Today on the Friends in Beauty Podcast I’m sharing with you an important + IMPACTFUL event that is going down this Sunday, February 28, 2021.

 

The Black Beauty Roster is hosting its first Virtual Beauty Summit and it’s going to be EPIC!

 

The Black Beauty Roster's mission is to bring meaningful diversity across the fashion and entertainment industry by amplifying the work and talent of Black Beauty Professionals.

 

They believe this can be done by increasing visibility, access and opportunity for Black Beauty Pros, while also educating the industry and non BIPOC Beauty Professionals on textured hair and diverse skin tones.

They focus on creating opportunities, increasing education to support the industry and beauty professionals, and advocating for talented artists.

 

Black Beauty Roster is built on Opportunity, Education, and Advocacy.

 

The Black Beauty Roster was created by my friends over at Bonnti App at the start of the pandemic because they saw how their friends and colleagues in the beauty industry were struggling.

 

The Black Beauty roster is a platform to help Black beauty pros find opportunities, mentorship, and build their careers.

 

As you may or may not know inclusion in the beauty + entertainment industry has been an ongoing issue for years. Unqualified beauty professionals have been hired to work with talent of color or just ignored by brands all together and we’ve had enough. It’s time for things to change.

 

So, on February 28th they are launching the BBR Summit, a one day digital event bringing together leaders, change makers, influencers and advocates in fashion, beauty, and entertainment to teach, talk, and learn about advocacy, allyship, and equity in beauty and beyond + come up with plan for action.
