Zendaya may be one of Hollywood’s biggest style and beauty influences, but she is not embracing every wellness fad. The actress is being linked to a firm no on cold plunges, a trend that has become popular across celebrity culture, fitness circles and social media wellness routines.

The discussion has grown because an expert cited in the report says women’s bodies can react differently to this kind of biohack than men’s. That distinction matters in a trend often promoted with broad claims about energy, recovery and resilience, even though physical responses are not always the same for everyone.

For women, the debate is less about whether cold plunges are universally good or bad and more about whether the trend is being oversold. A viral routine that works for some people may not fit another person’s body, health needs or comfort level, especially when sex-based differences are part of the conversation.

Zendaya’s apparent refusal to follow the cold plunge craze highlights a wider point about celebrity wellness habits: skipping a trend can be just as sensible as trying one. As more biohacks go mainstream, women are being reminded to look past hype and consider how their own bodies may respond.
