See, I had originally put that clip in my video but took it out because there could be counter arguments made that the same could be said about barbers only doing white hair at clips n cuts or barbers only knowing how to do black hair at your local stores. I feel you wholeheartedly 100% tho 💕
@@HannahMussette i guess that's right but I'd consider those ones as specialists in that particular field, instead of "professionals ". If a MUA can only do particular skin colours, they aren't real professionals.
Y'all ever notice that a lot of dark skin models are baldheaded? I find that weird that as soon as black girls start modeling they go on to shaving their head
DeL Possible ooooh I never noticed that until you pointed that out. It’s very true tho! A lot of my friends have shaved heads or wear weaves per agencies suggestions on how they should look to be marketed
Every time I was watching America’s Next stop model back in the days and there was a black girl, when it was time to do the relooking thingy, they would shave her head! I used to get so mad like whyyyy all of them! Like just put a nice weave on her head if you REALLY don’t wanna deal with her hair but don’t shave it!
I’m so glad you are addressing these issues. Not to just shameeee on those who don’t know how to do black hair buttttttt, they need to get educated if they are going to be in this industry. If they really want you on their brand they BETTER GET WITH THE TIMEESSSS. We ain’t got time for this buffoonery
@@belledej7555 It's not black hair though. Black hair is a whole different follicle shape. Something that is dense, thick and frizzy doesn't equate to black hair.
I have always said that you can not call yourself a hairstylist and cannot do multiple kinds of hair. It’s ridiculous. That’s like calling yourself a chef and can only cook one dish, they could take pride in their craft and learn. Thanks for sharing, sorry you have to go through that.
taylor chloe exactly. If you’re a chef and can only cook fish for example, call yourself a fish chef (not the best example I know😂) if you can only do white hair call yourself a white hairdresser. Same principle.
You can literally feel the pain in her voice. I'm so sorry you have to go through this and, as a young black girl who wants to become a model, I'm really appreciative of you putting this out. It really helps ❤️

This video was made to share my experience as a model with natural hair. I didn’t make this video to cause drama, but to shed light on the problem of most black models never getting their hair done. Thanks for watching ♥️ Edit: here’s the link to my modeling advice videos for anyone interested! th-cam.com/play/PLtEAj2QlqOx7dyA4V6dQ40NSWi4UioREu.html
Thank you so much gorgeous!! This video was very much needed and helpful, as I’m an aspiring actress and model. I agree to everything said.. take care ♥️
Oh Hannah! I follow you on ig (@harpsandlowe) and my toddler models - GIRL YOU AIN'T EVER LIED!!! They can't do black or biracial hair lol. Shit kills me. I do my daughter's hair before she goes to shoots and I take it down and fluff it myself.
I've had stylists upset with me because my daughter's hair is "greasy" when in reality her hair is MOISTURIZED. They would have me blot her oil out of her hair and wipe their hands on towels with a disgusted look on their face. 🙄🙄
You're BRAVE to make this video. Simply because you're a black woman doing this, speaking up. Rare but hopefully you don't get black balled.. in your field.
Godly y’all need to let go of the one drop rule thing. If someone is mixed with black then they’re mixed. That’s just like calling a grey color black....
Oh Mann ich kann es mir vorstellen! Ich lerne viel über unterschiedliche Haare weil es mich einfach interessiert, aber ich bin kein Hairstylist. Es sollte in der Friseurausbildung definitiv behandelt werden. Es gibt vor allem so viele Arten von locken und die meisten können noch nicht einmal mit Locken umgehen :( Stellt sich heraus, dass ich keine blöden trockenen, strohigen Haare habe, sondern einfach 2c Haare, die wunderschön mit der richtigen Pflege aussehen. Kein Friseur hat mich jemals drauf hingewiesen.
I'm french with kinky texture. It can happen too when you're going to a hairsalon (even in the ones who claim taking care of black hair). They're whispering or talking or laughing at you while they are chit chating with others clients. When they see you're starting to get mad, suddendly they change their behavior because they remember you are gonna to pay them. It's very sad to see behavior like this in 2020. Keep going 👍
It is soo sad that people are still like this with natural hair. It's the most beautiful hair that those standart tried to "correct". I hope for models like you there will be a change and we can see more beautiful natural hair in ads and magazin ❤🥰
Once, when I was modeling in my early 20s, I got asked to walk in a runway show for a local designer. The designer's collection was very 90s grunge-esque, so he requested a smokey eye/brick red lip for the makeup and a straight "wet look" slicked back hairstyle. The show was later in the afternoon, so all the models were scheduled to come in earlier in the morning to get our hair and makeup done. (A couple of important things for context: At the time, I was the only black model signed to the agency/All the hair stylists and makeup artists were white.) So, I'm at the venue just chilling and reading a book--waiting for my turn--when a hairstylist finally calls my name. I walk over and plop down in the chair and, before I even knew what was happening, this girl starts dousing my hair with a water bottle. Mind you, the night before, I had spent hours blowing out/flat ironing my *natural* hair because I knew the designer wanted a straight look. I'd figured that the stylist was just going to use some gel throughout the front part of my hair to give it that "slick" effect. Nope. My hair started to immediately revert back into an afro--right in front of the stylist's eyes--and she just stood there, looking on in horror. She, then, called her other stylists friends over, so they could see what'd just happened. From there, they all proceeded to just stand around, staring at my head, like I was sprouting horns or something lol. Long story short, I drove all the way home to re-blowdry my hair and re-straighten it (none of stylists had any hot tools with them, just water and gel 🤦♂️). Luckily, I didn't live too far away from the venue and it was still early enough that I still had a few hours to spare. Oh, and while I was at home, I took the opportunity to fix my makeup as well. The agency had hired this makeup artist--who'd recently launched her own makeup line (which, surprise, surprise...had a very limited range of shades)--and the girl had basically turned me into a full-on geisha. So, yep, that was the last modeling gig I ever did lol. I'd only been modeling for a short amount of time, but I'd already ran into *sooo* many similar experiences that I just found it too discouraging. If you're reading this, I'm proud of you for sticking with it and not letting other people's ignorance stand in the way of your happiness!! ❤
Brittney J how could she not know the water would revert your hair?! The lack of basic ass knowledge and then rude response just staring at it would have fucked me right off haha. Props to you for going through that!!
