Happy shopping!As a queer Pakistani woman living in America, it’s hard to feel fully connected to my culture.
As a child, I remember sitting at the foot of her chair as she massaged oil into my hair—an Ayurvedic practice known as—to help it grow longer and stronger. Although a part of me knew that the process connected me to my culture, I initially resented it because it made my hair greasy and “othered” me in the predominantly white schools I attended. In my initial pursuit of fitting into Eurocentric beauty standards, my South Asian traditions didn’t seem to have a place.
It was only as an adult that I found a new appreciation for my grandmother’s methods and the cultural ties that came along with them. After experiencing rapid thinning as a result of stress, color damage, and too-tight ponytails, I realized it was time to give my hair some much-needed rehabilitation. I stopped highlighting my strands and started to embrace their natural darkness, and once the old dye grew out, I was left with a strong foundation that I could start tending to with masks.
