KNOW YOUR STYLE FOR MEN
First of all, the type of wax to use would depend on your hair length.
1) Spike Wax
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1648696511/unsigned/iei90idnbes6jdcirdab.png" />
&nbsp;
For someone with short hair, you know the struggles of choosing the right fit with the hair. The Spike Wax would be perfect for you if you like to quickly style up effortlessly.
The wax is easy to shape for many people and provides a perfect hold. If you&rsquo;re not one to like a shiny look, you&rsquo;ll like the finish of it. Plus, it also gives an airy feel to your hair when you style it. 
2) Air Jelly
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1648696546/unsigned/ftcgglnejyl3dnnw2lpx.png" />
&nbsp;
Air Jelly is suitable for those with short to medium long hair. In retrospect, this wax can fit almost every occasion out there whether it be a day out with friends to the occasional suit and tie look.
The jelly feel helps to style hair upwards and has a high-shine finish. If you&rsquo;re one to be concerned about volume, this will provide the right amount of volume and has the perfect hold.
3) Messy Fudge
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1648696577/unsigned/jgz1xoyqy1yq5vtyr7cu.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Perhaps you have wavy hair and generally like a bit of that messy look? With messy fudge, you can take your bed hair out but with style.
<img src="https://c.tenor.com/zw3HbJhMh0QAAAAd/polarbearjer-waking-up.gif" alt="Polarbearjer Waking Up GIF - Polarbearjer Waking Up Bedhead GIFs" />
If you often feel comfortable wearing oversized clothes and sweatpants out, all you need now is the hair to match the look. The fudge gives you a medium shine to your hair and provides ease in shaping your hair.&nbsp;
4) 3D Matt Clay
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1648696648/unsigned/apgbx4vjninrknqsdsag.jpg" />
&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re a bit of a rugged and rough of the edge kinda guy, you can give the 3D Matt Clay a go as it gives you an effortless shape and still can make your hair look tame.
One thing about this product is it gives a tight finish. The shine level for this is on a matte style of level so it doesn't shine bright if you&rsquo;re under the sun.&nbsp; The hair is suitable for going out day to day and even if you&rsquo;re suiting up. 
5) Pomade
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1648696683/unsigned/ctie6ad0gcwl7cajki2v.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Ever wished that your hair looked like Alex Turner from Arctic Monkeys?
The pomade hair helps to give a slick upwards look with a tight finish. The volume of it peaks up at the crown of the hair and it will give you a full-on bright shine and all you need now is a nice leather jacket and perhaps a cafe racer bike for you to cruise around with.

Style Your Personal Brand Image Via Your Mobile - Without - Touching Your Hair! #themensplaybook #ubermen #OnlyForTheConfident

Fashion can be a pretty confusing thing to many as there&rsquo;s people out there who dress to impress and also people who like to keep it simple.

Okay to be fair, Zuckerberg&rsquo;s shirts do cost between $300 - $400 but you get what I mean.
&nbsp;
Recently, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob had made headlines all over the place. One of them being him receiving a degree from Nihon University, Japan.
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/1282/pm-ismail-sabri-called-out-as-mqa-doesnt-recognise-his-awarded-honorary-medical-degree">PM Ismail Sabri 'Called Out' As MQA Doesn&rsquo;t Recognise His Awarded Honorary Medical Degree</a>
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653626859/unsigned/nyzans4dq0udafs0d9ru.png" />
&nbsp;
This time around, he&rsquo;s been criticized for his fashion sense for not wearing a batik shirt during his meeting with the Prime Minister of Singapore HE Lee Hsien Loong. He had posted on his Facebook stating that the two had met to discuss a retreat for the leaders for both counties in Singapore, either in late September or in early October.
Initially, netizens figured that the shirt worn was a collection from one from of the brands by his son-in-law but how were they wrong. He was wearing something way more expensive which was a RM5,500 Burberry shirt.
<img src="https://media1.giphy.com/media/zrmTqopWm4W5cPg8Ah/giphy.gif?cid=ecf05e47hqwlfxc26jyhup3d47121eajl61rcn8oezjodex9&amp;rid=giphy.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Season 4 What GIF by The Office" />
&nbsp;
All eyes were on the shirt as some couldn&rsquo;t believe how expensive it was. I mean, its Burberry, I expect no less from someone to pay that amount for a shirt.
So, why is it so expensive?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653626943/unsigned/rr43tp2je29go9uyrrpi.jpg" />
&nbsp;
For starters, it is coming from a designer brand. The shirt is made in Italy, and it&rsquo;s woven from Italian cotton and also has mother-of-pearl buttons.