i grew up with my mom telling me that my hair was too much to handle. now i’m struggling more than ever trying to transition since she relaxed too many times
Don’t worry. Baby steps. You can do this!! No heat tools. Deep condition and mini trim as much as you can. Your beautiful hair will thrive and thank you in the future xxx
This is the reason why I wanna be a hairstyle so I can help out my natural hair models because I’ll know how to take care of y’all natural hair without damaging it 😊
With TH-cam around there’s literally no excuse. Stylists can get the information direct from the source even if they didn’t learn how to do textured hair in beauty school
A friend of mine who has straight hair once said to me as she was playing with my hair as I had cut it and had an afro for the first time ever " you have the worst 4c hair." And this was after I tought her about hair types. I felt ao much rage and I no longer let her touch my hair as she pulls it and weakens my roots. This video has inspired me to love my kinky hair❤
As a licensed cosmetologist and a woman with natural hair, I have heard and worked with other stylists who SHUN natural coils and curls. Based on my own integrity, I’ve parted ways with those stylists because of their ignorance and discrimination based off of something they vocalized they didn’t want to learn to STAY ignorant
Oh trust me my biggest regret was perming my hair back then just because no stylist wanted to do my hair ,they literally used to lie to me that "oh she's not available now blah blahhhh" But i learnt to manage my own hair now that I'm natural again
I’m so glad u posted this! I deal with the same things! I try to bring my own things and do my own hair to save everyone some time and sanity because many stylists are afraid to even get near my head!
Anya Ball it’s so sad that we have to sometimes bring our own hair products / do our hair on set. Most of the time hair stylists know who the model is or what kind of hair they have when they accept the job! It’s just laziness.
The passion Hannah has about her beautiful hair is amazing. The way she speaks about her hair is only improving the situation for curly girls/ black hair. A goddess.
3:24 omg I hate when they say, " it looks good just the way it is." and I'm wearing a messy ponytail and my hair is semi dry! Or the other girls with straight hair get cool hairstyles and they just fluff my hair and I go. I feel your pain, I hate it too. It gets old. Get people that can do OUR hair!
Aspiring Femininity they are usually cool about it and look frazzled but it makes me feel like this emoji on the inside (😈😈) because I’m actually forcing them to put effort into my hair at that point
I grew up as a model from a very young age and I remember whenever I went for a shoot my mom would ALWAYS have to straighten my hair the night before. They loved my skin and features (I’m mixed with black and puertorican) but didn’t like my hair texture. Luckily I have 3b/3c curls so they can be straightening really quickly and I had a lot of length but it was always such a hassle. Glad I quit, the industry was toxic af.
I'm Eurasian with 2C hair and I'm also sick of stylists busting out the straightening iron the minute they see my hair because they don't know how to work with my hair type. An actress named Jasika Nicole wrote a whole post about this same issue on her IG where she talked about a hairstylist cutting off 4 inches of her hair when he was only supposed to trim it because he didn't know how to work with curly hair and her bad haircut had to be written into the show's script so the audience didn't think there was a time cut. Stop calling yourself a professional hair stylist if you can only work with one type of hair texture and stop calling yourself a professional makeup artist if you can only work with one type of skin tone.
My whole family is white but I have 3b to 3c curls and nobody knows how to take care of it . As I got older I started doing research and understood my hair. I hate when someone touches it because they don’t know that it causes frizz when you pull . 😂
Same ... whenever I let my curls down my mom would be like your hair is damaged or you should detangle your hair and put it in a bun ( because the curls would be more straight ) but i'm trying to make her understand that curls aren't bad or damaged hair
Yess!! 👏👏👏 Thank you for speaking up about this. There's literally no excuse for a stylist not knowing how to do ALL hair types. They just don't want to learn how.
it’s not even that hard to learn how to do natural hair. my mom used to straighten my hair everyday till I was able to do hair by myself and took me about 2 days to learn how to take care of my curls. and I just watched TH-cam videos lol.
Girl, your video was so eye open I've also been so insecure to start modelling because of my natural hair and also my weight, thanks for shedding light on it. 💕
Also natural is sooo beautiful , i didn't like my hair in the beginning . I thought it was to big and different . Now i love my natural hair . I know you slay your hair 💕
This is so awesome. They’re not many people who talk about this subject but it is definitely something that needs to be brought up more often. Thank you❤️
I love how you speak up in this video!! Giving other naturals the courage to be bold and confident when they are exposed to persons who don't care for their hair👏👏 Beautiful❤💯
Wow, you would think by now the industry would get it. If you’re going to have a natural hair model book a hairstylist that specializes in natural hair....glad you are putting your foot down about your hair. Our hair is beautiful as is, no need to change it.
Thank u Hannah this world needs to know curly hair can not be changed because of beauty standards!!!!! They are the ones who gotta change the way they look at it 👊👊
So as a model are you allowed to do your own hair?And do you feel comfortable with these hair stylist doing your hair not knowing if they could potentially mess it up?
