    i’m proud of you for giving the natural/dark hair a decent try!! you can always try it another time in the future if you want.
    I love both but it’s important that you feel best/ yourself so i’m excited to see the lighter hair come back too!!

    Girl I feel you on the health insurance. Not the same but every single time I have to call them it’s the biggest run around and a million calls before we can just all agree to how I thought it should be in the beginning. Wishing you the best of luck always❤

    • @MarySkinner
      @MarySkinner  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you 🤎 I’m positive that if I can just get the right person on the phone, they’ll say, “yep that doesn’t make sense!” and fix it for me. just have to keep calling them until that happens 😭

    Seeing this episode now, while it was an absolute shit thing to deal with at the time, I think it was the universe telling you "hey this thing is happening soon". I love your vulnerability. The way you talk about things is so raw and I love that about your content.

    I completely feel the same way as you about my hair. I just went back to a dark brown and I'm just not living for it. Like I think you look good with dark hair but at the same time I completely understand how you feel.

    I used the Aveda Botanical Repair hair mask after I bleached my whole head and I swear it SAVED my hair! It's expensive but I swear by it. I used it 1-2x/week in place of my conditioner.

      @@MarySkinner you're not supposed to :( I'm also a tangly girl and I just make sure my hair is brushed out super well before I get in the shower, try not to make a mess of my hair while I shampoo, and the leave-in conditioner at least takes care of the tangling afterward

    i had so many issues with marketplace in my state and would HIGHLY recommend searching for a health insurance nonprofit in your area! the one near me was so helpful and was able to make way more progress than i was by emailing on my behalf ❣️ wishing you the best

    Mary, I get that you *feel the need* to apologize for the rant and post a little clip before and after. But please know that we (at least I) understand how important health insurance is!
    I'm not American, so I'll never understand how your system works. If we can even say it works at all... Anyways. Health insurance is so so important, especially for people with needs (medication, therapy, etc.). So please know that it is SO valid for you to be upset/ stressed/ etc about this!! No need to apologize ♥
    And I'm so sorry that you, and anyone, has to deal with this 🥺

    • @MarySkinner

      usually I use my canon g7x mark iii to vlog, but I also use my canon r6 sometimes. My ig photos are a mix of those two cameras and iPhone pics

    I once scream cried on the phone with our insurance provider. I was pregnant. It was extremely high risk. And they randomly dropped me from coverage at 7 months pregnant. I see you. I’m so sorry. It’s so fucking stressful and not fair.
    Edit To add: this was ALSO through marketplace and they were ALSO claiming they had not application for that upcoming month. Literally same thing.

    I know you self tan, but it’s not the same as summer color and you always feel pale and ugly in the wintertime when you have dark hair lol. I think you should stick it out through the summer and see if you feel differently!!!

    Due to my medication I haven’t been able to drink alcohol in a year. I truly think one month of going dry is just sad :( I know people can do better! Alcohol is not good for you 😢. I hate the stigma about being social = alcohol. Nonetheless, thank you for being open about it I love your videos ❤

      Thank you!! talking about alcohol almost feels taboo, whether you drink or not, and I just hope people start to feel more comfortable sharing their own individual journeys 🤎 whatever they may be!
