Is my mother being strict? and how can I convince her Im mature?

February 3rd, 2012

my curdew is currently 12 am and she refuses to lift it at all and says she can still keep it the same even when i turn 18 in two months. I am responsible and have never broken her trust and she does trust me. I rarely drink because she only allows me to drink sometimes. I said I want to get a tatoo that i can hide (like a small one on my hip) and a nose piercing and she said if I get one she is forcing me to get laser removal and she will rip the piercing out. She also told me she can control everything i do while im still living under her roof.

I love her and dont mean to whinge but I feel i should have more freedom seeing as I am responnsible and will be classed as an adult. Her treating me this way is making me really consider moving out as soon as I turn 18 because I cant deal with it anymore.

Ive talked to her about it and she wont even listen to anything I try and say she just yells and says Im being immature and need to grow up even when I am speaking respectfully to her :( She also keeps saying that i need to prove myself first but I dont know how i can do that when I always obey her rules and she already trusts me

Is there anything I can do to change her mind or shall I just move out like Im considerig

im 17 and will be 18 in two months and i mean ill get the tatoos and piercinig after i turn 18.

The 12 o clock curfew is pretty generous and the tattoo and piercing after 18 is up to You if you live in her house or not she can’t make you get laser removal and seriously.. rip it out shed go to jail.. but if your that upset about it get a place of your own when you turn 18 so you don’t have to worry about it

my mother is too over protective?

Tell her, she never gives you a chance to prove her, tell her you would like one oppertunity to prove to her you are trust worthy. show her how much of a good head you have on your shoulders, tell her how good your grades are, and that you havent done anything to make her not trust you! She needs to learn eventually she will be loosing her child, and needs to start winging off of you now, you need to have the freedom that every teenage has (as i am a teenager, (17) and can stay out till 2 A.M.) explain to her you need to learn things on your own, and the more she keeps telling you that you cant do something, will just make you want to do it more! Hope i helped

My mother seems to think that when I turn 18 in 2 months that she can still give me a curfew.?

Well the best thing to do is , ask her why.
Because tattoos aren’t actually really a good idea, just because its cool or attracting, its bad for your skin. It could cause skin cancer or something. Nose piercing is alright, that’s actually fine. Since some cultures have nose piercing and can never take it off or else they’re going against the religion.
Just because you’re turning 18 doesn’t mean you become an actual adult, you must learn how to do your own chores, my your own groceries, your own…well basically everything your mother been doing all of your life.
Another thing is, your her baby girl, meaning its really hard for her to have you leave. She wants you to stay with her.
This actually happens to many mothers/daughters relationships.
To prove yourself, try learning about cooking, chores, groceries, finding a job (a good job actually), getting into college, and study hard.

Her house, her rules. That is the bottom line. It may not seem fair, but it is reality. If you cannot deal with her rules, get your own place.

As a mother myself, I can understand your mother’s feelings. She just loves you so much and is scared to let go. Once a mother gives her daughter more freedom, she is just scared of what you will do with that freedom. It also sounds to me that she may have some personal issues, maybe she experienced things your age that she is scared you might do and she doesn’t want you to make the same mistakes.

What I don’t understand is why she can’t sit down with you and have a good talk about this. It’s not fair that she jumps on you when you try to talk to her about it.

You could try to write her a letter. This way she can read it, take the time to think about it and then maybe she would be more willing to talk about it more.

Good luck! I hope my daughters will be great like you! : )

How do u make homemade wax for body hair removal?

December 31st, 2011

I once met this Brazilian lady at a park who spoke very little English. She began to talk about making a sugar based wax for hair removal. She said to brown the sugar than add lemon juice, but that is all I understood. What i need to know is how much and how long to cook it.If you have any homemade hair removal wax recipes please give them to me.

Hair Removal
Materials:
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup water
Instructions:
Mix all together, boil until it reaches 250 degrees F. Pour into a jar. When ready to use, microwave for about 10 to 20 seconds to soften. Put it on warm, put your strip of cotton on, rub in the direction of the hair growth and yank it off (opposite of hair growth). Try not to get it on too thick (I use a Popsicle stick for an applicator). A tip for keeping the sugar at the right temperature is to use one of those small beverage warmers (like single hot plates for one cup). Just make sure the container that you put the sugar in wouldn’t melt when left sitting on it. A glass measuring cup works great.

What is tattoo ink composed of usually?

December 20th, 2011

I’m having trouble pinpointing the ingredients in the standard ink used in the tattoo industry.
Can anybody tell me if animal ingredients are used in it? & if so are there alternatives….& if so what is the difference in quality of a non animal ingredient ink to a plant/non-organic based ink?

Glycerin is. Is usually the liquid that holds the pigment in limbo until it’s tattooed into skin. Either plant or animal based. Don’t quote me, but I think my.. long haired patchouli friends are anti-every ink except Starbright (brite sp?) because it’s made of plant glycerin instead.

Finding ingredients is going to be somewhat difficult just because no one requires tattoo inks to label them. Most have metal compounds, they might not say what’s in it for sure, but contacting the ink company would be your best bet if it’s for allergy research or toxicity.

I don’t know the difference, or if there is any between either. The glycerin is only the carrier for the actual pigment, it dissapates after you’re tattooed so that only the pigment remains locked in place. The artist I go to uses Kumo Suri, that, and the Starbright are two very popular inks for quality work.

What a burgundy or brown ink cover up green tattoo ink?

December 11th, 2011

Got a tattoo on my forearm and am looking at getting it covered up fully. Looking for some colors that may work with my skin color or at the very least just cover it fully without matching my skin tone. The ink is regular black which has turned the common dark green tint, will a maroon or brownish red ink work to cover it up? Any other color suggestions? My skin is dark brown. Thanks!

A warm brown or a dark brown should cover okay, if the green isn’t too dark of a green. It might look kind of muddled.

Laser Tattoo Removal question?

December 2nd, 2011

I was just basically wanting to know more about my certain types of treatment. I am on my 4th treatment with laser surgery and it was estimated that it would be around 7-9 treatments my doctor said. My tattoos look a little faded but nothing big and I was kind of getting worried about it. My doctor takes pictures of it every time I go in so I know he is checking up on it. Basically I just want to know how it works really? When should I start noticing big differences and what happens on my last treatment?

Speak with your doctor each person, their tattoo, & removal experience is a little different. How much fading are you seeing after 3 treatments? Black ink & older tattoos of 10 years or more treat best. Color can be more challenging. The link below has general information on the subject. Good luck to you.
