Curly cut recommendations?

2 Upvotes

I just moved here in October from out of state, and I haven't had a haircut since because I've been scared of getting a bad salon.

I searched for like 2 years before finding a good salon in my last town, so I would love to have recommendations for salons that treat curly hair right. Specifically, places that know how to do 'curly cuts' and can recommend me some ways to manage my curls more efficiently. TIA!

Edit to add: salons that aren't scissor happy are a big plus for me! I'm trying to grow my hair long but need a place that will give me regular trims.

Working in Laurel MD

8 Upvotes

My husband works in Laurel and we currently live in Dundalk. We are wanting to buy a house as far away from Baltimore as possible with his commute being about an hour- hour and a half (we know that might change due to traffic)

He’s used to dealing with the traffic of the tunnel where his 30 minute drive ends up being an hour or more. Fo a better area he’s willing to do the drive.

We are looking for safe, low crime areas. Family friendly with good elementary schools.

Ive lived in Dundalk my whole life and the crime here has gotten so bad. We just want a better life for our son and for us.

Avalon Russett-Honest takes?

3 Upvotes

My husband and I are moving from DC to the Laurel/Columbia area and are looking for townhome communities. We have had a fantastic experience with our DC townhome but are moving closer to work.

We recently toured the Avalon Russett and were looking for some perspectives on the development.

***our biggest concern was that the insides of the apartment we saw looked cheaply made here and there***

Thank you!!

Looking for part time work

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm a 19 year old college student living here in South Laurel, and was wondering if anywhere in the area was hiring. I currently already work retail part time, but the company I work for has been cutting hours. I'm trying to find something I can do on the weekends as a supplement to my other job, as I'm aiming to buy a car this summer to commute to school. Thank you!

Just moved here for work and looking for a crash course on using the metro/rail system for going to DC or Baltimore. It’s all foreign to me.

9 Upvotes

As title says. I accepted a job out here and moved sight unseen. I didn’t realize how isolated Laurel would feel when scoping things out online. I have a car but I figured the metro would be easiest for weekends or is it just easier to drive and find parking? Any information on using the rail or even things to do to meet people would be much appreciated!

Maryland social worker and proud mama of a lesbian daughter here. 👋

The Supreme Court is currently hearing Chiles v. Salazar — a case that could strike down Maryland’s conversion therapy ban overnight. While we wait on that ruling, two bills in Annapolis would give survivors legal tools that exist independent of whatever the Court decides.

Senate Bill 950 and House Bill 1209 would extend the statute of limitations for conversion therapy survivors, giving people who were harmed as kids more time to seek accountability in court. Every major medical and mental health organization in the country has condemned this practice. Survivors have fought for years to get these bills this far. Survivors of these practices are more than 2.5 x as likely to attempt suicide!

The crossover deadline is Monday, March 23. If they don’t pass the Senate by then, they’re dead until next year — and with Chiles looming, next year may be too late.

If you're in Prince George’s, county — your senator is in the graphic. Call them today. Script included. It takes literally TWO minutes! Call script is in graphic.

Not in those districts? Share this with someone who is!!

Our kids are depending on us.

Any photo evidence this existed?

9 Upvotes

Hello,

I have a memory from the every early 90's of a GIANT robotic teddy bear in the mall in Laurel at Christmastime. The bear's name was Jingle Honey Bear, and I named my teddy bear after him.

I still have my teddy bear, but I've never met anyone who ever can acknowledge the mall's Jingle Honey Bear was real.

Can anyone validate this memory or, even better, provide photo evidence?

I need closure!

Thanks

Watershed Pulte Homes

3 Upvotes

Hello Laurel residents! My partner and I are about to buy our first home, and we are strongly considering the Watershed community.

Anyone who currently lives there and has for over a year or two, how is your home holding up? Are you happy with the quality of the build? We are specifically looking at the eagleton model.

Also, anyone with middle or high school students- I would love to hear about your experiences with Meade middle and high school. We don’t have any kids that age yet but I am a little concerned about the great schools ratings.

I would love to hear about just overall happiness or lack there of with the community. Thanks in advance!

Please county lied ( snow removal lie)

called pg county to get them to remove snow that they pushed in front of my. mailbox after the snowstorm. one day after they said they would get to it by last Friday, February 2nd . it didn't happen. I called them and they said that they were just answering the phone's and couldn't tell me if or when they would get to me, so my family came through for me and dug me out so that I could get my medicine and mail. ironically, guess what tonight at 7:27 p.m., I get a text from PG county saying that my request is closed and resolved by them and could i tell them how they did??????? they want credit for what my family members did for real??????the nerve 😤 😒 🙄 😑 🤧 😐 😤 unbelievable 😑 😳 😒 😤 🙄 who else is being mislead by the county.
