VIRAL KIDS: THESE YOUNG MODELS ARE SHOWING OFF THE BEAUTY AND DIVERSITY OF NATURAL HAIR

Here’s a little style for your weekend experience. These young models are rocking their natural curls and kinks for CreativeSoul Photo, and we are loving every bit of it. Flip through the gallery to see our favorite picks.

Atlanta-based CreativeSoul Photo brought an inspiring artistic vision to life that highlights the beauty of black girls and their natural hair. Regis and Kahran are the husband and wife duo behind the photography studio, and their series Afro Art represents their expertise in capturing portraits as well as visual storytelling. The striking images feature young girls in elaborate costuming and hairstyles, from a Baroque-era aesthetic to steampunk clothing to fierce high-fashion ensembles.

The portraits of girls featured in Afro Art are stylish and carry themselves with confidence and grace. The feelings evoked from the series speak to the larger idea surrounding it. “We feel that it is so important for kids of color to be able to see positive images that look like them in the media,” Kahran told My Modern Met in an email. “Unfortunately the lack of diversity often plays into the stereotypes that they are not ‘good enough’ and often forces kids to have low self-esteem.”(Source)
