In this uplifting story, Danica visits Confidence Salon. What special natural hair style will make her feel fresh and proud? Braids? No. Cornrows? Uh-uh. Bubble twists? Nah. As Danica experiences premium wash day pampering along with the love and affirmation of her stylist, she opens up about her insecurities and discovers that the stylist is Gabby herself. As Miss G shares how she found courage and confidence through designing an innovative hair bow and launching a successful female- and Black-owned business, Danica gains confidence in her own beauty and value, and finds boldness to express herself and do hard things.
