From Vision to Movement: The Heart of Forever Curls Academy

What began as a simple vision in 2016 has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined.

Forever Curls Academy was created with one clear belief: curly hair deserves intentional, elevated education. What started as a desire to serve stylists more thoughtfully quickly became a movement rooted in mastery, confidence, and community.

Since its beginning, Forever Curls has taught classes in 15+ states and delivered curly hair education in 7 countries, creating a truly global community of artists committed to understanding curls at the highest level. What once felt local is now worldwide — connected by shared values, technique, and purpose.

As we approach our 10th year, we celebrate not just longevity, but impact. Forever Curls has become the authority and top destination for curly hair education by staying consistent, intentional, and deeply rooted in foundational excellence. We don’t chase trends — we teach mastery that lasts behind the chair.

Leysa often says that education is what connected her to the world — and that belief continues to shape everything Forever Curls stands for. Education has the power to unite artists across borders, cultures, and curl patterns, creating something bigger than any single class or technique.

Forever Curls Academy isn’t just where you learn curls —
it’s where you become part of a movement.

And as we step into our next decade, our mission remains the same: to educate with intention, lead with generosity, and continue building a global curl community — together. Start your journey with us here
