***UPDATE***
Hello Lovelies! I am updating this post for two reasons. First, I regrettably did not give credit for the lovely photo below which comes from http://www.madamewalker.net/ , a website dedicated to preserving the legacy of Madam CJ Walker. In addition, they sell their own line of hair care products which include oils, hair dresses, and creams. There is a ton of great info about the late Ms. Walker so head on over and check them out!****************************************************************************
Essence.com has decided to take a walk down hair history lane by profiling some key events in Black hair history. I always love when things like this include Madame C.J. Walker because it shows the juxtaposition between her amazing success as a Black entrepreneur in those times as well as her products which urged Black women to "fix" their hair.
Such complex history we carry on our heads! There are many neat pictures and informative snippets. So, click here to take a look for yourself. What do you think? Oh..and don't forget to read the comments people have left. In some ways, that is actually more interesting than the slide show itself!
