Imani Brooks

Beauty editor · Atlanta, Georgia

Imani trained as a salon apprentice before switching to writing, and spent six years on the beauty desk of a national women's magazine. She tests products for weeks, not days, and is more interested in what dermatologists and stylists use on themselves than in what launches this month.

Beat: Skincare, hair, fragrance and the tools behind them — with a bias towards evidence over hype.

Opinion pieces under this byline are drafted with AI assistance from reporting by tier-1 US outlets and reviewed by addictiveposts editors. Sources are linked in every story.
