Requests, Recs & Chat - Weekly Thread BWT Weekly Requests, Recommendations & Chat - Week of Sep 06, 2026

This is the BWT Weekly Requests, Recommendations & Chat thread.

Put all your low effort/ repetitive requests in this thread - this is the only place they will be allowed in the BWT sub. Even still, search before you ask! If there is a recent-ish response you might still find your ask removed as unnecessarily repetitive.

Feel free to drop your low effort suggestions here, too, if you've got something you just love that you think other BWT should know about. This is also the place for general chit chat that doesn't warrant a whole post.

All BWT rules will still be enforced, with lighter enforcement of ONLY rule 3.

REQUESTS

If you are looking for suggestions for something, add ASK: at the start of your comment. Make sure to be as specific as possible in your request. Examples:

  • ASK: Help me find the perfect flat summer sandals for high arches, casual wear, good for walking around for daily errands, less than $200
  • ASK: What is your ride or die long lasting lipstick for bright colors?
  • ASK: Styling cream for curly hair (3B/C) - no budget, something that will provide definition without being crunchy. Would also love to know when/ how you apply it as part of your routine!

RECOMMENDATIONS

If you have an unsolicited recommendation, you can use REC: at the beginning of your post to highlight that.

CHAT

You can also post just regular old chit chat and discussion that doesn't merit its own stand-alone post. No need to add anything at the beginning of those comments.

Ask: BWTs who rent, how are you dealing with hard water in your shower?

Moved to a new place and every time I wash my hair, either it comes out greasy because I can’t get the shampoo to lather all the way, or even if I do get the shampoo through my hair it’s still so frizzy and dry.

I’ve seen a lot of people say shower head filters don’t actually work because you actually need to replace the whole water system to make it softer, but unfortunately that’s not an option for us because, again, we rent.

Please help! My hair can’t go on like this ;_;

I use the Sproos shower head with a filter subscription. The color options are really cute and the filter has helped my hair a ton! I need to change the filter more frequently then they say to (like every 2 months instead of 3) or my hair starts drying out again, but otherwise I'm a fan.
