EXPERTS REVEAL TOP NUTRITIONAL TIPS FOR GAINING MUSCLE Gaining muscle is not just down to how many hours you spend in the gym, it is essential that you are balancing your nutritional intake alongside your training in order to efficiently increase muscle mass. Fitness expert Anthony O’Reilly from BarBend has revealed a guide to help people learn how to gain muscle. Calculate your calories Gaining muscle involves striking the right balance between eating excess calories to build muscle and overeating which may cause weight gain, so it’s vital that you track your calories as precisely as possible. It’s near to impossible to guess your exact calorie intake so to properly track your calories, it’s best to use a calorie counting tool such

as a phone app so you can see your exact nutritional intake and tailor it to your body and routine.
Master the timing of protein intake In the past, there has been a lot of talk surrounding the term ‘anabolic window’ which means that there is a very limited time period after working out for protein or carbs to be absorbed properly by muscles to aid muscle
growth. Despite this, new studies have found that spreading protein intake out over the course of the day is still an effective way for your body to process the protein to build muscle.
Eat the right amount of fat Although fatty foods are generally bad for you due to the link between saturated fats and heart disease, there are also good fats that help contribute to the hormonal functions of the body including testosterone production which is necessary for muscle growth. Some examples of good fats are avocado, salmon, peanuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sesame oil etc, which all provide essential nutrients for efficient cellular function and overall health.
Track your macros Although tracking calories constantly is
Fitness & Beauty Update
normally not advised, if you are wanting to really build muscle you will need to make sure you are consuming essential macronutrients for muscle growth such as carbohydrates, fats and protein. Carbohydrates provide energy for exercising; fats support hormonal function and protein is integral for building muscle but the number of macros you should be eating is completely dependent on the individual and what you are trying to achieve.
Focus on your protein intake When looking to gain muscle, the most important macronutrient to focus on is protein. Also known as essential amino acids (EAAs), there are nine that are an integral part in maintaining a healthy diet and building muscle. As part of a normal western diet, you are probably already eating enough protein without realising with white and red meat being the highest sources of protein.
However, vegetarians and vegans should be a little more mindful when trying to build muscle, as most vegetable-based proteins lack some EAAs. A good variety of alternatives such as soybeans, lentils, rice, beans and other grains should ensure that you are consuming enough protein for your body.
Eat the right amount of carbs Carbohydrates are often seen in a negative sense when it comes to diet plans and are often limited or sometimes even completely cut out.
When it comes to building muscle however, carbs are a fundamental part of a nutritional plan. When exercising, carbs are converted to glucose and restores glycogen which provides energy to the body and helps endurance in the gym. The only thing you should be careful of is making sure you are consuming the right sources of carbs, some of which include brown rice, oatmeal, wholewheat bread or pasta etc. Please visit barbend.com for more information.

CUT YOUR HAIR SHORT BUT FEEL RESTRICTED? TOP TIPS IF YOU’RE LOOKING TO INVEST IN HAIR EXTENSIONS By Hair Extension Specialist Nicole Petty at Milk + Blush This year short hair has dominated, with women showing no fear in cutting their locks. According to Google data, search for the ‘mixie’ cut (pixie and mullet) has risen by 1,500 percent in recent months, the ‘bixie’ cut (pixie and bob) by 156 percent and ‘French bob’ by 84 percent. However, while the bob is predicted to be huge in 2022, making the chop can be a big decision, especially for those who have long locks.

