Discovering her past: Element uncovers her roots through African Ancestry DNA testing Tarik Moody
OK, this is so crazy to say, but I actually AM a big Kendrick Lamar fan. The oddity isn't that I really enjoy “K.Dot;” it's that I didn't realize how much until I went to his "Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers" concert in Milwaukee Thursday night. Let me preface this by explaining I love music, but I really love live music. Admittedly, I don’t attend concerts all that often (enter that particular day’s excuse here). So, I had no […]

“I love a slicked edge. Slicking my hair back elevates the style, I just feel dressed up,” says Abigail who works in digital marketing. “I feel like my hairstyle isn’t ‘finished’ when my edges aren’t slicked.

It’s part of the process.” Abigail, 26, is one of the many Black women with a love for slicking their baby […]
