Diaspora Dialogues | Sonder Sessions Studio

Nobody sits you down and explains your hair to you. You inherit it, and you inherit whatever everyone around you already decided it meant.

In this episode, we follow that thread across the diaspora: texture and colorism in the Caribbean, hair as a language of age, status, and belonging in African communities, and the good hair / bad hair inheritance in Black America. We get into braiders and pricing and rules, the gaps in an unregulated beauty industry, and what it looks like to meet your own hair for the first time as an adult.

Remember, your words leave echoes.