S
o, what do you do if you miss the versatility that comes with having long hair? Well, the secret is to invest in a set of hair extensions. Here, Nicole Petty, Hair Extension Specialist at Milk + Blush shares her top tips for anyone who’s made the chop but isn’t quite ready to wave goodbye to long-haired life just yet and wants to invest in some extensions. DO YOUR RESEARCH Before committing to a set, consider what type of extension you are going for. For example, clip-in hair extensions are the best option for a quick fix, as they are easy to maintain, clean and take-off, while tape extensions are a more permanent yet natural-looking low-maintenance option. Quality is crucial, too, if you want them to last a bit longer. Synthetic hair might be cheaper and look shinier, but will most-likely get tangled easily and not hold styles or textures. Remy – human hair with the cuticle still intact – which is slightly more expensive, will last a lot longer, blend better and be easier to style. And it’s important to opt for the right length and colour to suit you. Lengths generally range from 12” to 24” inches – with 12” or 16” the recommended for anyone with short-mid length hair. Meanwhile, most suppliers provide a shade matching service, where you send in a picture of your hair in natural light to allow the experts to provide the best match possible. FIT THEM IN PROPERLY To avoid any mishaps, you’ll want to add a thicker set of extensions of 200-280g worth of hair, to transition from shorter to longer hair seamlessly. After fitting your extensions, the section of hair at the nape of the neck will be the most prominent, particularly for those with short,
Fitness & Beauty Update
blunt hairstyles. To avoid the choppy extension look, conceal this shorter, bottom layer of hair by plaiting the hair flat against the nape of your head and, if it’s too short, twist the hair and pin it or tie it into a small bun. You can then begin clipping your first weft to this pinned section and work around the head, section by section. To create a perfect blend and conceal any bluntness, double up on wefts by stacking and layering them on top of each other around your head, no more than two at a time and clipping them to enough hair to hold the weight comfortably.
Finish by adding texture with waves or curls for a seamless blend after you’ve clipped the extensions into your hair. TAKE CARE OF THEM To keep extensions in tip-top condition, brush them regularly using a soft brush, starting from the tips in a downwards motion - never from the top. When it comes to keeping them clean, we advise against washing our clip-in wefts. Instead, use a spray like RemySoft Daily Refresher – the spritz coats the hair in silicone which replenishes them similarly to how your natural hair oils soften your hair.
HEADING
If you do decide to wash them on the odd occasion, use a sulphate free shampoo and avoid scrubbing too hard. Rinse thoroughly before blow drying on low heat or air drying all of the wefts on a flat surface and gently pat away excess moisture from the hair using a microfibre towel. Always make sure you store your extensions in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and that they are completely dry when you put them away - this will prevent any nasty mould or bacteria from growing.

