Ballerific Woman: Ursula Stephen, The Visionary Hairstylist

In a perfect world, men and women would receive equal pay. African American women would be presented the same opportunities as their white counterparts. Rejection would be based on qualifications rather than race.

Unfortunately, this world is far from perfect, however, there are people, more specifically women, who have dedicated their time, money and education to make a positive change. They’ve used their experiences and their encounters with injustices to fight and/or create more opportunities for their children and their children’s children, in an effort to make the world a better place. They’ve put our pain and problems on their backs and created space for change, new opportunities for our brothers and sisters to excel and succeed in a world that is designed against us. This is #BlackExcellence. These are #BallerificWomen.

One of these amazing women is #UrsulaStephen, the visionary hairstylist. Stephen has styled some of our favorite celebs to date, from #Rihanna, #MaryJBlige, #GraceByers, #Zendaya, #SerenaWilliams, #Beyoncé, #JourdanDunn, #TarajiPHenson, and more.
