Last Call | Sunshine and Fros is Tomorrow!

Click to get tickets 
July 26th, is almost here, which means that I've been a bit busy polishing the details of the event. I am very excited for this event because it's filled with MANY firsts. My first summer event, first time i'm giving something away to EVERYONE, first time a popular American company is sponsoring the event, first time i'm co-coordinating the workshop with another blogger and the first time i'm a vendor at my own event. Yes, you read it right, I'm finally taking a big step of faith by pre-launching the products I've been preparing in my head all year. I figured rather than sending people to 6 different places to buy healthy hair products, I can bring it to them! So, I hope you come out to support me and if you're still not sure whether the event is worth your time, let me provide you with this detailed info.

What is Sunshine and Fros?
Sunshine and Fros is an hairformational workshop which is designed for those with little to no knowledge on afro-textured hair care, although expert opinion of veterans are also welcomed.

Why Should I Attend?
The natural hair comunity these days is filled with many contradictory advice which can be very discouraging and frustrating. This workshop will be presenting neutral, scientific and unbiased information about natural hair care which will allow you to design your own healthy haircare regimen. 

Who Should Attend?
Anyone with natural hair, transitioning or those looking for healthy Black hair tips. You should also attend if you are currently struggling with a hair issue, have a burning question to ask, need to vent about controversies in the natural hair community or just want to enjoy the company of naturally beautiful women.

What Should I Expect?
There will be two different sessions happening on this day in which one session will be on children's hair care while the other will be for the general audience. There will also be a natural hair art display by a local artist. Details about the workshop are listed below for your viewing.

What Should I bring?
What Should I Bring?
As this is an hairducational event, I recommend bringing a pen and notepad with you to take notes with. You can also bring a camera with you to capture all the beautiful natural hairstyles for your hairstyle archives. It would also help to come with a friend.  

Who Will be Facilitating the Workshops? 
The workshops will be conducted by myself and Añya Grant of I Heart My HairAñya will be showing us how the right combination of products and techniques on our coily/curly hair will produce more favourable results and less disappointments. As an Alikay Naturals International Brand Ambassador, Añya will be demonstrating healthy hair care practices via a Hair Demo.
   
Will I Be Able To Purchase Natural Hair Products?
Yes! you will have the opportunty to purchase high quality hair products such as black soap, shea butter, whipped hair butters, oils, bentonite clay, AVJ, e.t.c.
You can also bring in fairly used products which has not expired to be swapped.

Any Giveaways?
