Why Multicultural Hair Needs a Completely Different Approach


Listen Later

Tanya Mason grew up between her Caucasian grandmother's fine hair and her Indian mother's hair that wasn't quite hers either. Nothing the beauty world taught her covered the texture in the middle. After 30 years behind the chair, she stopped following the rules and started asking why: Why conditioner? Why the big chop? Why nothing on the shelf actually worked?

In this conversation with host Elleyne Aldine, Tanya talks about the multicultural hair gap nobody taught her in beauty school, the ingredient in your conditioner that's also approved as jet fuel, and the water she trademarked that changed everything for her clients. She also shares her CPC formula: Commitment, patience, consistency. The restoration program that lets you keep your length, and why the real damage to your hair isn't the product, it's what's coming out of your tap.