Thank you for sharing sis! I know it isn’t fair, but I suggest that if you have to take control or assist in styling your own hair, that needs to be added as a part of your compensation during negotiations!
I have type 1A hair and I like it but it gets boring sometimes cuz you can’t curl, I wish I had beautiful big curly hair like yours but I still love my hair and accept it❤️
girl your hair is amazing and i think that hairstylists should THANK THERE GOD for u cause its so special and just different in its own amazing way and I'm telling you trust me people suffer for hours trying to get your hair but girl you can get it without any stress so never let these people get u down ❤
So much respect for you girl use your platform and shed light I’m here for it!! 🙌🏽 I hope I can become a natural hairstylist one day so models, actresses etc won’t have to go through this! One day 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you for this because I’m trying to get into natural hair modeling and I’ve been doing research on it and you’re the first one came up ,this is absolutely amazing,thank so much!! You are very brave and you have no idea how many people you have inspired!
OMG, I’m not a model but I can for sure relate to this!! Even just going to a salon before I knew how to do my own hair & getting looked at like this. Like “I” was the problem bc of my hair. Smh, thank you for this video!
This is a very much needed video! I feel you 200%, even though I am not a model, I understand your struggle. They shouldn’t be considered hair professionals if they can’t do black hair. Btw, love the curls 🥰🥰
I am so glad that finally this issue is being addressed. I am so proud that you are stepping out to say this. Much love and respect for you! I love my natural hair and your hair is beautiful! 💛💛
I thought i was the only one! So happy you posted this video shedding light and allowing us naturals to not feel alone. Everything you said I have experienced onset before and only a few cases where I've felt worry-free. Im praying that the industry will change ❤
this is sooo important. this is also an issue with makeup artist in the industry who barely do makeup, if any, for black (especially darker skin tones) models because they aren’t prepared with the proper shades. Once I was doing makeup for a fashion show and all of the black models gravitated to my station (bc i was the only black MUA) and they expressed all of the instances they’ve experienced where MUA’s only put eyeshadow and no face makeup bc they didnt have their shade or couldnt color match them. i even had a MUA ask “do you have a color for her?” bluntly in a models face with no shame.. The model industry is evolving but theres still a lot of things that need to be addressed
Thank you so much Hannah for sharing this and being brave, it is never right for companies or anyone to view others as less and treat them with less respect, it’s important people speak out so we can demand equality & progress and getting backlash is honestly grounds for a lawsuit. I’ve always enjoyed modeling but haven’t done it much professionally yet (mostly volunteer work), and listening to your specific examples is helpful. Just sharing this to help others: Once I was asked if I’d like to come to a hair school for a curly hair workshop and I gladly accepted as I had had pretty good experiences volunteering there for years and liked interacting with & supporting the students (but did end up doing my own hair one time before a show because they neglected me /didn’t know what they were doing, now I remember). The workshop was being led by a white woman who claimed to know curly hair. She let the student wash me, who of course proceeded to wash like she would any straight-haired person, resulting in my tight curls becoming unnecessarily tangled. Then while back in the chair under the teacher’s supervision, she began to timidly try to section and detangle my hair, and once I felt she was causing a big matted area to form, I stopped and started giving suggestions. The teacher kept trying to silence me and tell me she knew what she was doing, and I raised my voice and protested, which led to us arguing and I had to leave. As you note, curly hair is more fragile and I know my hair; once a section has tangles combed incorrectly into it, with my fine hair, sometimes there’s no going back but to cut it, and it was my body they were damaging. All they had to do was be humble and listen to me, and I would’ve saved them time & effort as they were doing my hair incorrectly. I had been natural for four years at that point and had modeled with them in shows about 5 times. And to make things worse, as I left, someone at the front desk asked if I would sign a form that I would not model there again. I was younger & didn’t know better, so I signed it. But I didn’t have to and should not have signed it, because I did nothing wrong, just stand up to being abused and disrespected. I’m looking back now and realizing how I encountered racism and bad makeup, etc in many cases, and plan to respond better in the future. So if this happens to anyone else, don’t sign a form or anything like that if you did nothing wrong. And yes I’ll name drop, because this is about calling for equality, and after visiting an AVEDA hair school in a different state for a haircut recently, I saw and heard from the student & teacher themselves that they still don’t prioritize teaching the students about textured hair, how to braid, etc. The woman who worked on me was so sweet and I was nice and supportive of her, & she admitted she was scared to do textured hair. Even the black woman who was the instructor working on me ripped my hair out unnecessarily, though, and would not listen when I told her my hair needed to be finger detangled before brushing. (It was very tangled after being washed in a non-curl friendly way). Anyway, the hair school that allowed me to be disrespected and abused and then asked me to sign a form not to come back was AVEDA Institute Chapel Hill, NC. But even in another state years later the case is still the same. AVEDA doesn’t bother to really educate students on textured hair.
Great video Hannah!! I’ve been subscribed to you even before you cut your hair and you did the school videos with your friends. It’s great to see how far you’ve come by just being yourself!!! The world will attack the pure light in this world, but I thank God for your life. God bless you ❤️
Omgggg I’ve experienced this back stage !!! Everything you said was FACTS !! That’s sooo true about them rushing to do your hair ..I get to set on time and you’re rushing to do the bare minimum on my head ..just errrkss my nerves ...it’s sad but I bring straight and curly wigs now just in case hairstylists don’t know what to do with my hair 😑
I have naturally curly hair and I have anxiety anytime someone straightens it because I have had my hair damaged from it 😭 it too so long to grow out and to have some one who is supposed to know what they are doing damage your hair is painful. Thanks for speaking out. You and your hair are beautiful.
