Breaking Beauty Podcast

Palm Beach-based certified trichologist Bridgette Hill is entering the chat on stress-induced hair loss, alopecia, receding hairlines in women, seborrheic dermatitis and more. We’re even finding out whether baseball caps are bad for boyfriends, hunny!

Plus, we find out how to troubleshoot early signs of hair loss, which supplements are worth the money, whether red light therapy *really* works and which affordable item you can snatch from your pantry to help balance your scalp’s moisture barrier. Finally, are scalp facials the new facial-facials?

Clayton Hawkins is the wig-wearing, vintage hot tool-collecting hairstylist to Olivia Rodrigo, Dove Cameron and Emily in Paris’ Ashley Park. Today, we’re diving deep into his tickle trunk, as Clayton decodes the hottest hair trends of 2022, so far. The “shullett,” bottleneck bangs, Y2K baby braids – we’re covering it all, honey. We find out the exact products in the Hollywood hairstylist’s hair kit, from the essential brushes to the $6 dry shampoo and the hot tools – 70s, 90s and new – that he thinks are definitely worth the investment.    But first, we discuss the recent Olaplex headlines that prompted some TikTok users to start binning their hair holy grails. Do they really cause infertility? Jill’s not throwing away her bottle yet, guys! We reached out to the brand for their official statement. (To understand the science behind the study that led to banning of the ingredient in the EU and why testing on rats is different from testing on humans, we recommend watching Dr. Michelle Wong aka @labmuffinbeautyscience's breakdown of this topic.)   Get social with us and let us know what you think of the episode!

Between her unmistakable Massachusetts accent and her next-level looks, TikTok makeup artist Mikayla Nogueira has earned 10.4 million followers in just 2 years. In today’s episode, Mikayla reflects on her epic metamorphosis, from apprenticing as a special FX makeup artist at her father’s haunted house, to her very first viral TikTok video where, scarred from bullies, she hid her iconic accent before learning to embrace her true self.    And since Mikayla is the powerful makeup artist single-handedly making all of those beauty products go viral on TikTok, we find out which Holy Grail items she uses everyday, from her fave indie eyeshadows to her ride-or-die mascara and the front-running longwear foundation she’s testing for her upcoming wedding. Plus, we discover which #1 product turned around her cystic/hormonal acne forever, and we hear about the over-hyped complexion product that failed the Mikayla test.    BONUS: For the first time ever, we have exclusive content available only on TikTok!
