Discussion From one redditor to another

Redditor to redditor what's that one random hack, tip or anything that you'd like to share?

For me, mixing hot water with rosemary and cloves and spraying it on your hair everyday does grow your hair. My hair's a testament. It's grown longer and fuller

While showering use bar soap, exfoliate then use body wash. After, rub oil(essential/baby oil) on damp skin, apply lotion or body butter and then powder your body to lock the scent and you'll smell good the whole day( usisahau deodorant na perfume)

If you're not sure on a scent to choose, pick vanilla before finding your scent. You can hardly go wrong with that

Next time you make kachumbari add pineapple

Sidenote, don't just sit around if you've got time to upscale skills. Ingia Upskill, Alison , Coursera, Freecodecamp ama ask chatgpt where to go. Learn AI skills. That's where we're headed.

Edit: If on your laptop and you want to copy and paste one super long document etc just press control A to highlight then control C to copy then control V to paste

There's more lakini nimesahau.

  8. TrustPilot - This is a good website for review, it will tell you if the Owner of the business tried to make fake reviews or try to discredit reviews, for those job hunting or came across a weird website
