Synopsis
Da Kink in My Hair follows the lives of a group of women who let their hair down in more ways than one at Letty's, a vibrant and bustling hair salon in Toronto's Caribbean community.
The show tackles the universal themes of life and love while highlighting the fiery and hilarious chatter that can often be overheard.
Novelette Campbell (Ordena Stephens-Thompson), the smart and vivacious owner of Letty's, has all the answers for her clients' dilemmas but can't always figure out how to tame the tangles in her own life.
Joined by her zany sister, Joy (Trey Anthony), her Jamaican born 14-year-old old son, Dre (Conroy Stewart) and her quirky family of stylists, including the wide-eyed new girl, Starr (Ngozi Paul) and the wicked-tongued bad boy, Nigel (Richard Fagon), the only thing Letty's lacks is a little peace and quiet.
