Nouvo Studio Natural Hair and Wellness Center continued to pour into the next generation with their 5th annual ‘Beauty for Tweens,’ Wellness Day. More than thirty teenaged girls were privy to a day filled with interactive activities, product give-a-ways, hair demo’s, workshops, lunch and Q&A sessions. Wearing her natural afro, speaker and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Khalliah Bryant presented a workshop that delved into self esteem attributes, body dysmorphia, and overall mental wellbeing. Tweens quickly held up their hands and asked questions pertaining to their body image and how to be more confident in their school and social environments. “Each year this event gets better and better. The youth that attend this day of beauty inspire the staff and we want to reciprocate so the girls can be role models to others and not be afraid to speak up and speak out,” said organizer and shop owner Gwen Stroud. -Article written by Jacksonville Free Press
