SHEAMOISTURE Panel: Body Positivity & Self Love

It was great to see the plus size community being represented at Essence Festival.  SheaMoisture a predominantly hair company started the conversation on body positivity and self-love at Essence.  SheaMoisture thought it was important to speak on these topics as they recognize that their customer base being majority African-American women were like most women in the U.S. are plus in size.  They wanted to make these women feel included while at the Essence Festival.  With 67%. of women in the U.S. wear a size 14 or above we are a force to be seen and heard!
