One of the most frequently asked questions I get is, “My parents said I shouldn’t get locs because I won’t be able to get a job! Is that true?”

I’m a 27 year old graphic designer and natural hair obsessed video blogger based out of NYC. I have no problem confessing that I’m a full blown internet nerd. I’ve spent the past 4 years building an online career that let’s me be my own boss, has helped me make friends around the world and given me some amazing opportunities. I hope you’ll check me out and get a laugh or maybe some inspiration from my online exploits.

I Love Franchesca
I interviewed for the current job (8 years ago) in the extra awkward loc stage. Creative pinning and a headband and I felt good. I got the job. I never had an issue with looking unprofessional as my locs were growing. I had locs for 7 years and I also got the same comments she mentions (I love you're braids….)
I subscribe to Franchesca. She's the BOMB. Watch her comedy videos too, she's hilarious.
thanks again for the feature Nikki!
SHE IS SO PRETTY! great personality to top it!
i just loc'd my 10 year olds hair about 6 months ago. getting a job later never crossed my mind, she wanted to get it done and i let her. by the time she enters the job market she will be able to do whatever she pleases with her locs, be it an updo, ponytail, bun…i am not worried because her intelligence and personality will be what they focus on, not her hair!
i love her….
She's so charming! Beautiful face, very funny and informative and gorgeous hair!
I like that Franchesca…I subscribe to her channel :). Her hair is always on point and as with any way one wears their hair, natural, locs, wigs, weaves, relaxers, it's how you maintain your hair for optimal results. Which plays a part in our appearance and getting that job. I know MANY successful Woman wearing beautiful locs. At the end of the day, can you do the job and do it well :).
