To everyone who can’t stand this world the way it is... who is sick and tired of so many people being treated as less than human... who knows that the claim of “liberty and justice for all” is a cruel lie... who is righteously enraged that injustice and inequality go on, and on, and on, despite false promises and honeyed words from people in power (or those seeking power)... everyone who agonizes about where things are headed and the fact that to be young now means being denied a decent future, or any future at all... everyone who has ever dreamed about something much better, or even wondered whether that is possible... everyone who hungers for a world without oppression, exploitation, poverty, and destruction of the environment... everyone who has the heart to fight for something that is really worth fighting for: YOU need to be part of this revolution.

 The World Natural Hair Show returns for its 23rd year this April 22-23 at the Georgia International Convention Center! More than an annual event, The World Natural Hair Show is a cultural movement that continues to positively change society's views of black beauty, cultures and lifestyle. This year's show focuses on the concepts of self-love, confidence and community through educational workshops and panels, awards ceremonies, over 250 vendors and leaders within multicultural beauty, live music and entertainment, and meaningful conversations that uplift and encourage the community.

The 2023 show's theme of self-love, confidence and community embodies the event's larger mission and ethos.
