TikTok Trends! HairTok, NYC Content, Stitches and more!
Summer is slowly coming to an end, and with Labor Day upon us Dena and Catalina open up with @astoldbyginger’s discussion of ending the summer “FTB.” In the algorithm segment Catalina realizes she is fully on the hair side of the app, discussing videos by @styledbychanning and @chandlertate1109 and the girls chat about creator @leahbarzz’s attempt to get a discussion going via stitches about “Saturday Scaries.” Dena shares a video she was served about taking a helicopter to the airport @kevindroniak, and the transportation theme continues with creator @msbrijanai’s account of her experience taking the driver-less Waymo car to work. The girls also discuss (and firmly disagree) with @yevit’s supposition that there’s no better feeling than being a freshman at NYU, and Dena recaps some more New York content including unfortunate coverage of a water main break (@stopitparis) and the day in the life of a US Open Ball Girl (@schrodingersbrat). Stitches are on trend, from @meolah’s request to know what girls in Wisconsin are up to (answered by @ms.newb00ty and @autumnacord, and @lblikes’s discussion of unfortunate graphic design decisions, with an amazing response by @lisarachnid. Their content creator of the week is @amandamccants, Dena speculates that Jay-Z will join TikTok, and Catalina reflects on a tomato cocktail featured on one of her favorite food creator accounts, @babytamago. Learning on TikTok includes an unexpected way to rid oneself of gas (@fumptruck and @sheabuttermother) and they close the episode with a conversation about what Dena wears to work, inspired by a video by @seenbyluna.
