What K-Beauty Businesses Need to Know About Curly and Coily Hair

Описание: For Black women in Korea and the larger expat community in South Korea, navigating the world of hair care can be a challenge. This video is a vital conversation aimed at increasing cultural understanding and awareness within the Korean community about the unique needs of curly and coily hair.

We dive deep into the essential differences between textured hair and straight hair, explaining why most K-Beauty products fall short (Hint: while protein is amazing, it's really all about moisture and proper ingredients!). This isn't just about products; it's about the everyday struggles with salons, misconceptions, and the mental load of finding the right natural hair care solutions while living abroad.

Join me in educating, advocating, and building a bridge of understanding so that Black expats in Korea feel seen, supported, and welcomed. Understanding Black hair is understanding a culture—and it's a beautiful one.
