Storytelling and information sharing are what the NaturallyCurly community was built on, way back in 1998. Frustrated by the lack of information on curly hair and the limited products available in the marketplace, two journalists from the Austin American-Statesman, Michelle Breyer and Gretchen Heber, started NaturallyCurly to empower other women who shared the same frustrations by sharing the information that mainstream media was missing. They’ve done that with input from beauty writers, cosmetic chemists, stylists, social influencers and community members.
We are currently sourcing for expert freelance writers. If you have beauty writing experience and useful tips to share with our community then we want to hear from you! Your stories have made NaturallyCurly what it is today. Here’s how to share your pitch with us.
