Probably not right? That’s okay we’re here to help. Curl IQ is a black-owned software company that identifies any texture and hairstyle from a selfie.  Curl IQ was founded by Kymberlee Hill and Yemariam Mamo. In 2016, they recognized that women with textured hair were often taught to only tame and manipulate their hair as if it were some scary beast after speaking to some of their friends that summer who told them they also shared some of the same hair concerns. Kymberlee and Yemariam are a team of computer scientists and hair enthusiasts who saw an opportunity to cater to a market that is constantly underserved. Knowing how to style textured hair and keep it healthy are the cornerstones of their platform, but Curl IQ is also rooted in revolutionary political ideas. It is about rejecting unattainable beauty ideals, and not allowing them to demoralize us. Curl IQ is ultimately creating this campaign to gain brand awareness. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/usecurliq/message
