Happy Women’s Month!! In celebration, we decided to focus on topics that directly impact Black Women. Texturism can be defined as the idea that loose or well defined curls deserve favoring or praise, and it most certainly influences the beauty standard of &nbsp;black women. In this episode, we discuss the history of our hair types, how texturism shows up today, and so much more! You definitely &nbsp;don’t want to miss this episode!
