It's a fact that women pay more for haircuts and hairstyles than men do. That's understandable; for the main part, they have more hair! When you're an international pop celebrity and a style icon, you'll inevitably spend more money staying on-trend and well-presented than most people do. We're not sure most celebrities take things quite as far as Rihanna has over the years, though.
There isn't a hairstyle Rihanna hasn't had, other than shaving her head (and we won't rule that out as a future look). From weaves to perms to extensions, she's tried and discarded them all. Her most expensive look is believed to have cost her one million dollars. We're not immediately sure which style it was - or how it could possibly have cost her so much - but we know it happened, and that's pretty incredible.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
