Ep. 1: Jennifer Jones
b'
On today\\u2019s show, I interview my Delta Sigma Theta Sorority sister, Jennifer Jones. Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Jennifer was one of the first people I called for advice when I was thinking about going natural. She\\u2019s a Quality Assurance Analyst based in Charlotte, North Carolina. We pledged Delta together in the early 1990\\u2019s. If you\\u2019re not familiar with black hair care lingo, here\\u2019s a brief breakdown of common terms to help get you through the show. Chemical relaxer aka relaxer aka perm is a creamy substance with lye, which is applied to naturally curly hair to make it straight. Hot comb is a metal comb that\\u2019s heated on top of a stove and combed through curly hair to make it straight. Touch up is when you apply relaxer to new hair growth that hasn\\u2019t been permed. TWA is an acronym for tweeny weeny afro. Locs are short for dreadlocks. Jennifer and I started our conversation talking about her hair texture.
