Watch BAD Hair Uprooted
We welcome your support
From photography to exhibition, from interviews to this documentary in progress, BAD Hair Uprooted—has been entirely self-financed. Driven by the reality that 73% hair loss is rooted in unequal hair rights, this is an untold history that needs to be shared.
Today, I’m asking for your support. Please BUY MY BOOK or DONATE if you can then like, follow and share to help realize the documentary.
