Is ‘office air’ to blame for your limp hair and spotty, flaky skin? | Antiviral

The article discusses how the office environment can negatively impact the appearance of hair and skin. Air conditioning, heating, and poor ventilation in the office can contribute to drier skin and greasier hair. Additionally, the commute to work may also play a role in this phenomenon. The article suggests that this rapid deterioration of one's appearance is not just a natural consequence, but may be attributed to the modern office environment. The article references 17th-century vanitas paintings, which served as reminders of the transient nature of earthly things, and draws a parallel to the shock people experience when they see their reflection in the office mirror, which has deteriorated since their morning grooming.
