Don’t Touch My Hair celebrates Black women and hair culture.
Eight years ago, Ayana Morris was struggling with her identity as a Black woman. She felt insecure and was trying to figure out her career path. During that time, she came up with the idea of “Don’t Touch My Hair.”
“When I was a little girl, I never dreamed about marriage or having kids. I always thought I would have a big career, single with a cat,” she tells Black Enterprise. “My life has been the opposite of that. I’m a married woman with multiple children. I balance being a supportive wife and mom, but [my] career did not grow as I envisioned.”
