Finally back on socials again 😅 I've been gone with good reason... I have been developing a personal project called Afro Index, a searchable reference library for Black hairstyles! Launching March 21st, save the date! 👀✨

Afro Index poster. The logo is at the top, a girl with an afro and a magnifying glass is the icon. Below the logo is a tagline, "A reference library for Black hairstyles." The launch date is large white text that reads 21.03.2026. Two black women lean on each other, their hairstyles are twists and braids. Afro Index poster.

Three sticky notes with commonly confused hairsyle terms are on the background, connected by red thread.Afro Index poster.

A screenshot of the website shows a filter system and a grid of hairstyles.

I did the cover for the November issue of Scientific American! I also did the inside spread for the cover story, but I’ll post that another day. A huge thanks to longtime favorite art director Michael Mrak for bringing me into this project. A lot of love went into everything, and I hope that shows