OGX HAIRCARE LAUNCHES CAMPAIGN CALLING ON INDUSTRY TO BAN HARMFUL HAIR LANGUAGE • OGX Haircare has launched a #LifeAffirmingHair campaign to abolish the use of negative hair adjectives which according to new research cause offence to a majority of UK women • The brand is calling on the industry to ban the use of absurd hair words such as Lifeless, Mousy and Wiry, and is petitioning the Oxford English Dictionary to stop the terms being used to define hair • Beauty expert and commentator, Ateh Jewel is supporting the campaign alongside OGX hair stylist, Michael Douglas • The absurd use of these hair words has been brought to life in a thought provoking photo series, released today AS PART OF ITS MISSION TO HELP WOMEN FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEIR HAIR OGX Haircare has launched a #LifeAffirmingHair campaign which aims to abolish the use of negative hair language commonly used in the industry – in fact, the UK’s five leading hair care brands use words that half of UK women find offensive*.
10
It comes after new research by OGX found almost 2 in 3 (65%) UK women have had others make undesirable comments about their hair, leaving them feeling selfconscious and offended. Culpable terms include ‘Lifeless’ (20%), ‘Mousy’ (16%), and ‘Wiry’ (11%).
In an effort to help women embrace their hair’s natural state - no matter what their hair type, look or feel, OGX Haircare is calling on the industry to ban the use of such negative hair words, and for lasting change is petitioning the Oxford English Dictionary to stop the terms being used to define hair. The study of 2,000 British women examined the impact negative language surrounding hair has on self esteem. The results uncovered that some of the worst word offenders currently prevalent in the haircare industry and common vernacular include “drab” (21%), “dishevelled” (16%) and “limp” (15%) with one in ten women (10%) admitting to finding the terms more offensive or upsetting than common swear words. The OGX petition on Change.org calls on the Oxford English Dictionary to help by changing offensive hair definitions and remove derogatory usage examples such as “He always made her feel so plain, with her mousy brown hair and dull gray eyes, her light skin that was so frail it sunburned in little under ten minutes in the heat”. Other absurd and offensive definitions include:
Fitness & Beauty Update
Mousy: “hair of a dull light brown colour” Wiry: ‘‘(of hair, plants, etc.) stiff and strong; like wire’’ Lifeless: “dull; lacking the qualities that make something or someone interesting and full of life e.g. Her hair was lifeless and uncombed’’ Beauty expert and commentator, Ateh Jewel said: “Huge changes and progress has been made in the beauty industry to celebrate diverse skin tones and body shapes, but it’s time to also turn to our attention to replacing negative words with hair affirming ones. Growing up I was told my hair was wild, bush, nappy and unkempt so I know the sting and negative effect it can have on your confidence and self esteem. We need to create more hair inclusivity by empowering people to embrace and celebrate their hair. “ The study also reinforces the link between self-esteem, the media and language. A third of women (36%) want a more positive relationship
with their hair, but are impacted by media and brands using negative words. In fact,17% admit to changing their hair after being made to feel bad about themselves by language used by the hair care industry. Kay Glover, Communications Manager, OGX Haircare commented: “At OGX we’ve long been on a mission to help women untangle the relationship between perfection and their hair. The study demonstrates just how much of an impact negative hair words can have on women and how they perceive themselves. That’s why we’re encouraging the industry and those that influence our use of language, the Oxford English Dictionary, to take a stand and commit to positively embracing all hair types.” OGX hair stylist, Michael Douglas added: “Every hair type is beautiful and we should be encouraging women to embrace their hair’s natural state and make the most of it, rather than trying to overhaul their
Haircare
look due to negative hair words. Hair isn’t wiry, it’s electrifying; it’s not lifeless, it’s smooth and it’s certainly not mousy - it’s mighty.’’ To shine a light on the impact these words can have on how women see themselves, OGX has unveiled a series of striking visual manifestations, demonstrating the reality of what it would look like to have “mousy”, “lifeless” and “wiry” hair, modelled by a line-up of women embracing their unique hair types. The imagery has been released to encourage women to banish the use of these words and embrace the traits that make their natural hair so unique. Women are being called on to challenge the use of these negative hair words by signing the petition at Change.org link, and sharing hair positive images on social media using #LifeAffirmingHair.

Training & Education
Fitness & Beauty Update
HAVE YOU CHANGED YOUR CAREER FOCUS SINCE THE START OF THE PANDEMIC? SOMETHING YOU MAY HAVE STARTED, ALREADY BE TOYING WITH, OR NOT YET EVEN CONSIDERED, IS EDUCATION. Teaching is not for everyone. It takes a very specific skill set to teach. Being exceptional at the subject in hand, does not automatically mean you will succeed in teaching that topic. What qualifications do you need? The first step into becoming an educator is enrolling on a teaching course. I can only advise on UK requirements, so if you are from outside UK you will need to seek the appropriate alternatives. The current minimum qualification for teaching adults is an AET (Award in Education & Training). This a nationally recognised qualification. This has now replaced PTTLS (Preparing to teach in the long-life learning sector), which is the qualification I and many educators hold. This is the starting point for education. As well as the technical abilities, you have an additional skill to continue to develop – your teaching expertise. Once you have obtained your AET or equivalent, you can then progress onto A1 Assessors, CET (CTTLS), DET (DTLLS) which are all dedicated to teaching adults.
Where to do these There are many online classes taught by educator and techs. I would recommend carrying out this class in a
18
college or university to obtain the best standard. There will however be online alternatives during the current climate. They are usually around a 6-12 week course, with attendance required once per week. There will be a number of assignments and a micro-teach to carry out prior to successful completion. Once you have obtained your qualification, you need to decide which teaching avenue you would like to explore.
What next? Depending on the education route you choose to take, you may need to write manuals, create lesson plans and course content, obtain teaching insurance and much more. You also need to consider and tailor how teaching in the nail industry differs to other sectors. This can be completely overwhelming, so I recommend seeking a mentor such as a current educator to help advise and assist on this. We offer an online introduction webinar covering this topic here on the link below: www.katiebarnesacademy.com

