Deep Conditioned
I thought I just needed my hair done.
Turns out, I needed to be undone.
Burned out. Buried under wigs, brands, and a version of myself I don’t even recognize.
I came to Crowned and Covered for a takedown�
but left with a truth I hadn’t faced in years�
hair that breathes, hands that heal,
and a mirror that showed me me—raw, real, and ready to begin again.

”Real beauty is when you show up as yourself, even when the world tells you that you aren’t enough.�
It’s Katrice’s turn to sit down and get her hair done at Crowned and Covered, and she couldn’t be more ready to as the 26-year old social media influencer is ready to let go of the perfection that comes with her job and shed her 32 inch bundles as well.
I think many of us as Black women can relate to Katrice’s story of having to be “perfect� when we show up online. Instead of just posting, many of us are spending countless hours criticizing and critiquing ourselves to the point of no return. Like Katrice, I hope that many of us Black women come to understand that social media is fake and that we don’t have to pressure ourselves to live up to its “standards.�
Favorite quote: “I felt like a woman declining vassals. One twist at a time.� 🫶🏽
As always, I still wish this series was longer than 30 pages. There’s so much more to be said with these FMCS.

Katrice’s story felt connected to today’s world where a lot of people are trying to be so “perfect� for social media. Her hair is her crown and she couldn’t even wear it the way she wanted to because she had to uphold the brand that was created for her with the bundles of fake hair. Her transformation was just that with her living in her natural beauty and allowing herself to just be her and it was nice to see. I wouldn’t mind seeing more of her character and how she handles being a social media influencer going forward and if she is able to build a life outside of that.

Stand in your own truth. Never allow others expectations to run your life and thoughts. Yours dreams are just that� yours. Someone else’s views of you don’t matter especially if it’s costing your sanity and losing yourself in the process. I love Sunday’s at the Salon.
