Last week I posted photos from Salon Day Out, and today I want to give you a heads up and some upcoming hair events in Nigeria and Ghana as well. Before you head out, don't forget to read my guide on attending hair meetups! If you see anyone of us at the events, please be sure to say hello as we like meeting our readers :)
TOMORROW, JUNE 20TH - LAGOS - Naturals In The City
The theme for this meet up is KEEPING IT REAL. You really can't have a theme like that without a sex talk. Yep! You heard right. A S.E.X. talk. There is a lot that lots of ladies need to learn. I don't want to give too much away so I am going to just leave it here.
It is a hair meet up after all, so there will be hair talks. The beautiful Yellow Sisi will be one of the hair speakers. Although it is hair meet up, we try to cover all fronts - including keeping our body healthy. To this end, Esta Morenikeji, fitness guru and trainer, will be there to talk about the benefits of exercise and more.
Venue: The Social Place, 33 Sinari Daranijo Street, VI.
Time: 1:30 - 5:30

LAD is a day set aside to celebrate locs worldwide and Lagos will be holding it down with our 2nd meet up yet.....

SATURDAY, JULY 11TH - GHANA - Afrotastic
Afrotastic 2015 is where you have to be on the 11th July, 2015 at the Osu Presby Hall at 9am. It's more than just a meet up. Come n learn how to care for your hair, buy hair and skincare products and mingle with other naturals. There will be live demos, giveaways, good music and good food to buy and munch on.
Alright, so there's so much to do. If you know of any others happening around Africa, please let us know, so we can publish them.
Have a great weekend!
Berry Dakara.
