Touches of Nykesa
Touches of Nykesa- Hair Educator,
Plant-based haircare, and confidence for textured hair of all ages.
Can you guess what we’re creating?
In this Crown Confidence Workshop participants started designing the blueprint for a very special confidence project. Every sketch, color, and idea represents a piece of who they are and who they’re becoming.
We’re keeping the final reveal a surprise for now… 🤫
What do you think they’re creating?
Leave your best guess in the comments! The person who guesses correctly (or gets the closest) will get a shout-out after the big reveal.
This is what confidence looks like—imagining, creating, and believing in yourself before anyone else sees the finished masterpiece. 💜🌱
When Kimberly joined the Crown Confidence Workshops at the end of January, she shared that she didn’t feel confident wearing her natural hair. She wanted to learn, but more than anything, she wanted to feel comfortable embracing her crown. Seven months later, her story looks very different.
Today, Kimberly proudly wears her natural hair with confidence. She’s learned how to care for it, style it, and continues to grow in her understanding of healthy hair and self-confidence. Her journey is proof that when education meets encouragement, lives are transformed.
This is why the Crown Confidence Workshops and Lil’ Crowns Big Confidence Storytime Experience matter.
We don’t just teach styling hair or braiding.
We cultivate confidence. We provide education. We create safe spaces where children, teens, and adults learn to embrace who they are from the inside out.
Now, we’re inviting you to be part of that mission.
🌱 Planting Seeds of Confidence: The Crown Garden Experience is more than our anniversary celebration, it’s our 5 year anniversary/ fundraiser to help us continue bringing these life-changing workshops, storytime experiences, books, and confidence-building programs to our community.
Every ticket investment, every donation, and every sponsorship helps us reach another child, another teen, and another adult who simply needs someone to remind them that their crown is worthy.
If Kimberly’s story touched your heart, we invite you to help us plant even more seeds of confidence.

Together, we’re growing more than healthy hair, we’re growing confident communities, one crown at a time.

Kimberly has been attending our Crown Confidence Workshops since January, and hearing her say she now confidently wears her natural hair out is EVERYTHING. 👑✨
This is why I do what I do.
My mission is to help every Black and Brown man, woman, and child fall so deeply in love with their natural crown that nothing, and no one, can ever tilt it.
The confidence. The knowledge. The joy. That’s what these workshops are all about.
🌱 As we celebrate 5 years of Touches of Nykesa at our Planting Seeds of Confidence: The Crown Garden Experience, I’d love for you to be part of the mission.

Over the last five years, Touches of Nykesa has had the honor of serving families, teaching natural hair care, reading to children, hosting Crown Confidence Workshops, creating the Lil’ Crowns Big Confidence book series, and showing young people that caring for their crown is also about caring for their confidence.
Every braid, every wash day, every workshop, every story, and every conversation has been about planting seeds that continue to grow.
Now it’s time to celebrate that journey.

Wash day is more than just cleansing for me, it’s a full reset for my crown 👑✨
On my 4A–4C hair, I always make sure to hydrate before taking my hair down to reduce breakage and keep my strands soft and protected. Moisture is everything before manipulation!
After takedown, I take my time to massage my scalp, not just for relaxation, but to stimulate blood flow, support healthy growth, and reconnect with my crown 🌿
Healthy hair starts with intentional care, patience, and love.
