my hair is starting to recede on the sides and it’s genetic so none of those hair growth oils have worked. has anyone here gotten a hair transplant that was successful, if so who do you recommend?

Hello ladies. I have high density with fine strands coily hair and given, detangling is a night mare. I use the African Pride pre shampoo and it's a holy grail but I was thinking about brushes or combs. I see the American market talking of the Denman d38 brush, Felicia Leatherwood brush and the Unbrush. My question is, what do you use to detangle? and can the ol' afro comb work just as fine?

I have no idea what’s happening in these streets but as an lady in her late 30’s I am literally in awe of the number of men 24 and up who are hitting on me! The younger side is what’s surprising. Not what I expecting. Always dated older so it’s a bit of a mind f*** to have interest from both ends of the age spectrum. These young dudes are very forward about their intentions. I’m just here for validation that this isn’t only happening to me cause it caught me off guard.

I’m actually here for validation that this isn’t only happening to me.

From the time I was in primary school I’ve always been attracted to taller guys. I specifically remember this one guy who was in Laser Hill and had come to play basketball in my hometown. Everyday for the week they were there he would always wait for me right by the school bus(it was on your way from the gate to class) just to say hi. Its been more than 15 years I still remember the fist bumps🥹 and how excited he always looked when he saw me. Am I being delusional if I say I miss that moment?

Im a man and i met a guy in Everett, Washington and he was telling me how he dated a girl from Kenya. Na vile alimuonyesha dust.

The girl used to ask for money. And even yhe relatives used to message mzungu to demand for money.

Ni kama mnapeleka dust international.

But alisema madame wa kenya ni warembo sana

I really laughed for this man , especially the way he was narrating it.

I (36F)have a comfortable job and I try to take care of how I look etc. in terms of my demeanor people have said I'm motherly I suppose referencing that I care about other people's needs. I don't think I bring this vibe to the men I pick to date but tell me why,after weeks of knowing a man suddenly he'll ask me for money to sort his problems. I came from a financially abusive relationship and I am actively looking to break the cycle,so it's such a turn off and disappointment to me when a guy does this. It also makes me wonder if I'm less feminine than I should be,coz bruh!

He centered himself around my life for so long I don’t know how to move on. We did everything together and now he left me and started doing what he did with me with someone else. It’s been more than a month and I’ve found it so difficult to move on. I’ve been on a journey of self destruction instead of healing and it’s taking a toll on me. My mental health is in the pits and I’m left here trying to find myself. I hate him so much and I can’t believe I let it get this far!!

I just fought with my mom and it's funny because what caused it is my brother wanting cake. My mom says ati I caused him to want the cake and I ask her what do you mean I caused a small child with a sweet tooth to want cake. And she starts talking about how I'm always talking back at her whenever she tells me to do something and I tell her it's because you never divide work equally between my siblings and I so I'm always feeling oppressed. I'm 20f and I have an older brother and a younger sister of 2 years difference.Because let's say like today my sister didnt go to church and they don't even question her. Mimi nilikosanga Sunday moja nikaambiwa nihame kama sidai kuenda church tena. Mind you she asks her to wash rice and then later on ananiambia I peel the potatoes and I'm like tell my sister to do it since ameshinda home doing nothing juu mimi nimetoka church na nikaosha vyombo. And also ever since I stopped working that is beginning of the year she's just been complaining about me staying at home and I've never heard her complain about the rest staying at home. So anytime she leaves she makes sure to assign me task I never heard her assign to my other siblings. So si automatically I ask her " kwa nini hukuwa unambia nani afanye hivyo". And so she finally tells me " mimi usiwai nijibu tena na sitawai kuambia ufanye kitu tena, juu uko disrespectful sana".And I finish by saying " si ati nakujibu, mimi najiongelelea. Na kwenye kujiongelelea ni kuwa Disrespectful." I have also told her that me telling her anything is just me saying my opinion. Sikuangi na ubaya nikisema anything. Anyways if I'm disrespectful si then I'm sorry. Probably nobody will ever read this but I needed to let it out and also since it's long.

Natafuta raw materials ya kutengeneza sabuni. Naishi mombasa pls yeyote anayejua pahali pa kununua aniambie. I should be able to source the ingredients within Mombasa. Thank you.

Hello ladies. What's the best place to buy good quality shoes on a 6k budget.

Greetings good people of Redditastan. Late last year we set out to create an ample community of redditors with the goal of socialisation and networking and came up with a fantastic idea of holding a food festival dubbed Chaparty Fest which happened in October and was such a great success. Got to meet some amazing souls from on here and the interactions were wholesome. Since then the members of the community aimed for it to become a social space and it morphed into UnWind-which is literally a place for redditors to unwind through hangouts, events & festivals. Our latest one is a hike scheduled on the 2nd Feb to Kahunira falls in Kiambu and tickets go for only Ksh 500. For those who would like to join for the adventure,thrill, fun, vibes and beautiful memories you're welcome on board. All inquiries, clarifications or suggestions are appreciated. Continue having yourselves an amazing time✨️💕

Hello girls. Looking for sweet smelling perfume suggestions (zile za kupima. I don't like musky scents. Subtle cool scents that you only get a hint when you stand close to someone). Or ata kama si za refill but within budget ya like 3-5k. Thank you 🙏🏾

Hi Ladies,

What are your takes on the increase in femicide cases? How can we stay vigilant?

Someone I knew went missing a few weeks ago. Her dismembered body was found a few days later. I can’t stop thinking about this. It’s getting really scary.

