u/Anxious-Tomatillo-74

just moved to flower mound a couple weeks ago and its time to get my hair cut. im a girl and really need a good specialist who can do a proper layered cut without messing it up.

a colleague at work recommended david ryan salon so i looked at their page and liked the styles but id love more options from locals. any other salons or stylists here that are actually worth it?

thanks for the help guys

My child is starting soon and I’m probably more nervous than they are.

I keep wondering how they’ll adjust being away from home for that long.

For those who’ve been through it, how did the first few days go?

I know this sounds gatekeepy and I swear I'm not trying to be that person. But there's something about finding a really unique fragrance that feels like it was made just for you, only to smell it on every other person at the grocery store six months later. Polo 67 is the most recent example for me. Objectively it smells great. I can't even point to anything wrong with it. But because it's everywhere now, I've completely gone off it. My brain just registers it as generic cologne smell instead of the nice scent it actually is.

I think part of it is that fragrance is so personal. When a scent goes mainstream, it loses that little bubble of privacy around it. I'm not saying people shouldn't wear what they like. Wear whatever makes you happy. I'm just curious if anyone else feels that little twinge of disappointment when something you loved blows up. Or am I just being weird about this?

Also kind of related but does this happen with candles for anyone else? I feel like once a candle scent gets pumped into every home goods store it stops feeling special. Curious to hear other thoughts.

we are moving from the chicago suburbs to phoenix in late may, it's me, my wife, two kids, one dog, one cat, a moving truck, and two cars. we already booked flights because doing the whole drive with kids and pets in the summer sounds miserable, but now we haven't yet decided what to do with the 2nd car. we are thinking about shipping it and just having it arrive a few days after us.

can someone recommend any shipping companies they've used and trust?

i’ve been shopping at both lately and i still can’t decide which one i like more.

lidl feels a bit more “polished” to me, but aldi sometimes has better prices on basics. then again, lidl bakery is hard to beat.

curious what others think - if you had to pick one as your main store, which would it be and why?
