header h1 {
color: white;
}

36,441 PointsWhat header? I pasted your code into Workspaces and everything shows up. Except for "Em Barber" at the top, which is still there, but the font color is the same as its background, so it's in stealth mode. Find the spot where you manipulated the font color of your h1 in the header.
