Note sull'episodio
Every black woman will have horror stories of their experiences in black hair salons and at the hands of black hair stylists. From lateness, to rudeness, to low hygiene, to hair damage - we've experienced it all. This episode focuses on why this negative experience is universal.
Key words: regulating black salons, lack of access to capital, beauty schools, internalised anti-blackness and racism.
