Pourquoi ne te peignes-tu pas? Tes cheveux afro ne font pas correct, ils semblent désordonnés.C'est la remarque qu'on m'a fait lors de dernier séjour à Cotonou au Bénin.Pour bien remettre les choses dans leur contexte, le Bénin est un pays de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, où vivent donc des personnes d'origine Africaine, et qui ont en majorité les cheveux afro.Et pourtant, porter ses cheveux au naturel n'est pas la norme. Dans les administrations, l'espace  public etc, ce sont les perruques et tissages et tresses avec rajout qui sont monnaie courante.Quel mécanisme nous a emmené à cela? Ne pas considérer nos propres cheveux comme assez beaux pour être valorisés?C'est ce dont nous allons discuter dans ce nouvel épisode de podcast.Si vous avez aimé ce sixième  épisode de "Bol d'hair", n'hésitez pas à laisser un commentaire et mettre une note de 5 étoiles ⭐️ sur Apple Podcast, Deezer, Spotify, Soundcloud.Retrouvez-nous également pour plus de conseils sur les cheveux afros sur Instagram : @olafro_cosmetiques (https://instagram.com/olafro_cosmetiques?igshid=ZWQyN2ExYTkwZQ==) et sur Facebook : Ol'afro cosmétiques capillaires .Et redécouvrez notre site Internet : www.olafro.com––Music Credits–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––KOREDE | Afrobeat Library | Music For Content Creators | Afrobeat | No CopyrightYoutube:    • KOREDE | Afrobeat...  Creative Commons — Attribution - CC BY-NC-ND 4.0Affiliated YouTube channel |  / kaseembada  –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

A very candid episode about mental health and Afro hair. Listen and learn how to manage emotions and Afro hair. The presidential race, Beethoven's hair, and the resignation of both Miss America and Miss Teen America fuels this subject matter!

Vous vous posez des questions sur les perruques naturelles? Les différentes appellations qui sont floues?Et d'ailleurs, porter une perruque est-il compatible avec le fait de porter ses cheveux Afro au naturel?Dans l'épisode précédent, j'avais fait une analyse de l'état des lieux du sujet, mais cette fois-ci, je souhaitais avoir l'avis d'une prothésiste capillaire ou perruquière qui elle même a des cheveux afro au naturel.Cet épisode vous apprendra sûrement pas mal de choses sur les perruques naturelles, et surtout celles aux textures crépues, frisées ou bouclées.Si vous avez aimé ce cinquième épisode de "Bol d'hair", n'hésitez pas à laisser un commentaire et mettre une note de 5 étoiles ⭐️ sur Apple Podcast, Deezer, Spotify, Soundcloud.Retrouvez-nous également pour plus de conseils sur les cheveux afros sur Instagram : @olafro_cosmetiques (https://instagram.com/olafro_cosmetiques?igshid=ZWQyN2ExYTkwZQ==) et sur Facebook : Ol'afro cosmétiques capillaires .Et redécouvrez notre site Internet : www.olafro.comMusicCredits––––––––––––––––––––––––––––KOREDE | Afrobeat Library | Music For Content Creators | Afrobeat | No CopyrightYoutube:    • KOREDE | Afrobeat...  Creative Commons — Attribution - CC BY-NC-ND 4.0Affiliated YouTube channel |    / kaseembada  –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Nous aimons porter nos cheveux naturels, mais nous aimons également “changer de tête “ assez régulièrement.Où se trouve la limite dans le fait de porter plus souvent des perruques que nos cheveux naturels?