I have experienced this so much.. IN JAMAICA!!!! A predominately black country! You’d think they’d know how to do curly natural hair but no! It’s ridiculous! I have sooooo much damage now because of this! Omg! Thank you for speaking up!
I’m glad you made this video. Very interesting indeed.. my mom used to be a model and she would state how hairdressers would struggle with her hair or just get overwhelmed of how thick and curly it was. Sometimes they wouldn’t even accept her to do photo shoots because they didn’t know how to properly style the hair.
I really love this video, this is the third time I've watched it. I love when people share their full truth with confidence. You're educating people and making them more aware. IGNORANCE BE GONE!!
hi! i just wanted to say i’ve watched u since u cut ur hair into a twa and honestly i’m so glad you’ve been able to pursue your career and i’ve seen u grow from a quirky sweet teen into the beautiful women u are inside and out 💖
Many, many, many moons ago as a model wearing my natural hair, I wound up with a lot of funky pinned up hairstyles. Smh that it's still the same. Couldn't do it then...can't do it know. You are beautiful love...keep being unapologetically you.
Honestly I love your hair, you look gorgeous!!!! Hairstylists just need to learn their hair, that's their job. I have the opposite hair. But I love haircare and hair. I watch so many hair videos some with and some without my hair type. But what would the world look boring if everyone and everyone's hair looked alike.
Hi Hannah i'v been wathching you since your first big chop i'm from France and i say a big YES to this video ! I am as frustrated as you when i hear what you say, i don't understand how you can call yourself a full hairstylist when you only know how to do one type of hair, it's like a dermathologist who only know how to deal with oily skin and not the rest, that doesn't make any sense ! Thank you for sharing your experience let's hope people will finally hear this
Thank you so much for sharing this and speaking on this issue !! Not gonna lie to hear this going on is kinda scary and sad especially how I’m an aspiring model and I have BIG thick hair . I would probably have to bring my own products and do my hair , bc if they just see my hair alone they would probably run:(
Thank you for speaking out on this because this needed to be said and sometimes I’m sitting in that chair in that Dominican salon and Ik for a fact their talking smack about me and my sisters hair.i was too shy to speak up about it but next I will.she even told to stop putting oils in my hair bc It was “too oily”.like what???stop trying to educate me when it’s MY HAIR.
I'm currently a 2nd year student in hairdressing and I would love to know how to work with your type of hair. I've always adored and dreamed of having hair so curly and massive ever since I was a kid. I do have natural curls but nothing compared to that beautiful african hair some people are so blessed with, I wish you better experiences in your work gorgey hun 💜
Had similar experience at beauty school. Was the last to leave that night around 10:30. It was like owner was mad at me. Before even starting my hair she complained of volume and density. I just wanted a set. It turned out pretty but I wouldn't go back. She kept saying oh I'll do your hair again. I have a lot of hair but it's manageable and as a hair school owner I provided a very teachable moment.
You are so beautiful. I’m here to learn something about your incredible hair texture. Your natural hair is stunning! I hope you find stylists do make the effort to learn more.
I’m so glad your making this video because I’m trying to get into the industry and I want to be able to wear my natural hair and not feel the need to have my hair straightened.
I’ve reached the point where I ask in advance what styles can be worn for the runway or shoot and I just do it myself. Thank you for making this video😭❤️.
Girl, I hardly know how to do my own hair and I have very coily/curly hair. I wouldn’t expect someone else to know how to do it. Especially when curly hair reacts different no matter if it looks like another head in the room. BUTTT the “modeling” or “beauty industry” could hire more diverse stylists who know how to do natural hair. 🤷🏽♀️ just a thought. I understand the frustration. I can hear it in your voice. Hopefully there’s a resolution.
I’ve been to so many jobs and they haven’t bothered to do my hair and yet have done other (European) models hair. It is really upsetting and you feel left out. But when there is a SKILFUL hairstylist you are definitely right thru are always rushed!!! 🙌🏽👏🏽
I agree! I’ve been wanting to be a model for a while but am lowkey scared cuz I don’t want my hair to get damaged. I have natural 3a curls and am afraid they’re just gonna stick straightening irons to my hair. I also am into clean beauty since I have really reactive skin and kinda don’t want whatever brands they think are best 🤔
Its even worse when ppl that look like you cant do it or look at it like they dont understand. Its sad. But thats one of the reasons i stopped going to the salon and helped motivate me to learn how to do my own hair once i went back to my curly hair...plus i was getting heat damage on my natural hair from getting it flat ironed so much, because my stylist didn't know how to do natural hair styles. So even tho its kinda sad..it was a blessing in disguise for me to be forced to learn what i was hesitant to learn. Im no longer dependent in that way and it was the best choice ever! Ive always loved my curls, so did my mom...just didn't understand it before. Knowledge is power!

There are actually non blacks with “black hair” it’s just very rare, but people will say it’s impossible because they haven’t witnessed it before.
@@belledej7555 they said "black hair" because the texture is most common in black people or people with african roots. Just shortening it.

Stellt sich heraus, dass ich keine blöden trockenen, strohigen Haare habe, sondern einfach 2c Haare, die wunderschön mit der richtigen Pflege aussehen. Kein Friseur hat mich jemals drauf hingewiesen.
I'm french with kinky texture. It can happen too when you're going to a hairsalon (even in the ones who claim taking care of black hair). They're whispering or talking or laughing at you while they are chit chating with others clients. When they see you're starting to get mad, suddendly they change their behavior because they remember you are gonna to pay them. It's very sad to see behavior like this in 2020. Keep going 👍
J'ai entendu dire que lorsque tu étudies en CAP coiffure, le cheveux afro/bouclé est une option...
