Sleek hair now, sparse edges later? Here’s what to know.
My messy millennial top knot has recently morphed into a slick-back, thanks to
my cute Gen Z coworkers. After wearing it a few times, I get the hype. It hides
day-two (or three…or four) greasy
roots, snatches your face, and makes me feel put together. But
just as I was getting into the trend, a chat with my favorite trichologist had

trichologist and founder of Caspara Studio in New York City, told me she’s
never seen so much hairline thinning in her practice—and she suspects those slicked-back styles are a major culprit. So much for my Gen Z makeover.
Why Your Slick-Back Could Be Stressing Your Hairline
The appeal is
obvious: A slicked-back bun looks polished, keeps every last flyaway in place,
and delivers a little face-lift effect without an appointment. But Caspara is
seeing a downside in her studio.

Nigerian actress and DJ, Dorcas Shola Fapson, popularly known as Ms. DSF, has shared her opinion on infidelity in marriages and relationships.
Speaking in a recent episode of the In My Opinion podcast, Ms. DSF stated that she advocates for retaliation when a partner cheats in a relationship or marriage.

A little prick doesn’t mean it’s working.
As a beauty editor,
I’ve slathered all kinds of ingredients on my skin—from mashed avocado to my
own blood cells and just about everything in between. But a few years ago, at
an editor launch, I heard a new term: spicule skincare. The
brand’s serum contained teeny-tiny, needle-like structures derived from marine
sponges. They emphasized the tiny part, then warned us we might feel a prickly
sensation when we applied it.
Now I’m seeing spicule serums everywhere, marketed as “microneedling in a bottle.” The idea is that those tiny structures may help other ingredients penetrate the skin and move the needle on results (pun intended). But can a

If you like your tea hot, here’s why you may want to chill for a few minutes.
Drinking tea is
