My hair means everything to me but my hair is not my power, said club member Yahira Tarr 17. As a black woman my hair is stigmatized, fetishized, and demonized but Ive learned to appreciate my curls and the versatility of my hair that represents the many factions of being a black girl. I am beautiful hair or not, but theres a certain beauty and artistry of natural hair that cant be imitated.
