After 3 weeks of waiting, I finally got my jeans back from Denim Therapy. Here are my thoughts:
I dropped off a pair of selvedge denim at Denim Therapy and they charged me $40 for it. I figured, why not, they must do something special, or something really well.
They also wanted $40 for tapering my Levi’s 501 and random Gap jeans, I said no on those and took the Levi’s and Gap to the dry cleaner across the street. They pinned me exactly the same as Denim Therapy but charged me $15 each and promised to have it done in 2 days. I picked it up 2 days later and they came out perfect. Exactly what I asked for.
Denim Therapy also did a stellar job. Probably the same as the dry cleaner who tapered the jeans from the inseam, even though the jeans weren’t selvedged.
Moral of the story? Don’t throw down $40 and wait 3 weeks for a taper when you can get it done at a dry cleaner for less than half the price, and in 48 hours.
Oh, I think it’s just that most recent photo that makes it look clear but I have really bad skin. Struggled with acne for a good portion of my life and I’ve tried literally everything on the market. However, I noticed my skin was at it’s best when I just got too lazy, or absentminded to order another 3-month supply of _____ and used like all natural St. Ives shit from CVS. I got off all the different 3-part/4-part/5-part skin care regiment and just switched over to all natural St. Ives face wash and within weeks I saw a big difference. Drowning your face/pores with all those chemicals is just bad news… it’s so obvious but when your skin is lookin like shit, you are willing to try anything. But it’s best to use less…
Since then though, I’ve been a bit more aware of what I use on my face and generally 2% Salicylic Acid is good for everyone; from clear skin to acne-prone skin. So I’ve been using Anthony Logistics Anti Acne Cleanser. Skin cleared up quite a bit and don’t get as oily as I normally do. I also keep a pack of those oil-sheets in my bag for those extra oily days.
I hope that helps.
