Natural Hair Parade



What started out as Natural Hair Day on Twitter, turned into a celebration of MY own natural hair being beautiful. It was just as sexy as straighter textures. It was as sexy as kinkier textures.

After seeing loads of tweets from women worldwide representing #TeamNaturalHair, it hit me that it would be an impeccable sight to get ALL persons with natural hair in one place at one time. A Million Natural Hair Wearers March if you will. With this thought, Natural Hair Parade was born.

Though lofty in our aspirations, we believed wholeheartedly with the support of the natural hair community, an actual parade, and a corresponding natural hair expo, taking place on the weekend of the first anniversary of Natural Hair Day, would be achievable. NOW, we decided, why wait for a big event when we can have smaller, local pop-up meetups in different locations nationally and do a tour.

Our tour shall not exclude any texture or ethnicity and will seek not only to exhibit, but also to empower those making the choice to step outside of societal ideals and accept that which grows from us naturally.

We are not rigid in this movement to showcase our ethnic variety, our hair versatility, and our oneness. We seek to educate and uplift, not tear down. This is a unifying endeavor and we hope that together, Natural Hair Parade popup tour becomes a beautiful reality.
