I met Rosa, pictured above, at the You're Beautiful, Woman event on 7th August and agreed to help her collect hair stories:
'DO YOU HAVE A HAIR STORY TO TELL? I am a student at Edinburgh University and I am currently writing my dissertation on the politics that surround Black and mixed raced women's hair in Britain specifically looking at the motivations behind hair relaxing. I am interested in ANYTHING you have to say about your hair. If you are interested in helping me with my research or have any questions then please send me an email. Just write your personal hair story with your age, ethnicity and occupation to:
yourhairstory@hotmail.co.uk
You can write anything you like and feel, in anyway you wish, all I ask for is honesty. These hair stories (unless you state otherwise) shall then be put together and emailed back to you in the form of an independent magazine so we can appreciate both the common and different experiences that we all go through as Black and Mixed Raced women with our hair. All entries will remain anonymous.
Deadline date: 1st November 2010.
I look forward to hearing from you! Rosa'
