NY Social Media Week: Black Women, Health & Hair, presented by Beautiful Athlete • Thursday, February 16th 6-8pm @ Pump One

The conversation on black women, their hair and health has been a huge topic of discussion as black women’s health seemingly heads toward a decline. This panel will be a discussion to dispel the myth that black women do not workout and will aim to encourage those that do not exercise, due to their hairstyle concerns. In addition to the discussion, we will also intro the bi-monthly health and hair twitter chat (#blkhealthnhair).

Moderated by Tina Shoulders of Beautiful Athlete, the panel will include Niema Jordan, Health Editor, Essence Magazine, Franchsca Ramsey of Chescalocs and Francheska Medina of Hey Fran Hey as well as writer and salon owner Diane Dacosta
