I’ve been using hair and skin care by Oyin Handmade for years. I really trust their ingredients, and everything they make is smells amazing. The No Ash at All Lotion is amazing.

My hair care is blackity black black. The only non-Black company product in my routine is the bootleg Paul Mitchel tea tree oil shampoo (Yes it has sulfates but a chick with fine hair can’t have buildup) Otherwise my hair routine is brought to you by TGIN, Camille Rose, and oils from the kitchen.

(Well, arguably the audience is more racist than most of the performers, I hope, but I digress.)

adding 4 black girls playing banjos? Yup, that’s peak annoying.”

Look at the big, brave racist commenting anonymously!

I love country music and have always wondered why it didn’t have more black artists. Of course you have the very, very few like Charlie Pride, Darius Rucker, and now Kane Brown is new on the scene.

Whipped dogs holler loudest. Keep putting pressure on these racists! They are scared about 2020. As they should be.
