“Welcome to my channel!”
Katie and Yves speak with LaToya Ebony about the massive influence of Black haircare YouTubers.
Black haircare YouTubers built a brand-new storytelling genre from the ground up. The glamorous intros, all the free tutorials, the clutch recommendations … where would we be without them?
In this episode, Yves and Katie give them their much-deserved credit. They speak with LaToya Ebony, a content creator and actor who’s been giving us haircare game on YouTube for over a decade.

“I love telling stories. I love being able to turn on my camera and connect with people all around the world. I love the impact that I’m able to create, and I love the few opportunities for other people that I’ll hopefully be able to employ and help along with this process.”
“YouTube’s been around for a minute now, so it’s really a great archive of what everyone was doing with their hair.”
“I just think it is fascinating and very admirable to see how something seemingly started from some such a noble place — like sharing how to do hair and techniques for doing hair — is such a familial and warm and intimate thing.”
