Ask most founders what they do for fun, or how they relax, and watch what happens. There is usually a pause, then a laugh, and then an answer that turns out to be work. It is the one hobby almost everybody seems to share. Underneath that pause sits a list of hobbies and interests that you keep saying you really want to do one day, but never get around to.

The list that lives under house and life admin is not fun, it rarely feels urgent until the moment it suddenly is, and it gets nudged to the bottom of every week by work, family and everything else that arrives with a deadline attached. Everyone's schedules are so full that the house and life admin simply never gets a turn. The trouble is that the jobs never actually go away.

It began as an idea that founder Yanika Cordina prototyped in a garden shed, which is about as far from a glossy beauty launch as it could possibly get, and it went on to sell globally on the strength of social media alone.

General information, not medical advice. A healthy scalp is the foundation of healthy hair, and the nutrients you eat play a real part. Your follicles are always building new hair from the nutrients in your body, so a shortfall often shows up in your hair first. The strongest evidence points to vitamin D, iron and vitamin C, alongside enough protein, zinc, B12 and omega-3.
