When we launched #myhairmystory this year, our goal was to amplify stories that needed to be heard, especially the kind of stories that the beauty industry refuses to exist unless they profit from it. The stories we have seen so far are so, so humbling. And they’re waking us up to even more issues that we want to shed light on. We recognise that we have a huge audience and it’s our responsibility to tell stories that make the world better. So, we wanted to share a few stories that we thought were terrifically important to amplify.
1. Sitting Pretty’s perspective on having both style & a disability (watch the whole thing on Youtube)
2. Wife Life’s story about forming their queer identity & how hair color played into that
3. Tattooed Yogi Mama’s decision to show off their bald spot

Thank you sharing these wonderful stories. As a disabled person I appreciate this.
Thanks for sharing my wife’s story (#2!) and giving all voices the opportunity to be shared!
