Hitting the road to the Curly Hair Expo!




I’m super excited to be going to my first natural hair show on July 28, 2012 in Richmond, VA! I won’t be going alone, my niece Marquita, will be hitting the road with me. (I’ll have Marquita blog at a later date on how I gently persuaded her to take the Sistah Curl Journey with me…he-he J.)

 I’ve been natural for five years, but decided to take the curly journey back in late April. I googled and you tubed just about every and anything related to natural black hair. Actually now that I think of it, my search began with keying in: Curly Afros. You see I wanted big, beautiful, curly bushy hair for the summer. J Lucky for me about a month later I came across Keenya Kelly’s Return of the Curls website. I was super ecstatic to learn Ms. Kelly was presenting a Curly Hair Expo!

I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Ms. Kelly. And sistahs… she was soooo cool and just as excited about my plans for attending the expo.  I could tell she was busy from the hustle and the bustle in the background. Nevertheless, she chatted with me and answered all my questions.




By nature I love to learn. So, I am looking forward to learning a wealth of information on natural hair. I’m eager to attend the various workshops, buy goodies from the vendors…”Shhh, don’t tell the hubby,” check out the fashion show, and just have a good ‘ole time meeting up with friends who will be attending the expo.

After the show I’ll come back and blog about my experience at my first natural hair show.

Until Next Time,

Gaye Suzette
