Curly hair coach?
My teenaged daughter experiences a lot of stress trying to learn how to manage her wavy / loose curls without frizz. She doesn’t accept help and guidance well from me so I’m thinking a third party could help her learn some techniques so that she feels better about it. Anyone know a coach that we could hire to come to the house and see her actual set up and teach her how to get her hair ready in the morning?

We just started seeing Antoinette at "Hair" on Solano Ave to help my daughter become more independent with her haircare. She has told me that coaching teen girls is something that she does. I don't know if she would come to your home, but we have been bringing our products to her and she has been directing us to better products and helping us improve our haircare in general. Toni and my daughter are African American, but I know that she sees clients with many hair types.
Hello! I went through something similar with my daughter. I have straight hair, so was at a loss of how to help her anyway.
Eventually, we found "Curly Girl: The Handbook". You can also search "curly girl method" on your favorite browser to find information online. My daughter tried various suggestions and found what worked for her. I also splurged and paid for a haircut from a Deva Curl certified stylist. She's 20 now and has beautiful, soft, natural loose waves. The best part about it is that less is more. Her hair is super easy to take care of even with a busy college lifestyle.
Well,
You can make an appointment with Patricia at La Peluqueria in Berkeley. She is an expert in curly hair, she also has curly her. My daughter and I have curly hair and finally, with lots of different products, we have non frizzy curls. Contact me if you would like an informal conversation...It is funny because people talk about loving your natural hair, but they don't understand it is also difficult to do so instead of using a flat iron to have it straight...
