YASMINE EE, 19, PART-TIME MODEL
"My relationship with my hair has been pretty frustrating because it's been hard trying to tame the waves. I've tried rebonding, but over the years, I've started to embrace my curls more. While my hair is difficult to maintain, especially in hot and humid Singapore, it's something that I love about myself because I inherited curls from my mother. And with curly hair, you'll never have to worry about adding volume or body. It's a bit of a love-hate relationship. Still, I see my natural curls as a gift, and a reflection of my Chinese, Malay, and Indian heritage and roots."

"In the past, I had relatively straight and fine hair. Over the years it's transitioned into the waves I have now, and I'm starting to realize that my hair might be curlier than I thought. Until recently, I didn't really know how to manage and take care of my curls. As my curl pattern is uneven, I'm sometimes hesitant to wear it as it is, because. I feel like it's not the same 'beautiful, big curly hair' that people envision. I would always brush out my curls or straighten my mane as it was easier to manage. However, I've noticed that whenever I wear my natural hair, I get a lot of compliments. The more I look after my curls, the more I love them.
