6. The Science of Afro Hair and Tips & Tricks

Welcome to the Coiled School of Black Hair Studies! In today’s class, led by Trichologist Ebuni Ajiduah we cover the science behind how afro hair is structured and how this differs from Caucasian hair, the fundamentals of what afro hair needs to be healthy as well as the easiest and simplest wash day routine you can follow. 

We also get a lesson in Black hair hacks from hairstylist Mimi Kone from how to keep your hair moisturized, to how to protect your crown when wearing protective styles. You better take some notes because you’re going to learn today!

If you do anything after listening to this podcast, make sure you share this with a younger, sister, brother, cousin or friend so that we can empower the next generation to fully embrace their natural Black hair because all hair is good hair.