Here are some of the comments about his shirt:

Fun fact, the latest season of Stranger Things drops today! You can tune to the new episodes on Netflix. 
Well, I don&rsquo;t blame the man for wearing a shirt that expensive. But it would have been nicer if he put some Malaysian pride into the clothing he wears when meeting with other international leaders despite it being formal or casual.

I don’t know what’s worse, him not wearing a Batik or the fact that he didn’t even iron his shirt…

PM Ismail Sabri Criticized For RM5,500 Burberry T-Shirt

Kanye West or Ye (yes, he legally changed his name to Ye&hellip;) is no stranger to many out there. From his popular music, his Adidas Yeezy shoes to even him marrying American socialite Kim Kardashian.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653540522/unsigned/mq3q2hocgzgvuqqsdg2h.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Let&rsquo;s rewind a bit to the 2022 Super Bowl LVI where Kanye had been featured in a McDonalds ad and everyone can&rsquo;t forget the well known &ldquo;Can I Get Uhhhhhhh&rdquo; playing the whole way through.
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JzNoXpF6OcU" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&nbsp;
This was only a small hint of what was coming up for Kanye and the famous fast-food brand and it looks like we can finally get that &ldquo;uhhhhhhh&rdquo;!
Kanye x Naoto Fukasawa
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653540555/unsigned/zb1rlojnhtpkkjktwy2n.png" />
&nbsp;
He&rsquo;s finally taken to Instagram to announce his collaboration with industrial designer Naoto Fukasawa as they would be &ldquo;redesigning&rdquo; McDonald&rsquo;s packaging.
If you don&rsquo;t know who Naoto Fukasawa is, he&rsquo;s the man behind the product designs with Japanese retailer company MUJI.
Previously, Kanye had been banned from Instagram as he had violated the platforms policies on hate speech and harassment and bullying but he&rsquo;s finally back.

By the looks of it, the box is designed to resemble a crammed sandwich in a tight space. Funny enough, the box is just as realistic looking like the burgers.

His Instagram story featured a post with the words &ldquo;next week it&rsquo;s the fries&rdquo; which is referenced to his 2005 track Gold Digger as he rapped This week he moppin' floors, next week it's the fries.'
But so far, there&rsquo;s no official statement coming from McDonalds, and we&rsquo;ll have to further wait on what will come on in the future.
A big week for new music

This Friday (27 May) we&rsquo;ll also get the release of Donda 2 single &ldquo;True Love&rdquo; which features vocals from the late XXXTentacion. So far, it&rsquo;s still unclear if the song is a rework from the version that Stem Player owners are used. Regardless, the song will be featured in X&rsquo;s Look At Me: The Album with the song also featuring in the end credits of the documentary of him which focuses on his career.
Muji is known to have very minimalist designs so its going to be interesting on how the McDonald&rsquo;s designs will look. Not going to lie, I&rsquo;m all down for something minimalist.
Not to forget, new music is also great. I&rsquo;m sure many would look forward to Donda 2 especially since it has vocals from XXXTentacion. &nbsp;

Kanye X Naoto Fukasawa: Reimagine McDonalds Packaging 

Prime Ministers are normally some of the busiest people out there as they constantly need to travel from state to state for official events or even travel to other countries for diplomatic relationships.

