I got a little card from the woman who did mine that explains:
Day 1: OMG I'm in love with my Everlasting Brows!
Days 2-4: I don't like this color, it's too dark.
Days 5-7: My brows are flaking.
Days 8-10: My brows are gone!
Days 14-28: Thank you, my Everlasting brows are coming back!

It's a tattoo, all tattoos do that. The next step is the gross slimey peel off of the top layer, and it will look fine after that 😂

@ Attorney 3- I have very blonde hair on my head and so the darkness is just a lot for me. It’s probably less dramatic for brunettes. I’m on day 3 and still pretty dark, apparently the next phase is scabbing/flaking which is around day 5

I’m going next week!! I already know there will be lots of panicking during the healing process.

This is not law-related and I’m sorry but could use advice! I am 27 and have been single since I was 22 which makes me feel weird, especially because my longest relationship didn’t last a year.

I don’t want to write off dating, but am terrified! Is my situation super weird? Any advice? 😭

I’m currently a junior associate in a boutique litigation firm handling IP. I’ve taken a depo already, will argue in court next month and by all accounts, I am great at it. But I’m miserable. I find the games with opposing counsel exhausting and I despise writing briefs (even if I’m good at it). My pre-law school job was in public relations and I chose litigation because I like to win, but I’m now realizing I like success more than the win-lose. Feeling lost… should I move to transactional?

Recalling my first onboarding meeting in-house with the c - suite. Thinking back now recalling that they would often mention if someone they are referring to is a woman. For example, "Oh we have these two women doing x, y, and z and they do it well, a well-oiled machine." etc. I was the only woman in the room. They did not mention when someone performing a particular role was a man but they did point out when it's a woman, happened about four times. Odd, no? What would you make of this?

I quit. I was respectful. Thankfully, every person I have told has been so nice, and I wasn't immediately bounced out by my leadership (which has happened), but I have been surprised by my own bittersweet tears. If they actually cared, why didn't they say so sooner? I gave so much, and I was consumed by this organization. I invested in them, but my investment and dedication were not reciprocated, which is why I ever even entertained leaving. I don't know why it hurts, but it really, really does.
