Hi guys! I (f27) moved to Bay Ridge about a month ago and have absolutely loved it so far, but I’ve noticed a big difference in my hair since moving!

My hair no longer feels or looks clean after I wash it. Right after showering, it looks dull, flat, and almost greasy, even though I’ve just washed it. It also doesn’t have the same shine or softness that it used to.

At first I thought it was my shampoo, but I actually stayed at a hotel over the weekend and washed my hair there. It was shiny, full of volume, and back to normal. As soon as I got home and washed it again, it went right back to looking dull, flat, and greasy :/.

I’ve also tried shampooing twice, so I don’t think it’s an issue of simply not getting enough product out. Has anyone else in Bay Ridge experienced this? Could it be something about the water or possibly the plumbing in the building? I live relatively close to the Owl’s Head water treatment plant, so I was wondering if that could have anything to do with it?

We’re considering getting a shower/water filter, but I’d love to hear from anyone who has had a similar experience. Did a shower filter actually help? If so, what kind did you get? Or is there something else you’d recommend trying first?

With the band performing their two new songs in Spain included with tour and single/album rumors swirling around, I am wondering why, to access their merch on the U.S. website, you need a password. I haven't noticed this before! I wonder if something will be announced fairly soon!

Where's the best place to do grocery shopping in Bay Ridge that's affordable? We have SuperFresh at the top of our road, it's a great store and has some good deals but it can be costly. Wondering if anyone has tips / other stores that are more affordable. Shame Trader Joe's doesn't seem to be acquiring the Century 21 store or Staples store

Hi - does anyone know of any part time jobs going in the local area, I have experience of bar backing, dish washer, and store assistant. Any leads would be greatly appreciated it’s tough out there! Thank you

Hi everyone! My husband (29) and I (27) are moving to Bay Ridge soon, and we're really excited! We are near the Bay Ridge Ave stop on the R train.

I'd love to hear your favorite local recommendations: restaurants, coffee shops, bars, bakeries, parks, hidden gems, or anything else you think every newcomer should check out. We'd also appreciate any tips or advice you wish you knew when you first moved here!

Thanks in advance!

My husband and I are newlyweds looking for a studio / 1 bed apartment in the bay ridge area. Does anyone have any leads or any realtors/ brokers please drop me a message. It’s hard out there - thank you

Looking for summer/fall 2027 on a Wed or Thurs in Manhattan or Brooklyn (easily commutable) - possibly Park Slope, Williamsburg. We will be having a ceremony in Dumbo, then an Italian meal for 20 people (close family) then move on to a wedding space/bar where guests will pay for their own drinks.

Or ceremony in Dumbo - hire a space and order in $1000 worth of pizza, guests pay for own drinks.

Does anyone have any recommendations or experience of having a wedding in this budget range? :) thank you
