My first time being ok with my air dried, puffy hair. Probably helped I was surrounded by some beautiful, confident, black ladies. #bwij #tokyomeetup #melaninglow (at Tokyo)

Plans are best made over great food and with great conversation #plansinthemaking #tea #tealife #bwij (at Jiyūgaoka, Meguro, Tokyo)
What an amazing and awesome day! I went in a little worried, honestly. I'm often concerned that there's a measurement of blackness and I'll come up short. Everyone at the event was authentically themselves and so open to others being authentic. There was so much encouragement, so much creativity, so many knowledgeable ladies, and so many beautiful ideas, I just sat in awe at times. I'm so glad and fortunate to have a chance to meet so many lovely melanin blessed ladies. #bwij2017tokyo #japanologyreloaded #blackinjapan #bwij #melaninwomen (at Korean YMCA in Japan)
