My kinky, curly coils are worth it and then some! Britteny Davidson delves into the world of Black Hair care
In our latest podcast episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Britteny, the dynamic owner and stylist at Kurlykoils. Britteny's journey in the natural hair care industry is nothing short of inspiring. With a cosmetology license since 2007 and a focus on natural hair since 2015, Britteny has dedicated her career to empowering black women to embrace their natural curls and find beauty in their own hair.
Britteny's passion for hair started at a young age. She recalls doing her own hair as early as second grade, driven by a desire to detangle her hair herself.

Britteny's approach is refreshingly honest—she sets realistic expectations for her clients and focuses on maintaining the health of their hair above all else.

Britteny's mission is to help her clients break free from societal standards and embrace their natural beauty. She offers a supportive environment where clients can learn to care for their hair and feel confident in their natural curls.
In addition to her work in the salon, Britteny is passionate about educating her clients. She takes the time to explain her methods, ensuring that her clients can recreate their salon looks at home. This educational approach is a game-changer for many, providing them with the tools and knowledge they need to manage their hair confidently.
Our conversation with Britteny was a powerful reminder of the importance of self-care and self-acceptance.
