Hola Chicas,
I’ve been fielding tons of emails about the upcoming NYC event sponsored by Mizani… questions about ticketing, location, times, and inquiries about the missing RSVP page.
So yeah, about that…
While I’d like to accommodate everyone, we’re at, get this, three times capacity. I had no idea the curly love was so strong in NYC…y’all literally shut down the RSVP page in 48 hours! This has NEVER happened before and we’ve been scrambling all week to make it right.
At any rate, I strive to create a casual and classy atmosphere for curl talk – and 10,000 of us, sweating, shoulder to shoulder, isn’t anybody’s idea of a grand time. You’d be pissed, trust me.
But, get this –
I’m having drinks with blogger LoveBrownSugar at Pranna Restaurant immediately following the official event, on October 20 from 10pm until…
While there won’t be any giveaways, there’s no cover and you’ll get to meet a bunch of gorgeous naturals. Plus, I’m hoping to meet you and have a drink or two! If you plan to attend, please RSVP to nikki@curlynikki.com, using ‘after party’ in the subject line.
Hope to see you there!
Nik
You didn't know the curly love was so strong in NYC? Really? Don't stroll through Brooklyn– unless, of course, you're into having your mind blown. Welcome to the city!
*Raises hand* Uh…excuse me Ms. Nikki, Do you think you will ever come to San Diego? I feel so alone out here no meetups hardly any good products in our beauty supplies…curls…mixed chicks and kinky curly that's about it…what's going on?!..
Oh noez! Ill be coming right after work (Im a NYC public school teacher)…and after being on my feet all day, I dunno how Ill feel about being packed in 🙁 Hope I get a chance to meet you though 🙂 I know I cant make the post meet-up meet-up (work early in the morning)
See you soon!!!
Yea Its wayyy too many of us in NYC lol even tho i rsvp i was hoping to make the 1st venue 🙁 but i guess some other time
Curlynikki, I'll send you an email offline with my contact info!
NYC is nicknamed the "Big Apple" for a reason; we do things big!
Either Yankee or Citi Field (Shea) should be considered for next time. Shoot, I would even suggest the Apollo or Beacon theatres!
Nik, for your 5 yr anniversary, I hope you go REALLY BIG and do a "CurlyNikki Caribbean Cruise!" That's two years from now and would give everybody plenty of time to plan and save.
Sooo did you send info to those that are confirmed? I am so sad I was really looking forward and was gonna big chop the day before the event….real tears!
@anon, where you be? I feel so isolated! Would love to meet you and other naturals in the area.
@anon, LOL!!! OMG, lol, that was him 🙂
Nik, don't come too early in 2012. You'll freeze your tail off LOL. it won't start getting comfortably warm IMHO until May…
Off topic, but I think I saw your hubby yesterday here in SC on my drive to campus. Does he by chance drive a grayish benz? Since there are not that many black people here in town, i pay attention when i see one. I saw him and thought, that guy looks familiar! Then it struck me it was from seeing his pic on your blog. Small world.
@ Kira, of course! I feel terrible, I had no idea the response would be like this.
@Michelle, LOL! Girl, yes. Yankee Stadium, lol. I plan to come back to NYC early 2012.
this makes me VERY sad….I rsvp'd on time and everything *tears*. In the event that some chicas have to change their rsvp will those of us who were BOOTED OFF (lol) be notified?
Tried to tell you we needed a football stadium for the meet up. Next time rent Yankee Stadium LOL.
I RSVP'd and got an email but no real details. Is there one coming?
awww man…and here i am at school in some town 3 states away.
