Ice cream in glen burnie

My hair is just refusing to cooperate. It has like three different textures. It's a very weak 2a, almost straight in the front and in the back it's a solid 2b with two perfectly straight hair strands. I know my hair isn't straight because it poofs up when I brush it while dry.
When I try to focus on my waves, my hair acts like straight hair, but when I treat it like straight hair it acts like wavy hair and it just looks terrible in both of these cases.
My hair specifics
Dyed? Yes, dark plum brown. Texture: Fine Density: Thick Curl type/pattern: Idek anymore, but I guess 2a/2b, with one or two perfectly straight strands in the back Porosity: Naturally low porosity, but maybe a bit higher now that it's dyed Scalp: Greasy
My current hair routine Disclaimer: I have just started this routine so it might take some time for any results to actually show, so my problems might be solved in a month or so. However, I highly doubt it, since my main focus when picking out those products was the fact that I just freshly dyed my hair, but I also needed something to combat my greasy scalp while not disturbing the dye too much.
- In the shower, I use the whole Ecotherapy Revive series by Maria Nila in the recommended order. So far, I noticed that it has made my hair slightly softer.

1. Shampoo
2. Masque (10 mins)
3. Conditioner (3-5 mins)

- After I get out of the shower I use a non-drying styling mouse (my friend whose curls last a long time recommended it to me) and scrunch it in my hair while it's still wet. After that I airdry my hair, since that has given me the most decent results so far. I now wear a bonnet to sleep and it's majorly helping with frizz. Absolute game changer.
What I have tried and didn't work - Finger curling - Curl creams - Making curls with my hairbrush - Diffusing my hair, hence why I airdry it now - The bowl method
Other stuff - Right now I wash my hair once a week, but considering that my shampoo is sulfate free and my hair gets greasy around day 3-4, I am thinking of washing my hair twice a week instead (no more than that, though, because I am lazy). That will most likely ruin my hair dye quicker, but I don't plan on maintaining it and I want to go back to my natural hair color at some point. - One method for waves that I actually do like is braiding my hair and sleeping with the braids. But it kind of feels like cheating and it also only lasts for a day, and I would want something that lasts longer. - I don't know if age matters when it comes to my hair, but in case it does, I am 17.

If you have read all of this and still think that my hair isn't hopeless, please tell me what I should do with it. Let me know if I missed any important details as well.

It's been a few years since I was professionally diagnosed with rosacea, and since then I've self-experimented with a variety of methods to improve my condition.
The original dermatologist recommended me Rosiced, a cream that worked very well for me, and I started to observe results within a week. That kept it relatively under control for some time.
I moved countries (Germany → Spain) and came to see a different dermatologist because I eventually ran out of Rosiced and the rosacea was reappearing. Not only that, but I also developed a tiny sebaceous cyst, which at this point can only be removed through surgery but it doesn't bother me.
It took a long time to get an appointment, so in the meantime I decided to experiment with attending an aesthetic center, and I get a facial clean up every month or so, plus they educated me on establishing a skincare routine that I apply morning and night. Essentially, cleaning up and hydrating.
I finally managed to see a dermatologist, and she recommended me to apply a fusidic acid based cream for a week on the lump, and a doxycycline antibiotic treatment for 8-12 weeks, which appears to be a standard treatment these days for rosacea.
My skin is certainly in "better" condition, compared to a few months ago. It's softer, more hydrated, and closer in skin tone to the rest of my body. However, I do still experience notable ups and downs with the rosacea itself. I'm 3 weeks of antibiotic away from finishing the treatment, and I maintain a lifestyle that should favor proper skin health (i.e. exercise, clean diet, meditation, hygiene...).
So far, I've learned that:

• Having an adequate skincare hygiene routine is essential
• Fusidic acid didn't work for me to get rid of the lump, might consider surgery in near future
• Rosiced cream was most effective to reduce redness
• Gradually improving your lifestyle through healthier lifestyle choices obviously plays a massive role in how my skin feels, regardless of any treatment. This includes things like doing regular exercise, eating a healthy diet (rich in fiber, essentially), working on mental fitness to avoid stress, getting plenty of sleep, and drinking plenty of water.

From here, I'll plan to continue the antibiotic treatment (3 weeks remaining), my daily skincare hygiene routine, and the other lifestyle habits that contribute positively.
None of this is by any means dogma, but simply a series of learnings from direct experience and self-experimentation applied within my own lifestyle, from my own personal journey aiming to improve my condition. I share with the hope that any of it inspires others within their own journey for self improvement.
If you're going or have gone through a similar experience or any of this resonated with you, would love to hear your perspective.
In spirit of transparency, this is how my facial skin usually looks like now. I'll share new learnings as they come. Peace.

When it comes to cooking oils, there are countless options available in the market. However, two of the most popular choices are avocado oil and olive oil. Both oils have their own distinct flavor and nutritional profiles, but which one is healthier? In this blog, we will explore the differences between avocado oil and olive oil to help you make an informed decision.

Avocado Oil

Avocado oil is extracted from the fruit of the avocado tree. It is a relatively new oil in the market but has gained popularity due to its health benefits. Avocado oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, which are known to reduce bad cholesterol levels in the body. Additionally, it is a good source of vitamin E, which is an antioxidant that protects the body from free radicals.
One of the key advantages of avocado oil is its high smoke point. This makes it a great choice for high-heat cooking methods such as frying and grilling. Avocado oil also has a mild, buttery flavor that pairs well with a variety of dishes.

Olive Oil

Olive oil is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and has been used for centuries for its health benefits. It is extracted from the fruit of the olive tree and is known for its rich flavor and high nutritional value. Olive oil is a good source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which are known to improve heart health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
Olive oil is also rich in antioxidants, such as polyphenols and vitamin E. These compounds have anti-inflammatory properties and protect the body from free radicals.
However, olive oil has a lower smoke point than avocado oil. This makes it unsuitable for high-heat cooking methods such as frying. Instead, it is best used in dressings, dips, and as a finishing oil on cooked dishes.

Avocado Oil vs Olive Oil: Which is Healthier for You?

Both avocado oil and olive oil have their own unique benefits, but which one is healthier for you? The answer ultimately depends on your individual needs and preferences.
If you are looking for an oil that can withstand high heat, then avocado oil is the way to go. Its high smoke point makes it a great choice for frying and grilling. Additionally, its mild flavor and nutritional profile make it a healthy option.
On the other hand, if you are looking for an oil that is rich in antioxidants and has a distinct flavor, then olive oil is the better choice. While it may not be suitable for high-heat cooking, it is a great option for dressings and dips.
Overall, both avocado oil and olive oil are healthy choices when used in moderation. The key is to choose an oil that works best for your cooking needs and taste preferences.
