The Curl Dads Workshop

Hands-On Hair Care

for Fathers and Father Figures

Join us for a workshop where father and father figures learn to care for their children’s curly hair…with confidence

As Seen In
Our Story

We show up for
everything.

Sports. Homework. Building Confidence. We're there for all of it.
But when it came to our kids' natural hair, we had zero skills.

Our wives had hair day covered, and we respected every bit of it. But we wanted to be true partners in every part of parenting. We looked for a hands-on class built for dads. It didn't exist. So we built it.

"We're not professional stylists — we're dads who decided to stop sitting hair day out."

Your kids' curls are worth it. And so is the moment you create together.