C'est pour ça que j'ai arrêté les salons et choisi des indépendants en plus c'est agréable et calme !
It is soo sad that people are still like this with natural hair. It's the most beautiful hair that those standart tried to "correct". I hope for models like you there will be a change and we can see more beautiful natural hair in ads and magazin ❤🥰
WHO ELSE HAS BEEN A FAN OF HER BEFORE 2020

You cannot call yourself a “hair-stylist” if you DONT KNOW HOW to style ALL HAIR ‼️💕
Have y’all ever noticed how in shampoo commercial and the black girl has a weave or is bald 🤦🏽♀️ they are gorgeous honestly but it’s sad
No
@@roses2122 no what
Once, when I was modeling in my early 20s, I got asked to walk in a runway show for a local designer. The designer's collection was very 90s grunge-esque, so he requested a smokey eye/brick red lip for the makeup and a straight "wet look" slicked back hairstyle. The show was later in the afternoon, so all the models were scheduled to come in earlier in the morning to get our hair and makeup done.
(A couple of important things for context: At the time, I was the only black model signed to the agency/All the hair stylists and makeup artists were white.)
So, I'm at the venue just chilling and reading a book--waiting for my turn--when a hairstylist finally calls my name. I walk over and plop down in the chair and, before I even knew what was happening, this girl starts dousing my hair with a water bottle. Mind you, the night before, I had spent hours blowing out/flat ironing my *natural* hair because I knew the designer wanted a straight look. I'd figured that the stylist was just going to use some gel throughout the front part of my hair to give it that "slick" effect. Nope.
My hair started to immediately revert back into an afro--right in front of the stylist's eyes--and she just stood there, looking on in horror. She, then, called her other stylists friends over, so they could see what'd just happened. From there, they all proceeded to just stand around, staring at my head, like I was sprouting horns or something lol.
Long story short, I drove all the way home to re-blowdry my hair and re-straighten it (none of stylists had any hot tools with them, just water and gel 🤦♂️). Luckily, I didn't live too far away from the venue and it was still early enough that I still had a few hours to spare. Oh, and while I was at home, I took the opportunity to fix my makeup as well. The agency had hired this makeup artist--who'd recently launched her own makeup line (which, surprise, surprise...had a very limited range of shades)--and the girl had basically turned me into a full-on geisha.
So, yep, that was the last modeling gig I ever did lol. I'd only been modeling for a short amount of time, but I'd already ran into *sooo* many similar experiences that I just found it too discouraging.
If you're reading this, I'm proud of you for sticking with it and not letting other people's ignorance stand in the way of your happiness!! ❤
As I read your comment, I literally saw the whole situation play out. That's absolutely ridiculous!
Just looked at your picture and wanted to add that you are very beautiful!
@@embracewithchristina Aww thank you! Yeah, it was ridiculous. But, unfortunately, these type of scenarios are not uncommon for ethnic models 🤷♀️
Brittney J how could she not know the water would revert your hair?! The lack of basic ass knowledge and then rude response just staring at it would have fucked me right off haha. Props to you for going through that!!
@@MiyaGeorginaJoi she probably thought her hair was chemically straightened.
i grew up with my mom telling me that my hair was too much to handle. now i’m struggling more than ever trying to transition since she relaxed too many times
Don’t worry. Baby steps. You can do this!! No heat tools. Deep condition and mini trim as much as you can. Your beautiful hair will thrive and thank you in the future xxx
This is the reason why I wanna be a hairstyle so I can help out my natural hair models because I’ll know how to take care of y’all natural hair without damaging it 😊
With TH-cam around there’s literally no excuse. Stylists can get the information direct from the source even if they didn’t learn how to do textured hair in beauty school
Angela R exactly!!
A friend of mine who has straight hair once said to me as she was playing with my hair as I had cut it and had an afro for the first time ever " you have the worst 4c hair." And this was after I tought her about hair types. I felt ao much rage and I no longer let her touch my hair as she pulls it and weakens my roots. This video has inspired me to love my kinky hair❤
That friend is full of shit. I bet your afro is BEAUTIFUL
Lutho Ludwaba your afro is your crown wear it with your head high queen 👑👑
As a licensed cosmetologist and a woman with natural hair, I have heard and worked with other stylists who SHUN natural coils and curls. Based on my own integrity, I’ve parted ways with those stylists because of their ignorance and discrimination based off of something they vocalized they didn’t want to learn to STAY ignorant
Oh trust me my biggest regret was perming my hair back then just because no stylist wanted to do my hair ,they literally used to lie to me that "oh she's not available now blah blahhhh"
But i learnt to manage my own hair now that I'm natural again
I’m so glad u posted this! I deal with the same things! I try to bring my own things and do my own hair to save everyone some time and sanity because many stylists are afraid to even get near my head!
Anya Ball it’s so sad that we have to sometimes bring our own hair products / do our hair on set. Most of the time hair stylists know who the model is or what kind of hair they have when they accept the job! It’s just laziness.
Hannah Mussette for real! I try to keep my best to show them products and show them how I do my hair to try to teach a bit, but it is what it is!
The passion Hannah has about her beautiful hair is amazing. The way she speaks about her hair is only improving the situation for curly girls/ black hair. A goddess.
