Is it really that bad to go to a quick-y place? I've always had my mother cut my hair, but she's in Florida and I need a haircut. I haven't paid for a haircut in ten years, so I don't really know what the protocol is. Help! Do I need to spend a hundred bucks for a trim?!?!

They really aren't that bad. We used to go to them all the time.....especially if you're only getting a trim. I wouldn't go for a perm, though.

My hubby used to be a body builder when we were dating....hubba hubba. The muscles in his thighs and butt were so big he couldn't get pants to fit......had to wear polyester. Pants weren't made 'loose fit' back then.

'Morning, Gang!

Ah, bargain haircuts. .... .. . ....I go all the time to First Choice (are they in the States? Not sure).. . ......where they charge fourteen bucks for a cut. With tip it's over sixteen, and I go frequently for trims, so I don't even think the price is really cheap, particularly for DH who hasn't much hair left, or The Ripper, whose trim takes ten minutes. I cannot imagine spending sixty, seventy bucks for a cut, as friends do - - nutty!

I've found one woman who is very good there, and I just go to her.

I really do wonder why she works there, and not at a trendy boutique/spa where she would make four times the money. Perhaps she is a great stylist, but stupid. Hell, that would be okay - - she's trimming my hair, not marking my doctoral thesis... . .. . .... :lol:

Group babysitting--interesting.....but who's gonna be in charge of the spankings if he's naughty :o

Sorry Em

(((((Hands over ears)))))) LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA. .. .. . ...Can't hear you!!!! :lol:

Thank GAWD for spandex. . .........crap, I've entered middle age JUST at the right time.. . . . .....

Yes!!!! This is exactly why I never work out lift weights became a body builder . . . I refuse to wear polyester!!

Wow, all of the worst of the worst must all move down here. My kids and I have been butchered so many times at various quicky places around town, I won't ever do it again. You end up spending twice as much paying someone else to fix it. I take Max to a barber and they charge 12$, My stylist charges me 25$ for Maddie, which is worth it since her hair is long, thick and curly. And I pay 50... But she's soooo worth it!!! And it's only about every 4 months.... :rolleyes:

Here's my nephew :)

Whoa, and giggle. Don't know why it made me giggle :P

This is my nephew ;)

Aw...thanks for the song Karen. Actually, this used to be one of my faves. Brings back VERY happy memories of sitting in a diner with my Auntie Ann, my mom and my sister drinking orange freezes. I ALWAYS picked this song on the little jukebox in our booth :wub: :wub:

Hmmm....we needs to build us an ark here- it has been raining all month. The major river that runs from Boston into the suburbs hasn't risen this high since 2 hurricanes back in the 1950's! Crazy!

I got nutting! Geoss- I LOVE that song. Cheesy 70's songs=gooooodddd. Bring on the Barry White!

You're old enough some people say

To read the signs and walk away.

It's only time that heals the pain

And makes the sun come out again... . . .......

      Wow, the system is crazy isn’t it? Maybe switch Doctors if you can. It’s surprising from what you’ve written it seems obvious it’s celiac disease. The “potential” diagnosis means celiac is developing and it basically just hasn’t done enough gut damage to be captured on the biopsy yet, and meet that “criteria” to satisfy the current system! Given the overwhelming evidence already - family history, positive ttg and ema. And your own experience and intuition which counts far more. And the labs being reproduced after gluten elimination and reintroduction- elimination and reintroduction diet is the gold standard too. Shame on the Doc and the system. What was the Marsh score? I’m guessing not 0 if it’s potential celiac. Meaning the autoimmune process has been triggered and started. Your daughter is obviously very healthy and her immune system is putting up a good fight. It can take years for the gut damage to build to a point where there’s overt symptoms and then a conclusive diagnosis, hence why many celiacs receive diagnosis later in life. You can prevent it. See the positive and the gift in that. Hopefully the gluten challenge confirms it, but if it doesn’t maybe get a second opinion?

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!

      Have you tried a genetic test to look for Celiac genes?  No gluten challenge required.
