Irun ori rẹ, ogo rẹ

Irun ori rẹ, ogo rẹ which means your hair, your glory. In the Yoruba culture, a woman's hair is her glory. It's what makes her beautiful   In fact, people braided their hair to send messages to the gods.   Because of the spiritual importance of hair, during the period of slavery, the Europeans first shaved the slave's hair to alter the relationship between the African and his or her hair.  This artwork celebrates all those who love and adores their kinky hair despite the insane amount of hair relaxing ads because, at the end of the day, the kinky hair is more educated than the relaxed hair. It's obedient. Where you put it, it stays.   If reincarnation exists, I want to come back black with my kinky hair.
