Millions of women are exploring what it means to transition to natural hair.

We know that when Black women embrace their love for their natural hair,

it helps to undo generations of teaching that Black in its natural state is not beautiful,

or something to be hidden or covered up.

Black women express their individuality

and experience feelings of empowerment

by experimenting with different hairstyles regularly.

When we're invited to wear our natural hair in the workplace,

it reinforces that we are uniquely valued.

So when you see a woman with braids or locks draping down her back,

or you notice your colleague who has stopped straightening her hair to work,

really appreciate her.

This is more than about a hairstyle.

It's about self-love and self-worth.
