Groups Celebrate Diversity of African-American Hair
Nearly 100 people packed The Alloy Studios in Friendship recently for discussion groups and a fashion show spotlighting the beauty and diversity of natural African-American hair. Many were part of the local group It’s a Natural Thang, which educates and supports women and men in their journey to let chemical agents and relaxers grow out and natural hair textures and curl patterns grow in.
