Celebrating World Afro Day with Cashblack

Every year on September 15th, the world comes together to recognise and celebrate the beauty, history, and significance of Afro hair. At Cashblack, we’re proud to stand with the global movement that uplifts Black identity, challenges negative stereotypes, and empowers our community to embrace their natural crowns with pride.

Why World Afro Day Matters

Afro hair has always been more than just a style – it’s a statement, a legacy, and a symbol of resilience. From centuries of cultural heritage to the modern natural hair movement, our hair carries stories of identity, creativity, and strength. Unfortunately, it has also faced discrimination and stigma in schools, workplaces, and wider society.

World Afro Day was founded to change that narrative – celebrating Afro hair in all its glory while educating and inspiring change across industries and communities.

Cashblack & Celebrating Black-Owned Haircare Brands

At Cashblack, our mission is to connect shoppers with Black-owned businesses – and the Afro haircare industry is one of the most vibrant and innovative spaces in our community. From nourishing products designed for curls, coils, and kinks, to creative entrepreneurs redefining beauty standards, these businesses are doing more than selling products – they’re shaping culture.

By shopping Black-owned this World Afro Day, you’re:

• Supporting founders who understand the unique needs of our hair.
• Keeping money circulating within our communities.
• Helping to dismantle barriers faced by Black entrepreneurs.

Our Crown, Our Power

World Afro Day is more than a celebration – it’s a reminder of the beauty and resilience of Black culture. At Cashblack, we’re committed to amplifying Black businesses and voices all year round, and today we celebrate the rich diversity of Afro hair in all its forms.

Let’s continue to uplift, support, and embrace our natural crowns – not just today, but every day.
