"If our hair isn't healthy, it can impact our confidence.  That's why self-care should be a daily part of our hair care routine. Beauty is where science meets self-care and confidence." -- I'Jala Retriegue

On the very last day of Women’s History Month, we celebrate with an early evening event which explains the qualities of natural and textured hair and defines its cultural significance. PowerPoint visuals will give scientific evidence of the differences in hair while a demonstration shows the many avenues of creativity and self-care textured hair offers.

Join us for an interesting live, in-person, free program presented by a lively, talented woman, I'Jala Retriegue who wants to share her knowledge and excitement of culture and heritage. An interactive exchange will bring discussion and Q & A.
