Being unapologetically Xtra is getting us through right now. 'Doing the most', especially of the things we love in a time where 'doing' is 80% canceled, is giving us our own kind of freedom.
We're exuding Xtra energy now more than ever - feeling ourselves and not caring about how others perceive it is our new love language.
Showing up to our first Zoom call of the day in a full face and long AF locs because it feels good, is ENOUGH of a reason - no explanation required.
Being/doing extra looks different to everyone. Yet at the heart of all ‘extraness’ is the expression of living without apology. A rebellious act against the assumptions of how we 'should' act, speak, and express ourselves. Being unapologetically Xtra is our way of defying those restrictions in a way that pleases us.
We asked The Boho Tribe about the Xtra energy they’ve been exhibiting, and girl, we were not disappointed...

(Oop, Xtra since birth.)
"I flip my extra locs in slo-mo... because they deserve the attention" - @t_hugg_4life
It's settled, we're nailing how to be Xtra! While playing it safe has its place, making up our own rules, living boldly, and celebrating ourselves as we deserve, is far more liberating. Sorry, not sorry.
