Our hair is one of those blessings that we have had to learn to embrace over time. I think this is a beautiful metaphor for the struggle for self love in it’s natural state (which I seem to be obsessed with). All of these images are photoshop free. I wanted to embrace the beauty of black realness, “flaws” and all. Using hair as a vessel for flowers moved me for some reason…I mean…I am mildly obsessed with hair, flowers, and beauty so never mind, I guess it makes perfect sense! I believe we are all doing the best that we can to get through life inspite of how incredibly difficult it can be. I wanted to capture these beautiful souls in what I see as their Saintly Status, giving them a flower crown on steroids and photography them with love. I continue to find the beauty in myself by seeking the humanity in others. I love my people and I love having a platform to share my point of view. Thank you for spending time with my work, it really means a lot to me to feel seen and received.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloom \u0026 Plume","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31524382998574,"sku":"BPC1912Poster","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2506\/8810\/products\/B_P_ShadesofBlackness_Poster.jpg?v=1587940066"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.bloomandplume.com\/collections\/shades-of-blackness\/vol-3.oembed","provider":"Bloom \u0026 Plume","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
