The one near me in DC is sponsored by Koils by Nature



Not sure if I'm going to attend. I might if the mood strikes me. Guess I need to decide so I can purchase a ticket.

Nothing going on in my area...nothing I'm aware of. "Swag bags" are usually a disappointment...why is that? I guess because when I think "swag bag", I think "Academy Awards". That's my problem. But seriously, I don't want nuthin' I can pick up at the dollar store/neighborhood beauty supply in a "swag bag".

I was hoping the swag bags were filled with the sponsors' products...*crosses fingers*

I am going to wait, to seeing if my cousin will be in the area before I decide...and they have a promo code on the ticket page...gotta find that too!

Aww man, looks like I kinda missed out. The Koils by Nature DMV event has the swag bag tix sold out, they have group rates available and $20 at the door, I'm not sure I wanna go bad enough to pay $20 just to get in.

Will do. PM me your contact info. My Satuday morning bootcamp is from 8:30-9:30 so I could def get showered and dressed and make it there for this event. I'm on the fence. $20 just to get in (I'd have liked to see what was in the swag bags)....they had better be vending or have some give aways or something else going on for that price besides meeting and mingling with with natural folks. I do that here for free.

I'm attending one of the NYC meet ups tomorrow. I'm rather excited. This is my first natural hair meet up. I'm a transitioning still but I'm sure there's a lot of information and feedback I can gain
