Grey’s Anatomy ~ Baby Zola’s Hair
Grey’s Anatomy tackled the topic of white parents caring for their black children’s hair in last weeks episode. I really love the way it was handled (with humor & love). For those of you who don’t watch “Grey’s”. Dr. & Mrs Shepherd (a white couple) have adopted an African American child. I appreciate that the show expanded on this often untalked about issue. The clips are below. In this scene Dr Shepherd believes that a woman is racist because she stares at him and … Continue reading

Chocolate Chat Atlanta
I attended my very first and most definitely not last Chocolate Chat event this past Sunday and I had a fantastic time!! This event was hosted by Joined Forces of Atlanta. “Swarthy Daisy” was our MC. It was held at a trendy space in the Historic Edgewood area. When I imagine it in my mind, this is what conscious black Atlanta looks like. There were members of the Art Community in the house, (Musicians, Singers & Poets) The Health Community, (Doctors, Nutritionists, & refloxologists) and Vendors (Jewelry, Skin … Continue reading

Summertime is here and with it comes many fun activities. For kids with Natural Hair it’s important to find a style that will work for YOUR child.

My LittleChick has gorgeous super thick 4a/4b hair. Her hair is very dense and therefore it holds heat. It can be very uncomfortable for her if not styled correctly. Here are the things that … Continue reading