&nbsp;
Recently, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri had flew for a trip to Japan for 6 days to meet Japan&rsquo;s Prime Minister, Fumio Kishida and to hold several meetings with corporate leaders and businessmen to draw further investments to Malaysia.
Apart from that, he was also recently awarded the Honorary Doctorate in Medicine by Nihon University.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653533973/unsigned/c6nqxqgkjji8yfpiolmc.webp" />
&nbsp;
The degree was awarded in appreciation of Ismail Sabri&rsquo;s efforts and contributions in the fight against Covid-19 and Nihon University is considered one of the most distinguished and oldest private universities in Japan.
The honorary doctorate was awarded by university president Dr Naoto Kato at the Itabashi campus in Tokyo which is within the compound of the university&rsquo;s hospital.
Dedicated the award to the entire Keluarga Malaysia 
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653534135/unsigned/h2loqyvrbw20fvmpcwbh.jpg" />
&nbsp;
"Indeed, the award is a great recognition not only for me but for the entire Keluarga Malaysia who have proven our ability to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic in our own way," he said.
Additionally, he also mentioned that Malaysia is also recognised by several international agencies. Two of them being Bloomberg and Nikkei who dubbed Malaysia the top 5 nations in the world to have succeeded in controlling the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
The efforts of Ismail Sabri had significantly contributed to the building of trust in international medical collaboration and improvement of technology in remote diagnosis and treatment as well as functional training said Kato.
Degree not recognized by the Malaysia Qualification Agency (MQA)

While some congratulate him, a netizen had called him out for receiving a degree that&rsquo;s not recognised by the MQA.

The netizen explained that even a university such as Universiti Malaysia Pahang who are infamous for its black magic kit, is in the QS Top Universities ranking but not Nihon University. For the fun of it, netizens also poked around stating Rosmah&rsquo;s honorary doctorate from Curtin University (ranked 217th in the world) is also recognized by MQA.
The funniest comment in all this would be the irony of Malaysians not recognizing the current government too.

Who knows, maybe the MQA list is not updated, or the University isn&rsquo;t added into the list yet. 
Emphasizing the word yet cause there&rsquo;s a chance it will eventually update to suit and cater our Prime Minister.

PM Ismail Sabri 'Called Out' As MQA Doesn’t Recognise His Awarded Honorary Medical Degree

Collecting sneakers is one of the more expensive hobbies out there as many would like to chase the hype of owning the freshest kicks.
But one question that sets the bar is, how much would you really pay for a pair of sneakers?
<img src="https://c.tenor.com/hbXArWrJ3CEAAAAC/new-shoes-nice.gif" />
&nbsp;
Recently, luxury fashion brand Balenciaga had unveiled their &ldquo;Paris Sneaker&rdquo; collection which features some limited edition of their high-top sneakers. The price is set at S$2,590 (~RM8261.33) each which sounds reasonable considering it&rsquo;s Balenciaga.
But the shoes feature a design that&rsquo;s &ldquo;fully destroyed&rdquo; and some with a distressed canvas and rough edges around it making it look pre-worn.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653035552/unsigned/v6vi3uwxfbhsehlxnxqz.png" />
&nbsp;
Now these ones up here are the rough edges and pre-worn looking sneakers.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653035560/unsigned/j9mjzp4yro5wmhfthota.png" />
&nbsp;
The &ldquo;extra destroyed&rdquo; shoes are one real ones in question. They quite literally look like they were pulled out of the trash and was abandoned somewhere for years as it features extremely worn and scuffed materials, worn marks and dirtied.
Now why would someone do this&hellip; or is this a sign of Balenciaga calling out the French for being very dirty?
Currently, Balenciaga says that the extra destroyed sneakers will have only 100 pairs and is available on their website in either black or white.
&ldquo;Worn for a lifetime&rdquo;
The French designer company explains that the limited-edition shoes and more specifically the &ldquo;extra destroyed&rdquo; ones suggest that the sneakers were meant to be worn for a lifetime.
Unfortunately, despite their efforts, it seems like they received more backlash than support from consumers worldwide. Yeah, no one wants to pay that much for a shoe that&rsquo;s looks like that. In fact, you could probably look better in a worn-out pair of converse instead.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653035601/unsigned/joqaffqp2xg1lerdcpqv.jpg" alt="See, even if beaten up, they still look good and hold its shape." width="500" height="333" /> See, even if beaten up, they still look good and hold its shape.
&nbsp;
Here are some of the comments from netizens about the beaten-up shoes:
As quoted by my senior editor, &ldquo;The shoe looks like s***&rdquo;. Yep. He&rsquo;s not wrong.

