Sorry for the delay but here’s an update on my experience at the 2016 International Natural Hair Meetup Day that took place May 21st at the Sheraton Hotel in downtown Brooklyn, NY, presented by NaturalPartnersinCrime.
International Natural Hair Meetup Day (INHMD) is an annual one-day event whose purpose is to allow an opportunity for women worldwide to meet in their own communities while networking, sharing, and virtually meeting other women participating in same day meetups around the world Natural hair meetups are events designed to inform, share, inspire, and aid individuals in their natural hair journey.
Being natural has introduced millions of women to a whole new world and journey of self love and acceptance. This new found community has brought women together to join forces and share their beauty secrets, hair tips without any judgement or hatred towards each other. This is the second event that I’ve gone to that NaturalPartnersinCrime has hosted and I will continue to attend more. I love the way women can come together as a unit to put on this amazing event!
There were a lot of beautiful women in attendance showing off their beautiful tresses styled effortlessly ready to shop and interact with their Curlfriends.
In attendance were some amazing Hair and skin vendors such as Eden BodyWorks, Design Essentials,Mielle Organics , Palmers Coco Butter, Made Beautiful Uncle Funky’s Daughter, Obia Naturals and many others were present. Also Kinky Curly Yaki, natural hair extensions vendor had their booth set up. If you never heard of them they’re an amazing hair line that offers textures that mimic 4a/b/c patterns. In which you can ordering kinky hair bundles for protective styles like wigs and clip-in extensions for added volume.
If you weren’t one of the first 150 guests to arrive on time to get your complimentary swag bag full of natural hair goodies and skin care products, you surely missed out! I definitely made sure I was there on time to receive mine, and I don’t regret that at all. Those who missed out were drooling over the size of our bags, eagerly looking to get a sneak peek of what we had. They learned that when NaturalPartnersinCrime puts together an event you have to be on time. ( I guess the saying is true: The early bird gets the worm)
Some of my favorite items were the Palmer’s Coconut Lotion & sunscreen, Eden Body Works Co-wash, Design Essentials Natural Curling Custard, TheMane Choice Leave in, and the Wrap Life head wraps.
