As queer, Black women in the beauty industry dealing with discrimination from clients, Christin Brown and her wife made a business decision not to show their faces on their websites. But as their business grew, they decided to put their identities at the center of their business. Christin now exclusively styles natural, curly, unmanipulated hair at their Santa Barbara, California salon – and she couldn't be happier. Christin and Blake discuss the importance of pride in all aspects of your identity - including in your business as a stylist. Plus, a short history of Black hair that you won't want to miss.