Wow I’m not even surprised with this knowledge I could just imagine what a person with locs has to go through 😕
3:24 omg I hate when they say, " it looks good just the way it is." and I'm wearing a messy ponytail and my hair is semi dry! Or the other girls with straight hair get cool hairstyles and they just fluff my hair and I go. I feel your pain, I hate it too. It gets old. Get people that can do OUR hair!
like natural hair is so diverse, u can do so many cool looks with it. I just hate how lazy some of these hairstylist is.
How do they respond when you say no to heating or straightening your hair?
Aspiring Femininity they are usually cool about it and look frazzled but it makes me feel like this emoji on the inside (😈😈) because I’m actually forcing them to put effort into my hair at that point
“People are not gonna love my hair the way I love my hair.” GIRL if that ain’t the lords own truth 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I grew up as a model from a very young age and I remember whenever I went for a shoot my mom would ALWAYS have to straighten my hair the night before. They loved my skin and features (I’m mixed with black and puertorican) but didn’t like my hair texture. Luckily I have 3b/3c curls so they can be straightening really quickly and I had a lot of length but it was always such a hassle. Glad I quit, the industry was toxic af.
There is nothing wrong with the your hair embrace it
I'm Eurasian with 2C hair and I'm also sick of stylists busting out the straightening iron the minute they see my hair because they don't know how to work with my hair type. An actress named Jasika Nicole wrote a whole post about this same issue on her IG where she talked about a hairstylist cutting off 4 inches of her hair when he was only supposed to trim it because he didn't know how to work with curly hair and her bad haircut had to be written into the show's script so the audience didn't think there was a time cut. Stop calling yourself a professional hair stylist if you can only work with one type of hair texture and stop calling yourself a professional makeup artist if you can only work with one type of skin tone.
My whole family is white but I have 3b to 3c curls and nobody knows how to take care of it . As I got older I started doing research and understood my hair. I hate when someone touches it because they don’t know that it causes frizz when you pull . 😂
Same ... whenever I let my curls down my mom would be like your hair is damaged or you should detangle your hair and put it in a bun ( because the curls would be more straight ) but i'm trying to make her understand that curls aren't bad or damaged hair
Yess!! 👏👏👏 Thank you for speaking up about this. There's literally no excuse for a stylist not knowing how to do ALL hair types. They just don't want to learn how.
it’s not even that hard to learn how to do natural hair. my mom used to straighten my hair everyday till I was able to do hair by myself and took me about 2 days to learn how to take care of my curls. and I just watched TH-cam videos lol.
Same here!
freckles . literally same. I’ve been natural for about a month now and it’s so easy to take care of!
Y'all lucky, I just learned how to care for it after 2 years of trial and error😪😪
She's even lucky she's not the kinky 4c or else she'd be shaving her head like those models do.
@@Cutecare true. Whenever I see a darkskin model she almost always has little hair.
Girl, your video was so eye open I've also been so insecure to start modelling because of my natural hair and also my weight, thanks for shedding light on it. 💕
Girl you are beautiful . No need to doubt yourself💕
Also natural is sooo beautiful , i didn't like my hair in the beginning . I thought it was to big and different . Now i love my natural hair . I know you slay your hair 💕
They dont let you guys recommend hairstylists?
GSW Power I’m sure the top models are able to but no not for me
This is so awesome. They’re not many people who talk about this subject but it is definitely something that needs to be brought up more often. Thank you❤️
I love how you speak up in this video!! Giving other naturals the courage to be bold and confident when they are exposed to persons who don't care for their hair👏👏 Beautiful❤💯
Wow, you would think by now the industry would get it. If you’re going to have a natural hair model book a hairstylist that specializes in natural hair....glad you are putting your foot down about your hair. Our hair is beautiful as is, no need to change it.
Thank u Hannah this world needs to know curly hair can not be changed because of beauty standards!!!!! They are the ones who gotta change the way they look at it 👊👊
So as a model are you allowed to do your own hair?And do you feel comfortable with these hair stylist doing your hair not knowing if they could potentially mess it up?
Thank you for sharing sis! I know it isn’t fair, but I suggest that if you have to take control or assist in styling your own hair, that needs to be added as a part of your compensation during negotiations!
You need to contact Anthony Dickey of Hair Rules Salon. This should be the only person to ever touch your hair for a shoot. EVER!!🤗🤗🤗
I have type 1A hair and I like it but it gets boring sometimes cuz you can’t curl, I wish I had beautiful big curly hair like yours but I still love my hair and accept it❤️
Girl I see VS models hair looking crazy and the straight haired girls looking fine . Not ok . Everybody gotta slay . PERIODT
girl your hair is amazing and i think that hairstylists should THANK THERE GOD for u cause its so special and just different in its own amazing way and I'm telling you trust me people suffer for hours trying to get your hair but girl you can get it without any stress so never let these people get u down ❤
So much respect for you girl use your platform and shed light I’m here for it!! 🙌🏽 I hope I can become a natural hairstylist one day so models, actresses etc won’t have to go through this! One day 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you for this because I’m trying to get into natural hair modeling and I’ve been doing research on it and you’re the first one came up ,this is absolutely amazing,thank so much!! You are very brave and you have no idea how many people you have inspired!
OMG, I’m not a model but I can for sure relate to this!! Even just going to a salon before I knew how to do my own hair & getting looked at like this. Like “I” was the problem bc of my hair. Smh, thank you for this video!
