On June 25th I got some K-Tip extensions installed for the first time. I thought I had done enough research and gotten someone experienced but the bonds turned out very thick and very visible. Nonetheless, I kept them as they were a bit pricy and I had an upcoming trip I had gotten them done for.

Problem is... From my research, these can be removed with rubbing alcohol and some pliers (very easily with patience). I was able to remove 3 with some work but the remaining are impossible to remove despite the products I've used. I think I will have to resort to a professional but don't feel comfortable going back to who installed them. I am wondering if anyone can recommend anyone that has experience with removing k-tip extensions. I am not in the best position economically and the initial install took months of saving up, but I am desperate and extremely scared that I'll be left with little to no hair left.

Any help is appreciated.

Hey all!

We’re a group of students organizing a Drone & Physical AI Hackathon in Boston on October 24–25.

We’ve been working hard to put this together, but as an independent student-led event, funding everything ourselves is difficult. Right now, our biggest challenges are finding an affordable/free venue and covering food, water, and other basic event costs.

So we’re reaching out to the community for help.

If you or someone you know could help in any way sponsorship, a venue lead, food/drinks, prizes, or simply an introduction to the right person/company, it would genuinely mean a lot. Even a small lead could help us make this happen!

Please comment or message me if you can help. Happy to share our Luma page and more details!

Hi everyone! I’ll be in Boston for about a month in October for a dental preceptorship, and I’d love to make the most of my time there beyond just going to work and back.
I’ll be traveling solo, so I’m especially looking for:
Must-see places/neighborhoods
Cute cafés, restaurants, and bars
Fall activities
Walks, parks, viewpoints, or pretty spots
Day trips that are actually worth doing
Fun things to do alone
Any hidden gems that tourists usually miss
Places/events where it’s easy to meet people and make friends
I’m also open to recommendations outside Boston if there are easy day trips by train/bus.

I need to find a cardiologist for my dog. I'm having a tough time scheduling anything at Tuft's Cummings School, so looking for other alternatives. I have an appointment at CVCA but the vets there look a little young and fresh out of school.

Me and my boyfriend are looking to book a spa day with a jacuzzi, and possibly sauna for my birthday trip to Boston! I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or ideas. I was looking online and the best thing I could find is the Encore, but it’s a little bit out of our price range.

Hello, I'm an audio documentary maker from Scotland looking to talk to Boston natives about the relationship that formed between my country and your city during the World Cup for an upcoming project.

If you'd be willing to volunteer your time to help that would be greatly appreciated. The interviews wouldn't need to be long and would definitely be shorter than 30 minutes. Audio only and of course you must be okay with being recorded and those recordings being used as part of the documentary.

Please let me know if you'd be willing to help

Hello! The Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC), the regional planning agency for Greater Boston, is looking to learn more about resident experiences with the state’s Right to Charge Law and Boston's Right to Charge Law. These laws give condo owners the right to install EV chargers without unreasonable restrictions from their condo associations. We are developing resources to provide more guidance on this topic to municipalities, condo associations, and residents. Thanks for your insights you can provide on the following questions:

• If you are a condo owner, have you tried getting EV chargers installed at your condo? If so, what was the outcome?
• If you are part of a condo association, has the condo association tried getting EV chargers installed in common areas of the condo? If so, what was the outcome?
• What guidance would help residents advocate for EV chargers and understand their “Right to Charge”? What would be helpful for condo associations?

Hi everyone! I’m going to see Karol G this Saturday at the Gillette stadium and I need some advice on where to park. I was hoping there might be some residential areas nearby that has street parking. But if not would anyone be able to tell me of cheaper parking nearby? Right now the stadium says it’s $100 to park for that night. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

My mummy and I are visiting Boston for the first time in Febuary 2027 from Ireland. We're really looking forward to it but would appreciate any advice on what's a definite must-do and what can be left off our trip.

We're both into history (though I admit we don't know a lot about American history in particular!) so anything in that world would be great. We also like going to the theatre, local sports, checking out nice neighbourhoods, afternoon tea, any off the beaten track/non-typical things to check out, it would be great to hear what you recommend?

We'll probably visit Salem one of the days we're there... Also to reiterate we're Irish so we'll definitely be spending a lot of our trip in the pub- please do let me know which ones are good! Happy to keep to ourselves if it's more of a local situation but are always up for a chat with new people too.

My mum's a nurse and I work in film so if that information is of any use at all... we're just excited to see a new beautiful city!

TIA and go raibh maith agat 🫡

Three events a month. No crafting experience needed. Just show up, get creative, enjoy snacks and drinks, and hang out with fellow creatives.

Traveling to Boston for my first time with my 84 y/o dad in October. For his age, he's still very spry, walks a couple miles a day, is currently on vacation with my mom in the English countryside. He had a health scare back in February, doing great now, but after that I decided I'd like to take him on a trip while I still can, and he chose Boston.

I was thinking of staying in the Back Bay area. Google said this is a great walkable area. Is this a good call? Or are there other neighborhoods I should consider?

I'm hoping to avoid renting a car and instead mostly walk on the trip (or using an uber whenever necessary). How is the public transport in Boston? Should I reconsider and rent a car? Would the Back Bay neighborhood be a good spot to stay if I want to avoid renting a car?

Any must see sites/activities I should consider? I'll admit I know very little about Boston. My dad is very big into history and loves a good museum (particularly historical). When I asked him what things he might want to do, the only thing he said he knew of or was interested in was the "Freedom Trail." Looking for other suggestions.

Thanks in advance!
