I had an opportunity to visit Buckroe Beach and Park one afternoon and it was wonderful! It was one Sunday afternoon after church and the weather was great! If you are looking for a nice place for the family to walk, play, and enjoy the feel of the beach without the large crowd and hard-to-find parking spaces, this is the place to visit. 

I have teenagers who are in high school and they visit Buckroe Beach from time-to-time for the movie night.  I know they are going more for socializing  and interacting with other teens, but it is a pretty safe environment with officers who regularly patrol the area.  I have more pictures below.

One of the categories of this new e-world is entitled For Parents of African American Young Girls and Teen Girls. It presents helpful information for mothers and fathers seeking advice, ideas, and suggestions. The information addresses issues and concerns that parents encounter when guiding and raising their African American daughters.  

Another interesting focus of the website is the High Achievers.   High Achievers are young girls and teen girls recommended by their parents for personalized recognition. Recognition may be for academic and sports related achievements or parents might choose to acknowledge their daughters attitudes, personal growth efforts, and responsible behaviors as a form of reinforcement or kudos so to speak.  Family members, friends, and optimistic visitors provide encouraging comments and electronic pats on the back.

Special features include numerous links to programs that encourage participation of African American young girls and teen girls is a national listing includes organizations, camps, clubs, etiquette info, and mentoring programs. Contact information and links to these valuable resources are all available for anyone seeking alternatives for improving the outcome of young black teen girls.

There is so much media coverage of African American teen girls and alarming statistics about teen pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases, and inappropriate conduct.  I believe that in order to help the girls who have fallen off track, we have to expose them to something other than reminders of their offenses.   Advertising their shortcomings has been the norm for some time now and in my humble opinion, it is not helping but it is breaking their spirit.

On Afro Puffs and Ponytails, they strive to counterbalance the girls’ well-publicized shortfalls by introducing an overflow of encouragement and hopeful possibilities.  If a teen girl has made numerous calamitous decisions and she is alive, she still has an opportunity to change her path towards a flourishing and rewarding life.  Afro Puffs and Ponytails is an attempt to demonstrate this belief by serving as a positive website of empowerment and inspiration.

 ”Who does your hair?”

I am also aware that there are many online directories, but most of them are national online directories or the online yellow pages for areas outside of Hampton Roads.  I am the founder and I live in the Hampton Roads area.  I plan to seek out all of the best salons to include on this website and since I live here, I can do it!

It is my plan and intentions to include any other helpful information about beauty and supplies.  Salons can be rated and comments are welcomed. 

I encourage hair stylists and local beauty suppliers to take advantage of this personalized service.  Joining this website has  it’s benefits, and ranking well in google and other popular search engines for the Hampton Roads area is just one of those benefits. Advertising for hair stylists, and promoting products and events sponsored for and by black hair salons is another.

In the near future, we will be accepting orders for creating websites for hair salons.  We can assist you with setting up a free website or  a website with your personalized purchased domain name and hosting. It depends on what fits your needs.

Visit us frequently and stay on the look out for services that we will provide to help improve your business marketing and income possibilities.
