thankyouz! i would most definitely jump everytime if i had a squirting toilet..unless it was warm water, that might be nice.lol but yes ill stick with my 97 cents for 4 rolls kroger brand TP. I saw some recycled toilet paper at The Fresh Market (where even though its an AMAZING store, i stopped buying from there because they dont participate with the link food stamps program, to me that is discrimination) and it was 6 dollars and some cents, too much dollar for me.
and SE although im sure your right about the cleaning part being better, i think ill stick with just using toilet paper hahahahaha. dont they like make toilets that shoot water up there so you dont have to use toilet paper? lmao that sounds uncomfortable.
So about a month ago my soulmate and I went vegetarian, To further in our spirituality, help align our chakras, to stop consuming the steroids, pesticides and other things that are put in our meat nowadays, and to not take part in the slaughter of a ton of animals, healthy body healthy mind type thing stopped eating processedanything, its been all natural organic, and meat free for about a month now and as Im cleaning today i cant help but think all these cleaners (bleach spray, windex, tub cleaner, orange wood duster) is good for me to be breathing in or the environment/earth. I know i can buy natural cleaners at the store but they are a littlepricey, is there cleaners i can make tosubstitutethese products? but im not opposed to buying the natural ones from the store. and as far as paper towels and toilet paper. should i just use rags and sponges to clean with and hand towels for eating instead of paper towels? and what to do about toilet paper or garbage bags? should i not feel bad about using these things?becausei do, i feel like changing the way i clean my home isnecessaryfor the life i want to live, as far as doing everything i can to not add to destroying the environment. My soulmate and I have already changed our bad eating habits, what we wash ourselves with (i make out hair and body wash, we use baking soda for our teeth, stopped using deodorant all together {havent really had odor since we stopped eating junk} btw baking soda is okay to use right? ) anyways, Im sure a lot of people on the site have made these same changes in their lifestyles, so was wondering if i could get some MANY tips? thankyou

with lice anything you put in there stings. ( from my experience anyways) when i was yound even the lice shampoo you buy at stores burned my scalp. but i imagin alcahol even more so, definately hair dye too. but what i used to do is sit in front of a fan that works reaaaalllly good and put your head in front of it, the stinging will hurt less, just like a cut.
though im sure SE's advice is most affective, you can also dye your hair, the fumes will kill em.
try sleeping on a wool sweater you or someone in your house might have, or a wool blanket, or buy a wool tam, stop putting your hair up. When i was going the neglect route in the beginning at 3 months iwasn'tnoticing anything at all, so i decided to notseparateit to see if it would progress, a month after that i had a knot at the nape of my neck that was so stuck i almost had to cut it out, so i did tnr for personal reasons and to avoid that ever happening again. but now that i look back to the photos of my 3 months neglect i can see it was actually starting to section, now i wish i would have continued normalseparatingand just went natural, though i am not unhappy with my decision, i see now it was influenced byinpatients.
in no way shape or form was i personlly attacking the interviewer, thats nice to know it wasnt how i thought, i did say nonetheless this is a great interview, hoping people would maybe focus more on that than the slightly negative thing i had to say about the interviewer, im all about doing more research before i judge so next time i will be sure to do so. i watch tthe interview now and dont really agree so much with what i had said before, thankyou for helping to change my perspective. But i must say that your comment on "'white' lockers" was as ignorant as my comment on the interviewer, and very hurtful.I know a lot of the history of dreadlocks and embrace people of every race and ethnicity to be a natural, organic being by any means, including their hair. My judgement on the interviewer was blind and non researched, of course she is interested, she also encourages natural hair, i am very sorry if the comment offended you or anyone else. But i would like to say i am a positive member of this dreadlock community and if you were to meet me would see that i am not ajudgmentalperson, i try to be present in any situation of life and see it for what it really is, though we all have our slips of bad character, everyday i meditate andemitpositive energy withingeverydecision i make hoping tosuppressmy ego, unfortunately the post you have read above did not reflect these things, i hope in the future you will not let things like this hinder your view on myself or "white lockers" everywhere. many of us are educated, and im sorry you think otherwise but maybe youshouldtry to change your point of view,after allthis site is about natural lockers everywhere coming together and helpingeach otherin a peaceful internetcommunity i do not feel your behaviors and slanderous remarks on people of the white race (including myself) who chose to have dreadlocks was peaceful or helpful to me or anyone else, you could have nicely asked me to look at it another way. i do not like what you have said but i will not let that comment shape my view of you as a person or people of the same race as you. you should try to do the same from now on because like i said,everyone'sego slips up now and again and sometimes could use a good checking, but nicely, hats how peace is made. i hope this did not ruin your day and you can continue on with your journey peacefully, namaste.
