Hello Velvet Halo, I learned about your Fotki album from your interview in Afroniquely You. My parents are from East Africa, so I know for a fact that his is a woman from the Afar ethnic group in NE Ethiopia. Thanks for sharing!!!
Hi I believe it is destiny that made me find this siter. I am from Sweden and have relatives in Denmark and I manage to grow my hair quite well by using what I could find. Yes its true, compared to US and UK, getting products for black hair its very hard especially considering most are deteriorated there in afro shops. I can recommend staying away from shampoos designed for black hair. I used normal shampoos thar are not drying. It was hard taking care of the hair in sweden during late 90:s as they still had same products on the shell that they had had at the beginning of the 90:s, smelling awful and deteriorated. I feel for u sister being in Denmark
OK, this is my tribe! (I know it would help if I posted pics -- I will soon!) The lady in front with the long hair has very similar features as me. PPl always ask if I'm from that region (Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Eritrea) and I tell them I'm from the states! Now, I see it! LOL. And I look forward to doing my hair exactly like this!
