Can I ask a DUMB question

[tapioca_pudding]

My kind of thread..

so .. what is IMO?
Chelating?? Is that like Clarifying...
How do you bump a thread?

Honestly, I just type the word bump with some characters.. and I think it gets moved.

What is that hard stuff that people put on their nails at the salon. It dries clear and has to be dryed with a UV light I think. Its quick and the nails come out beautiful. It isnt acrylic either..

wow Ihave so many questions.
They will come out through out the day. lol
I garuntee.

I have a lot of blonde moments on here.

IMO - In My Opinion (a variation of IMHO - In My Humble Opinion)

Chelating is like clarifying, but it goes a bit deeper in that it removes mineral deposits from your hair. There is a better explanation but I can't remember where I saved it...

Yup, you bump a thread by replying to it with 'Bump' or ... just so it will be "bumped" back up to the first page of the forum.

It's called Solar something, I can't remember off the top of my head... It's it's a process that seals in the 'clear n shiny' look of your nails w/o the need for clear polish. That's how it was explained to me, anyway. Someone else said that when you get UV gel instead of acrylic, they use the Solar stuff to seal in the UV.. erplexed Not 100% on that one.

Great thread!

To ladies with relaxed hair who co-wash every day or every other day, What kinds of styles are you wearing?

I would like to try co-washing, however, I would not know what to do with it afterwards

 

[Eisani]

Yep, you can get a Dom blowout is you're stretching or transitioning

...or not. It's certainly not limited to naturals/transitioners . There are plenty of relaxed women who get them done as well however, for obvious reasons, it does help one to stretch/transition if that's their desire.

I usually did a Wash n Go (see my avatar) or I'll put it in a lil bun w/ a cute hair accessory.

I love this thread, I have always wanted to ask these things but felt silly.



HOw do you all do the pretty pics, especially the comparison pics in your siggy? I just love the little strips w/3 and 4 pics.

How do you post a picture in a thread? I haven't been able to successfully do this.

How do you multiquote?

 

[Kutie85]

How do you multiquote?

Go to User CP (Look at the top of your screen, it's in white in the same row as 'Search'). When you get to your Control Panel, on the left hand side of your screen you should see 'Edit Signature'. You can either enter a link if you have your picture uploaded, or do it as an attachment.

Alot of ladies here seem to be using http://www.pikifx.com/ps/home . I haven't played around with it yet but it seems easy enough. Looks like your just upload your pics and it will create the little strip for you.

Posting a picture in a thread - It depends on if you're posing an uploaded picture or an attachment.

Uploaded - While you're in the "Reply" box, click "Insert Image" which is above the reply box. It's the little button that looks like this -

Then just copy/paste the link where you pic is located.

Attachment - While you're in the "Reply" box, click "Manage Attachments" which is below the reply box under 'Additional Options'. From there you can click 'Browse' to find the pic that's saved on your PC and then once you've selected it, click 'Upload'. Should show up in your post.

I hope I explained this well.. I'm kinda tying on the fly... Maybe someone else will come in w/ a better explanation if mine isn't the greatest.

To Multiquote -

Next to the 'Reply' button is a smaller button that looks like this - a quotation mark w/ a plus sign.

For each post that you want to quote, click on that button once. Once you have clicked all the posts that you want to quote, hit 'Post Reply' and all the quotes should be there.

HTH...

I dont know about pictures...To multiqote there is a button to the right of the qoute button, it has parenthesis i think, and what looks like a peice of white paper with writing on it....You click on that button for everyone you want to qoute, it will turn orage or something, then on the last person you want to quote, press the regualr "qoute" button and it will all apear in the box that you type in.

Oh i was all late with that answer ....

I always wondered what the team bootymeat was, nice thread.

 

[LivingDoll]

I have one...

How long does hair have to be for a dominican blowout? Mine isn't long but it's long enough to roll on some yellow or pink rollers I think.

 

[tyrablu]

Thanks . Cause this questions has been on my mind for a long time

I think they are wearing buns

Gotcha. So what happens when your hair isn't long enough for a bun

You see the last picture in my siggy? I had a Dom. blowout done the next weekend w/ that length. Not sure what your length is (I have siggies/avis turned off) but she had no prob doing mine.

I didn't get a blowout tho - she did a rollerset and then flat ironed my roots. But a blowout should be no prob.

Oh Team Buttmeat was/is a Team of ladies who were tryin to grow meat on their butt Squats/lunges, etc. We had a whole thread about it in the Fitness forum...

Okay. Thanks. I'm gonna try it.

So...did anybody get more buttmeat? I may need to join that challenge!

BTW, why do you turn off siggies/avi's?

 

[mezzogirl]

What is a "wash and go" or "wash and wear". Do you just wash your hair and however it dries that's how you wear it, no styling?

That is basically it. I add a leave in and moisturizers. I don't comb or style it. I let the curls do what they want.

I know a few of the ladies did have some success! Mine is definitely improving.. higher and rounder.. yessir!

I turn off siggies/avis mainly because I'm usually on LHCF while I'm at work..... It's kinda difficult explaining all these hair/back/bra pics on my screen. If I wanna see someone's siggy/avi, I'll just go to their profile.

 

[BeaLady]

What is slip?

That makes sooo much sense!

The ease in which a comb slides through your hair...it slips through without tangling.
