TV host Faustina Agolley was given the name “Fuzzy” by her friends in primary school as an affectionate nickname based on her hair.
But in her teenage years, she found her high school was not understanding of her protective hairstyle, calling it “extravagant".
“That felt extremely isolating. And that was part of a series of reasons as to why I skipped school a lot,” she said.
When she stopped trying to tame her locks, something unexpected happened.
To hear Faustina's story, and from others who have made fateful decisions — for better or worse — watch Insight episode Fateful Decisions, which originally aired in 2024, on Tuesday 7 April at 8.30pm on SBS or on SBS On Demand.