Tip 3: Say bye to Dry Skin
Going barefoot brings on cracked heels and dry skin, which is why pedicures are crucial in the summer. How do you get rid of dead skin on your feet, you ask? Exfoliation and buffing offer much-needed relief to these common skin issues and will keep your heels looking perfect for all your backless sandals. We suggest asking your nail tech to focus on your feet and calves when it comes to exfoliation and trying a foot mask for added moisture to combat cracked heels.
Tip 4:
5 Tips for Getting Your BEST Summer Pedicure Tip 1: Over the last few months, we’ve had a lot of time
to reflect on the things we’ve missed, and pedicures definitely top the list. With sandal season here and the news of salons beginning to reopen, we can’t wait to give our feet some much needed TLC, so here are a few tips on how to put your best foot forward this summer, whether you’re doing your own at-home pedicure or stopping by the salon.
You Don’t Have to Match We always get asked if the shade on your toes should match your hands, and we say NO. We’re huge proponents for wearing whatever you want, whenever you want, even if that means five shades on one foot. Don’t be afraid to mix and match when it comes to your summer mani-pedi.
Everyone wants to know what the “it” colours of summer are, and we always say “whatever your heart desires.” However, we’ve seen a growing trend with nudes, pinks, and whites because they are flattering and bright, but bold pops of colour are always a good choice for your summer pedicure. Give your feet a bit of TLC, now is the time to colour them happy! Our faves? Alpine Snow Hue is the Artist? Mod About You Samoan Sand Got Myself into a Jam-balaya
Tip 2: Make Colour Last
Nail lacquer is a good choice for a regular pedi, but if you want to go one step further for your summer pedicure, ask for gel nail polish on your toes. With up to 21 days of wear, you won’t have to think twice about whether or not your feet are sandalready. And if you’re looking for something bright, this formula is available in hundreds of shades.
Tip 5: Up Your Shine
While nail lacquer is a popular choice for pedicures, you can majorly up your shine with Infinite Shine. This polish is a 3-step system featuring a base, color, and top coat that will give you gellike wear (without curing) that’s super glossy. Plus, it offers up to 11 days of chip-free wear, which is much longer than traditional lacquer.

