For the last time, that is my home not a "clubhouse."

This is the third floor of an abandoned mining facility. Whole loving county is built on top of a giant network of lead mines. Highest cancer rate in the state. I sat down to catch my breath and one of my friends started laughing his rear end off because it looked like a senior picture.

Without order there is chaos. But actually, I leave work at 6, and it takes me an hour and a half to get home. The 3pm apple is perfectly timed to keep me going until I get there.


Update: Apple was good.

I just have to go outside and I can see penguins, I work at a zoo. Not a keeper sadly. There's too many people outside right now though because it's field trip season and there's thousands of kids running around and it makes me uncomfortable.

Is the apple lying on your favourite notebook that you use to record the color, size and schedules of every train in a 50 mile radius and are you listening to a soothing .wav file of 60 minutes of train noises on loop, in your headphones?

No but she gets really mad when she brushes her hair because it hurts and by now I know well enough to just go to the other end of the house whenever she's been in the shower.

I keep my hair short and fancy free because I have a similar texture, and it is so thick/unruly that once I lost a snake inside it (true!)

Alternating between silicone-heavy "smoothing" or "glossing" products and a clarifying shampoo should give your hair enough slip to detangle easier. Similarly, if the issue is dryness/the cuticles of the hair catching on one another, consider humectant products to maintain moisture, or an after-shampoo balm (I use two parts coconut oil, one part shea butter and two parts silicone-free conditioner).

I don't know if I've ever looked for silicone in my hair products! Time to lube this baby up!

I definitely go through gallons upon gallons of argan and coconut oil

If your hair is sensitive to protein, coconut oil will make it tangle more readily, since it inhibits protein loss and can counteract moisture levels. Also, silicone is present in most hair products, most commonly under amodimethicone or dimethicone, the former of which is water soluble IIRC, so it can wash out the next cycle. If you're looking for something with heavy silicones, it's usually marketed as "glossing" or "smoothing" products.

My suggestion would be to clarify your hair (which, in a pinch, you can do with dish soap) and then moisturize the poo poo out of it, and see if that solves tangling before loving with all your products. Chances are you just have too much protein in your hair.

I used to douse my hair in coconut oil when it was long before I washed it and I couldn't figure out why I was still getting split ends.

:downs: I woke up one morning to see my cat gently suckling on my hair.
