SHOW NOTES
HARPER MILES
A member of the fabulous “Beautiful” tour, starred off broadway in “Bat Outta Hell”, and when the pandemic settles, she will star in the “Caroline or change” revival on broadway!
As a kid, her mom styled her hair every day so she grew up around hair care/styling. As a braiding goddess and in order to help out with hair during the pandemic, she has helped tons of people style their hair! Although she’s not a hair stylist, she knows what works and loves to help out anyway.
Her hair journey definitely had its ups and downs, from hating her natural hair growing up to learning to embrace and love it!
Products used:
Alykai Moisture (black owned, available at Target) products: Oil, serum, leave in conditioner, and a hair parfait (her favorite product), Cream of Nature’s shampoo and conditioner,
Lock Method: Liquid (leave in), oil (sets), cream (seals it)!
Is your hair low or high porosity? After dipping a strand of hair in water, if it:
Sinks: LOW POROSITY!
Floats: HIGH POROSITY!
Wig Prep: Simply 5 corn rows all the way back!
Good conversation about New York City reopening and what’s to come! A future full of ripped broadway performers trying to fit in year old costumes seems accurate.
