Brianna Lakin on Grit, Hair Extensions and What No One Tells You About Hair Loss

Descripción

Brianna Lakin [https://instagram.com/briannaofsilqcollective] didn't take the easy road. She took the only one she could find. At 18 years old, homeless and abandoned by her father mid-cosmetology school, she made a choice: finish anyway. Sneaking onto trains, working jobs that didn't pay and rebuilding from nothing, Brianna's story is one of grit, reinvention and finding your calling through the hardest moments. Now based in Las Vegas and specializing in luxury hair extensions at Silq Collective, Brianna is building something bigger than a clientele. She's building a community. In this episode she talks about what it really takes to grow a following on TikTok without before and afters, the connection between nutrition and hair loss, why GLP-1 medications like Ozempic are affecting your hair and what every woman should know about protein and hair health. A conversation about resilience, artistry and what it means to bet on yourself.

Perimenopause, Estrogen Decline & Skin Aging Explained with Nurse Niki

Most women don't connect what's happening to their skin with what's happening to their hormones but they should. In this episode of The Beauty Vault Podcast, host Marie Matteucci sits down with Nurse Niki Capobianco, a board-certified nurse practitioner specializing in hormone health, functional medicine, aesthetics, and women's wellness, for one of the most honest and clinically grounded conversations about perimenopause and aging that we've had on this show. Nurse Niki breaks down exactly why estrogen decline drives jowling, skin laxity and dryness and why waiting until your period stops to address it is too late. She explains the often-overlooked role of progesterone, why so many women in their 30s and 40s are suddenly experiencing jawline acne they never had as teenagers, and what the connection between oral birth control and hormonal chaos really looks like when women come off the pill. From bio-stimulant injectables like Radiesse and Sculptra, to laser treatments like HALO and Broadband Light (including a 10-year clinical study with results that are hard to believe), to medical-grade skincare, to mobile IV therapy. Nurse Niki walks through the full-spectrum approach she uses with her patients at The Look Med Spa in Las Vegas. She also shares the story of a patient who came in for a lip treatment and left six months later with reversed pre-diabetes markers, improved cholesterol and a visceral fat index cut nearly in half.
