WELLNESS: PREGNANCY HAIR LOSS MAY BE ON THE BINGO CARDS
It’s definitely not as talked about as postpartum hair loss, but shedding a to of hair during pregnancy is a real (& often stress-related) condition. After taking note of the unusual breakage, some women discover iron & vitamin D deficiencies, both of which can impact hair health. Addressing nutrition, minimizing hair product usage and overall manipulation, and patience (potentially the hardest of all) may just be the key to managing pregnancy hair loss.

FASHION: SUMMER DRESS TRENDS
When it’s 100 degrees out, the last thing you want is clingy clothesβ€”enter breezy, lightweight dresses that keep you cool and stylish. This summer is all about effortless elegance, with floaty silhouettes, vintage-inspired prints, and cool cutouts taking center stage. Think easy poplin shirt dresses, flirty scarf prints, and nautical touches that feel just right for a season of elevated relaxation.

TRAVEL: THE MAGIC SUPPLEMENT TO AVOID GETTING SICK WHILE TRAVELING
Jet-setting is thrilling, but let’s be real β€” travel can be brutal on your immune system. Between packed planes, time zone chaos, and sleep disruptions, your body’s defenses take a hitβ€”which is why zinc lozenges have earned a permanent spot in a lot of people’s carry ons. They can help shorten a cold if taken within 24 hours of the first sniffle, especially at doses of 75 mg or more.
