Black Hair Rocks made it all the way to The Bronner Brothers
International Summer Hair Show, in Atlanta Georgia; also celebrating their 65th
Anniversary. Apparently this is one of the biggest black Hair Shows so off
course we needed to check it out. Since this would be the first time attending,
Black Hair Rocks was unsure what to expect, but indeed it exceeded all
expectations. The show took place over four days, running from the 4th-7th
of August, at the World Congress Centre. Live hair competitions, business
seminars, hair battles, live demonstrations, were all on offer. As well as
hundreds of black hair care companies, many of which are unknown in the UK, but
there was strong emphasis on using natural ingredients, which was great to see.

Centre Cynthia Bailey from 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' |
The atmosphere and vibe was unreal, it was amazing to witness a hair
show on that grand scale all in the name of hair and beauty. The show was not
just geared towards woman, men’s haircare and barbering techniques also played
a big part. So many talented stylists showcasing their skills; never seen a
weave done in 60minutes, then restyled in 10minutes and still look good.
Cynthia Bailey from ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta ‘made a surprise appearance
and presented a cheque for the ‘Remy Rain’ hair competition. She was also
promoting her new premium collection of virgin hair extensions ‘Hair Couture’.
And rocking one of her own hair collection, I can say her hair looked amazing.
Tannesh Thomas from ‘The Bad Girls Club’ also judged and presented the
competition, her wit, one liners and humour added to make it a memorable
competition.

Right - Lisa Price Founder of Carols Daughter |
One of the biggest highlights would have to be meeting Carols
Daughter founder Lisa Price, the live hair competition creating a red carpet
style in 60minutes and the barber battle. We were even lucky enough to win a
goody bag courtesy of ‘Black Hair Magazine’, bagged a few freebies, and picked
up loads of tips and info on how to promote and maintain healthy hair!
Hot of the press pictures you do not want to
miss coming straight to you from the Bronner Brothers International Hair
show. Brace yourselves some of the styles are out there, but all
the same still very creative.
