Representation Matters

Unfortunately, our hair has a long history of being politicised and stigmatised in society. However, now more than ever, Black women should feel empowered to wear our natural kinky curly hair in corporate/professional settings with pride.

The more we do, slowly but surely, our tight curls will no longer be considered as “unprofessional”. Furthermore, employers cannot discriminate against an employee wearing an afro, because that’s discrimination against our natural state!

Something we cannot control, no matter how much we attempt to “tame” it with harmful chemicals, it will continue to grow kinky curly.

Black queens, please remember that young Black girls are looking at us to set the example, so lets all do our best to rock our gorgeous gravity defying hair with pride ❤️✊
