7 Natural Hairstyles You Can Easily Re-Create at Home

Image
When planning this tutorial for natural hairstyles, we knew we had to recruit the hair mavens at Mane Addicts to help us find the master in natural styling - and they delivered. Celebrity hairstylist Cesar Ramirez glams up performers like Ciara, Jennifer Hudson , and Kelly Rowland, and when we tasked him with creating seven easy DIY natural hair looks - one for every day of the week - he nailed it. Many times, you see an expert tutorial where the looks are great, but they're impossible to do alone at home. To drive home the point that these are truly a solo activity, we recruited blogger Grasie Mercedes , whom Ramirez taught each look before she demonstrated alone on camera. Ramirez was inspired to create fresh looks that weren't already plastered all over the internet. "It gets redundant with natural hairstyles, because everyone goes for the same styles," Ramirez said. "I wanted to be inspired by those ideas and put my twist on them. I don't like to co

Fashion designers have found a valuable way to contribute in the midst of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Project Runway 's Christian Siriano and Brandon Maxwell pledged to use their skills and resources to create much-needed supplies for healthcare workers, like face masks and gowns. Christian first used Twitter to offer his team's assistance to New York, after Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed a concern over a shortage of essential protective equipment.

If you have persistent acne , chances are you've heard of spironolactone . And if you go to a dermatologist, chances are you've tried it or are currently using it. While it was originally developed to treat high blood pressure, spironolactone is now a derm favorite for fighting hormonal breakouts. It blocks androgens like testosterone that are often responsible for the type of zits that seem invincible against every pimple cream in your medicine cabinet. But if you're taking spironolactone right now, you may want to stop for a surprising (and scary) reason: It could make COVID-19 (coronavirus) worse. NYC dermatologist Ellen Marmur , MD, is recommending her patients stop using it. "The American Academy of Dermatology has not said to stop spironolactone," says Dr. Marmur, "…but we know that ACE inhibitors and spironolactone upregulate the number of receptors to possibly allow more virus to come into the cell based on this data , which is published…I would st
