About CURLYTREATS

Founded in 2013, CURLYTREATS Festival was created to celebrate natural hair in all its beauty and glory. What began as hundreds gathering has grown into the UK’s biggest natural hair festival, welcoming thousands from across the UK and beyond. We honour every texture and every journey – from your first twist-out to your favourite protective styles – while embracing health, wellness, and self-care. CURLYTREATS isn’t just a festival; it’s a movement, a celebration, and a homecoming for your crown.

Philosophy & mission

Our mission is to empower you to embrace your natural hair and heritage. We are committed to creating inclusive spaces that celebrate diversity, promote self-love, and foster meaningful community connections. Through education, authentic representation, and joyful celebration, we aim to inspire confidence and pride in natural beauty.

​​Conferences

At CURLYTREATS, we go beyond celebration – we educate, empower, and inspire. Our conferences bring together experts, thought leaders, and trailblazers to explore topics that matter to our community. From natural haircare to health, wellness, and cultural pride, each session sparks important conversations. Our goal is to continually create space for learning, sharing, and growing together – building confidence, connections, and collective power.

Workshops

Our hands-on workshops are created to empower, educate, and celebrate creativity. Led by experts, artists, and authors, each session gives you practical tools to care for your hair, express your heritage, and embrace your authentic self. From braiding classes and DIY haircare product making to creative painting sessions and inspiring talks with authors, our workshops offer real skills and fresh inspiration. It’s all about learning, connecting, and growing – together.

Marketplace

Our vibrant marketplace brings the CURLYTREATS community to life. Explore a curated selection of brands and discover must-have haircare, beauty, wellness, and lifestyle products. Connect directly with the creators behind every product, and celebrate creativity, entrepreneurship, and cultural pride. It’s more than shopping – it’s a chance to support, uplift, and invest in our community.

Kids' Zone

At CURLYTREATS, we celebrate every generation, including our little kings and queens. Our Kids’ Zone is a joyful space where children can explore creativity, culture, and confidence through hands-on activities, storytelling, and arts and crafts. It’s a safe and empowering environment where young minds can learn, play, and be inspired by their roots. We’re planting seeds of pride, one curl and one smile at a time.
