We would like to thank The Natural Beauty Squad for giving us the responsibility to handle their PR for the event. The movement started by the founders is one that has been a long time coming.
How do we extend our Gratitude!
On 22 October 2022, The Natural Beauty Squad succeeded in hosting its first Spring Natural Hair and Beauty Festival in Gqerbha, which marked a day in history for us!
Normally, we have these Festivals in Cape Town and we decided to take it National and the support was above our expectations.
On Behalf of The Natural Beauty Squad, we would like to extend a warm thank you to each and every participant who purchased a ticket and for helping us make this ONE SPECTACULAR EVENT! Definitely one for the books.
We would like to thank each and every vendor, DJ, Photographers, Madlala Public Relations and Mpuma Kapa TV for covering the event.

Your generous contribution helped make our vision a reality by making some very expectant naturals extremely happy with a goodie bag containing your products. We are ecstatic to have been able to present our participants either with an item or gift hamper of your amazing brand. It is extremely wonderful to receive feedback from our festival-goers who have shared their gratitude for a sample of your product.
Not for getting our phenomenal MC's! Kurt Terblance (also known as Boeta B, Gereldine) & Jolene Barnes
they have complimented each other so well! They didn't just entertain you, but we had so much laughter and fun! A very big Thank you to both of them.
Our Speakers:
Vivian from Sheer Elegance, Dr Anne-marie Du Plessis, Claire Barnes from I Am Natural, Abigail Witbooi from Krulkop Society , Jolene Barnes from pret_tyful , Marenda Speelmam from QueenM Style and Erica Home. A very big thank for helping us make this event successful.
The team is incredibly PROUD of what was accomplished with this festival. This festival focused on the expression of naturally-haired individuals, male and female alike, giving them permission to lose their inhibitions and letting go of that which curbs them from being themselves in society. An arena where freedom of expression is not frowned upon, but celebrated. Where taking up space is a requirement. Where crowns are adorned with pride!
Next Year, we will go bigger & better!
If you had a bad experience or the day didn't turn out the way you wish it would, we as The Natural Beauty Squad would like to apologise and would like to hear from you as well.
Dont forget to LIKE & FOLLOW us on our socials, for our next event, launch or programme.
Its bye for now! We see you, we acknowledge you and we thank you....
Warm Regards
The Natural Beauty Squad
