Generally, when people think of Arizona Public Service (APS)—the largest electricity provider in the state—they may picture men at the forefront. And while men make up the majority of the employee roster (as of May, 27.4 percent of APS’s 6,000 employees are women), there is a growing number of women employees within the organization … in a variety of roles.

Mackenzie Rodgers, APS Transmission Operations and Maintenance, explained that as an organization, APS supports women in all roles, including leadership … and many opportunities exist that the public—and women in particular—may not expect.

“I’ve worked in many jobs where I’m the only woman on the team or one of many women on the team,” Mackenzie said, “but I have never felt not supported or empowered or mentored to be my best and support other women to be their best as well.”

Every day, our hair is exposed to metal, including lead, copper, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic. Pollutants in the air, hair products and cookware we use, certain foods, our local water, and even drinking from aluminum cans can cause metal to accumulate over time and cause damage, hindering natural hair growth and vitality.

Metals such as lead and copper can disrupt the natural growth cycle, leading to hair loss and thinning. These metals can weaken the hair shaft, causing it to become brittle and prone to breakage. And, the presence of metals can also affect hair color and texture, causing unwanted changes.

That’s where a metal detox comes in. Understanding the significance of metal detoxing in maintaining luscious locks is crucial.

Women view the world through a uniquely feminine lens. The roles we play are often customary and inevitable. Centuries-old barriers continue to squelch our strength, ability, and potential. When we veer from the expected path, criticism can be harsh.
