Black Boomer Besties from Brooklyn
This is what the world needs now: two free-thinking “seasoned” Black women speaking their truth and inspiring others to do the same. Shaped by 45 years of friendship that began at the prestigious Brooklyn Technical High School through the Ivy League, medical school, marriages, divorces, triumphs, parenting queer children, life-threatening illness and many many amazing adventures. Each week, besties Leslie Osei-Tutu and Angella Fraser will push against boundaries in love, culture, careers, faith, politics and out-dated assumptions about women of a certain age. Remember, you’re never too old to change your mind…or your hair! (but more on that later :-)All views are our own and do not reflect the views of our institution/company.

Episode 3
“I don’t have a problem with a hairstyle unless that hairstyle has a problem with you”. Sounds simple enough when coming from an expert like Brooklyn, NY based Board Certified Dermatologist Dr. Achiamah Osei-Tutu. For the rest of us we just spend time, money and energy trying to get our tresses to cooperate. In this episode, besties Angella and Leslie get to the ‘root’ of the types and causes of hair loss, discuss how hair may manifest systemic disease and describe the ways in which culture influences hair health.
