This week's episode is a real treat! I get to talk with the beautifully talented and inspirational Kanisha Tillman! Kanisha is the Founder of Tutus & Tennis Shoes. Her business works with transracial adoptee families and people of all kinds on Black hair care. When Kanisha got into cosmetology she didn't expect it to lead her here. She tells me about the tough conversations she's had with white parents and the importance of hair in the Black community - focusing on little Black girls and boys. We even talk about her own trials from being a single mom, experiencing homelessness, losing her salon, and rising to build the business she has today. Honestly - I'm not doing her justice so this is definitely an episode you don't wanna miss!
