Re: Calling all Midwestern LCHF Ladies: NE, IA, MO, KS, CO, SD, ND, MN! Midwest meet

I am with you my dear...I live in the plymouth area and I have been getting sew in from a family member who just moved to DC and it's hard to find a great salon or stylist to commit to...


I have been doing my own sew in but I will like to be pampered sometimes lol

We're growing! :yay:

Lots of people asked about dealing with cold. Feel free to chime in via the thread about what you all do.

My answer:

I moisturize and deep con more. I try to drink lots more water. I bun a lot and rarely wear my hair out so I don't lose any length to breakage by wool coats and hats, etc. I wear my scarf to bed faithfully. I baby and seal my moisturized ends.

Do you mean a satin-lined winter hat? I know some people just go to the fabric store, purchase 100% silk or satin fabric and either stitch it inside their hats or use the stitchless hemming tape to stick it in there. HTH!

And thanks for replying! :hiya:

Great, great suggestion and information!

Okay, so I got here and it's single-digit temperatures! Or negatives! I mean, I knew it would be cold, but dang! :lol:

Can't wait to get back to the 20-something temperatures in Michigan. :lachen:
