Hair Street Style: Natural Hair Academy Launch Party

The Natural Hair Academy—or The-NHA.com—is a social network that gives newbie and expert naturals a community that supports and teaches. At their launch event at Chicago's City Point Loft, women gathered to discuss the upcoming site and of course, their natural curls.
