Hair - we all have it in some shape or form. Perhaps it's something you haven't given much thought to - perhaps it's something that has shaped your life in profound ways.
In this episode, Carol unpacks some thoughts and stories about hair and the way that hair shapes our experiences and the experiences of those around us. What's considered acceptable and what's not? We need to be aware of the beauty standards we consciously or subconsciously subscribe to.
