Switching It Up!

from The Tight Curls Project · host Shadia Oshodi

This week I’m joined by Amanda, who brings humor, heart, and her rooted  confidence to the mic. Her hair story is rooted in family, curiosity, and a growing appreciation for how she was created, curls and all. Since her early days admiring the women at the beauty salon to finding inspiration from her favorite 106 & Park artists, she’s always treated hair as a space for creativity and self-expression. Now as a mom, Amanda is modeling that same pride for her daughter. We talk about styling in ways that highlight her natural texture and how representation at home shapes the way kids see themselves. She also shares the realistic weekly routine that’s helped bring ease into their family rhythm. It’s funny, fun and full of the kind of wisdom that lifts and encourages.   ✅ Help more people find us by subscribing to this podcast.
