Afro Hair and Beauty Show 2013 Review Part 1.

Yes  we went to the show, Luckily it was another beautiful day in our city as we ventured out that morning to the Business Design Centre for the Afro Hair and Beauty show 2013.

We arrived a little after 11am, unsure of the parking requirements, we decide to pay to park in the design car park, paying just over £6 for 2 hours with an additional £3.10 thereafter.

RENEE - TALIAH WAAJID

I will say however that the junkie in me had second thoughts, I tried in vain to return to buy a bottle (3 products were going for £10) got there ... sold out! Hey ho, snooze you lose!

Dicksons (of Hackney?)

Jan and I bought some natural products from Dicksons herbal stall, pure shea butter, black soap and an Aloe Vera plant.
