Hey people,
On June 8th, I attended Naija Hair Can Grow's Salon Day Out event. It was jam-packed with people interested in healthy hair care (relaxed, loc'd, natural, transitioning, etc) and also beauty and health. There were quite a number of vendors and people who gave presentations or demos on their products. This was where I was used in the
Rhassoul Clay demonstration with Kemi Lewis. I just thought to share some pictures from the event, and if you've never attended a hair meetup, this might inspire you to try one soon. There's
Naturals in the City and also
Locs Appreciation Day tomorrow in Lagos. I plan on attending both, and with my handy dandy camera! Atilola will also be on ground at both, selling the wonderful African Naturalistas hair products, so come with your cash!

| This volunteer has natural hair and opted to try out the Texture Manageability System, which claims that natural hair can be straight for 4 to 6 weeks, and reversed back to the natural texture afterwards. |
 |
| I didn't get a picture of the straight hair, so I'll borrow a pic from Naija Hair Can Grow |

I'll write about Beautiful Textures Texture Manageability System next week. I feel a little weird about the prospect and I'd like to read what other people think.
Have a nice weekend!

Did I just see palm oil on the AN stand!
ReplyDeleteLOL. AN was not present at the event, as a vendor. Berry was the one who represented us.
DeleteI don fear o, twas d moisturising treatment table with an AN product. But I still see somthing like palm oil sha isit?
DeleteOkay. Now I see it. It is Dabs stand. She is fond of the palm oil DC.
DeleteLol. AN wasn't there with a stand. But Dabs (NHCG) mixed our glycerine, and palm oil with other ingredients for the moisturizing DC treatment.
DeleteIt was a fun day indeed...lots to see & learn, products to buy and best of all, people to meet. It was a pleasure to meet you Berry at the salon day out event and again today at NITC. I strongly recommend aattending meetups like these for inspiration if nothing else...More grease ladies! Keep up the good work.
