Having very short hair has made me more aware than ever about the condition of my scalp since, well, you can see it. I like using a shampoo that has peppermint and tea tree oil and then using a silicone scalp brush to massage and lightly exfoliate my head. It gives me a quick moment to relax, but more importantly, it keeps me from worrying about the very gross but real possibility of having a dry, flaky scalp.

Recently picked up this minty hair vinegar from YesStyle. I wash my hair 2x a week and this feels incredible w a little scalp massage and a nice brush

This brush genuinely changed the look of my hair while prolonging the life of each wash. The boar bristles help to distribute oil from the scalp down the shaft of the hair, acting as a natural “dry shampoo” and hydrating the usually dry parts of the hair. It also feels like a scalp massage, and stimulates the scalp for better growth. I spend time brushing my hair from scalp to tips, and after several minutes, you can literally see the results. The roots look refreshed and less oily, and my hair is silky. Expensive, yes, but I will pass this brush to my daughters, it is so beautifully crafted.

Refreshing. Light. I put this on my roots overnight before I plan to wash my hair in the morning. Feels like tiny little angels kissing your scalp. You’re welcome.

As someone who works in food media, I watch a lot of cooking videos. As much as I love instructional videos with charming hosts, that's not what I watch to chill my brain out. Instead, and because I am obsessed with food, I watch quiet cooking videos on YouTube that one might even call cooking ASMR. They generally show someone cooking a dish with little to no background music or narration; instead, you see beautiful food and hear pleasant sizzle sounds or the gentle scraping of a wooden spoon. My favorite channels are 꿀키honeykki and yedy101, whose delightfully cross-eyed cat usually makes an appearance in the background.

I have long ridden extremely hard for Muji's 0.38mm gel pens, which I used to have relatives in other countries send to me before Muji expanded into the US. But since I'm a sucker for an ultra-fine-tipped pen, I knew I had to try Sharpie's version, and now, I think I'm a convert. These write even more smoothly, no matter how I have the pen angled, and the gel is really black and doesn't smudge. Plus, since they're retractable, I no longer have to worry about losing all my pen caps at the bottom of my bag.

Is it ridiculous to carry my keys on a titanium key ring when carabiners cost a dollar? Yes! Does it make me feel fancy even when I'm making an emergency run to the bodega for toilet paper? Definitely. I love the sleek shape of this key clip and the fact that it will outlive me, plus it doubles as a bottle opener.
