For the first time ever the Basquiat family has opened the estate’s vault and given us the opportunity to see hundreds of never before seen works from the late great Jean-Michel Basquiat. Led by his sisters Jeanine Heriveaux and Lisane Basquiat, the Jean-Michel King Pleasure exhibit showcases rare and never before seen pieces by the late artist. 
In a live, intimate conversation with Chelsea cohost of Go Off, Sis at The King Pleasure Exhibit in Los Angeles,  Jeanine and Lisane open up about their decision to share more of Jean-Michel’s work, the legacy he left behind, their family and ancestry, and how they’ve carried the legacy forward in their own right as sisters, mothers, and entrepreneurial Black women. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Close your eyes... let's throw it back to the OG salon - the days of hot combs, “hold your ear,” and your momma's attempt at your favorite styles that NEVER came out right. Now let's jump to the present…we now have products designed for our texture, “click-to-ship” lace fronts, ombre micro links, exotic bundles, and hefty deposits to book your favorite stylist. Whatever your style flavor, we can SAY we have evolved! 
The Go Off, Sis crew is closing out this capsule season sharing hilarious, yet traumatic stories of Black hair salons and hair care. We asked YOU the Unbothered community for your hair trauma stories and you surely went off! From the first perm to the failures of your first DIY dye that you surely regret, WE HEARD YOU!

Pop Quiz: What is the one hairstyle that had Black women in a chokehold? Think about it! Ok, let's go down memory lane. The Go Off, Sis crew is throwing it back to their favorite styles, hair moments, and how they could never get that "hair bump" right! In this episode, we are talking about our personal relationship with our hair and the influence of pop culture, music, and icons that impact us. We are giving flowers to TV shows and cultural moments that deserve a "chef's kiss" for amazing hair design and calling out the shows that did Black characters dirty (you know who you are!).   Our special guest is the talented actress Novi Brown, best known as Sabrina on the BET comedy-drama series, Sistas. Novi is bringing BIG Scorpio energy while sharing life on set, the importance of African American hair, and how she learned to love her own hair. Hosted on Acast.

Wigs Not Sitting Right ft. Novi Brown

Dating + relationships + hair combined can be as complicated and stressful as securing Renaissance tickets. Today, we're going into taboo subjects surrounding romance and appearance. The Go Off, Sis crew is going IN and asking serious questions about Black women and hair: 
When do we put the bonnet on in front of a "new" bae?When do we reveal the “Meek Mill” cornrows under the wig?Would you pull off your wig during your first (you know what) with a mate?Do you have a particular hairstyle that you wear when you're looking for a new partner?
  And for more volume - Our special guest is the talented recording artist and actress, aka the new Hilary Banks, Coco Jones. Coco talks about her career, music, and how she'll never put limits on what's achievable in her life. Tune in! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Bae & Bonnets ft. Coco Jones

Hey Sis, WE'RE BACK!!! During this capsule edition of Go Off, Sis, presented by Dove, we are giving homage to the epicenter of Black hair. Today we're talking about the "BIG CHOP". The “Big Chop” has been a major expression for Black women that symbolizes release, expression, freedom, and discovery. So we think it's time to Cut It Off, Sis! Whether we’re cutting off hair, the toxic stigmas around our hair, or reliving the time that we had to cut it off (not by choice). To add more volume to the roundtable, we have a true beauty maven with a resume, longer than your favorite Cardi B lace front, celebrity hairstylist Lacy Redway. Lacy is redefining beauty standards and advocating for why there needs to be more Black creative talent on set and in the HMU trailer.
