[edit] Cast
The show stars Ordena Stephens as Novelette "Letty" Campbell, the Caribbean-Canadian owner of a hair salon in Toronto. Trey Anthony, the writer of the original play on which the series was based, also stars as Letty's sister Joy.
The cast also includes Ngozi Paul, Richard Fagon, Natalie Johnson and Conroy Stewart.
[edit] Ratings
Although the show was not a mainstream hit in national television ratings in its first season, it was a much bigger hit in Canada's largest and most multicultural television markets. CBC Television's Sophie was the year's highest-rated new Canadian sitcom based on national ratings, although in the markets where Da Kink in My Hair performed most strongly, it attracted higher ratings than Sophie.
Global announced on March 20, 2008 that the show would be renewed for a second season.[1]
