Meetup | Midlands Natural Hair Meetup 2012
Calling all Midland Naturals! | All Ages Welcome! |
I was invited to go and present on "Transitioning" at this event and I was honoured to be a part of such a wonderful meetup! It was held at the Custard Factory in Birmingham. Myself and Sister E, from the Calabash Hub, decided to catch the train down together. On arrival at Birmingham New Street, imagine our joy at seeing the lovely Rachelle and Charlene, from the Goody Box UK!
Off we wondered, on foot, to the venue. At one point, we couldn't seem to find an entrance but we soldiered on and we were there!
It was a lovely meetup featuring:
- Poetry readings
- Presentations on nutrition and transitioning
- Headwrapping demo
- Hairstyling demo: for women on the go!
- Serenade by songstress, Justene; and
- GIVEAWAYS.
We chatted, we laughed and some of us WON in the giveaways. We also got beautiful goodie bags with Keracare and ORS product samples!
Overall, colour me impressed! Well organised and a lovely atmosphere.
If ever I need an excuse to go down to Birmingham, this would be it!
