“You should feel seen whether you have curly, coily, or loc’d hair.” When you search “beautiful hair” now, you’re offered multiple hair types, and you can narrow down the pins even further. Before, “if you searched ‘beautiful hair’ on Pinterest, the immediate results that you would get would be images of white women, probably with blonde, straight hair - and that’s just the internet in general - but that should not be the standard of beauty,” LaFond says. The message behind “hair pattern” is an important one. LaFond - who has also served as Amika’s global artistic director for the past six years - recentlyteamed up with Pinterest to develop the app’s “hair pattern,” a tool that allows users to refine their hair searches by six different hair patterns: protective, coily, curly, wavy, straight, and shaved/bald. Below, we asked one of our favorite beauty pros to share her own selections.Īfter nearly two decades as a hairstylist, Naeemah LaFond’s looks have appeared on Yara Shahidi and Whitney Peak, as well as on the runways of Christopher John Rogers and Sandy Liang. On the Beauty Group, a Facebook community co-founded by the Cut and the Strategist, people chat all day long about the products they love - the ones so good they’ll make you hit that little “auto-refill” box at checkout.
