Textures of Being at NTU ADM Portfolio

Hair texture inclusivity is a growing concern in Singapore, where diverse hair types are often overlooked in mainstream beauty and fashion industries. Textures of Being is a project that aims to promote greater understanding and acceptance of natural hair in Singapore, and to challenge prevailing beauty standards that prioritise Eurocentric beauty ideals. This project encourages more ‘hair inclusive’ conversations and hopes to educate the general masses about the beauty of textured hair. It is also an opportunity to showcase the stories and experiences of people living in a straight hair world like Singapore; and most importantly, to create a sense of appreciation for the textured hair community.
