Hey Curlies & Kinkettes!

I have been working on a new natural hair comic strip with my younger brother, Michael Gray (whose art skills are serious!) and I’m excited to finally show it to you all! I wanted to find a fun way to joke about natural hair and a lighthearted way to comment on some of the hair and self-image related issues that arise within the Black community. I’ve been mentioning  this to my brother for a while now and we were finally able to get down to it. The goal is to release new strips every Tuesday so make sure to check back for new comics!

And so, I present to you…

“UNTWISTED”

Let me know what you think so far in the comments!

And while you’re here…one of my brother’s drawings:

    That comic is awesome! Can I PIN it? If the Pin button works I’m going to do it. I have a Lock-a-licious board. Your brother’s drawing is beautiful – a lot to draw a person in. Love your blog. Glad to have found you via Twitter.
