Cph Curls & Conversation
On Saturday February 11th the first ever Scandinavian Hair Event was held in Copenhagen, Denmark. A bunch of happy curlies and curious people showed up and helped make the event a success. We had presentations with various topics, from the history of black hair to tips on how to care for your curls. The attendees seemed engaged and very positive. I met some new people, and I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to speak to every single one of you who showed, but feel free to email me and give us feedback!
