I am not a woman of color, obviously. But my best friend Tialia is always sharing tips with me, hinting that she'd love to see some hairstyles and tutorials that will work for her. Truthfully, I think the internet in general needs more resources and hair tutorials for people of color. So, here are the ones Tialia and I talk about most. If there are tutorials you love, styles you adore, or tips you want to share that aren't listed here, please include them!
