Join us for an inspiring new episode of Unraveling the Knots’ “What’s Hair Got to Do With It?” series as we sit down with Folu Seton, a communications PhD candidate, seasoned educator, and savvy digital strategist. With her trademark sass and confidence, Folu shares a deeply personal story of hair, growth, and self-acceptance. Though she currently rocks a relaxed style, Tolu’s heart is with her natural roots. She takes us from cherished childhood memories to mastering DIY styles, and through the highs and lows of dye mishaps and breakage. Along the way, she reveals how finding the natural hair community uplifted her and strengthened her identity.
