Relaxers aren’t the only problematic hair products

  • Summary

  • We are kicking off season two by digging into the recent study that linked hair relaxers to ovarian cancer. Turns out, relaxers aren't the only hair products that could be harmful. In this episode, we speak with beauty influencer and venture capitalist Blake Newby and sociologist and natural hair care expert Dr. Taura Taylor. We explore the reasons some people get relaxers despite knowing the dangers, while also looking at the history of perms and the policing of Black hair.
