OUR HAPPY CLIENT'S
Working with It’s A Wrap Project has definitely taken our outreach events to for Medicare/Medicaid beneficiaries to the next level. Julia is very professional, organized and on time.

As an auntie, I wholeheartedly endorse the Its A Wrap Project as an invaluable after-school activity for middle school students. This innovative initiative goes beyond conventional learning, providing our children with a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the diverse tapestry of global cultures through the art of head-wrapping. My daughter/son participated enthusiastically in the workshops, where she/he not only learned the intricate techniques of head-wrapping from various cultures but also gained a profound understanding of the cultural significance behind each style. The project not only fosters creativity and self-expression but also cultivates a genuine appreciation for diversity and inclusion. I am impressed by the well-structured curriculum that ensures a gradual progression of skills, allowing students to build their expertise over time. The inclusion of guest instructors and community members adds authenticity to the learning experience, connecting our children with real-world practitioners and expanding their horizons. Moreover, the Its A Wrap Project creates a supportive and inclusive environment where boys and girls alike can explore and celebrate cultural traditions. The showcase events provide a platform for our children to proudly exhibit their creations, fostering a sense of accomplishment and boosting their confidence. I believe that this project not only enriches our children's education but also contributes to building a more culturally aware and tolerant community. Its A Wrap Project is a commendable endeavor that seamlessly combines art, culture, and education, making it a valuable addition to our middle school's after-school activities.

HI THERE, I GO BY JULIA
Approximately 50% of women of color encounter various hair challenges, which can lead to feelings of isolation, depression, and anxiety among affected individuals.
Introduction: 'It's A Wrap Project' was founded in the summer of 2016 by our Wrapitan and Founder, Julia Spraggins-Byrd. Her journey, rooted in a medical diagnosis of Alopecia Areata, is a story of self-acceptance and beautiful innovation.
Her Alopecia Journey: Over three years, I explored various options to regrow my hair—attempting injections, massages, vitamins, and other rejuvenation methods, all without success. It was a painful, embarrassing, and a challenging journey. As many understand, a woman's hair holds great significance as her crowning glory.
The Turning Point: To camouflage my hair loss, I started wrapping my head with fabrics and scarves. This strategy wasn't foreign to me. Since the 1970s, I had wrapped my head as part of my fashion style. I've always loved the look and versatility of adorning my head with fabrics."
Acceptance and Peace: "By the time I was formally diagnosed with Alopecia, I had reached a place of acceptance and peace. I owe my acceptance of my diagnosis to head wrapping and using other creative ways of styling my hair to hide my hair loss.
Contributing to Research: During my appointment when I was diagnosed, the doctor asked me to participate in a study on 'hair loss,' saying that many women of many ethnicities are suffering from this condition. I wasn't aware that hair loss was a problem for other women. I thought I had been on my own very personal battle.'
