I regularly get temporary hair color to some of my hair (pinks or purples). Because they fade slightly with each wash, my goal is to only wash once a week in cold water to get the most bang for my buck. Days 1-3 no additional products needed, dry shampoo 4,5, (some hair pulled back/styled up) and days 6,7 I’ll put my hair up. I still shower regularly, just put my hair up and cover it when I do. Depending on activity levels if I’m getting sweaty, I’ll probably shorten it to a 5 day cycle.

According to the lady I go to she has plenty of women that have weekly hair appointments for a wash, blowout, and style that basically do the same (and no - they’re not all “old ladies.”)

What if you’re the jetpack but your partner is gassy? Damn lactose intolerance.

Seriously, I was raised with so much propaganda.

Up until my late twenties I had believed basically everything I was taught in school. I never had reason to question it, as I was basically living in a bubble. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that when the colonists arrived to this country, it wasn’t just big empty open spaces that the native Americans gladly shared with us. Funny enough, that’s roughly when I gained access to the internet.

Please don’t include X with the boomers. Since we stepped into the real world and realized it functions completely differently than what we were raised to believe, life’s just been a neverending string of “wait, that was wrong too?” We just want to survive another day under the radar.

Sorry fellow X’rs for publicly acknowledging our existence. Hopefully this post doesn’t get any upvotes. *Pulls blanket back over my head.
