In this bonus episode, Kashif offers a brief history of beauty supply store extensions, otherwise known as ‘pack hair’. He traces its emergence as a social marker. Moving 18th century England, he examines the parallels betweens wigs and wealth. Blake (an actual square dancing champion), walks us through the architecture and history of square dancing. From France to Henry Ford, he explores the Americanization of the iconic dance, considering more accessible and queer (of course!) models.
