Linda
"Mosetta" Jones,
founder of A Nappy Hair Affair, author of
"Nappyisms: Affirmations for Nappy-Headed People
and Wannabes! and originator of the grass roots
natural hair grooming gatherings called "Hair
Day," will be keynote speaker at the annual
SisterLocks Homecoming this weekend in San
Diego, Ca.
"The
Natural Way," is the theme of the homecoming
that will take place July 9-11, at the Holiday
Inn, San Diego Bayside Hotel.
Mosetta will deliver two
mini-presentations on Friday and Saturday
mornings and on Sunday, will lead a Roots
Revival, featuring her spirited Sermon on the
Nap!
"I wanted to acknowledge
Linda who is in many ways a pioneer in the
natural hair care industry," said Sisterlocks
Founder-originator JoAnne Cornwell, who invited
Ms. Jones to speak at the event which is
expected to attract several hundred
participants.
JoAnne
Cornwell, "Unlike
other industries where people get really
competitive, I find that in the natural hair
care industry we're inclined to be more
supportive of what others are doing.
I also
wanted to expose the
Sisterlocks world to the
broader world of natural hair care and how
people like Linda uses creative ways to present
our issues and our choices and the joy that we
all share when we embrace our natural selves. I
consider us to be on the same team and it's a
powerful team."
The homecoming weekend will
also feature training in the Sisterlocks
technique, natural hair care workshops, a
Sisterlocks model search, belly dancing, a
cookout and other entertainment.
