Fishin' in the stream of consciousness (all-purpose, no topic chat thread)

I've washed my hair in both the bathroom and kitchen sinks before and I have fairly long hair so the laundry sink isn't that much of a stretch ime

 

I don't think washing hair in the sink is too bad a thing, Full Showers aren't always feasible.

I would really like to know what a laundry sink is though

 

It's the sink in a big laundry room that's (ime) mostly used for pretreating stained clothes

 

idk about normal but it seems sensible. I use the detachable showerhead in my bathroom for washing my hair when it gets Ew and no spoons (and for rinsing off hair post-shaving the undercut, bc there's nothing worse than the feeling of the hair you just shaved off sticking to your neck)

 

the 3 places ive lived have had variations on The Big Plastic Boy but you can probably get nicer ones

Spoiler: img

Or this guy i guess would look nicer

The takeaway is its big enough u can shove your whole head under the tap and not get water on the floor but it probably will hurt your back after a while

 

I often wet my hair in the sink when I style it in the mornings bc I tend to bathe in the evening, so that doesn’t strike me as weird!

 

It's perfectly acceptable, don't worry about it :^)

 

I am amazed at hair that can be wetted and not remain wet the entire day after.

 

Oh, it very much does stay super wet if I don’t put product in it...thick hair problems yo

 

I had this same problem before my mom bought one of these suckers. Its a hairdryer, only the part the hot air comes out of is a hairbrush top:

 

Nope. My hair emphatically does not like either blowdrying or getting brushed while wet. Both result in the worlds worst tangles.

 

Oh my god I need one. Any idea what they’re called or where I might find one?

 

Oh! I forgot to warn, pretty much the only downside is the noise. Its just as loud as a regular hairdryer.

Fake edit: ours is a revlon, you can find it on amazon. Im sure theres off brand versions too that can do the same job

 

Thanks for the info!!

 

Dancing to music in your own home, agree if you agree

 

Ahh laundry sinks. very excellent. Do most of them have a pump that puts the water from the washer into that sink when it's draining as a weird middling step to getting that paticular water out of the house or was that just my childhood home's weird thing?

Also a v nostalgic sink for me because laundry sink at my arts high school dorm is where i got my hair cut short by some friends because i was Queer and Done With Long Hair. Rebellion!

 

The one at my parents house had a tube runing from the washer that would drain the water into the sink, havent seen that at my current place

 

Ours has one!

 

in Japan apparently “relative rental agencies” are a thing and this lady has been hiring an actor to play her daughter’s dad for years

I guess this is why anime is the way it is huh
