I haven't posted here in a while. I was reminded of AMHD on another site today. I voted that some products are safe. IMO, a line should be drawn between people using items like sunblock, peels, &...

Co-signing on the wonderfulness of retin-a.. I'm so in love with this stuff now.
I only have the .05%(I was rec'd to start there since my skin was already used to peeling from acids).. I might...

Thanks nikki! What's in the tca complex?

Nikki where do you apply the 12.5%? What's the aftercare & healing like for you?
My arms felt totally torched from the 20%.

Maybe an Indian or Filipino doc might be less judgmental than an African American?
Eta: Have you tried the HQ & Retin-A regimen yet?

I've been reading good things about lactic! I'm finding the TCA 20% a bit scary. I don't have the guts to apply it anywhere that I can't cover with clothes. I put some on my outer arms the other day...

Probably not a popular answer but honestly none.
I'd like to just be one or two(at most) colors all over after correcting my melasma and sun damage. My situation at the start of this:

I'm sorry, I'm in grouchy old lady mode tonight.:o
yeah, 'gassed up' is an old school expression for a guy straightening or just pomading his hair.
I said the same about Tom Hanks in the...

Eek, it would have been nice if he'd stopped in the caramel zone.
This is so hard to understand for me.

Hammercy, I don't want to know what he used. Let me shut up.

Maybe you'd have better luck with a brown doctor? I'm not sure where you are but the minority associations sometimes have professional directories.
Another choice would be a spa that specializes...

**(hugs)** yes, I agree w gg... please keep with the sunblock, exfoliation and restoring the health of your skin. Is it possible for you to see a dermadoc or aesthetician?
-
I agree with GG, please try the peels first.. check out this woman's post below..
The peels & retin-a have made her very pale.

So true, there are some cool Youtube ladies that have proven this... some are natural, some relaxed etc. all with awesome heads of hair.

I think it would help. I get the privacy issues but OTOH everything is so anecdotal and like "my mother's second cousin's shoemaker used this and he's a ghost now!"...

I wouldn't dare ask anyone except maybe my children, husband, someone very close what was up with their skin.

Really 1,6,13, and 16 are like from the era that I first realized that there was such a thing as weaves for women (I'd seen a thing on TV about male hair replacement weaves & rugs, plugs, grafts...

Are there any sites where I can see actual photos of people who have bleached beyond their G-d given color?
I've seen melasma, sun damage & permatan, acne marks, hyperpigmentation etc. reversed...

She's hawt in that afro picture! I think that's her look. Lol!

LOL! I used to for always being cold but with these umm flaky renovations, there's another reason for extra sleevage! I was looking at the Tall long-sleeved shirts on the Old Navy site and I'm...

I do hate this 'thriller' phase. I'm peeling like crazy, esp my hands. I've been wearing sleeves and pulling them down past my wrists like the kids do. Lol!
Also looking at these :D really

Me too! You don't owe him an explanation... he's not your dermatologist... "peels" or "nunya" should suffice

I've been working on darkness on my sun-exposed areas too. It can come from melasma, uneven tanning or a combination of both.
I've found a ton of info here and excellent help at the SkinCareTalk...

I have some D & R eyecream somewhere but it didn't seem to help my circles, so I quit.

That's crazy about the "good hair" comment on Girlfriends! I wasn't a regular viewer so I missed that gem. Unreal.:mad: On a pos. note, I thought that JMJ was the prettiest actress on the show too. ...

My theory is that the One Drop Rule(In the US, everyone with any known African ancestry was put into the Black group, AFAIU.) is partly to blame.
If you're throwing in everyone with any degree of...

I feel you. I've had people (only online for some reason) say I'm not from my family because of my hair texture and coloring. Also I've gotten 'too black', 'too dark' to be what I am... as if their...

The next time he visited I would layer myself in MAC NC155 just for spite and slap him with a rubber glove... followed by a nice swift kick with my Doc Martens.

I'm not an expert GG but that sched. Sounds pretty good to me.
I have back-burnered my Cristalline glycerine until my arms are where I want them. I was afraid it would slow the process. So my...

50% GLY is no joke for me... maybe try it on your knees or elbows (if they're rough like min.. lol) only first.. . just to get a feel for it.
Then do a very small test patch first on any other...

My SpideySense says it's probably simply the sun exposure... I've been close to his color a few times BUT I'm not a doctor so I just don't know. I'm trying to err on the side of safety.:o

What I was saying though is that he should go for advice and to make sure that it isn't internal.. since it was a change from lighter to darker.
Sometimes kidney and liver problems can change a...

I wouldn't use anything bleaching during pregnancy. Just sunscreen, hats, shade-seeking & exfoliating lotions maybe. I'd double-check any products w/ my ob-gyn or derm dr.
