Sunshine & Fros Natural Hair Event Recap


About a few short weeks ago, a group of naturally beautiful ladies from the Toronto natural hair community gathered together for an afternoon of hairformation, they also got the chance to ask questions and connect with other Naturalistas.

As mentioned in a previous post, the event was filled with many firsts. To list a few, this was my first summer event, first time i'm giving something away to EVERYONE, first free natural hair event, first mommy & kids meet up, first time a popular American company sponsored the event and the first time i'm a vendor at my own event. 

My highlight of the event was the "Mommy & Me" session, where I facilitated a workshop with AfroMoms and AfroKids. When I asked the kids about their favorite natural hairstyle, they told me they like Afros and two strand twists. Cute eh? The AfroMoms also got to exchange a few tips on hair care and growth which should help both parties to love their hair even more. The kids at the workshop gave me hope for the future.


As always, pictures from the event are posted below. More photos can be found on Facebook where you can tag yourself, like, comment and share the pictures. Thank you to all those who came and I look forward to your continued support. 

Quick Announcement: This will probably be my last self-hosted workshop for the next little while, as I have a few other things which i'm currently working on, as evident in my sporadic posts and online presence.  I might however hold an online meet up during various times in the year.

I am also working on a new site and the launch of my natural hair care company, more details on these projects will be released in the upcoming days. So please stay tuned :)

In the mean time, enjoy the pictures below and please leave a comment below. Thanks.
