Tips I Learnt from a Pro Makeup Artist for Natural Looking Skin

Sundaze 02.

It’s the end of mid-March, and boy what a whirlwind of a month it has been already! I’m almost afraid to say the C-Word on here as it appears to be what everyone is talking about for the past few weeks. I think to suggest that Corona Virus or COVID19 has caused upheaval on people’s lives is an understatement. From...

The Book Edit 01.

Another new monthly series: The Book Edit. Reading has always been a favourite pastime of mine; if I am not listening to music or a podcast on the train, then it will be a book for the journey.

Oof. Oh boy ... alright, here we go. ⠀⠀⠀⠀ Oof. Oh boy ... alright, here we go.

I don't know why it's taken me such a long time to share this -- well actually, that's a lie. I do know why. Hair loss is something that is often brushed aside, hidden under depths of shame and despair as another 'taboo' topic that are deemed too uncouth for women to talk about openly. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But in my research to improve my self esteem and find ways to prevent further hair loss; I quickly realised that this is a condition that affects a huge percentage of men (my dad included) and women. If you type in hair loss into Google, there are 1.6 billion results. The first few pages of results are targeted towards men and the general symptoms of hair loss. It's only when you specify 'hair loss women' do you realise that 907 million (57%) of those results are relevant to women. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And suddenly, I realised that I am not alone in my suffering. So, #letstalkabouthairloss and remove this taboo that currently surrounds it. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The biggest struggles I've faced while producing content on social media and my blog has been about finding my voice and not falling into the masses of bloggers who publish the same deliverables. Perhaps the reason why I've experienced this writer's block is because I've been too afraid to speak out about something that I've considered exceptionally personal and incredibly private.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are different types of hair loss and I am well aware that I have not been dealt the worst cards - but every single person's suffering is as valid. I would like to use this platform to speak about my journey & the steps I'm taking to help my hair in hopes that I will bring some positivity and confidence to someone else who is going through the same things that I am.
