Stand for something or you’ll fall for anything. Summer 2020 has been a monumental one for me because it was the first time in over 10 years I had decided to style and wear my natural hair for months. The pressure to fit into a Eurocentric “norm” had impacted me from a very young age. Burns on my scalp from using chemical straightening agents, my hair falling out from straightening it with heat, to then covering it up with weaves that ripped out my edges. A few of the stages I put my hair through before this point. In 1786 the Tignon Law was passed in Louisiana which required black women to wear a headscarf to cover their hair because our beautiful, elaborate hairstyles were considered a threat to the status quo. In 1619 the auctioning of slaves placed lower value on kinky hair and dark skin. This was deemed as unattractive. This poisonous and deeply damaging mentality remained entrenched in the psyche of generations, giving even black people themselves a complicated relationship with their natural hair. Being black is not a trend. Wearing an afro, Locks and braids is not a trend. Embracing and being proud of who I am is not a trend. I’m black and I’m proud. Say it loud. I’m black and I’m proud.

This solid marble Victorian fireplace is my favourite feature in the entire house!❤️ The attention to detail is phenomenal. Once the gas engineer has serviced the fireplace, then come Autumn Winter this will be my best friend.
