Whoever got this tattoo must be a true Belieber. Justin Bieber is the original YouTube sensation; recordings of the once-innocent teen covering pop songs at home got him noticed and based on the popularity of his videos he landed himself a huge recording contract. Seemingly overnight, he was the biggest solo singer in the entire world. The crazy level of fan attention he got verged on hysteria at times and getting a tattoo of him definitely sits at the 'normal' end of the scale compared to what some have done to get his attention.
Bieber seemed to be developing a 'bad boy' reputation two or three years ago, although he appears to have calmed down again now, and he's started working with artists like Ed Sheeran to release songs that win him as much critical acclaim as they do from his screaming fans. This tattoo captures him in a more pensive, innocent phase; although he seems to have borrowed his hair from Elvis.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