We are delighted to interview Ivorian artist, social commentator and author Laetitia Ky on the FiLiA Podcast. She is a political artist known for her hair sculptures, which she uses to raise awareness about the structural inequality and oppression of women and girls. She is a one-of-a-kind artist, activist and creative voice based in the Ivory Coast. Laetitia taught herself how to use dreads and wire to challenge the way afro hair is portrayed culturally in patriarchy and how it can be used as a tool of feminist solidarity. Her unique sculptures, created using her afro hair and just wires (without specialised products), are mediated through photography and videos, and celebrate the artist's roots around themes that are often delicate and uncomfortable. She is the author of “Love and Justice: A Journey of Empowerment, Activism, and Embracing Black Beauty” and exhibits her work, to critical acclaim, around the world.Laetitia Ky speaks with FiLiA Spokeswoman Raquel Rosario Sánchez about her use of hair as a professional art medium, the political messages behind her art, the oftentimes oppressive way girls and women are treated in patriarchal society and the differences, in her view, between Global North versus Global South feminism.You can follow Laetitia Ky's groundbreaking work on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and TikTok. You can purchase her work through her gallery and find her book “Love and Justice: A Journey of Empowerment, Activism, and Embracing Black Beauty” in all excellent libraries.Buy Laetitia's book from the FiLiA Book Shop.

The power of Afro-hair lies in its abilities to unite the human race and mother earth. The current events around the incomparable Edward Enniful leaving Britis Vogue in March 2024, the Taliban ordering the closing of all hair salons in Afghanistan, and the Detroit Free Press' BREAKING NEWS on Curly Perms making a comeback, this episode is sure to leave you fired up, feeling all mighty, and ready to love your hair!

Why I had to choose my hair over my acting career W/ Shalita Grant An actress since High School, Tony- nominated Shalita grant publicly quit a popular long standing Television show after suffering from traction alopecia, thinning hair and breakage in front of an audience of millions. Holywood's tendency to ignore the needs of actors with textured hair meant that Shalita faced daily hair practices and techniques that caused severe long term damage to her own hair. The producers did not understand or provide for the complex needs of her hair and this put limitations on her career.She also faced backlash and trolling online when she tried to wear a wig to minimise further damage to her own hair. At the time, she could see no other option than to quit the show.After overcoming her own obstacles, she created the Four Naturals treatment to renew, restore and rebuild her hair, which is now in the best condition and more manageable than its ever been. This meant that her public and traumatic hair experience has not had to lead to her abandoning acting or hiding her hair forever. She chose to heal, both inside and out, and is now finding ways to be able to be on set with her own natural hair.InstagramFacebookFour Naturals Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist course Connect with Hair therapy: Facebook Instagram Twitter Clubhouse- @Hair.Therapy Donate towards the podcast Start your own podcastHair & Scalp Salon Specialist Course ~ Book now to become an expert!

Episode SummaryAs a black woman with Type 4c hair, host, Paige Lewin, has experimented with every hairstyle, from wigs and weaves, to braids, bleach, and various different hair colours.

From local black hairdressers to mainstream global chains, Paige talks honestly, and candidly, about her experiences, and the impacts these moments in her life had on her psychologically growing up as a young black woman in Britain with curls, kinks, and coils on her scalp that were seen to be outliers to the standard.In this episode we will debate- The impact of seeing straight hair as a beauty standard [10:08] - Chemical processing the hair of young women [11:09]- The issue with busy black hairdressers [18:40]- Psychological impact for black girls in white salons [27:46]Important Moments - Why I decided to create Texture Talks [1:20]- Introduction to topic [5:40]- My first salon experience [9:27]- My experience with mainstream "white" salons [26:24]- How can we make a change [37:11]- Like and Subscribe, Rate and Review, Share on socials, Submit episode ideas!

We need to talk about afro hair because it is important to empower the next generation of students with a historical and economical as well as a social understanding of what it means to have afro hair. The history of afro hair is the history of colonialism, slavery and the imposition of Caucasian beauty standards. It has to change and become a celebration of natural beauty, traditions and arts  but also an informed discovery of the specificities of afro hair. Get the information you need in this podcast to start a movement of celebration for your students in your school

In this 22nd episode of The Lavender Fix podcast I interview: Kimberly Houston, a proud business owner hailing from the black community who shares her thoughts on how natural black hair have become a civil rights issue in America, at work & outside. Anti-black hair sentiment on U.S. soil has existed for centuries & this discussion explores the deeper context of America's fascination with black hair, & why black men & women are having to "manage" their natural hair by damaging it for the sake of being perceived as less threatening. It's time to flip the script & dismantle a culture of discrimination experienced by black women & men who say they continue to face implicit or explicit pressures to conform, unwelcome comments or even outright discrimination.#BlackHairMatters
