Do whatever pleases you, weave or not because just like the good lord giveth, he can take it away anytime. heard of cancer? how about leukemia? It still gets me when someone with a bad weave judges someone with short hair then have the odesity to say its their real hair. I have long natural hair, so I don’t appreciate getting lied to about hair. . because I know the difference, hell half of people in hollywood wear weaves and perms. trust me….I know.

Who cares about hair! That’s the problem with us today We should be free to do anything we choose to our hair, honestly, whatever it is that makes us comfortable! If you want a perm, hell, perm it… if you want a weave, get one, just get a good one.

All this started back in slavery days. Google willie lynch letter and you will see what I’m talking about.

yeah it’s true.. black women should be pround of who they are..hair, skin or whatever. But we can’t help the image that is being put out there for us black women. All the rappers,singers, and some celebs are always singing and rapping about “model lookin girls with the small waist and the long hair, lite eyes” and all that bullshit. I love my skin, my hair..HELL all of me. But you can’t blame everything on the black woman. Society has messed us up. I love my weaves, braids and ponytails too. I am a cosmetologist, so it’s my job to make my clients look as beautiful as possible. We also have to understand that yes we are from african decent, but we are from here. AMERICA!! We are trend setters. ..

Tyra Banks is the wrong person to talk on that subject,She wear a weave and chemically straighten hair everyday on her show,wearing cornrows for one day ain’t going to cut it. I appreciate the effort but….no

We as BLACK PEOPLE have been scarred forever by slavery,meaning we or should I say a good majority still think WHITE IS RIGHT and more beautiful.As black male that has by other BLACK PEOPLE been called “slave black”,(I GOT STRONG AFRICAN FEATURES)By other black people. some among us have messed up minds, we hate anything that remotely remind us of our AFRICAN HERITAGE.We should embrace all aspects of our afro-centric,styles of hair and skin color(whether it be black-blue to red brown ,tight curly hair(nappy)as some would say and all other styles that we have.

i think it’s best for black women to stay natural because of the negative effects of perms. they are dangerous chemicals!! so many black women don’t realize how versatile our hair when it’s natural!! you can twist it, braid it, lock it, hot iron it! EVERY day i wear my natural hair differently!! and it takes LESS time to style than a perm would! the myth that natural black hair doesn’t grow is just that…a myth!! my hair is below my shoulders. when it’s not combed it’s kinky and cute, when it’s combed out and twisted it’s wavy and cute too!! i live in japan and women here are ENVIOUS of our versatile hair! so black women get over your insecurities and start growing out your perms. you have a gorgeous head of real hair!!

I’m with the general consensus, it shouldn’t matter. And there are some ladies who don’t do it to be white they do as a matter of personal preference. I’ve seen beautiful styles in all types of hair textures braided, curly, straight, etc. This matter did not need to be investigated
Do what you feel. If you like curly go curly and maintain it. If you like straight relax and maintain. Do what you like

nappy iz sexy. straight hair belongs on whites and asians, not sistas. black women gotta stop tryna look white. itz not cute or pretty, jus dumb. now if dey born wit “good” hair then datz cool cuz datz who dey iz az a person. no matter da hair type, women shud b happy wit wut dey got. ya dont c white chics go around wearin wigs ta pretend dey got naps, cuz deyd look stupid az hell. well so do sistas when dey act fake wit dem weaves an contacts. if god wanted black women ta hav blond or brunette or red hair an blue or green eyez dey wuda been born dat way. sistaz who born dat way dont go around wearin brown contacts an black weaves. at least all of em anyway. i dont got a problem wit mixed gurlz but personally i prefer dark chocolate.

I dont care how a woman wears her hair as long as she has the confidence and swag to pull the look off. Hair is nothing but clusters of dead cells anyway, it does not make the person underneath it. I do find myself more attracted to black women who wear their hair in its natural curly state verses women who like to relax or straighten their hair. I believe that God knew what he was doing when he created all of us and the texture of hair each of us was born with is what looks best on us.

IT SHOULDN’T MATTER!!! ALL typels of hair is beautiful in its own unique way, what makes it bad is when you don’t take care of it. I like Tyra, but some of these topics she picks to talk about are not helping people move forward from old negative views/stereotypes.

Theres no such thing as good or bad hair. With great maintenance your hair can be as good as you want it to be minus the perms and the chemicals.

Au Risque to sound ignorant,I have no clue what “good” hair is, I know what Afierce do is but “good” hair i don’ t know, I also wonder what kind of moronic Idiot judge people or themselves based on hair texture and i don’ t want to know, I wear my hair mostly natural in a wrap, or i wear braids,I don’t know about weaves but to each his/her own.

It is all about how you feel on the inside. You can’t let “the world” tell you that you are unworthy or ugly. My mom has the “white girl flow” and she catches the devil with styling and management. Every hair type has it advantages and disadvantages.

Man, I’m so tired about the good hair issue. It’s about as old as the “Wait for It” phrase. Society and the media, typecast us in too many negative issues. Problem is, they don’t see what we see on a daily basis. Regardless of hair, skin tone, or shape, black is beautiful all around.

Go to my profile to check out the Lynch Laws. She is perpetuating the divisive slave nature that was taught to our ancestors in 1712.

Who cares about hair texture? It’s more important issues going on in the world than this slave mentality mess.

It´s blatantly obvious that Tyra and/or some of her aides/reps have been on YouTube that watched former Sargeant Willie Pete videos in order to brew up some “new” ideas.
