How to Seriously Beef Up Your Postpartum Hair with Steak Tenderloin

Your post-pregnancy hair is shedding faster than a poodle with mange. We’re here to help.

Can’t figure out how to stop your post-pregnancy hair from shedding faster than a poodle with mange? If so, that’s probably because you’re trying to volumize your locks when you should be tenderizing them with a Porterhouse! Here’s how to deal with the fallout with a juicy slab of meat.

#1 – Rub protein directly onto scalp.

“As your system rebalances, your hair is going to be last on your body’s list of priorities to nourish, so it often needs some external support,” says trichologist Gemma Cohen. She recommends massaging your scalp with “nutrient-rich steaks that contain plenty of protein and iron.” We recommend marinating it in a delicious Chianti beforehand; this not only further tenderizes it, but also allows you to consume a few drops in hopes of catching a buzz so you don’t realize how ridiculous you look while smothering your hair with a t-bone.

#2 – Don’t fear washing your hair in a bucket of beef.

If you wash your hair too vigorously with an old-school product, such as shampoo and water (classic mistake!), you run the risk of drying it out, causing it to break easily and go the way of George Costanza. So don’t be afraid to fill up a bucket with meats and stick your head right in there! The smell of tasty steak will distract you from the fact you look like you’re suffering from male pattern baldness and the grease will ensure your hair doesn’t become more dry.

#3 – Wear a flat-iron steak band

This thin cut of steak cut with the grain from the shoulder of the animal makes the perfect hair-loss accessory! Simply tie it around your head to disguise the bald spots and the reality that you haven’t taken a shower in days, and soak in its oily goodness. Sure, you might attract flies and weird stares, but at least you’ve covered those unsightly wisps! So very Gaga-at-the-VMAs chic.

How to Hide Under-Eye Circles with Various Foods and Crafts

As inspired by stock photography models!

Published

on

Many women, young and old, struggle with dark circles and bags under the eyes. They can stem from fatigue, genes, all-night tequila benders and/or a long-term condition known as motherhood. Unfortunately, concealer can’t always cover those nasty circles, so where to turn for help? The answer: stock photography models, whose penchant for hiding their eyes behind various fruits, sweets and crafts also happens to be the perfect beauty hack!

When you walk around all day with cherry tomatoes on your eyes, nobody will even notice your dark circles.

When your genes hand you lemons … make lemon eyes.

Tip: For bigger and deeper under-eye bags, be sure to grab oversized candies.

Oh my God, woman, no! If you’re going to do this, you’re going to have to really COMMIT. No peeking. Now you just look silly.

We do not recommend using foods that you’re tempted to eat. Just look at how this poor woman is struggling not to devour the donut-concealers.

Afraid that most any food is going to tempt you? Then get creative, like this stock photography model who was at her friend’s bachelorette party until 4 a.m. did, and hide your bloodshot eyes and dark circles behind some seasonal arts and crafts.

Up all night with the baby and embarrassed to go shopping looking like a zombie? Hide your fatigue with a more simple craft, such as this winking emoji-inspired index card.

You’ll never look more refreshed than with your eyes properly hidden behind a pair of tart cakes.

“Have any fun plans tonight?” you might want to ask yourself.

#2 – Be sure to rinse raw chicken bits off the scissors.

The old spaghetti sauce, too.

#3 – Have a few shots of tequila to help steady the hands.

All about steadiness.

#4 – Consider doing it outside. The wind will blow the hair away. Also, you don’t get out much anymore.

The fresh air will lift your spirits and blow away your hair.

#5 – Make sure the first cut is a HUGE chunk. Where nobody can miss it. Now it’s too late to chicken out.
