And now, Lauren Everts and Michael Bostick are bringing you along for the ride. Get ready for some major realness. Welcome to the Skinny Confidential, him and her. Hello, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of the Skinny Confidential, him and her show. Today, we have William Gownitz on the podcast and this one is for anyone that cares about hair. William Gownitz is a world renowned certified trichologist with over two decades of clinical experience, consumer product development, and global conference leadership.
