I love the Science of black hair book! I literally feel like I have so much more information to help me continue to learn my hair the more it grows. I have to pick up the other book!! Thanks for sharing ?
Hair science, research and testimony combine in this carefully written text designed to examine black hair on a deeper level. The special, salon professional edition of The Science of Black Hair features full-color photographs and color-tab organization to enhance the reading experience.

Saturday was a dream come true for two reasons!
One.... I finally had some free time in my schedule to actually attend a Hair Conference in my OWN town
and
Two ... I had the pleasure of meeting my long-time hair care idol - Audrey Davis-Sivasothy! That's right, the author of infamous Hair Care Bible, The Science of Black Hair.
If you followed me on Twitter (@hairlicious) and my InstaStory on Instagram (@hairlicious), you would have experienced highlights of this event!
#LoveYourHairLive was held on Saturday April 29, 2017. It was a hair, beauty and wellness conference for Naturalistas in Toronto - but I went as a relaxed Hairlista to suck up any knowledge I could. The conference was created by Dr. Susan Walker, ND, WTS the owner of Earthtones Naturals Hair Care line.
The conference had a great balance of information that would assist anyone taking care of their hair from the inside out. Dr. Susan Walker provided a comprehensive presentation on methods to achieve healthier hair through the foods you eat and why its important to eat right for optimal hair growth. Of course nutrition plays a huge role in your healthy hair care regimen and I'm glad Dr. Walker zoned in on diet. My takeaway from this portion of the seminar is that: with every meal, there should be a protein component along with some vegetables accompanied by LOTS of water throughout the day!
The second portion of the conference was dedicated to Audrey Davis-Sivasothy. Let me just school you on something right quick! Audrey, aka SistaSlick (her alias on the hair boards back in the day), has been my hair inspiration from 2007. I stalked her hair journey through black hair care forums, hair albums etc. and fell in love with her hair progress. I always considered "us" to be hair texture twins, although she didn't know it! Every product she used on her relaxed strands worked on my hair to a "T". She's always been knowledgeable in the hair care field and I've learned so much from her!! The progress she achieved with her relaxed hair motivated and inspired me to start taking better care of my hair.
Audrey, with her soft southern accent, began her hair talk informing all the hairsistas that we (as black women) don't have a hair growth problem, we have a length retention problem! #Facts! I must say, Audrey packed her presentation with a chock full of demonstrations to give us amazing visuals to help comprehend the content better and to obtain great take away knowledge that can easily be applied i.e.
Hair Growth Equation: High Moisture + Low Manipulation + Time = Hair Growth! #KeepingItSimple. Audrey truly broke down the basics of healthy hair care for any and everyone to understand.
My favourite part was the interactive "Lets Build A Moisturizer" game :) Participants were each given an ingredient card and were then instructed to build a moisturizer by arranging the ingredients in order that would be most beneficial to our hair. See below.
Much betterrrrr. Check out how mineral oil was disqualified! Ha! I think I would have swapped honey and replaced it with glycerin, so its much higher on the ingredient list...What about you?
The conference ended off with a panel discussion on hair typing and whether or not it truly matters in the hair care world. Thoughts surrounding Texturism was discussed. Texturism is real and frequently creates division within our hair community. There were many great responses by the panelists Ndija (The Natural Hair Advocate), Dr. Susan Walker (Earthtones Naturals) and Canadian Naturalistas.
Oh, and as a bonus, Audrey held a private VIP session focusing on hair regimen building for an intimate group size! You know me, I had to be there :) Audrey opened the floor to those who had burning regimen building questions and she answered each and every one!
Meeting Audrey in person was everything! She's so sweet, easy to talk to and she embraces you with her gorgeous smile! It was a pleasure finally meeting my hair idol! My hair journey now feels complete *sigh* :)
Of course vendors i.e. Earthtones Naturals, The Natural Hair Advocate, Curls Afrotique Satin Bonnets, Up North Naturals, CurlShoppe etc., to name a few, were in the house for our shopping pleasure!
Check'em out below!

Demi Moore..doesn't she have all those characteristics? except i don't know if her hair is dyed or if she is wearing contacts. I would think someone mediterranean mixed with something could produce that being. However, to produce someone like that would be hard because of linked traits. For example, you don't see black hair blue-eyed people because those traits are not normally linked together on chromosomes.
This is further complicated with the fact that ethnicity is also a product of culture, so we're taking about a social-cultural concept and using it to predict something biological like eye color. "Ethnicity is the cultural characteristics that connect a particular group or groups of people to each other. 'Ethnicity' is sometimes used as a euphemism for "race", or as a synonym for minority group. While ethnicity and race are related concepts, the concept of ethnicity is rooted in the idea of societal groups, marked especially by shared nationality, tribal afilliation, religious faith, shared language, or cultural and traditional origins and backgrounds, whereas race is rooted in the idea of biological classification of homo sapiens to subspecies according to morphological features such as skin color or facial characteristics."
And that is a very difficult question mostly because we still don't know what gene combinations make each color show up in the phenotype. We know eye and hair and skin color are close to one another on the chromosome, so often correlate, but it's not that simple.
There is no such thing as 'true green' eyes. My educated guess would be that there are two types of green eyes: ones that are originally blue with yellow fat deposits on them that blend to make green (they are most vivid), and hazel eyes that happen to pick up greenish hues easily from the environment.
In this essential guide, Nadine Artemis introduces listeners to the concept of "renegade" beauty - a practice of doing less and allowing the elements and the life force of nature to revive the body, skin, and soul so our natural radiance can shine through. Anyone stuck in perpetual loops of new products, facials, and dermatologist appointments will find answers as Artemis illuminates the energizing elements of sun, fresh air, water, the Earth, and plants.
