The Trials & Tribulations of Asian Hair (w/ 12 PELL)

No one is talking about Asian hair so in classic ANA fashion, we decided to talk about it non-stop for an hour.

(Most) Asian people have thick straight hair that's difficult to style and shape especially if you have no idea how to describe your ideal hair cut to the person cutting your hair. For people growing up in non-Asian communities with little access to hair stylists who know how to cut Asian hair, this can be a huge source of insecurity. That’s why this week the boys sat down with Tim Hui and Karho Leung from the popular NYC barbershop 12 PELL (you may have seen their viral videos on TikTok) to talk about the stress, trauma, but also all the joy that can come from having thick straight Asian hair! If you live in NYC, definitely go check out their shop!

It’s all right here on Asian Not Asian!
