Happy Hair
Mother Nature’s Secrets – Herbs For Healthy Hair Regular use of harsh chemicals in treatments for hair straightening, coloring, and curling, can lead to dry, damaged hair, breakage, and hair loss. However, there are many other contributing factors responsible for hair loss in humans. The American Academy of Dermatology notes that a nutritionally deficient diet, improper care of the hair, our genetic heritage, health issues such as anemia or alopecia, pregnancy, menopause, thyroid disease, or the body’s response to certain medications or chemotherapy, can lead to hair loss.

Nancy Twine
I really admire Nancy Twine. She is the founder and CEO of the hair care line Briogeo, which she started in 2013. The name of her company comes from two words, which are “Brio” an Italian word that means vibrant and full of life and “Geo” a Latin word that means of Earth or nature. For many years I have been searching for products to make my hair softer and to keep my curls under control. At some point I stumbled upon Nancy Twine’s Briogeo products at Sephora. Her products are for all types of hair and they have helped me with my hair concerns. Her products called “Don’t Despair, Repair!” have made my hair healthy and manageable. I am glad I have been supporting a Black-owned business for years but I had no idea who the owner of Briogeo was before preparing to write this article. I was not purchasing the products based on who the owner was but because they are great, quality products that actually do what they claim. But this was Nancy Twine’s plan all along, she wanted people to purchase her products based on the quality and effectiveness, not because they were made for a particular ethnicity. In one of her interviews she was discussing how in the past Black hair care products were commonly separated in a small section in stores. By focusing on hair texture rather than ethnicity this allows the Briogeo products to reach a much larger group of people because there are many different hair textures. Briogeo hair care products are all natural. Nancy Twine noticed that natural hair care products were being overlooked in the hair care market so her products give people who want natural ingredients that option.

A Pain in the Glass?
Snails — they’re not just for L’Escargot, anymore! I love to read about new trends in beauty. Especially since one of my goals is to age in reverse. Sounds crazy, I know, but think of the possibilities! My own YouTube channel. Podcast. Talk show. And maybe, just maybe, my MIA manager will sell my best screenplay, the one covered with a year’s layer of dust.

Stop letting Beauty Influencers waste your money
It happens to all of us. We are casually scrolling through Facebook and we come across an ad for something we have been talking about or looking at. We click it and fall down the rabbit hole. Advertising is obviously nothing new, but the way people are advertising these days cannot be escaped. Social media influencers have taken over everything to get us to buy whatever product people are pitching. These ads are directly targeted towards you through your Google searches and even your conversations.
