My top choices for this weeks challenge is Nefertti and Jalita! Nefertti – I loved the creativity she displayed, as it helped me to see headwrapping in a whole new light. I, personally, always looked at it as a way to cover-up a bad hair day but now I see it as another way to […]
My favorite this is Chassity. For elimination, I choose Natural Jael. Although I liked scarf, I didn’t feel like she used much creativity in her pictures at all.
This week’s decision was as hard to make as last week’s, if not more. The vote was between CarlieM and Nefertiti. I decided on Nefertiti! She had a very interesting story, showed versatility in the way she styled her wraps, and made some great points about what is “appropriate” when wearing a head wrap. I […]

Wow, the ladies absolutely brought their A-Game this week and clearly raised the level of the competition. This made my day! I was in awe when I saw the shoots but it made it so hard to choose just one best one for the newsletter this week. Even after reading the feedback of the other […]
Well done again to all of you this week. Chassity, Nefertiti, Kala and Carlie really blew me away with their headwrap skills and nice photography!! Really great job Natasha and Jael’s shots were a bit uninspiring and flat. Work on some diversity for next week.
Headwraps are not only a fun and festive hair accessory, they are indeed a tie to our rich ancestry from the motherland! This challenge allowed the ladies to showcase some beautiful headwraps as well as share their thoughts on the cultural connection these headwraps represent. For this challenge, I was looking not only for polished […]
Once again, all of you ladies rocked it with the creativity! I loved seeing all of your unique poses, expressions, and examples of wearing head scarves or hats on natural hair. You gave me some ideas! I have to say that my favorites for this challenge were Jalita and Chassity. My favorite is Chassity. For […]
