Darlings,

I am literally still recovering from last weekend’s Expo. It was AMAZING to see a veritable sea of beauties with natural hair of every texture and hue, sharing tips and being pampered by the products and specialists on board last Saturday at the BJCC. In a word, it was self-affirming, especially if you live or work in a space where you rarely interact with other naturalistas. I am so glad I got to catch up with fellow bloggers Javacia Bowser of See Jane Write and Karri Bentley of So Very Karri, too!

I am LOVING my freebies from Miss Jessie’s (product reviews coming soon!) and appreciated the opportunity to connect with vendors like Kurly Kutie, who has a super cute line of t-shirts! The absolute highlight for me was the opportunity to interview blogger/author/life coach/reality tv star Demetria Lucas (stay tuned for that; it deserves a post of its own!). All in all, it was a day in which I realized I’m living my dreams, on my own terms (and that includes my hair – which you can see in one of these photos).

Thanks for reading,

Alexis
