Story
I am passionate about making a positive difference to people's lives, through education, knowledge and empowerment. I have worked with families and children for over 20 years and have been committed to promoting a positive sense of self identity and emotional well- being. Over the last 10 years, I have pursued my passion for healthy hair within the Black Community, self acceptance and self love , through the promotion of my natural leave in conditioning hair spray for healthy hair and scalp and education regarding a healthy hair care regime, via hair parties and healthy hair consultations at no charge.
I am now writing a book for women and one for children regarding understanding the science of Black hair, education of healthy hair, self acceptance and self love. True beauty starts with being yourself. 😘
The funds will support the publishing package, of support , guidance and mentoring as this is my first time writing a book. The funds will also pay for the illustrations in the children’s book , as this book is an educational and informative book, with a focus to inspire and encourage self love and self acceptance in our children to celebrate their hair from an early age through understanding the science of black hair and learning how easy our hair is to manage through education and changing the negative script that we as a community are passing to our children.

6 years agoHi Everyone I am still on track to complete my children's book before the end of the year, so it can be with the publishers , ready to support the final stages to hopefully be published beginning Feb 19. I can then use this platform to reach hundreds of children all over the world. I can then begin to complete my other book, for women both in the UK and outside. xxx

6 years agoHi Everyone I am still working on my books and over the last few weeks I have had 2 healthy hair parties, where I go to homes with a group of friends and or family members and provide education, support and guidance about understanding the science of black hair and how to achieve beautiful and healthy hair. Women and children are learning with open minds and are seeing great benefits to the look and feel of their hair. The groups are also supporting each other to keep motivated which is very typical of women all over the world. XXX
