Dazhane Leah’s latest photo project changes how we look at afros

Spring is most definitely in the air, so enjoy this beautiful combo of afros and flowers by @dazhaneleah

 

Last week Dazhane Leah’s photo project Afro Bloomin’ went viral. The photo project was exploring what the phrase ‘black power’ really means to people.  Dazhane said she chose to decorate the model’s afro with flowers, because she believes the two complement each other. ‘I see beauty in natural hair and I see beauty in flowers—together I think they go hand in hand and I wanted to express my own passions and opinions as well as [the views of] others through my photos.’

Dazhane adds that she was inspired to work on this project after watching a video made by the Huffington Post about how afros have become trendy but may have lost their radical roots: Afros Are Back, But Are They Still Radical? https://t.co/miOBL2V4f0
