I remember being a kid in the 90’s and while watching some of my favorite shows like Saved by the Bell, The Cosby Show and Full House. If you grew up in the 80’s or 90’s you are familiar with the fact that wearing your hair curly back then usually meant a big frizzy mess. Looking back, I am rather...
When she first started working with Jonathan Torch at the Curly Hair Institute 16 years ago, Hiwot had (gasp!) straight hair! Of course now she rocks her lovely Ethiopian curls that reflect her creative open-mindedness. I had the chance to sit and exchange some gossip with this quiet, easy going curl expert, who loves to dabble in hair color whenever...

There’s a scene where he’s in a lab with a so-called “chemical genius” who demonstrates the effects of sodium hydroxide, the active ingredient in chemical relaxers. Sodium hydroxide burned through a...

It took me a long time to figure out how to style my curls and learn curly hair care. When I was young, my mom would brush them out. It was a cute look for a seven-year old with two high fluffs of pigtails – but not so cute for a tall, lanky four-eyed 14 year old! Thankfully, I’ve come a...
Personally I am a huge fan of the diffuser. It’s this ingenious life saving device that you attach to the end of your blow dryer nozzle and its purpose is to speed up the drying process if you don’t have 7 hours to air dry your curls!
