by Shanti and Antoinette of AroundTheWayCurls I’d like to start by learning more about you. What is your name? What is your background? Where are you from? How do you define yourself? I’m Emma Cole Hart… I was born in New Mexico and lived in Flagstaff, Arizona with my mom, my Aunt Gail and her girlfriend until I was five……
Lately, my Google searches go something like this–‘at home hair thickening treatment’, ‘naturally volumize fine ass hair’, ‘mousse for bigger hair’ …and things of that nature. Hundreds of henna, beer rinse, oat flour and sexually inappropriate results later, I happened upon something that caught me off guard. Apparently, Denise Richards has a volumizing hair care line. Denise Richards. You know…actress,…
Meet Janja… a gorgeous curly who spends her summers on the Adriatic Coast. Even across the pond, embracing her curls was something she had to learn. CN: Have you always embraced your natural curls? If not, who or what inspired you?While growing up my curls were never constant, so my hair-mood also depended on that. I was an extremely curly…
Meet Sharon… gorgeous curly who catches grief from CHI guy in the mall! CN: Have you always embraced your natural curls? If not, who or what inspired you? No!

If not, who or what inspired you?No, I can’t say I’ve always embraced my natural curls because I didn’t learn how to care forthem until I was about 23 years old. I remember being a young girl…
Meet Whitney… yet another Flax Seed Gel fan! CN: Have you always embraced your natural curls? If not, who or what inspired you?I never embraced my natural curls until about a year ago.

Meet Wavezncurlz… a natural that even when relaxed, opted for the curly look! CN: Have you always embraced your natural curls? If not, who or what inspired you? I always liked curly hair and I have always worn my hair curly. Even when I was relaxed, I was under-processed (texalaxed as they call it on the boards). I can’t tell…
Meet D. Luciani …. a wavy that looks to a few silicones (namely Amodimethicone, just like me!) to combat the summer frizzies. CN: Have you always embraced your natural curls?

Meet Carletre… a college wavy that manages to achieve good hair days, while on a budget! CN: Have you always embraced your natural curls? If not, who or what inspired you?Definitely not!
