Black History Month | Black is beautiful everyday.
In honour of Black History Month, we’re celebrating the beauty of Afro-Caribbean heritage.
As specialists of Afro-Caribbean hair, we know how to tenderly love and care for our curls and nurture them. We offer a diverse range of protective styles that work to ensure healthy, nourished and moisturised hair.
‘This month is a very special month. In the month of October, we celebrate Black History. I wanted us to remember and embrace the beauty and heritage of our hair. Before Africa and the Caribbean were exposed to westernisation, we didn't know anything about weaves or wigs ….not even a blow dryer, the beautiful sunshine would just dry our hair naturally. We would twist our hair into knots and plait it using natural ingredients. Cornrows were also used as a way to style our hair. Another popular styling method was to use really thick wool to wrap around our natural hair to stimulate hair growth. Queens would braid their hair and add beautiful jewellery to embellish their crown. My beautiful Queens, R.C HAIR SOLUTIONS celebrates you. Love your hair, embrace your natural hair. Happy Black History Month!’
