"I Cried In The Salon Chair": Black Hairdressers are traumatising us!
A pastor really called a woman "the spirit of a witch" for asking for... baby formula?! Make it make sense. The Aunties are heated this week and trying to figure out why so many churches are failing their communities.We're also diving deep into that viral stat: In 1970, 91% of women were married by 30, but today it's only 32%. But why is the blame always on women's careers and not the men who aren't proposing? And we HAVE to talk about the Black hairdresser trauma. Ak, Farrah & Nana shares a salon horror story that is way too relatable—from relaxer burns to just bad customer service, we've all got the PTSD!
