I’ve been on the fence… Should I post Natural Hair inspired videos weekly? Let me know if you enjoy watching…
This week’s natural hair inspiration is Ms. Janelle Monae: “Tightrope (Wondamix)” (feat. B.o.B, Lupe Fiasco). I watched a clip for the making the video, and Janelle Monae said something along the lines…
We have to keep our balance in it all
Not getting to high off accolades and praises
And not to low of opinions and critics
This is the tight rope
Push that movement
This is what you say to the people who try to oppress you
You tip on it
You tip on it

I am very excited about the month of October!! Why you ask…Well I will be attending TWO specifically natural hair events! My face hurts from all my smiling. During eBriading.net’s December 2009 Sanata Magazine Launch, I had the opportunity to meet several great HAIR-Lovers like Darrryl Goodman.
Right to Left: Ansylla (My Hairitage), Daryl Goodman (Low Country Expo), “Sy” Sahande (eBraiding.net), Chatto (Chatto Skin Care), and mee Lady Kinnks.
Since 2006 Darryl and his associates have hosted Low Country Exposure, Fashion and Beauty Seminar in Charleston SC. The Seminar focused on the Fashion and Beauty Industry through classroom lectures, CEU classes, Fashion Show and product demonstration. In 2009, they added a Natural Beauty Seminar in October, with the focus on the Natural Hair and its growing choice by Women for its styles!!
