My Journey To Natural Hair Care: How CurlyCoilyTresses® Was Born

A simple mistake changed everything. A licensed cosmetologist accidentally spilled chemical relaxer on my face during a relaxer, and the aftermath was traumatic — a severe chemical burn that required treatment.

This wasn't my first experience with chemical burns. I had already suffered scalp burns from relaxers, and my hair had fallen out twice because of them.

As someone who grew up in a world of chemical relaxers, hot combs and jheri curls, going natural felt completely unfamiliar. But I knew it was time for a change. After transitioning to natural hair and doing the big chop, I quickly faced new challenges.

Most products left my hair dry or caused allergic reactions.

Desperate for a solution, I began researching, experimenting and formulating my own products using raw ingredients.

At first, these formulas were just for me. But after nearly 30 years in corporate roles, I realized my struggles weren’t unique. When my corporate career came to an end, I decided to turn my passion into something bigger — CurlyCoilyTresses® was born.

CurlyCoilyTresses® isn’t just another hair care brand. It’s a story of resilience, self-discovery and a commitment to providing authentic, effective natural hair care for women over 50.
