'We just teach hair here; we don't teach race.' The Tricoci University of Beauty Culture in Fishers teaches all of its students the history, evolution, and style of African hair braiding.
"It originated in 3500 BC," Tempest Golden, the assistant campus director at Tricoci University of Beauty Culture in Fishers, told WRTV. She teaches the history and styles of African hair braiding.Braided hairstyles are still a way of identifying oneself in the Black and African American communities. However, as time has progressed, the styles have transcended into a form of individual expression and protection.
"I love everything about this industry. I love how it's constantly evolving," Golden said of being in cosmetology."I love how this industry, with braiding, and everything, is ever-changing." Just as recently, a Washington woman's TikTok went viral last year after sharing her experience being turned down by 26 salons when she inquired if they could do her 4c curly hair. Several commenters who said they were stylists claimed they either weren't offered courses on different textures while in beauty school or it cost extra to get into those specific classes.
Golden says she has white students who get excited to learn traditionally Black hairstyles and flat iron ethnic hair.
