NC: What is the best thing about being a curly girl?
CH: It’s actually exciting to see the unexpected changes that my hair makes. One day it coils tight, the next day I have loose curls and the next, a foxy and frizzy fro! The diversity of natural hair is beautiful.
NC: How do you think having curly hair impacts your life?
CH: It impacts my everyday life because not everybody that I meet rocks natural hair. People wearing weaves or people who have a perm ALWAYS ask me what I did to have the hair that I have now. I always have one answer: let it grow. It’s crazy how I have been complimented and asked for advice. I feel like a great mentor!
NC: What would you tell others to encourage them to embrace their curls?
CH: Enjoy your hair at all stages. Even if you just chopped it all off, rock it. There is nothing sexier than a confident woman with short hair. It’s beautiful and appealing.
NC: Tell us about your life and what you are up to.
CH: I’m an international student in the States. I will soon finish my degree and travel somewhere else. I’m a traveler at heart and I really enjoy new experiences. I am also a singer and a guitar player. Music is what makes me feel alive.
