Have you ever visited a hair salon that was predominantly operated by Asian hairstylists and staff, and felt uncomfortable because of the comments made about your hair pattern and texture?⁠

MY PERSPECTIVE ABOUT API REPRESENTATION IN THE CUR

MY PERSPECTIVE ABOUT API REPRESENTATION IN THE CURLY COMMUNITY IS BASED ON AN AMERICAN LENS.⁠
⁠
I remember reading a random social media post asking why is it that the world revolves around American media, American pop culture, American politics and American influence?⁠
⁠
Given that I’m not a Sociologist, Historian or part of any other profession that would grant me the breadth of knowledge to answer that question, what I can tell you from my observations is that my perspectives are centered around the, dare I say, privileged American lens.⁠
⁠
So tell me, is curly representation lackluster in your cultural community as well? Would you say that there are differences in representation depending on the part of the world you're from?⁠

Have you ever met someone whose company you could soak up every second of whenever they were around, and that feeling of cherishing was as powerful as feeling the emptiness of space whenever they were gone? What an impact to leave on someone.

Excited to announce this quarter's @apicurls Curls

Excited to announce this quarter's @apicurls Curls Club theme: MANE-IFEST CHANGE. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Swipe for the changes I'd like to focus on this year and beyond, including:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
1. My ongoing support for businesses led by, founded by, and funded by BIPOC & other communities inclusive of identities will be more visible and accessible on my platforms⁠⠀
⁠⠀
2. I'll be more vocal about my personal experiences with anti-Black sentiment as well as other related topics and biases that perpetuate stereotypes, racism and other social injustices⁠⠀
⁠⠀
3. I'll continue fostering a community of empowered individuals by developing more content related to CURLS, CONFIDENCE & CAREER through my personal and professional brands⁠⠀
⁠⠀
If you're set on MANE-IFESTING CHANGE this year too, here's how to join this quarter's @apicurls Commit to Your Curls Club theme:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- Share what type of change you'd like to see mane-ifested in the world and how you'll support those ideas. They can be micro or macro ideas. No idea and no initiative is too small for change. It starts with us. Check out the API Curls Club page, stories or highlights for more inspiration. You can even use and expand upon mine!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- Post to your story and feed⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- Tag @APICurls #APICurls⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- Entries will be shared on API Curls stories + feed⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I can't wait to learn about how you'll continue to be a positive contributor to our society and community through the Curls Club!
