Beauty Myths…Debunked
Our mothers have filled our heads with a large quantity of beauty myths. I’ve decided to share with you what is fact and what is fiction.
The first beauty myth deals with those pesky grey hairs. Think if you pluck them that two will grow in its place? Well they won’t. Hair whitens as part of the natural aging process. The only reason we start to see more grey hairs after we’ve plucked the first one is because we’re really looking for them.
The second deals with shaving. It is absolutely absurd that shaving hair makes it grow back thicker and fuller. If this was the case, bald men would be shaving their head every day to try and get their hair back. Sometimes a hair is not plucked off from the follicle so when the hair grows back the wide part of the strand grows out making it look thicker.
The last myth I have to discuss involves toothpaste. While toothpaste contains some ingredients that can dry up a pimple and make it heal much quicker, it can also irritate the skin and cause you worse problems. So use the toothpaste for your teeth and go pick up a pimple cream.
