Childhood Curls to a Fast Growing Beauty Brand: The Story Behind The Perfect Hair. Big hair was never just hair for Taryn Gill. It was identity, memory, and inspiration long before it became a business opportunity. Growing up with a “large fro of brown, curly, coily hair,” Taryn was surrounded by the influence of her mother, known as StyleGuru, whose bright red afro and bold curls left a lasting impression.
