Black Hair

Although natural hair has recently become embraced and reclaimed, there still remain barriers to accepting and wearing it regularly. I created this short series, although not extensive, to celebrate Black hair in all forms, showcasing safe spaces for Black hair, example hair routines, the natural hair journey, and the versatility of Black hair.

“I don't miss my straight hair, but it'd be a lie to say that navigating the world with an afro isn't difficult sometimes." - Sophie (above)

"My natural hair is good enough. It doesn't need to be Type 3 to be good enough. My Type 4 is already good enough ... I saw a quote on Twitter where this girl was like, 'I want my daughter's proudest moments with her natural hairstyles,' so that's what motivates me." - Efosa (right)

"I want to be surrounded by loved ones." - Bernard, Owner of Darcy's Barbershop in Boston
