Dry Shampoo Powder: The Basics One of the earliest forms of dry shampoo came in the form of a powder when it was used to color and deodorize wigs back during the 1700s in the United States. It’s also been reported to have been used by people in Asia in the 1500s, in the form of clay powder. Nowadays, dry shampoo powder is usually made of an oil-absorbing ingredient like starch (most often cornstarch or rice starch), mixed with either a scented or unscented freshener....
Micellar Water as Scalp Care Micelles are tiny cleansing agents that bond to impurities and whisk them away. Think dandruff, product build-up, sweat, and other impurities. They simultaneously detoxify your scalp while leaving essential nutrients behind. About My Hair I am part of the Hasidic Orthodox Jewish sect Chabad Lubavitch. After getting married, we believe that hair takes on an extra layer of sacrality, and we cover our hair with wigs and scarves to preserve that holiness....

But when we’re clear on our core values, and they appear to be under attack, what role can our mindfulness practice play? Judson Brewer is Director of Research at the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. His forthcoming book, The Craving Mind (Yale University Press, March 2017) explores how our impulse control often takes us off course when we participate in addictive behaviors—everything from smoking to binge-watching Netflix....
Wrzesniewski’s answers to these kinds of questions contribute to a growing heap of evidence that individual disposition and personality traits have real implications for how we experience our work. A job itself is neither awesome nor terrible, since the experience we have doing a job depends largely on what we bring to it.

Yet a recent paper by researchers from Stanford and Harvard suggests we better stop taking workplace stress for granted and address it head on. The researchers posit that health issues arising from job stress—like hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and poor mental health—can lead to conditions that kill more than 120,000 people per year. This would make work-related stress one of the top-five causes of death in the United States, akin to accidents, more lethal than diabetes, Alzheimer’s, or influenza....

It can range from a mild sensitivity like a wheat allergy to full-blown celiac disease, which is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small intestine and leads to malnutrition. So do gluten-sensitive people really need gluten-free shampoos? Well, this all depends on your level of sensitivity. Wheat is a common ingredient in a lot of hair care products like mousse and hairspray since it can provide elasticity, but since shampoos and conditioners aren’t meant to be eaten or ingested at all, they don’t pose a high risk like products in the food and beverage industry....
