History of National Curl Crush Day
National Curl Crush Day began in 2021, and it was started by the haircare brand Carol’s Daughter. This celebration aimed to empower people with curly hair to embrace and celebrate their natural texture.
Carol’s Daughter launched the day to counter “curl envy,” where many people feel pressure to change or hide their natural curls. Through this day, the brand encouraged individuals to see their curls as beautiful, unique, and worth showing off. Carol’s Daughter prompted people to post pictures and stories celebrating their curls!
The day not only promotes self-love and acceptance but also highlights the importance of visibility and inclusivity in the beauty world. The holiday has since grown, inviting more people each year to join in, share their stories, and build a community that celebrates every curl and coil as it is.
This day is about self-acceptance and honoring natural beauty. National Curl Crush Day encourages people to move beyond narrow beauty standards and embrace the natural volume, texture, and style that curls bring.
Many celebrate by treating their curls to nourishing products, styling sessions, or simply by sharing stories of self-love and acceptance.
Through this uplifting celebration, curl enthusiasts everywhere come together to celebrate individuality and inspire others to appreciate their natural look.
