  • What fabulous morning bed hair is for some people is not always the same for curly heads...
  • Hair we are! In Kolkata, which is a gorgeous city, but humidity is a curly head’s biggest enemy...
  • We all love our Bengali moms but every day before school she pulled, tugged and fought with your hair, and begged you to comb it (didn’t she?)
  • That one day you got dressed up for a party and, thanks to the curly hair gods, it was a good hair day! But then, your friends said...
  • A visit to the salon was filled with anticipation... what if?
  • And what's school life without your besties watching things disappear into your mane?
