Hey guys! My name is Char.
I currently live in Washington, DC, from Pittsburgh, PA. I’m in my senior year studying Sports Medicine at Howard University. I also find joy in modeling and establishing my brand. I’ve been embracing my natural hair all of my life, and my curly hair full-time for a year now. My hair was so damaged from constantly putting heat and color in it that I decided to cut out the heat and become a curly girl, and I’m so glad I did.
My style: Beauty in simplicity.
I like to keep it simple with my style, mostly solid colors or minimal patterned outfits. Natural looking, clean face makeup. Rarely wear jewelry…not even earrings! (Although, I do wear my favorite watch on occasion”>. My definition of beauty is doing what you’re passionate about, being the person you want to be, and living life with love and not hatred. When I see those attributes in a person, I see beauty. I am confident in knowing that whatever project I am working on, I will do it to my best ability.
If I have the passion, then I have the confidence.
My daily curly hair routine
My daily routine consists of showering, of course! I start with washing my hair–by wash I mean just condition–with Carol’s Daughter Black Vanilla Conditioner. I do not use shampoo, whatsoever. I’ll let the conditioner sit in my hair as I continue with my shower, then detangle with a wide tooth comb.
Next, I wash most of the conditioner out, only leaving a little left in. I finish off with Eco Styler Gel and jojoba oil and let air dry. I’ll use a pick at the roots or I’ll blow dry my hair on cool air if I want added volume. I then do my makeup, get dressed, and start my day.
At night, I do not do anything special with my hair, I’ll usually just sleep on it as is–I love the volume it gives me for 2nd/3rd day hair.

I want to be my own boss.
Successful, traveling, doing new and exciting things. I see myself owning a company; I want to be my own boss and I do not want to work for anyone else. I cannot tell you exactly what I envision myself doing. I have many avenues that I’m interested in taking, so it will be cool to find out what I end up doing/expanding to in 10 years. Hopefully you guys will follow me on my journey!
