For thereaders that are not familiar with you, could you share a little bit about your background and why you decided to create this book?: Yeah, absolutely. So, I am an entrepreneur, a writer, and also a new mother. In 2020, I had my first daughter.
: Raising a young girl, how have the experiences young Black girls are having shifted from when you were younger?: Immensely. I think when it comes to the lack of acceptance when I grew up, the lack of education, you were seeing no-lye relaxers, it was really Eurocentric beauty standards and that was it. There was really no room to be unapologetically Black and wear your crowns without somebody criticizing or making you feel less of. So today we see so many different hair products.
