Water First the Moisture Retention Lab

Water First: Moisture Retention Lab is a hands-on natural hair education workshop for teens ages 15–19. Students will learn what moisture means for textured hair, why hair can still feel dry after conditioning, and how water, products, and daily habits work together in a healthy routine.

Through simple demonstrations and activities, students will explore common moisture myths, observe hair flexibility, practice reading product labels, and build a routine that fits their own hair. This is a supportive learning space focused on understanding and caring for your crown—there’s no requirement to cut, straighten, chemically alter, or style your hair.

Students do not need to arrive with freshly washed or specially styled hair. Come ready to learn, ask questions, and leave with practical hair-care knowledge you can use at home.
