Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I have fine, thin hair I cut short. If I get sweaty I'll wash with water, but if it's greasy or oily I use rye flour mixed with water in my hair about every 5 days. It works impressively well as a "shampoo", and for being all the fancy things (sulfate free, paraben free, ph neutral, all natural etc etc) it's dirt cheap per wash. I would not recommend it for anyone with really thick or textured hair because the grains can be a damn pain to rinse out (unless your water pressure is incredible), but it's awesome if you have fine, thin hair and you're looking for a new routine. It's probably one of the weirder self care things I've discovered but it really works for me. I love my hair now.
