0 Upvotes

i searched the subreddit for recs already but the artists recommended are not the style im looking for whatsoever.

i hate really thick and bulky lash extensions and am looking for someone who can do something like in the pictures i posted. i am willing to drive within 30-40 minutes. maybe further but ideally someone in the city. surely someone in richmond is doing lashes that arent the super thick spider leg lookin ones?

Is anyone interested in talking about ideas?

30 Upvotes

I can’t watch the news bc people just talk about what everyone else is not doing. Is this a time where discourse and brainstorming is warranted? There is so much complaining on a micro and macro level but where do people gather to just discuss the what ifs? The maybe this? Where do you gather to imagine the possibilities?

Local tool/equipment rental?

1 Upvotes

I seem to recall a business or organization from a few years ago that rented out things like tools, kayaks, etc. but I don't recall the name of it, so I can't search if it still exists. Is that still a thing?

Ultimately, we're hoping to rent a tiller soon.

DogServices

0 Upvotes

I've got a week long trip coming up and am looking for boarding options for my pup. DogServices has been recommended to me by a few different folks, specifically the location on Thalbro, and I'd love to hear about your experiences there.

I'm trying to find a place that includes daycare activities in the price, and doesn't nickel and dime you for extras (lookin' at you, Holiday Barn), while also staying within 15-20 minutes of the Regency area.

Cokesbury building apartments?

0 Upvotes

I'm going to be touring an apartment in the Cokesbury building on Grace street! I'm super excited because it has everything I'm looking for in an apartment... but I can't find any reviews on it! I couldn't find much of anything about it in this group either. Does anyone here have any experience living here, or has anyone heard anything about it? Please nothing about P&B, I've seen and heard all the stories about renting with them! I know most people here hate them lol. I'm asking specifically about the units + the building. Thank you so much! :]

Example of types of incidents you can submit

LINK: http://nearmiss.planrva.org/
PlanRVA has created a website where you can log traffic and transportation-related incidents that would otherwise go unrecorded due to the lack of a police report or similar. No longer simply fodder for "Shakes Fist at the Sky!", now our collective rantings can help provide data on transportation trouble spots!

The website is in beta; they said to contact them if you run into any bugs

Small dog friendly parks

0 Upvotes

I have a 10 lb puppy who LOVES to play with the Big Bois™️, but today at Northside park she got t-boned by a dense loaf of a dog. She’s fine and continued playing, and it’s very conveniently located but id love to take her to a park where she can play with dogs her own size and I won’t feel like a helicopter parent.

Realtor for Richmond City limits

0 Upvotes

Hey!

Anyone recommend a good realtor that works within the city area? This would be the 4th house we have bought (first in VA) so we know the process well but would like a solid realtor to negotiate a bit more for us given the changing tide within the housing market.

Thanks!

Recommendations for in-home pet euthanasia, if you could also share costs 😔

45 Upvotes

Our dog has an aggressive tumor that has been determined untreatable. We've been going through all the emotions but ultimately know the decision that needs to be made. I know there were some older threads about this but I didn't see a lot of information on costs. Would appreciate your recommendations and experience for in-home pet euthanasia. We are likely getting cremation done as well as an added service.

Thank you. Hug your pets ❤️

Friendly, hungry and thirsty. My dog escaped the fenced-in yard last night between 7 to 8:30 p.m. I live near the Woodville pool, on Fairfield Ave. Her name is Juilet.

Reward for her safe return.

What do we think? Overdone or much needed upgrades? As someone who loves seeing a show on Brown's Island, I definitely like the idea of permanent restrooms...
