Lauren Speed-Hamilton: Bold & Beautiful
In the ever-expanding world of reality TV, very few personalities manage to capture the hearts of audiences around the world. One of those women is Lauren Speed-Hamilton whose appearance on the Netflix reality show ‘Love is Blind’ turned heads and sparked conversations about love, connection and lasting relationships.
Lauren first gained widespread recognition when she joined the ‘Love is Blind’ pods. The show’s unique concept involves singles meeting and forming relationships without seeing each other, relying solely on conversation to form emotional bonds. In this unusual setting began Lauren’s journey to find love.
From the beginning, Lauren’s warm and genuine personality made her stand out among the diverse cast. One thing about Lauren is that her hair has always been the star. Watching from home, the Hype Hair team has checked out her versatility in styles ranging from protective styles, natural hair and extensions.

We got to catch up with Lauren to discuss EVERYTHING from her vacation plans, hair disasters and beauty secrets to her shenanigans.
Lauren grew up in what some consider the hair capital of the country, Detroit! She found herself inspired by the hair culture there, even Hype Hair magazine. When asked about a hair horror story growing out, she wistfully recalled the result of a curly style gone awry after using foam rollers. (We can all relate) More recently, you can find Lauren rocking boho locks that fly and look effortless. However, she credits a good silk bonnet as the hair accessory she can’t live without.
For the holidays she prefers a cute but cozy look at home as she usually hosts family and friends. Surprisingly, her husband Cameron is quite the chef and does the heavy lifting in the kitchen for the holidays.
We know our Hype Hair crew is always catching up and jotting down beauty hacks, products, and tools, so take notes (wink, wink). Lauren notes that no matter what you should have a silk bonnet or scarf, no matter what style you’re wearing. To keep her skin glowing and hydrated during the cold winter, she credits an oldie but a goodie, Nutregena’s sesame oil. We love and live for products that keep us fit over the years and this is definitely one of them.
