An extraordinary document emerged from the 2024 Republican presidential race this week, and it isn't getting enough attention. It's a memo from the super PAC supporting Tim Scott, the GOP senator who was once seen as a promising contender but has recently slipped in polls both nationally and in early primary states. Scott is now in seventh place in the RealClear-Politics average of national polls.
DEAR HARRIETTE: I have been going to the same hair stylist for over a year. She does amazing work on my hair, and I have no interest in finding a new stylist anytime soon. However, every time I am around her, I cannot help but notice her bad body odor. It has become so bad that I find myself holding my breath at certain points during the session. She had to be on set with me for a photoshoot recently, and I know the other people in the room could smell her. I don't want to hurt her feelings or embarrass her, but at the same time, I cannot ignore this any longer. What should I do? — Sensitive to Smells DEAR SENSITIVE TO SMELLS: While it will feel awkward in the moment, telling your friend about her body odor is actually a gift to her. There's no way that you are the first person who has noticed her odor. If she is unable to check it, she may at best lose clients and at worst lose her job. When you do hair, you stand in close proximity to others all day long. Personal hygiene is paramount, especially in roles that bring people into each other's intimate space.

DEAR HARRIETTE: I deleted all of my social media accounts a month ago. I thought that I would get a lot of text messages from my friends asking what was going on or why I deleted everything. To my surprise, only a few of my close friends seemed to have noticed, and nobody else reached out to me at all.
