Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to be a Guest Speaker at the T.A.N.G.L.E.S. "Natural Hair Journey: Where Do I Go From Here?" event [HERE]. If you've never heard of T.A.N.G.L.E.S., it is a Natural Hair student organization started at Howard University and T.A.N.G.L.E.S. stands for "Transitioners and Naturals, Growing, Learning and Educating Students".
During the event, I put on several demonstrations for Loc Maintenance and Hairstyling.

After the demonstrations, the attendees were broken into small targeted groups to learn about what interested them. I was the Guest Speaker for Locs Maintenance and cultivation. The President, Jessica, also shared information about her transitioning days and multiple big chop experiences.
These are just a few pictures from the event, you can view more in the Facebook Album [HERE] on my Facebook Fan Page.
This is a terrific way for young people to learn the right things to do for their hair journey. Too often, we all make the mistake of following bloggers/vloggers who are not professionals. We all have a story to tell and it is great to see TANGLES HU reaching out to those who have the right information instead of just opinions.
