Real Solutions for Frizzy Hair That Actually Work The Anti-Frizz Guide for Hot, Humid Days Real Solutions for Frizzy Hair That Actually Work by Khadija Husain 20 Aug 2025 By the time you step out into Dubai’s sweltering heat, your hair is already reacting, puffing up, curling out, and resisting any attempt at looking polished. If you struggle with frizz during hot, humid months, you’re not alone. Smooth, manageable hair in high humidity is possible with the right approach. From cleansing and conditioning to lightweight serums and targeted treatments, it’s all about using formulas that hydrate, protect, and tame frizz without weighing hair down. To understand what works in extreme climates like the Gulf, we spoke to Maya Fadel, Deputy General Manager and Brand Manager at Softcare Cosmetics, and Nassim Basma, co-founder of Softcare Cosmetics. With years of experience bringing high-performance, clean beauty formulations to the region, they shared insight into what GCC women really need to fight frizz and dryness. Why Hair Gets Frizzy in the Heat Humidity is the main culprit. In hot, moist air, the hair’s cuticle lifts, allowing moisture to enter and causing strands to swell and misbehave. This is especially noticeable on dry, curly, or chemically treated hair. Show More

The It-Girl Haircare Blueprint: Your Luxe DIY Guide to Silky, Camera-Ready Locks The It-Girl Routine: Discover the Ultimate DIY Haircare Guide for You The It-Girl Haircare Blueprint: Your Luxe DIY Guide to Silky, Camera-Ready Locks by Khadija Husain 13 Dec 2024 Let’s face it, we all want that flawless, effortless hair look that our favorite “It Girls” like Maddison Beer, Sabrina Carpenter, and Hailey Bieber pull off so seamlessly. But with endless options and an avalanche of recommendations, it can feel overwhelming. Where do you even begin? Before making any drastic decisions (like chopping all your hair off—please don’t!), why not start with simple, effective at-home treatments? Dr. Shruti Kakar, an Aesthetic Dermatologist & Expert Consultant at Vatika, shares her top DIY haircare tips to help you achieve healthy, Instagram-worthy hair year-round. Shampoos: The First Step to a Great Haircare Routine The foundation of any great haircare routine starts with the right shampoo. Harsh shampoos with strong chemicals or sulfates can strip your scalp and hair of their natural oils, leaving your strands dry, brittle, and prone to damage. To maintain a healthy scalp and shiny, strong hair, begin with a mild shampoo that’s gentle on both the scalp and hair. How to: When selecting a shampoo, look for formulas labeled “sulfate-free” or “for sensitive scalp.” Sulfates, commonly found in most shampoos, are surfactants that create foam, but they also remove essential oils that keep your hair hydrated and protected. By using a mild, sulfate-free shampoo, your hair will thank you by staying moisturized, soft, and shiny! Show More

Movember Masterclass: Expert Grooming Tips for a Legendary Moustache Movember Must-Haves: Essential Grooming Tips for Your Best Moustache Movember Masterclass: Expert Grooming Tips for a Legendary Moustache by Hussain R 6 Nov 2024 November is more than just the start of winter; it's also the month dedicated to Movember, the global initiative that raises awareness for men’s health issues like prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health. It’s a time to grow, groom, and proudly showcase that moustache! We spoke with Yazan Sadoud, co-owner at soon-to-launch Chaps & Co Vida Creek Beach, to get expert advice on how to keep your mustache looking sharp throughout Movember and beyond. Here are five essential tips for mustache maintenance that’ll help you make a stylish statement while supporting a great cause. Start with a Clean Slate According to Yazan, the first step to a great moustache is cleanliness. "Keeping your moustache clean is crucial, not just for appearance but for its overall health," he says. "Use a gentle, moisturizing face wash daily—something made specifically for facial hair. It’ll help remove dirt without stripping away those natural oils you need." A clean base makes a big difference in styling, he explains, as it’s easier to groom and keeps your moustache soft and healthy. Master the Trim While trimming at home works for regular maintenance, Yazan emphasizes the importance of seeing a professional. "A good trim every 2-3 weeks really helps to keep your moustache in shape and prevents overgrowth," he advises. A barber can also help you find the best style to suit your face. "At-home trimming is great, but a professional touch-up makes a world of difference, and they can teach you techniques to keep things neat between visits." Show More

Secure at Last: Healing Insecure Attachments and Reclaiming Emotional Well-Being Healing from Insecure Attachments: A Journey to Emotional Well-Being Secure at Last: Healing Insecure Attachments and Reclaiming Emotional Well-Being by Khadija Husain 1 Nov 2024 From a baby's first cry, met by a mother’s comforting touch, the fundamental human need for connection is revealed. These early interactions set the foundation for emotional bonds that influence our relationships throughout life. Cynthia Ghosn, a DHA-Licensed Psychology Technician and Early Career Professional at Thrive Wellbeing Centre, delves into the nature of insecure attachments, exploring their roots and how they shape our adult connections. According to Cynthia, the attachments formed in childhood significantly influence how we connect with others as adults. When caregivers consistently meet emotional needs, secure attachments are likely to develop. However, when these needs are unmet or met inconsistently, insecure attachment patterns emerge. These can manifest in three distinct styles: Anxious Attachment : Often a result of inconsistent caregiving, anxious attachment leads to a fear of abandonment and a need for constant reassurance. Adults with this attachment style may grapple with low self-esteem, find it hard to communicate their needs, and often become overly dependent on their partners for validation. This dynamic can challenge the maintenance of healthy boundaries and emotional regulation in relationships. Avoidant Attachment : Stemming from emotionally distant caregiving, avoidant attachment results in a reluctance to form close emotional bonds. Those with this style tend to suppress emotions, avoid conflict, and prize independence as a form of self-protection. As a result, forming deep, meaningful connections can be difficult, as emotional vulnerability is perceived as a threat. Disorganised Attachment : Originating from environments where caregivers are sources of both comfort and fear, disorganised attachment leads to confusion in relationships. Adults with this style may alternate between seeking closeness and withdrawing out of fear, resulting in unpredictable behavior. Trust and security often feel elusive, complicating both personal and professional connections. Show More
