Why is everything called a hack now? I do tech support. It is common for me to tell people about short cuts. But these are just well know key strokes for people who care to know and they ain’t changing my life.
I just came up to speed with the term hack too. Beauty sites now refer to their tips as “hacks.”
I avoided beauty hacks because I thought they involved painful things. Now I have to use the word hack to talk to other young women about how tos.
Here is an example of a beauty hack.
“Do the Bang Wash
If you want to skip shampooing but don’t want to leave the house with stringy bangs, just wash your bangs. It’s easy: pull the rest of your hair back in a ponytail, wet your hands with a small dime-size amount of conditioner, run it through your fringe, and rinse it out under the faucet. If you have straight hair, it’s probably not necessary to blow-dry, as they’ll air-dry in minutes. If your hair is a little more unruly, quickly blow-dry and style your bangs as you normally would.”
