The Beauty Industry Has Failed Textured Hair. We're Fixing That.

For decades, beauty education left massive gaps. Professionals graduated unprepared to serve diverse clientele. Schools taught outdated curriculum. Brands marketed products that didn't work. And consumers were left frustrated, confused, and underserved.

Curlology exists to change this reality.

We don't just talk about inclusion: we build it through comprehensive education, honest product evaluation, and genuine partnerships that create systemic change.

  • "By far one of the favorite classes l've taken."

    This was by far one of the favorite classes l've taken so far, full of information on cutting and coloring curly hair! I also had the opportunity to work with Innersense's new and clean color line, Color Purity. Coming together with other creatives to learn-and to learn from such a great group of educators-always has me coming back to work feeling energized and excited to implement new.

  • "It was magic."

    Getting to learn alongside such wildly talented, thoughtful, and intentional hairdressers was a gift I won't soon forget. Each of you inspired me in a different way! Your passion, your mentorships, your vision - it was magic.

Built From Lived Experience

I remember sitting in salon chairs, watching stylists hesitate the moment they saw my coils. The rough handling. The products that didn’t work. The quiet shame of wondering if my hair was just… difficult.

Later, when I became a professional myself, I realized the problem was never my hair. It was the system.

Stylists weren’t trained properly. Products weren’t tested for our textures. Schools taught outdated theory with little to no practice. The entire industry failed me —and millions of others— not just one part.

So I built Curlology to change that.

  • Educate professionals who never got the training they deserved.

  • Partner with schools to modernize curriculum and teach their students about textured hair.

  • Evaluate products so consumers know what actually works for their hair.

  • Transform the entire ecosystem, because real change means fixing the whole system, not just patching one piece.
