Multi-talented Kendal Turner


"My name is Kendal S. Turner. I am a poet and author. I was featured in the November  2011 issue of Essence magazine in the natural hair edition (with Kerry Washington on the cover). I am also on the bag of Afro Puff weave by lord & cliff. I have been natural for about 6 years now with locs."

Being a Poet and published Author: "I started writing poetry about 5 years ago as a therapeutic way of releasing all of the toxic emotions I felt from my past and present. What started out as healing for me eventually ended up helping other people.  They would tell me “you need to write a book!” because my poetry is so personal and transparent. So I googled “how to write a book” and I wrote and self published all of them.  One thing led to another and the next thing I knew I was a local celebrity. I love to encourage other women to be true to themselves and live their own truth because you never know who may be inspired by you.” - Kendal



Poetry - Kinks Koils and Kurls

Kinks Koils and Kurls
by Belinda LeBlanc

My hair doesn't confine me, it enhances me
Letting everyone know that confidently bold is what i am
Adorned in a crown of textured tresses
It makes a statement that I alone couldn't even say
Whether its twisted up in a sexy up doo or free flowing voluptuous curls....

It is all a reflection of me
It's texture and complexity matches me to a T
My Natural Habitat is my solace and something most won't understand....
No you can't touch it
Yes its mine, and contrary to popular belief I LOVE IT!
My hair is my attitude....each strand holds an untold story of struggle; pride, confidence, history, heritage, and most importantly love
I was born in to these Mahogany Roots and i wouldn't change it for the world.

In My Nappy Hair - by UniverSoul

"In My Nappy Hair "
 

In my nappy hair
exists exotic energy
that has been here for centuries
strengthening me continuously for infinity
allowing me to muster the ability
to see, act and think clearly.

In my nappy hair
The soul of Afrika lives
Which gives
my spirit culture and foundation
Enlightens me on the essence of creation
Brings me education and elevation
of the truth of my beloved Nubian nation

In my nappy hair are Afrikan songs
that make me STRONG
that tells me who I am and where I belong.

In my nappy hair
There is positivity in a large capacity
traveling at high velocities
possessing infinite possibilities
of peace, progression and prosperity.

In my nappy hair is powerfully
refined protein
packed with profound principle
which makes me an invincible King.

In my nappy hair
Knowledge, wisdom and insight
have been twisted together to loc
forming forces of passion and fire

My nappy hair
is natural
is magical
is spiritual
is original
is ESSENTIAL

In my nappy hair
I've found FREEDOM and HAPPINESS.
