How I learned about this was “no space, leave this place” always check the mirrors in changing rooms etc, ladies.

Does nobody own a mirror?  I 100% just grabbed the mirror on my coffeetable (I was touching up my dreads) to check this and there was definitely no space.  My actual honest to god mirror looked like the one on the right.  This “test” only works in very specific circumstances and the easiest way to tell if  there’s a 2-way-glass instead of a mirror in your dressing room is to use common sense:  Is it hung on or attached to a wall?  It’s a mirror.  Is it set into a wall like a window?  Knock on it and see if it sounds like a window or if it sounds like something solid is behind it.

Also, 2 way glass only works if the room being observed is more brightly lit than the room on the other side.  If it’s the other way around, you’d be able to see through it.  Just walk up to the “mirror” and cup your hands around your eyes to block out light.  Focus, and you’ll probably be able to see into the next room unless it’s pitch black in there (it’s usually not, because nobody is sitting in the dark observing you unless they think you’re smart enough to investigate the mirror).

I swear y’all will hit reblog on literally anything.  The entire internet is at your disposal to factcheck anything (not to mention real life investigation) but it’s like “oh wow an info-graphic/pic and a two line caption.  Must be accurate.  **slam reblog**
