 Trini girl natural Hi, everyone. Welcome back to my channel today. I have a first thing. I went to the ubiquitous hair show And that's actually the first hair show that I ever went to so I decided to come on and just kind of V-log so the V-log part is skeptic goes to a natural hair show Does she end up liking it or not because I always used to say why I don't really see the point of hair shows I'll just wait for Black Friday but last year I was looking at some YouTube videos of hair shows and people just had so much fun and they got so much stuff And you know, they just loved it. So I decided that this year for sure I'm gonna go check it out. So if you want to find out my final opinion my review of ubiquitous and Whether I'm gonna go to hair shows in the future. Stay tuned So it's pretty dark in here. This is my first time coming to one and I'm not sure how I feel about it I don't care about celebrities. I don't care about reality stars. I don't care about most bloggers or Most of the products they have at this but somebody was saying that you know, it's good for sales and there are some Speakers later that might be interesting so I decided to come check it out So this is the skeptic strip to a hair show first hair show So far I've seen like pink like lusters and aunt Jackie's neither of which are brands that I really want to try so kind of Emphasizes them. Maybe it's not for me thing, but I'm gonna keep walking and see what I can find these cute these little head wraps or skirts or Etc. Well, I guess they probably have both those are kind of cute I wouldn't buy jewelry in this dark. I can't really see for sure what I'm getting that. This is a no I'm be definitely no this one down here is kind of interesting So uncle funky was like 30% off black Friday's usually like 25% off So it wasn't quite enough to get me the dip in And that was the first I was the only one so far that might have been interested This is the main stage. I'm definitely gonna stay for the talk. I was kind interested in so That would have been the one other thing besides the sales that might have been interested So there's supposed to be some performance. I don't openly care about that I am super natural Which is against something else that might get me to take a look all the Stuff works, okay if the sensor just so strong for me, but I'm gonna go take a look at this To the mile, I think only the conditioner was interested in from the new line I think the ingredients look good. It was kind of too tiny to tell from the labels right now without like being too obvious about it Well, it was like only like 12 dollars instead of 15 which I think is probably 30% off again So again, it's like comparable to last Friday and I can definitely wait, but they had a really cute setup So points for the setup and then raise the night some hair, which I definitely don't need because I don't use hair I was 59 for these scripts I Kind of heard of these Probably the most Tempting playing so far, but I have so many lipsticks at home. I don't even use so I don't know I did Anna buying the lip bar my first purchase Was a kind of red color. It's kind of still wrapped up now My lips didn't feel the softest, but since it's like vegan and natural I decided to give it a try because then the color was nice. So we'll see when I get home, I guess So my first random purchase I got these runner brothers the job was actually pretty clean So I got that I got three six ounce just for $10. And I guess when I get home I'm gonna show you guys more about them But we're trying I guess It was like $10 for everything. I definitely got a bunch of stuff. I don't need Because I have all of them at home anyways, but I just decided to get a couple extra. So I Got an aloe, butter gel, a curlet, two curl makers, and a little bit of the scripts ouch Yeah, I don't think I'm buying anything else. So I might as well. So this look interesting It's my honey baby, but I'm gonna check it out at Target. It was like $10 for stuff and the regular price is like $13 So I'm gonna check it out at Target, but it's not really good and seem pretty natural So it's an attachment that really gets to your roots Let's see if it helps my hair try faster It's like nobody there. So it's kind of disappointing, but and that was one of the things I was interested in but oh well Do you have ideas? Don't y'all have ideas? But do you know how to get into market? Do you know how to source your products? Do you know how to go to manufacturers? Do you know how to get prototypes? That's part of the Americans have 13 times less wealth than whites and Latinos have 10 times less wealth than whites. It's primarily driven by home ownership and business ownership And so I think that when we support and we invest in small business ownership, especially among Minority and women owned businesses. We can change the complexion of our wealth of futures together That's number one and number two I just want to tell you something out there that I was looking to report for the color of wealth where they found that there's approximately 1.1 million businesses That have been unopened by people of color That's not open because of lack of resources discrimination and that if they were open We would have 9 million more jobs in America today and $300 billion more in our GDP a black graduate actually has the same wealth of futures as a white high school Dropout actually has less wealth High school drop