Hair Power!

Here is a response from a person proud of her hair and is not afraid to say it. I found her on a hairstylist website. She does wonderful work at: Bamboo Hair Studio and can be contacted at www.millenniumsol.com She informs me that in Florida, every 3out of 5 people you run into on the streets have locs and that her clientel is made up of at least 35% men. Drop her a line to tell her to keep up her positve work.

Thank you for contacting us. My name is Anita Spencer. I have been locing for 15 years. I decided to loc because it was a closer connection to my ancestors, as well as the beauty that I felt outward and inside about myself. When the European's first saw our hair they said that it looked dreadful and because of that the term Dread Locs has become a part of our communities across the world, people do not realize how negative this saying really is.

Because I am a natural hair specialist I teach my clients to love there hair without the negative sterotypes. I am here to tell everyone that there is nothing dreadful about our hair.

My family's initial response was: WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOU DOING. Because my mother, grandmother and greatgrand mother had done hair before me, they didn't understand. I have no Dislikes about my hair, I love everything about my hair.

The response now is overwhelming sometimes, with praises of beauty, my mother now brags to everyone about my hair. I now live in the state of Florida.

Thanks Again
Anita Spencer
