I want a natural look, not chunky color. Thank you for any recommendations!

Me and my hubby in our early 50s and White for context were just leaving the post office at Center and Main in Mesa last night. My hubby was approached by 2 x 12 year old boys asking for a ride home. They said they missed the buzz bus and lived close to Dobson & Rio Solado.

We took them, found it odd. Are kids no longer taught stranger danger? We could have been weirdos. We could have been dangerous.

Once we got close to their complex I cautioned them about stranger danger and they shouldn't be asking strangers for rides. They said we know, we do this alot. I asked them if their mom knew. They said no. I was in shock. These kids are brave.

I'm a 24 year old queer man currently residing in the new England area, looking for a fresh start and AZ is calling my name. (Especially with the thrill of no snow)

Here's my question to the locals, what do you like, what do you hate? Why would you recommend az or should I look elsewhere?

Thank you for your time and input

This is Waylon Im not sure of his age he was originally adopted by his owner from Arizona animal welfare league so he has all his shots and had been fixed. His owner recently passed away and we are trying to find him a good home.
A little about Waylon
He’s both an inside and outdoor cat he knows how to use a doggy door uses the bathroom outside and has lived with 4 small dogs (so he is definitely good with small dogs) he is sweet and friendly loves to cuddle and make biscuits on you. He knows how to sit if you tell him sit.
He is just looking for a loving home 🙂
He is not for sale.

No matter where I drive in Mesa, there is road construction. I'm all for better roads, but the road construction by my house is for apartments two blocks away. They closed off the street out of my neighborhood to pull sewer lines. For the next month, there is an additional 5 minutes to leave and come home because they closed the street right by our neighborhood entrance and have to drive all the way around to come in the back way.

And they are building the apartments in the strangest location off of the 202 and Gilbert road. Totally below sea level. LOL!!

Just wanted to vent. There are definitely worse things in life to get upset about. At least they say this construction will be done by July 3rd 🤞

Anyone knows good people that boards dog?

Looking for recommendations for a lash tech in east mesa, I like a super simple wet style set with pops of color if anyone has any recommendations 🥹🖤

Just realized that there appears to be a broken sprinkler pipe under my paver driveway. Anyone have someone they trust to remove the pavers, repair the leak and then get the pavers back properly?

Hello Mesa Reddit members,

I am a local in Mesa AZ for a few years now, I’m really looking forward to Saboten Con. However, I wasn’t able to get a table last year because I couldn’t go. Is there any artists who willing to split table with me? DM me on here or Instagram if you are interested!

Here is my art Instagram:

Looking for a good place to grab donuts occasionally for coworkers/friends etc. that’s not super expensive.

Doesn’t necessarily have to be donuts, breakfast pastries in general are good! Just want to be able to surprise people every once in a while.

Looking for recommendations on where to take my Hyundai for service in the Valley. Drop your dealership, location, and experience below!

Really disappointed in how the ticketing for this event was handled. Anyone have extra tickets they’d be willing to part ways with?

Hey! Me (22M) and my partner (21F) are considering a move to Mesa for a job opportunity I received, we’re gonna stop by this weekend to check out the city and try to get a feel for the community there. We’re both from California, avid weed smokers, enjoy the alternative scene, and the fitness community. Is there anything we should do or smth that is a “cannot miss”?

P.S. If we do move over there I would need to rent out a room for a month or so, please let me know if you know a spot!

Anyone know any places that do casual tailoring or alterations? I have some polos that I want to get sized down.

I live in far east Mesa - north of the 60 near Signal Butte - and am growing my beard long for the first time. It's gotten to the point where I need it trimmed to even it out and define the shape a bit. Does anyone know of a good barber in the area for beard trimming/shaping?

Edit: Thank you to everyone for your recommendations! Appointment is booked for Friday.

Just looking for a realistic average of what people pay for house cleaners. Like how much do you pay and how often are they coming? Do you find that it’s worth it? I try to keep my home clean, but sometimes I just need help. I also feel like they would do a much better job than I typically do. No judgment please just looking for some advice. 🙂

Does anyone know of any basketball groups that meet in the mornings/evenings in Mesa? Churches, gyms, etc?

This might be a given, but I think there is gonna be a mix.

Would you rather have a young candidate (18, 19, or 20 years old) who is politically driven, or a 55-year-old candidate who is driven by the people funding their campaign?

I’m curious because I think people might consider the young person who wants actual change, but some might want experience. Figured I’d ask

Anyone have any recommendations for apartments up in or near mesa? Ex destroyed my credit and trying to get back on my feet. Studio-2bedroom apartments. TIA!

This is probably a long shot, but I was hoping someone might have an extra ticket to see the Turkish National Team practice on June 8. My husband is Turkish and loves soccer, and I really want to surprise him since it sold out so fast.

If you have a single spare ticket you aren't using, please send me a DM! I would be incredibly grateful.

I have a good full-time job (7 AM–4 PM) as an Analytical Engineer, but I’d like to make better use of my evenings and weekends.

I have an engineering background, experience in data analytic and currently live in the Mesa/Tempe area. I’m looking for part-time work or a side gig that can realistically be done after work hours or on weekends.

For those who have engineering or analytical backgrounds, what side hustles or part-time jobs have worked well for you? Any local opportunities or remote options you’d recommend?

Thanks
