Hairstylists and colorists agree that plucking is a bad idea. “Please don’t pull out gray hair that is bothering you. It is better to have hair to color than hair that is thinning due to destroying the root by yanking it out,” says Marie Leppard, a senior colorist at Julien Farel Restore Salon & Spa in New York. Plus, plucking that gray hair isn’t going to change anything. The hair follicle is still there and producing hairs. Yank out that gray hair and another one is just going to grow back in its place.

As Holi celebrations took root in Germany in recent years, Katrin Bossmann and colleagues of the German Federal Environment Agency tested four Holi powders to understand their particles better (J. Occup. Med. Toxicol. 2016, DOI: 10.1186/s12995-016-0130-9). “When you throw the powder in the air it comes down very slowly, and it looks very nice,” Bossmann says. But this is an indication that it might have high concentrations of particles under 10 µm, one regulatory threshold below which lung penetration and health effects become a concern. Indeed, the team’s study showed that 40–80% of the particles in the four powders it tested had diameters under 10 µm. The particles also triggered inflammatory responses in cell culture.
