KIRBIE JOHNSON AND SARA TAN
About this episode

Part of this episode is brought to you by JVN Hair.


Happy New Year! We kick things off by exchanging birthday gifts (Capricorns, baby!) and discussing Sara's experience seeing Wicked: The Musical for the first time all the way through. Then, Kirbie quizzes Sara on the top 15 gifts gen Z received for the holidays. What beauty brands made the cut?


We're back with a new WOYF, er, What's in our Hair? JVN Hair treated 150 of our listeners to their new launch, the Revive Rapid Repair Bond Gloss and Shine Treatment. We're breaking down what we love about this product (with some feedback!) and sharing the Glams official reviews, which you can read in full on Sephora.com.


We wrap things up by sharing what 2024 beauty predictions we got correct and what didn't catch fire.
