Why I Stopped Wearing My Natural Curls (for now)

Back after TWO years… and we have a lot to talk about. This video is me being real about my natural hair journey—what worked, what didn’t, and why I’m stepping into my natural straight hair era (yes, intentionally 👀). For years, I was committed to wash-and-go life, curly cuts, and trying every product under the sun… but I started noticing breakage, frustration, and honestly? I missed being able to flip my hair, curl it, wear extensions, etc. There was a lack of versatility for me. All I could do is wait for my hair to grow and appear bigger. If I didn't color my hair, I was bored with it. This isn’t about abandoning my curls—it’s about evolving my brand. In this video, I’m sharing: What I learned from years of wearing my hair curly Why wash-and-go styling wasn’t working for me anymore My experience with curly cuts and maintenance How I’m approaching straight styles while still protecting my natural hair My goals: length retention, reducing breakage, and expanding my “look” for modeling + acting opportunities I also touch on my previous thoughts on the Cécred Foundation Collection and how product experimentation played into my journey. This new era is about intention, versatility, and giving myself options without sacrificing hair health. If you’ve ever felt lowkey stuck in your natural hair routine… this conversation is for you!
