CurlyCurvyPassion is the sister duo of Jennifer and Andrea. Their willingness to be different has stood out among a sea of similar bloggers and content creators. At a time when it is trendy to give into the peer pressure of creating content based on trends or popular belief, they make a name for themselves by being unapologetically unique.Jennifer and Andrea are a 40 -something dynamic duo of Colombian Americans who, like their brand, are Curly, Curvy and Passionate about many things. Whether creating content, blogging or speaking about healthy curls, self love, empowerment, culture or community, CurlyCurvyPassion creates genuine connections with followers, readers, audiences and brands alike through their content. The sisters firmly believe in empowerment achieved through vulnerable real talk. After all, why be the same as everyone else when you can be confidently you?
