Hair,
Socialite Adventures Black Girl Long Hair ( www.bglhonline.com ) blog host Leila held her 4th Chicago Natural Hair Meetup today on the west side of Chicago and it was a great time! The turn out was very good. It was great to see so many full luscious heads of natural hair, all types from gorgeous locs to kinky twists to baa (big ass afros) to twas (teeny weeny afros) and every type of curl in between. Babies, women, men, kids, boys and girls were out in full force, rocking the awesome curls they were born with!
Can I just say, there are some fierce clothes wearing naturals out there? I mean some super cool creative looks. And the products were awesome, like vintage record disc earrings and blinged out t-shirts (I bought a crystal embellished Thank God I'm Natural t-shirt from the beautiful and sweet Chris-Tia, author of Thank God I'm Natural )
Met up with my twitter homegirl Tammy ( @mztamz ) who had a table to get the word out about Vote Naked Illinois, which is basically an initiative to let people know that they can vote from home (naked if they want, lol) through mailed ballots and then mail them back easy peasy. People can bring the ballot application to a Vote Naked event (or drop it in the mail themselves), and enjoy company of like minded people, have a fun happy hour, dance, or do whatever the event is.
Anyway, here are some of the pics from the event, hope that you can check out a cool meetup in your area!
