Patrica Gains a.k.a Dee
With a forum of nearly 70.000 registered members, Dee is the most successful and celebrated natural woman in the World Wide Web. Nappturality’s board has grown to be a place where women from all over the Diaspora talk about more than just hair. This site has become a cultural celebration of our roots.

Wilbur Pack, Jr., designer, hairstylist, and entrepreneur, made his debut to the fashion world with the edgy Sorta Kinda Couture Ragz, his made-to-measure tailored clothing line. SK Wilbur, Pack’s current line of fun, deliciously vibrant, rainbow hued knit tops, is the next step in his evolution as a designer.

Jasmine Laurence
The founder of Eden Body Works will be a panel member her self. Jasmine was driven by her own need for a natural hair care solution. Devastated by the harsh chemical products, Jasmine sought to develop unique products that were all natural and really worked. Unlike most products that are cosmetic in nature, her mission was to develop hair care products that actually deliver their promise of stronger, healthier hair.
