Hair Love: Braiding, Twisting, and More for Textured Hair

Textured hair, built for caregivers who are learning.🪮❤️

Caring for textured hair can feel intimidating, especially if you’re just getting started. This upbeat, beginner-friendly class supports caregivers who want to learn the basics of textured hair care, plaiting, and natural styling in a welcoming, low-pressure environment. You’ll explore best practices, tools, products, and techniques, with plenty of time to ask questions and focus on what matters most to you.

This session is especially helpful for multiracial families, foster or adoptive families, and anyone caring for a child with textured hair. Participants are welcome to bring a child or loved one to practice on and receive guidance tailored to that person’s hair; if you do, it’s best their hair arrive washed and blown out. Coming solo is perfectly okay too—mannequins and products will be provided for demonstration and hands-on practice. The goal is simple: to help hair care become a positive, empowering experience for both caregiver and child.

What to Expect:

• Guidance on caring for Black, coily, and curly hair
• Demonstrations of braiding, twisting, and styling techniques
• Education on products, tools, and hair care routines
• A supportive, judgment-free space to learn and ask questions

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESENTER
My name is Talor Byrd and I am the owner of "Talor's Twists, Braids, and Curly Days!" My small business is designed to educate folks on how to care for their and their loved ones' textured hair. My focus is on healthy hair care for all curl types through education on natural and protective styles, as well as products, tools, and techniques. 

I found my way into this business through my passion for caring for my family's hair, and as a career educator who wanted to share that passion and knowledge with others. I am a white woman, my wife is Black, we have a biracial daughter, and we have three very different curl textures! It has always been important to me, as a wife and mother, to be well informed and to understand how to care for their hair. So with that motivation I started learning and grew to love curly and textured hair care! Some of my favorite styles to provide for my family and clients are Two-Strand Twists, Finger Coils, Stitch Braids, and Ponytail styles for littles!

For ages 18 and up. Just drop in!
Space will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Questions? Call Katie at 543-7675 ext. 2559 or e-mail katie@bcplib.org.
