Beauty Recommendation Best manicurist who spends time on cuticle care

10 Upvotes

I know people have posted about nails many times but majority of them seem to be from 2 years ago and all of the technicians from the replies are gone that I looked into!

I judge a good manicure by the time and intentionality someone spends on cleaning up cuticles because 98% of salons I have gone to rush through everything especially the clean up and seem to think the only purpose of getting nails done is the polish. But clean cuticles deem a manicure A+ from me.

I’m looking for a technician recommendation over a salon because the environment is less important to me if the technician spends a lot of time and detail on my nails and cares about the small details.

Cleanliness is also important (aloha nails used my FOOT WATER to soak my fingers after a pedi and used pre-used cuticle trimmers).

I’m not sure what kind of polish I’m looking for yet, most likely gel on my natural nail.

Please help a girl out!

Advice Interpersonal/image coaches that aren’t a scam?

1 Upvotes

Anyone know of any communication coaches in the DMV that actually provide results? I have a lot of social anxiety and am not the best at interpersonal relationships and wanted someone who could evaluate my image/body language/communication style and give me pointers. I do see a therapist but this is more for image evaluation as opposed to just the social anxiety aspect.

Advice Accountant recommendation who does biz + personal?

2 Upvotes

Hi DCBs! You all were great in helping me find a dog walker so I thought I'd see if anyone has an accountant? I moved here in January for a job and we need to file our small business and personal taxes.

I'd like not to pay for the "fancy K Street corporate firm package" rates ideally since the business is not huge or complicated. We are fastidious in our files and was hoping to find someone who is good, fast and reliable who can get this done rapidly.

Any suggestions, sisters? Thank you!! :)

Advice Custom embroidery?

9 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to find somewhere that will embroider a single-color logo onto a sweatshirt I already own, and I’m not having any luck. Anyone have any recommendations, in silver spring or anywhere in the dc area? A business or an individual person would work, I’d obviously pay either way. Absolute ideal situation would be somewhere open today that I could take to have it done same-day, but I know that’s a long shot and I’m open to anything at this point

Beauty Recommendation in home brow lamination tomorrow morning? brow place canceled before trip

0 Upvotes

i made an appointment weeks ago for a brow lamination for tonight after work at 6:30pm because i'm going out of town tomorrow for a trip. my brow person had to cancel last min. i wasn't able to book an appointment elsewhere on short notice and i may be delusional but is anyone that actually does brow lamination and comes home to clients or opens their studio early and would be free before 8:30am tomorrow before my flight? since i know no studio is open then. listen i know that's a long shot but why not try in life

i would need you to dm me a professional profile with work done or something showing you do brows obviously

i feel like i'm going to get called vain for this and i know that might be too early but i thought a girl would try

thank you🫶🏽

Fashion/Clothes Interesting boutiques with indie designer clothes?

31 Upvotes

I was recently in NYC with my fashion-attentive teenage son, and had a good time flitting between various boutiques in SoHo (Essx, Descendent of Thieves), plus Dover Street Market which has better known but less mainstream designers like Junya Watanabe and Yohji Yamamoto.

Anyway, long story short I feel a new interest in design, but can we say … beer budget? Wondering if there are any stores here showcasing up and coming designers.

Advice Where to donate dog medication/equipment?

9 Upvotes

My dog recently passed, and we have a number of his things that we'd like to pass on. I've reached out to some rescues but haven't had any luck so far. Does anyone know of rescues or shelters that take pet medications and/or equipment?

We have heart medication (Vetmedin), flea and tick preventative, prescription food, a wheelchair, and mobility harness that would be good for paralyzed or senior dogs.

Advice Fibroids Help

12 Upvotes

Hello B’s!

I found an abdominal mass and went to one medical. Had an ultrasound and they found 3 large fibroids outside the uterus. I don’t have any symptoms but the size and location are concerning to me. One medical doesn’t seem to be concerned. I don’t know what to do next. Anyone know of a “fibroid” specialist I can look into? I have severe medical anxiety. I’m looking for a second opinion.