Heavy criticism from the Chinese consumer market
It&rsquo;s no stranger that the brand had sparked anger among Chinese consumers. Recently they had over 2 million consumers voicing their criticism over Weibo and saying the shoe is too ugly and said it shows how the wealthy can be insensitive and tone-deaf.
<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/DzdyJk6P3FE" width="378" height="671" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Back in 2018, the brand was boycotted by many after a staff had roughly manhandled a Chinese tourist at a Balenciaga outlet in Printemps department store in Paris. In 2020, they received more backlash after having launched a series of bags for Chinese Valentine&rsquo;s Day where many say it was gaudy and insulting.
Well, I&rsquo;m no shoe collector (at least for those expensive hyped-up shoes) but I do love getting new pairs to use and rotate them occasionally. Even if I had the money, I wouldn&rsquo;t bother getting these shoes cause it seriously just doesn&rsquo;t justify the price.

RM8,261 For A Pair Of Extremely Trashed Balenciaga Shoes? Count Me Out.

Tired of slow internet or maybe your own area doesn&rsquo;t provide the selected internet coverage you need?

Well, it looks like Malaysians will have something to look forward to as SpaceX had recently noted that their Starlink satellite Internet service in will be available in 32 different countries throughout the world in 2023. One of them being Malaysia!
Initially the internet service belonging to Elon Musk is supposed to be available here in 2022. In a post by Lowyat, they had enquired with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) if SpaceX had obtained the necessary regulatory operation approvals in Malaysia but had never got a response.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653015681/unsigned/ewofsi7sjgyivg5jd056.webp" />
&nbsp;
Just as most Malaysians were wondering about Starlink, Azmin Ali who is the Minister of International Trade had tweeted about the government&rsquo;s view on Starlink.
You can read the thread below:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Today, I had the opportunity to tour the <a href="https://twitter.com/SpaceX?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SpaceX</a> facility during my meeting with the Starlink team, Mr. Andrew Matlock, Mr. Jonathan Hofeller, Mr. Samuel (Chad) Gibbs and Ms Rebecca Hunter. <a href="https://t.co/Fe0M2Dza3K">pic.twitter.com/Fe0M2Dza3K</a>
&mdash; Mohamed Azmin Ali 🇲🇾 (@AzminAli) <a href="https://twitter.com/AzminAli/status/1527076398766075905?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 18, 2022</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&nbsp;
He is currently in the United States as he is on a trade talk tour where he&rsquo;s met representatives from Amazon and even Microsoft. As he goes to meet SpaceX, he was greeted by Andrew Matlock who is the Director of Commercial Sales alongside Jonathan Hofeller and Samuel Gibbs IV who are the Vice Presidents at Starlink.
Now accepting orders from Malaysia
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653015707/unsigned/pnk7prsalevierdmhrf4.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Even before it&rsquo;s officially launched, those interested can already reserve their Starlink by placing a deposit of USD99 (~RM435) and it will be fulfilled on a first-come, first-served basis. The system will work as long as the area is within its satellite coverage and will require a Network Facility or Service Provider license (NFP/NSP) from the MCMC.
So, how much is it?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653015743/unsigned/rzmjlbrycrbwppff6oq3.jpg" />
&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re looking forward to Starlink, it&rsquo;s going to cost you quite a bit as the price had recently increased. The hardware alone cost USD599 (~RM2,638) and the monthly subscription fee cost USD110 (~RM485).
For the price, its expected that you&rsquo;ll get between 100 to 200 Mbps with latency as low as 20ms in most locations. This is possible thanks to their low orbit earth (LEO) satellites which revolves around at a much lower altitude compared to geostationary satellites.
All honesty, this is much better than the current ConnectMe satellite service by MEASAT. It does provide 100% coverage around Malaysia but has download speeds up to 30Mbps and a high ping of 500ms.
Is Starlink worth it?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653015789/unsigned/of4ysdugumehgmgl8igl.jpg" />
&nbsp;
In my own personal opinion, only if you&rsquo;re in a more rural area where internet access can be limited, then yes, it would be worth the price, but you would probably want to share the cost among a few people, so it doesn&rsquo;t put a hole in your wallet.
But if you&rsquo;re still in the city like most of us, it would still make more sense to subscribe to the normal fibre packages from Maxis, Time or even Unifi as it is more cost effective and can provide higher speeds.
