See. Touch. Listen. Understand.

Every curl tells a story—if you know how to read it. In this transformative class, Original Moxie Founder & Curl Expert Rachel Blistein introduces the Crown + Core™ approach: a holistic, sensory-based system that connects the science of hair with the intuition of the senses.

 You’ll learn to interpret what curls reveal through texture, movement, and response using our Hair Type Personality™ and Moisture Balancing™ tools. This isn’t about memorizing product routines—it’s about awakening your sensory intelligence, or Curl IQ,  and learning to map each client’s unique hair story.

Grounded in research and guided by empathy, Crown + Core™ helps you restore balance between scalp, strand, and self—one touch at a time.

This course provides an overview of the Crown + Core approach, and includes: 

  • An overview of our client-centered consultation process.
  • Step-by-step instructions to perform a Diagnostic Hair and Scalp assessment.
  • A guide to quickly and efficiently understanding and enhancing curls through an understanding of their unique 'Hair Type Personalities™'. 
  •  An introduction to Moisture Balancing™, our curl expression methodology centered on meeting the unique needs of diverse hair types and optimizing health.  


At each step, you will learn to identify important sights, sounds, and sensations - essential clues that guide the way to hair health and curl expression.

Please note: The Crown + Core Method is demonstrated using the Original Moxie product line and Moisture Detox™ Treatment.   For this reason, we highly recommend viewing our free Product Knowledge 101  and Introduction to the Moixture Detox™ Classes before taking the digital course.  For more information, contact Joe Harlow at [email protected].

Founder & CEO

Rachel Blistein

At Original Moxie®, our business is personal. It started in 2009 with Founder Rachel Blistein’s quest to understand and heal her dry, damaged curls. Her kitchen chemistry experiments led her to create a full line of natural hair care products, each one designed to meet the needs of specific hair types. After launching her business, she embarked upon a 4-year study that included over 1,000 individuals. The data she collected on Curl Pattern, Shape, Porosity, and Texture allowed her to identify characteristic patterns, which took shape as Hair Type Personalities™ and became the basis for the Crown + Core™ method, a holistic system that connects the science of hair with the intuition of the senses.
