I've not found a technique I like for really curly hair. Wavy to mildly curly I feel good about. Do you have a technique you like you would suggest I consider?

For the record this is the best I've done and I'm happier with it than any other attempt. But it's not a good as what's in my mind or the reference.

It really is amazing. The model kind of reminds me of Lisa Bonet, although I don't recall having seen her hair styled in that way. Bravo!

    As always, the pleasure is assuredly mine; exponentially since your art is a couples activity. Warms the cockles of muh heart.

    OT: all healed up?

    My wife brags on me often, I love it. I do the same of her.

    And my arm is fully healed, my abdomen is about 6 weeks behind my arm or so. It's not ready for sunlight yet. Maybe in another month it will be.

    But I don't go out shirtless. Just short sleeved. So for all intents and purposes I'm 100%!

    My goodness, I'm falling in love with both of you! 😍

    I'm so pleased to hear you're doing so well! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

    I don't blame you about going shirtless. Btw there was an article that a sunscreen that's been used in the EU for some time was recently approved by the US FDA. Probably nutty expensive, right now, but maybe not!

    Interesting, what's it called? We just use whatever is SPF 50 or better.

    And that's sweet, I tell her she's my favorite almost every day. Because she is!

    But since it blocks UVB, I would definitely consult my PCP about proper vitamin D intake, since apparently UVB ray absorption by our skin is what prompts the body to produce vitamin D. I am not a doctor, so perhaps one will read this and offer their thoughts.

    I'll take a look, and share it with my wife. She's allergic to the sun, gets bumps when she tans. Her constant avoidance has led to her looking much younger than me even though she's a bit older.

    My gray beard doesn't help.

    Lol. I've known people who were graying in secondary school, if it comforts you.

    🀣🀣🀣🀣

    Exactly!

    A few years ago my wife and I went to ComicCon dressed as Ron and Leslie from Parks and Rec. I shaved my beard into a stash and it looked bad. The whole day people are staring at me like they're creeped out.

    We went back the next day and not one person started at me and I still had the stash. But the "Ron" wig I had on my bald head was gone.

    It looked that bad in retrospect πŸ˜‚

    It's nice not having bad hair days anymore. I'd end up with a gumby. Low on one side high on the other side for no damn reason.

    I've hooted the whole time and will show my wife in the morning. She'll get a kick out of it! Night night!

    With utmost sincerity and respect, I send you both well-wishes and love, across whatever distance between us, soul family. May you continue to be happy and well. Please give each other a big, strong hug, in my stead. Goodnight. πŸ€—
