Growing up, a key memory for me was sitting on the floor between my mom's legs while she sectioned my hair and thoroughly oiled my scalp. I can remember the smell of the oil, the feeling of it dripping down the sides of my face, and the immediate relief my itchy, dry scalp felt. I forgot the name of the oil she used to “grow my hair like a weed” from high school through college, but I never forgot the distinct look of the bottle, which always reminded me of kitchen olive oil. That was, until I came across Difeel’s Premium Natural Jamaican Black Castor Hair Oil, which finally put a name to the product. And like it was fated for me to find it, I was able to stock up while it’s on sale for 46 percent off on Amazon.

Whether your hair is starting to thin or has always been on the finer side, it’s not uncommon for us to want to find ways to boost the bulk in our hair for thicker-looking strands. Your options are somewhat limited in this area, and many dermatologists recommend a multi-layered approach that involves trying a few different methods to see what works best for you. If you have genetic hair loss, the best solution may be minoxidil (Rogaine) or a more potent supplement, but hair oils can act as a natural topical hair thickening assistant, if you’d rather go that route.

Losing hair, watching it thin out, or finding clumps in your brush can really get you down. It’s crucial to consult a dermatologist to figure out the best plan tailored to your needs.

Benjamin Franklin once said that “In this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” It’s pretty obvious he wasn’t around in the age of tabloids and social media, otherwise his renowned quote would have to be adjusted to include “rumors about female celebrity pregnancies.” They’re a dime a dozen, and record-breaking Olympic gymnast Simone Biles seems to be their latest target.

No soap, no water, no nothing. If you don't shower regularly, that's your prerogative (though there's no guarantees your friends and family won't have something to say).

I'll clue you in on one of the best hair-growth tips I ever learned from stylists and trichologists: Fuller hair starts in the shower. Slap it on a billboard, recite it nightly, or do whatever you can to commit the phrase to memory. Let's face it—you can collect all the scalp-stimulating serums and fancy tools you please, but if you don't start with a good, high-quality wash, you just won't see peak results. It's similar logic to washing your face. You can't expect all those juicy serums to penetrate your pores without a clean canvas!

Martha Stewart is currently galavanting around the Paris 2024 Olympics completing random side quests alongside Snoop Dogg. (I will never get over how random that friendship is.) She just turned 83 years old and looks ageless as ever—I pray to our lizard overlords that I ever look half that radiant. She’s not one to gatekeep, either, and a lot of her go-to products are very affordable. She does, however, splurge, as is evident by her Clé de Peau Beauté Eye Contour Cream Supreme.
