NC: What is the best thing about being curly?
AC: I love how unique my hair is. It is a look that is hard to achieve using heat and other tools. Although it takes a lot of time to work with my hair, it handles styling well.
NC: Does having curly hair affect your everyday life?
AC: Having curly hair has simplified my life. I roll out of bed with hair I am comfortable and confidence with. I never use a brush, so that is one less thing to do in the morning!
NC: What would you tell others to encourage them to embrace their curls?
AC: Don’t try to fight them! Experiment with various hairstyles, daily routines and products until you feel confident with your appearance when you leave in the morning. Also, never fear asking others for advice — I have had random people in the grocery store ask what I do for my hair!
NC: Tell us about your current and upcoming projects. Tell us about your life and what you are up to!
AC: I work as a marketing director for a start-up company called Jebbit. I am very passionate about business, and I also allot time to service groups on campus.