This is a very much needed video! I feel you 200%, even though I am not a model, I understand your struggle. They shouldn’t be considered hair professionals if they can’t do black hair. Btw, love the curls 🥰🥰
I am so glad that finally this issue is being addressed. I am so proud that you are stepping out to say this. Much love and respect for you! I love my natural hair and your hair is beautiful! 💛💛
I thought i was the only one! So happy you posted this video shedding light and allowing us naturals to not feel alone. Everything you said I have experienced onset before and only a few cases where I've felt worry-free. Im praying that the industry will change ❤
People are not gonna love my hair the way I love my hair wow facts💕💖
this is sooo important. this is also an issue with makeup artist in the industry who barely do makeup, if any, for black (especially darker skin tones) models because they aren’t prepared with the proper shades. Once I was doing makeup for a fashion show and all of the black models gravitated to my station (bc i was the only black MUA) and they expressed all of the instances they’ve experienced where MUA’s only put eyeshadow and no face makeup bc they didnt have their shade or couldnt color match them. i even had a MUA ask “do you have a color for her?” bluntly in a models face with no shame.. The model industry is evolving but theres still a lot of things that need to be addressed
Thank you so much Hannah for sharing this and being brave, it is never right for companies or anyone to view others as less and treat them with less respect, it’s important people speak out so we can demand equality & progress and getting backlash is honestly grounds for a lawsuit. I’ve always enjoyed modeling but haven’t done it much professionally yet (mostly volunteer work), and listening to your specific examples is helpful.
Just sharing this to help others: Once I was asked if I’d like to come to a hair school for a curly hair workshop and I gladly accepted as I had had pretty good experiences volunteering there for years and liked interacting with & supporting the students (but did end up doing my own hair one time before a show because they neglected me /didn’t know what they were doing, now I remember). The workshop was being led by a white woman who claimed to know curly hair. She let the student wash me, who of course proceeded to wash like she would any straight-haired person, resulting in my tight curls becoming unnecessarily tangled. Then while back in the chair under the teacher’s supervision, she began to timidly try to section and detangle my hair, and once I felt she was causing a big matted area to form, I stopped and started giving suggestions. The teacher kept trying to silence me and tell me she knew what she was doing, and I raised my voice and protested, which led to us arguing and I had to leave. As you note, curly hair is more fragile and I know my hair; once a section has tangles combed incorrectly into it, with my fine hair, sometimes there’s no going back but to cut it, and it was my body they were damaging. All they had to do was be humble and listen to me, and I would’ve saved them time & effort as they were doing my hair incorrectly. I had been natural for four years at that point and had modeled with them in shows about 5 times.
And to make things worse, as I left, someone at the front desk asked if I would sign a form that I would not model there again. I was younger & didn’t know better, so I signed it. But I didn’t have to and should not have signed it, because I did nothing wrong, just stand up to being abused and disrespected. I’m looking back now and realizing how I encountered racism and bad makeup, etc in many cases, and plan to respond better in the future.
So if this happens to anyone else, don’t sign a form or anything like that if you did nothing wrong. And yes I’ll name drop, because this is about calling for equality, and after visiting an AVEDA hair school in a different state for a haircut recently, I saw and heard from the student & teacher themselves that they still don’t prioritize teaching the students about textured hair, how to braid, etc. The woman who worked on me was so sweet and I was nice and supportive of her, & she admitted she was scared to do textured hair. Even the black woman who was the instructor working on me ripped my hair out unnecessarily, though, and would not listen when I told her my hair needed to be finger detangled before brushing. (It was very tangled after being washed in a non-curl friendly way).
Anyway, the hair school that allowed me to be disrespected and abused and then asked me to sign a form not to come back was AVEDA Institute Chapel Hill, NC. But even in another state years later the case is still the same. AVEDA doesn’t bother to really educate students on textured hair.
Great video Hannah!! I’ve been subscribed to you even before you cut your hair and you did the school videos with your friends. It’s great to see how far you’ve come by just being yourself!!! The world will attack the pure light in this world, but I thank God for your life. God bless you ❤️
Omgggg I’ve experienced this back stage !!! Everything you said was FACTS !! That’s sooo true about them rushing to do your hair ..I get to set on time and you’re rushing to do the bare minimum on my head ..just errrkss my nerves ...it’s sad but I bring straight and curly wigs now just in case hairstylists don’t know what to do with my hair 😑
I have naturally curly hair and I have anxiety anytime someone straightens it because I have had my hair damaged from it 😭 it too so long to grow out and to have some one who is supposed to know what they are doing damage your hair is painful. Thanks for speaking out. You and your hair are beautiful.
I have experienced this so much.. IN JAMAICA!!!! A predominately black country! You’d think they’d know how to do curly natural hair but no! It’s ridiculous! I have sooooo much damage now because of this! Omg! Thank you for speaking up!
Thank you Hannah! much love girly💛
I’m glad you made this video. Very interesting indeed.. my mom used to be a model and she would state how hairdressers would struggle with her hair or just get overwhelmed of how thick and curly it was. Sometimes they wouldn’t even accept her to do photo shoots because they didn’t know how to properly style the hair.
Your hair is so gorgeous I actually can’t do perfectly poofy and round. Your beautiful!
I really love this video, this is the third time I've watched it. I love when people share their full truth with confidence. You're educating people and making them more aware. IGNORANCE BE GONE!!
hi! i just wanted to say i’ve watched u since u cut ur hair into a twa and honestly i’m so glad you’ve been able to pursue your career and i’ve seen u grow from a quirky sweet teen into the beautiful women u are inside and out 💖
Many, many, many moons ago as a model wearing my natural hair, I wound up with a lot of funky pinned up hairstyles. Smh that it's still the same. Couldn't do it then...can't do it know. You are beautiful love...keep being unapologetically you.
