  • Emmy Award Winning Stylist Zerina Akers on 40+ Skincare and Starting Over

    Emmy Award Winning Stylist Zerina Akers on 40+ Skincare and Starting Over
    2026/10/12

    You may not know her name, but you've seen Zerina Akers' work. The Emmy Award-winning costume designer and celebrity stylist is best known for her work on Beyoncé's Black Is King. In this conversation, Zerina takes us back to her roots. She remembers growing up between her aunt's strict professionalism and her Panamanian grandmother's early beauty lessons. She shares what interning in the fashion closet taught her about hierarchy, hustle, and never looking idle. She also gives an honest breakdown of how stylists get paid. Brand deals, the emotional labor, and the weeks of unpaid prep behind a single red carpet look may surprise you.


    Zerina is also candid about her own style evolution at 40, including a closet that suddenly feels outdated, a changing body, and the search for a silhouette that feels powerful. She shares her wardrobe organizing system, her ruthless twice-a-year purge, and why she believes in investing in designer pieces with resale value over fast fashion. She also gets personal about her wellness routine, her skincare staples, her ancestral prayer practice, and how she protects her energy.

  • Blakely Thornton on Pop Culture as Sociology, Gay Beauty Standards, and What Makes An It Girl

    Blakely Thornton on Pop Culture as Sociology, Gay Beauty Standards, and What Makes An It Girl
    2026/10/05

    Blakely Thornton is an original. A self-described Pop Culture Anthropologist and Out 100 Honoree, Blakely has built a digital career that uniquely spans comedy, entertainment, and style. On social media, fans flock to him for his honest, no-holds-barred commentary on their favorite topics. Others tune into Yestergays to hear him and his podcast co-host critique fashion and celebrity culture with his signature wit. Celebrities are smitten with him, often tickled by their engagements at red carpet events like the Met Gala and ultra-exclusive gyms. This very public, creative life wasn't what Blakely imagined for himself as an athletic kid growing up in Dallas, Texas. Blakely was a closeted football player at UPenn, majoring in finance and hoping to follow in his parents' footsteps into a respectable, stable career. Headed towards a traditionally corporate career, Blakely worked at Ralph Lauren and pursued the corporate finance life until he didn’t.

    Eventually, Blakely decided that he wouldn’t spend another twenty years as anything other than his full self, and it has paid off. Instead of trying to find ways to inject creativity into a 9-5, Blakely leverages his taste and honesty into a living. During our conversation, we cover everything pop culture, from GLP1s to what makes an It Girl to how much attention Zendaya is actually generating for films and fashion houses. We cover the other side of being very popular online, like the mean comments on Reddit, being seen only as a product, and being expected to carry the emotional weight of a fanbase. Blakely is open about the mental and emotional safeguards he needs to manage the opinions of hundreds of thousands of fans, and why he turns to working out to maintain his peace of mind. We also chat about misogynistic beauty standards, how he makes friends with so many celebrities, and why Heated Rivalry was so impactful.

  • The Truth About Hair Restoration, Growth Supplements & Protective Styles ft. Trichologist Ashley Zsaton

    The Truth About Hair Restoration, Growth Supplements & Protective Styles ft. Trichologist Ashley Zsaton
    2026/09/28
    Ashley Zsaton, DNP, ACNP-AG, learned about hair politics early. Growing up biracial in Milwaukee, she wasn’t always accepted for wearing her natural curls. Her search to understand what people meant by "good" and "bad" hair led her to become a board-certified nurse practitioner and hair loss specialist. As co-founder of the Hollywood Hair Institute, California’s preeminent hair transplant & aesthetic treatment center, Dr. Zsaton established herself as a leading hair restoration specialist and trichologist. Her medical background also includes supporting patients in critical conditions in the ICU and in ophthalmology, where her research led to the national publication of a school-based vision screening program. But before she began her medical career, she was trying to develop a healthy relationship with her own hair. A move to the Dominican Republic opened her eyes to the incredible beauty and versatility of naturally curly hair. In the Dominican Republic, Dr. Zsaton was exposed to a country filled with curly hair styled and cared for in all manner of styles. She brought this newfound passion for hair back to the States, and when she decided to pursue a career in medicine, her husband encouraged her to follow her interest in scalp care towards medical aesthetics. Fast forward to now, and Dr. Zsaton is changing lives by helping people access the hair restoration treatments that are best for them. During our conversation, we discussed every hair restoration treatment from PRP to Follicular Unit Extraction to Minoxidil. Dr. Zsaton walked us through what a good surgical candidate profile looks like, and which alternatives may be a better fit for her patients. In fact, Brooke walked us through the exact routine Dr. Zsaton prepared for her and detailed how effective each product has been in growing her hair. Dr. Zsaton doesn’t hold back when it comes to telling us which hairstyles may be causing the most damage, for men and women, and which products aren’t doing anything helpful at all. She gives us a peek into the aesthetic innovations she’s explored in Turkey and Korea that she’d like to offer her patients here in the States. Dr. Zsaton offered an unfiltered, honest look at the limits and possibilities of hair restoration.Tune in as we discuss:(0:00) Welcome Ashley Zsaton, DNP, ACNP-AG(1:45) Scalp Care's Rising Popularity(3:00) How Good Hair vs. Bad Hair Conversations Impacted Her(3:30) Her Hair Health Journey(3:45) How the Dominican Republic Inspired Her Natural Hair Journey(4:00) What Inspired Her Medical Career(5:40) Defining Hair Terminology(8:30) Which Hairstyles May Cause Hair Loss(9:00) What To Do When Your Braids Are Too Tight(11:40) Differences In Types of Hair Transplants(15:00) Determining Hair Transplant Candidacy(17:10) How Iron Impacts Hair Thickness(19:25) Determining PRP Candidacy(22:25) Why Minoxidil Is Underrated(24:00) Why Ashley Hates Biotin(25:25) Hair Loss Starts Earlier Than We Think(27:24) Which Hair Conditions Cannot Be Fixed(30:20) Tips For Men With Hairline Concerns(32:00) Brooke's Full Hair Restoration Protocol(39:30) Why Keratin Treatments Can Be A Good Solution(43:43) Aesthetic Innovations in Turkey & Korea(47:15) Ashley's Haircare Regimen(49:40) Caring For Healthy Bleached Hair(52:00) When Ashley Feels the Most BeautifulRate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on AppleJoin the Naked Beauty Community on IG: @nakedbeautyplanetThanks for all the love and support.