out because they were dead because of lack of intergenerational homework courses largely Intergenerational Speaking of home ownership as a primary driver of wealth the reason that that type of statistic can exist is because of structural racism that has kept us from Passing on intergenerational wealth in the form of home ownership due to things like red linings discriminatory lending practices That's that are for the past hundred plus years. That's right This is why black college graduates are typically graduate in debt, which does put you behind in wealth A white person who has not gone to college but also have not incurred that debt White college graduates because they have not been discriminated against in the home ownership realm often have access to different capital Second mortgages different kinds of funds available to pump their college education Then black people who very often go into debt in order to go to college So the answer to the people will not become entrepreneurs of business owners is simple It's to find a company to invest in because once you find a company to invest in we're talking about small companies say I got a thousand dollars. What can we do with that? That's the way that people then become players in the game, but they really don't want it in turn Kind of my raw experience at the hair show What are the takeaways like? What is my review for the book with us? They definitely should have more signs and so on in place because I was kind of wondering girl I first trying to even find a building trying to find the floor Trying to find the room. So definitely more signs. I was a little bit disappointed that that one discussion I wanted to go to Maybe I didn't see anybody and they just ended it But I should have stayed there for the full time or somebody should have so I was disappointed that when I got to The room there was no one there, but the talk in the main area was really really really good So I'm definitely glad that I went there for that Discussions I wouldn't have necessarily gotten Definitely not for Black Friday. You know, maybe there are discussions online or so But they I believe they're all put up to me for questions. So definitely worth it I'm the salesman with it I got back my money just in terms of the sales because I only paid like $20 and that was the door price. So the cheapest was like 12 something I guess because it was style for like 15 but a coupon you could have gotten in for like 12 something If you have a nice friend, you could have gotten in for free and you probably save like maybe $30 if you're Bad on sales. So just a sales alone kind of cover the door price You meet your girlfriends you have never met or you haven't seen in a long time There are really good discussions about hair So I don't really need the hair care aspect that much, but there were definitely demos going on hair care And then that entrepreneurship panel was really good. I'm just seeing the owner of my island oil and different black-owned companies kind of talk about Why we need to become entrepreneurs. I was so motivating and inspiring. So just for that Yay, not all of the sales were really worth it but there were enough sales that were worth it for me to make back my entrance and I enjoyed just kind of getting out seeing what a natural Easter is looking at the products looking at the Fashion and different things that were there as well all the speakers that was good the music and the vibe I'm definitely go back on a case-by-case basis So if I hear of a show, I'm gonna kind of see what it's about See what panels they have trying to figure out what vendors they have although that wasn't possible for this one You kind of had to go in and hope there was some good ones I was a little bit disappointed that the commuteros didn't have any of her limited edition stuff because I thought I was kind of a Staple for hair shows. I wanted to see some of the fancy limited edition stuff But I'm always wishing I could get them begging for and she's a nerd just in the hair show Well, I'm not the hair show so why isn't it there? So that was disappointing of course, you know herself. I didn't see her So I was I kind of looking forward to that Jim counters so tonicals. I didn't see them. So that was disappointing You know, you just you don't know what you're gonna get But I was happy to at least see the commuteros boot even though Jenelle wasn't there I was happy to see my L doing their thing, but I didn't get anything I will consider probably getting a deep conditioner from the new line But this still wasn't really there for me to really go on it hard So I was able to try that even essential body stuff I'm not sure if it's a Sally's yet, but that was good paper 15. So I got a good deal on that. So, yes We'll go back. It's not a case-by-case, but definitely open to it and I did have fun It was so good to see Ashton curls. So we definitely be having a lot more in the future So yay for that Let me know if you want me to do more hair show videos if I go to them, of course It was a little bit awkward to be love, but not that awkward So I could see myself doing it again for my subbies for you guys So let me know if you want me to do that Let me know if you enjoyed this video and if you want to see more videos like it Just comment down below Like the video, you know something like that to let me know So thanks so much for watching and definitely subscribe for more content.
