This is a week long event super simple event that just involves making sure you shop at black beauty supply store. We're trying to make a substantial difference in the divestment of monies from our community back into our communities.

Black people don't want other black having anything or being successful. Its so annoying, Black people do not stick together. I have given up on them :-(

@Lazybabyz

No offense, but if you've given up on black people aren't you just as much apart of the problem? IDk.. But I think you need to evaluate and realign yourself with a better crowd, ya dig! lol We do need to stick together but as a person cognizant of the problem you can't give up! Newho thanks for watching and have a good one!

There are no black beauty supplies in my neighborhood any more... and their were many... That is the reason I started locking my hair. I have not been in a beauty supply store in twelve years. Didn't like that no people of color worked in the stores... Or how they watched like I was going to steal something... Love my locks, at my waist now, never looked back never had another scab on my head...

yeah boycott that bullshit and boycott the justice system too!

remove all non-black businesses from our neighborhoods.

black people have had enough....

I am a beauty supply owner. The only catch is that I am half black and half Asian. How much of a problem would that be for y'all to shop with me?

[takesun2]

We should boycott all non-black beauty stores all together! Thats what I do. I will only buy from Black.

[takesun2]

@prisskitajoe there are many black owned beauty supply stores online. If you are interested, I will send you a list of them.

I will not buy from asian or arabs. I only buy from black beauty supply stores. I either go to the ones in my area or shop from one online.There are many. Everyone please join the facebook group "I support black owned beauty supply stores". Its very helpful and it will help you find ones in your area and online.

i encourage you to ask your friends who went to medschool if they ever examined an african american female cadaver. if they had, and the woman had used chemicals on her hair for some years, they will testify that there is a layer of grey jellied brainmatter around the brain. the lye and chemicals used to straighten hair actually jelly the outter layer of brain! the hair products lobby is so powerful, this information is only known by medschool folks and doctors.
