Black Hair Care Workshop

As an herbalist working at Smile Herb Shop, I often get questions from Black women on how best to care for their hair. I decided that it was time to create a workshop around the topic. The first two went so well in May, I am offering two more sessions in June.

“NATURAL CARE FOR BLACK HAIR”
Wednesday, June 16th: 6PM-7:30PM
Saturday, June 26th: 12PM-2PM

THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR ALL HAIR TYPES AND TEXTURES. Designed with Black women in mind, this workshop will discuss a variety of natural options for regular hair care and maintenance. This class will address care for all hair types: relaxed, pressed, natural etc. and is geared towards creating a healthy hair environment.

Risikat will offer basic tips and share a few remedies for issues like: dry scalp, hair loss, thickness, growth and more. Students can also bring in the products they already use for feedback, and should also be prepared to sample some of the suggested products. Class size is limited to 12 students in order to accommodate questions and concern. Cost: $25 Pre-registration is required by calling Smile at 301.474.8791.
