October's episode of Curly and Confident is finally here!
In this episode, we dive deep into the world of curls with best friends and hair stylists who share their personal stories and expert tips. Together, we explore the journey of embracing your curls from a young age and the impact of having a curly hair best friend and accountability partner by your side. We also celebrate nostalgic 90s hair accessories and talk about the ever-present backhanded compliments that curly-haired individuals encounter.
Our conversation takes a meaningful turn as we discuss race and hair, touching on the unique challenges that come with navigating curly hair across different cultures. We also ask an important question: What’s the next step in building a stronger, more connected curly hair community?
From addressing the gaps in curly hair education to practical advice on maintaining healthy curls with the 80% water, 20% product rule, this episode is packed with insights. Plus, Isabel and Kirby share their favorite techniques to work products into curls for maximum impact.
Whether you’re a lifelong curly enthusiast or just beginning your curl journey, this episode is for you. Let’s continue celebrating our curls and nurturing this incredible community together!
