Aww lookit Madeleine’s cute little space buns. She told me her boyfriend doesn’t do the aftercare right when he uses the impact wands on her.
Impact wands HURT. And it’s a delayed pain. For a second you’re like “oh that wasn’t so ba…” and then you crumple to the ground and die a little because the ouch kicks in.
I like to start rubbing the spot when that happens, gently but firmly. I remember learning in a neurology class how rubbing an area after pain can help because the sensation “confuses the nerves”. I also make little noises of condescending concern, “Oh you poor thing.” It helps too.
(Make sure you zoom in on the second photo to see the cute marks and Madeleine’s pouty scowl.)