I like Imaan Hammam and how shock rocks her natural hair
she’s so beautiful 🥺
you were one of the main reasons why i decided to embrace my fro and stop trying to weigh it down and make it smaller ❤️
Honestly I love your hair, you look gorgeous!!!! Hairstylists just need to learn their hair, that's their job. I have the opposite hair. But I love haircare and hair. I watch so many hair videos some with and some without my hair type. But what would the world look boring if everyone and everyone's hair looked alike.
Love the insight 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I agree! It’s so hard being a curly girl
Hi Hannah i'v been wathching you since your first big chop i'm from France and i say a big YES to this video ! I am as frustrated as you when i hear what you say, i don't understand how you can call yourself a full hairstylist when you only know how to do one type of hair, it's like a dermathologist who only know how to deal with oily skin and not the rest, that doesn't make any sense ! Thank you for sharing your experience let's hope people will finally hear this
Thank you so much for sharing this and speaking on this issue !! Not gonna lie to hear this going on is kinda scary and sad especially how I’m an aspiring model and I have BIG thick hair . I would probably have to bring my own products and do my hair , bc if they just see my hair alone they would probably run:(
This was so eye opening and informative. I'm not a model but an aspiring actress and I've experienced the same thing on sets. It's crazy. Great video!
Thank you for speaking out on this because this needed to be said and sometimes I’m sitting in that chair in that Dominican salon and Ik for a fact their talking smack about me and my sisters hair.i was too shy to speak up about it but next I will.she even told to stop putting oils in my hair bc It was “too oily”.like what???stop trying to educate me when it’s MY HAIR.
You hair is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences. I hope that this helps lead the way to modeling industry learning more.
I'm currently a 2nd year student in hairdressing and I would love to know how to work with your type of hair. I've always adored and dreamed of having hair so curly and massive ever since I was a kid. I do have natural curls but nothing compared to that beautiful african hair some people are so blessed with, I wish you better experiences in your work gorgey hun 💜
LOVE the eyeshadow!!! you are just stunning!!!
Your hair is the prettiest hair I ever seen😍 I’m so jealous of how pretty your hair is lol
Had similar experience at beauty school. Was the last to leave that night around 10:30. It was like owner was mad at me. Before even starting my hair she complained of volume and density. I just wanted a set. It turned out pretty but I wouldn't go back. She kept saying oh I'll do your hair again. I have a lot of hair but it's manageable and as a hair school owner I provided a very teachable moment.
Bruh some white guy texted me yesterday saying “ you needa mow that thing on yo head”
Honey Strawberry Apples wwowww
Wtf. 😡 People are just rude. Sorry you had to be on the receiving end of that man's stupidity.
Honey Strawberry Apples lmao that is so messed up😭😭😭
I had some guy saying he wanted to sleep on my fro???? BOY NO
@Honey Strawberry Apples I hope you told him he needed to educate that thing *in* his head and blocked him.
You are so beautiful. I’m here to learn something about your incredible hair texture. Your natural hair is stunning! I hope you find stylists do make the effort to learn more.
bring out the light girrrl we need it
This is such an important topic to bring up/ discuss. I really appreciated this upload. Lots of great advice and knowledge in this one.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your hair is absolutely BEAUTIFUL
I’m so glad your making this video because I’m trying to get into the industry and I want to be able to wear my natural hair and not feel the need to have my hair straightened.
Gorgeous hair!!!!! Girl continue to slay with the natural hair 🤎🤎 and let them know
i hope to meet you one day. you are the only TH-cam i’ve seen with the same hair type as me. i think you’re actually a queen and i admire you.
You are literally so pretty wth?!?!
I’ve reached the point where I ask in advance what styles can be worn for the runway or shoot and I just do it myself. Thank you for making this video😭❤️.
Your hair is looking fabulous
Girl, I hardly know how to do my own hair and I have very coily/curly hair. I wouldn’t expect someone else to know how to do it. Especially when curly hair reacts different no matter if it looks like another head in the room.
BUTTT the “modeling” or “beauty industry” could hire more diverse stylists who know how to do natural hair. 🤷🏽♀️ just a thought. I understand the frustration. I can hear it in your voice. Hopefully there’s a resolution.
I’ve been to so many jobs and they haven’t bothered to do my hair and yet have done other (European) models hair. It is really upsetting and you feel left out. But when there is a SKILFUL hairstylist you are definitely right thru are always rushed!!! 🙌🏽👏🏽
YOUR HAIR IS SOO PRETTY I LOVE YUR COILS 😍😍😍
I agree! I’ve been wanting to be a model for a while but am lowkey scared cuz I don’t want my hair to get damaged. I have natural 3a curls and am afraid they’re just gonna stick straightening irons to my hair. I also am into clean beauty since I have really reactive skin and kinda don’t want whatever brands they think are best 🤔
Wow, like seriously, hire some damn black hair stylist.
Your hair is so amazing!!
The small curls look so cute >~
Wowww you snapped sis but I’m so glad you did! So happy that you shared your experience!
bro i remember some years back when you were first applying for agencies with your mum when you first cut your hair absolutely love you
Its even worse when ppl that look like you cant do it or look at it like they dont understand. Its sad. But thats one of the reasons i stopped going to the salon and helped motivate me to learn how to do my own hair once i went back to my curly hair...plus i was getting heat damage on my natural hair from getting it flat ironed so much, because my stylist didn't know how to do natural hair styles. So even tho its kinda sad..it was a blessing in disguise for me to be forced to learn what i was hesitant to learn. Im no longer dependent in that way and it was the best choice ever! Ive always loved my curls, so did my mom...just didn't understand it before. Knowledge is power!
I came running 🏃🏾🏃🏾🏃🏾 and sis starting hitting with facts 👏🏾😌