Giving Up Sugar For Lent In 2022 Top Tips For Cutting Out Sugar 1. Stay away from processed foods The amount of sugar added to your favourite convenience foods can be surprising, increasing your consumption without you even knowing. By sticking to fresh foods such as fruit, vegetables, meat and rice, you can have a good understanding of what you are putting into your body and stay on top of your sugar intake.
2. Eat little and often When we are hungry, our bodies naturally start to crave more sugar dense foods. Instead of trying to hold off in between meals, get into the habit of having smaller meals more frequently, changing your usual routine to get your body into a better habit. Try out new recipes and incorporate plenty of proteins into your diet, keeping you energised and fuller for longer.
3. Read the labels Beware of all the products you are consuming, taking the time to read the packaging to find out exactly what you have been eating. In addition to things like natural sugars from fruit and added sugar from processed foods, look into products like supplements, sauces and cereal which can contain unexpectedly high quantities.
4. Remove temptation completely Even if you tuck your sweet treats into the back of a cupboard, having tempting snacks in the house can make your cravings worse. By removing all traces of junk food and replacing them with fresh produce, nuts
28
and whole foods, you can avoid temptation and are forced to tuck into healthier snacks when you are feeling peckish.
5. Get into the habit of meal prepping Often the main reason for convenience eating is not knowing what to cook or not having the right ingredients in the fridge. By planning your meals in advance, not only are you controlling your sugar intake, but you are keeping food waste and expenditure to a minimum. On those days where you’re simply feeling too lazy to spend hours in the kitchen, having plenty of fresh goods at the ready will inspire your next delicious dish.
6. Keep yourself occupied in the evening The post dinner slump is when most of us tend to reach for the sweet treats, looking to relax after a busy day and indulge in our favourite snacks. Mix your daily routine up by filling this space with something else to occupy your mind, whether that be a relaxing bubble bath or a calming meditation session to distract yourself.
7. Stay hydrated As well as the obvious health benefits associated with drinking plenty of water, hydration can help make you feel fresh and fuller for longer. When we are dehydrated, it is common for this to be mistaken for hunger, leaving us on the lookout for extra snacks which we don’t actually need, ironically making us thirstier in the process.

Designed exclusively for C to F cups Designed exclusively for women with bigger busts is Lorna Jane’s newly launched Hold & Mould Sports Bra. A passion project from within the Lorna Jane team, the lightbulb moment of the Hold and Mould Bra came to life after one busty team member (an ECup) expressed her frustration in finding a sports bra that did everything. • She wanted shape, but without unnecessary padding. • She wanted maximum support without shoulder discomfort. • She wanted just the right amount of cleavage coverage. • She wanted minimal bounce, so she could run, jump, and stride. She wanted compression- but the flattering kind. • And she wanted to feel powerful, sexy, and secure whilst wearing it. Doing what any female focussed; leading fashion brand would do…the Lorna Jane team designed, cut, and built the bra around her body and constructed it just for her. What resulted was a sports bra exclusively made for women with large busts, just like her. A bra that will look and feel powerful by itself and under her clothes. A game changer for voluptuous women everywhere. A story of shape retention, comfort, unmatched support, and style, the Hold & Mould bra features: • Engineered with structured cups -that ‘hold and mould’ to support your breasts. • Fixed padding- so no bunching or rolling ever! • Stabilised lining- for less bounce. • Gel padded shoulder straps -for less pressure on your shoulders. • Complete strap adjustability – sliding straps and hooks so you can customize your fit and support • Clasp back – for adjustability and support. • No underwire - for comfort.

Why brow lamination is going to be 2022's biggest brow trend Why brow lamination is going to be 2022's biggest brow trend
Brow lamination is going to be the most popular brow treatment trend in 2022, according to new data, which is why it’s never been a better time to add it to your services. Seen on celebrities such as model Gigi Hadid and singer Dua Lipa, brow lamination has continued to soar in popularity, with more than 2.1 million hash tagged posts on social media platform Instagram this year already, found a new report by aesthetic specialists Vera Clinic. This news isn’t surprising as brow lamination was the most popular beauty trend on fellow social platform TikTok in 2021. Brow lamination is a semi-permanent grooming treatment that creates natural-looking, brushed-up brows in just 30 minutes, and since its launch it has been giving other popular brow 34

Natural brows are predicted to be the second biggest brow look this year based on the analyst of Instagram’s data, with 896,000 hash tagged posts on the platform; while fluffy brows is in third place (517,000 posts) thanks to the brow look being rocked by singer Billie Eilish. Other strong brow looks that look set to make a comeback this year include the straight brow – brows with a minimal arch and a tail that drops at the end in a subtle matter – which has 9.4K posts on Instagram and is being worn by model Cara Delevigne and actress Zendaya; as well as the bold fox brow (1.3K posts) – the technique which pulls brows back into a flat brow – a trend recently spotted on model Kendall Jenner.