I have this friend who's going through some shit in her relationship and asked me for advice but I genuinely don't know how to help her. I suggested we ask reddit ladies so following is a message she's allowed me to share here.

"...He acknowledges that he's been a piece of shit and he's working on changing.

However, he's really condescending and behaves like he's here to save me. Says he loves me but he loses his temper whenever I bring questions like "what are we" or "where is this going". He's not trying to marry me anytime soon even though his wife and kid aren't even here." (Context: my friend, the guy and his wife are Zulu so polygamy is accepted)

"When I say lose his temper, I mean he lectures me for hours where he says I'm bugging him by sharing my thoughts or feelings. And that he doesn't really care about what I'm saying so I should just stop triggering/annoying him.

He nitpicks my words and makes me doubt everything I've worked on to get here. I'm becoming numb to him but I unfortunately love him so part of me feels like holding on until he changes..."

What would you advice this babe to do? I told her to stop being desperate because I think the fact that she's 37 and unmarried is a big part of why she's with this dude anyway but she insists she genuinely loves him and believes he loves her.

Hi, so there's this place that I stumbled upon. It has great US based nail products.

I'm talking dips,gel,manicure sets, shower gels,scrubs, scented candles, just everything.

Yes it may be a bit pricey but are the products worth it.

Like it would be the perfect place to go shop for your friend, mum or sister.

So underrated honestly. It's along ngong road. So run guys. Great stuff if you looking for quality.

Sorry about that so the place is at Applewood Adams, 13th floor. It's called Harmony Gelish Kenya

Hey everyone,I am reaching out to anyone mwenye anajua ama mwenye ako na open position for teaching practice for English/Literature for either primary school or secondary school. My friend is looking for one and if anyone can help please reach out thank you for your time.

Has anyone successfully sued a baby daddy and actually gotten child support . What process did you use ? Asking for a friend.

Why do exes always feel the need to pop up in your life? I never speak to my exes, and I mean never. I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a single ex I’d allow back into my space. Not even close. Sure, I could entertain them if I wanted to, but for what? When I go no contact, it’s forever.

Anyway, an ex from nine years ago keeps texting me randomly. For what reason? I have no idea because I never respond. Yesterday, he texted me the date. I was confused, like, who is this unsaved number reminding me what day it is? Then I saw his picture. I read the message, deleted the chat, and moved on. (We used to celebrate our anniversary on the 19th.)

Some people just don’t know how to let go, but honestly, I’m out here protecting my peace and not looking back. Anyways, I hope you are having a great morning & happy new week ladies ✨

So, I recently got out of this toxic relationship I had for the better part of last year and I’m feeling very liberated . I’m partly to blame because despite the red flags I still stayed, with the biggest 🚩 being gaslit all the time. One time I had a yeast infection and when I wanted to go get medication and possibly see a gynecologist since I have an IUCD , I was told “my girlfriend shouldn’t go to one because I heard that they do crazy things to women”. You know I’ve just been wondering who even feeds these men with such nonsense ! Then another time I was on my periods and I am not one to have sex when I’m 🩸, just tell me why in between having sore boobs and cramps this guy still wanted to get some, when I refused he kept telling me I don’t love him. Anyway baby girl, I hope you love yourself enough to choose a man who is patient with you, a man who respects both your body and his body, a man who has self control, a man who is kind to your soul and most important a man who can articulate themselves well. I can’t stress enough on this

The patch, pills, IUDs ( both types), condoms, injection are temporary contraceptives, that is they are meant to work for a while until they fail. Some do earlier than expected. So if can use other combined methods you can reduce the possibility of getting pregnant.

Its possible to get pregnant with an IUD, on the pill, the patch, condom etc. The only 100% permanent contraceptive is getting a hysterectomy or bisalp. Perhaps abstain as the first resort to the others if possible.

Another thing, P2 and other emergency pills when taken within 12 hours have 85% chance of preventing pregnancy by delaying ovulation. However, this percentage falls to 0% after ovulation has occured. You will get pregnant despite taking the e-pill.

So dont get comfortable yet. Your partner should be willing to condomize or use other male contraceptives alongside your own to improve your chances of not getting pregnant.

Put yourself first. Have a great weekday!

Hey girls. So I've created a WhatsApp group for girls who are happy to know and interact with each other and form friendships from there. We are planning a meet up next weekend, in Nairobi. Feel free to dm me to join the discussion through the week. Looking forward to seeing you there 🤗🫶🏾

Hey Ladies! Do you have any leads to your official pants plug in either bus station or Adams Arcade/ Toi Market? I would appreciate 😊

Hey Ladies, I’ve been loving this group and am curious where everyone is at? Perhaps with the possibility of connecting and making friends. I’ll start. I’m near Nyahururu.

Have you ever stepped out alone to an event, like a concert, movie, or even just a coffee shop, and realized how liberating it was? The whole experience of enjoying life without waiting for others can be empowering.

Some benefits of going solo:

1. You might find opportunities you wouldn't have noticed if you were distracted.

2. Sunlight and fresh air do wonders for your mood and energy.

3. Being outside can help fight off feelings of anxiety or depression.

4. You’ll experience more genuine, spontaneous connections with people you meet in real life.

5. It teaches independence and self-reliance, and opens up possibilities you might have missed.

Is there anything you've experienced on your own that you wouldn't have had if you waited for someone else to join you? How do you feel about solo adventures?
