About Kinnks
January 4, 2009 we posted our first entry, My Natural Hair Story. Lady Kinnks presents, the Psychology of Natural Hair. A blog is born! Before taking on this enormous task, I struggled.

Race, age and gender influence my experience, but it is amazing how different your experiences are by just having natural hair! Can you believe there are enough stories to full a blog? Lady Kinnks blog is year old today!! Within 2009 our Kinnks Directory grew to over 400 links all dedicated to natural hair! We also successfully opened our shoppe, with three types of Kinnks Tees.
