Gain Commercial Celebrates Naturals
Great news: I’m switching to Gain (sorry Tide it was good while it lasted)! Gain definitely earned it’s place as a HairPolitik Highlight, a company or organization that adds positive images in the media of black women and their hair, particularly naturals. And, because they are embracing me and my style, I’m embracing their new scents. I applaud the new Gain commercial, which takes place in a black hair salon and features model Tomiko Fraser Hines and the voice of Wanda Sykes. Show Gain some love via their facebook page and check out Tomiko’s Youtube vlog and facebook page. And of course, much love to Tomiko’s stylist, Felicia Leatherwood of Loving Your Hair with Natural Care.
Transcript: “Would you ever pick your style off a salon wall? Not in a million years. Inspired by all who challenge the same old thing comes Gain Icy Fresh Fizz, in other scents that are like you, anything but ordinary.”

I Love My Fro (featuring a very candid interview with Tomiko!)
Thanks for the mention! By the way, I love your concept of Hairpolitik Highlight. It’s very unique and can contribute a lot to conversations about natural hair.

The pleasure is all mine my dear. Feel free to re-post anything you see of interest. If you see any highlights (or lowlights) send them my way and I’ll be sure to give you lots more mentions.
