There’s a world of a difference between regular air-dried curls and an expertly diffused look.

To master this look for yourself, check out our step-by-step tutorial so that you can learn how to use a hair dryer diffuser in minutes:...

So how can we start laughing more every day? Seems like a silly question—but hey, silliness is in order! Here’s Barry Boyce, Mindful‘s Editor-in-Chief, talking about why it’s important to ask ourselves that question. From Mindful‘s June 2015 issue: Laughter is very serious business. Just ask John Cleese, who sings the praises of spontaneous laughter—“he who laughs most, learns best”—and believes “true laughter… destroys any kind of system of dividing people....

Here’s everything you need to know about this miracle product: Leave-in Conditioner for Men 101 What is Leave-in Conditioner? Just like a traditional conditioner, leave-in conditioners moisturize hair and make it much easier to manage. The only difference though, leave-in conditioners are meant to stay on the hair and are not rinsed off. We know you may be skipping the conditioner in the shower, but we love the idea of using a conditioner and a leave-in conditioner, especially if you have a head full of hair longer than an inch or so, or your hair is on the curlier and/or drier side....

We’re quickly approaching the time of year when we’re saying goodbye to all of the trends that won our hearts this season, and hello to all things new (ok, much more like hair trends that are renewed, revived and revamped).

The sharp, streamlined creation took about three years to produce. The long timeline has to do with the fact that Ganfi was starting from scratch in a lot of ways. “Very soon, I realized that there’s no actual know-how, how to work with the cardboard, besides making packages out of it,” says Gafni, “so I started to explore it, and then I figured out a lot of things out of it....

Most of us find that if we’re asked to go on a short fast, perhaps before having a medical test, we can pull it off. In a moment, without all that much stress, our nutritional habits drop away.
