s? They had to cut curls. Where'd they all go?
Retired? 1982 was thirty years ago. Techniques go out of vogue. Most stylists nowadays know flat-irons best.
I'm working on Stories from the Sidelines of Science, still. I'd love to talk about it all with you and write a story about pain treatment and minorities.
It would dovetail nicely in between the story on Chuck D and the story on confirmation bias.
Wouldn't a person with chronic pain have to know how to put on a good face to the world?
It's been years. I used to cry every time I went into the ER, the first few months. It was terrifying, I was hurting, it was awful. But it takes so much energy, and it makes everything feel worse. I have had migraines bad enough recently that I cried through the whole thing, but luckily, while they're awful, I know they can be worse (because they have been), and my reporting of pain levels reflects that.

I don't know what I have to say, but I'd be happy to answer questions.
When my sister started working at a new salon, all the other hairdressers stood around her looking amazed when she did a foil wrap.

No it wasn't! It was just last week! Your math and your calendars have no bearing on my personal worldview!

Everyone who got spiral perms were getting layer cuts, because the point was MAXIMUM VOLUME.
Also, speaking from my 20+ years ago experience in cosmetology school, we didn't learn that you needed to cut curly hair differently than straight hair. Most of the techniques I was taught were about how to deal with hair that had been massively damaged by chemicals.
Tangentially related, I miss Fanci-full conditioning rinse. They had the best color of pastel cotton candy pink!
I am in serious need of summer clothes and there's nothing at all I want in the stores right now.
Seriously. Last time I went clothes shopping, everything was drapey and see-through.
I wanted to get some cardigans or light jackets to wear over sleeveless tops for work, and I was annoyed at how all of the cover ups had these flowy openings. Can I get a damned button? A hook and eye?
I want crisp woven cotton (or linen) princess-seamed blouses with cap sleeves. You can imagine my pain. Even Lands End is going through a drapey phase.
