What exactly did he mean when he said, “Natural hair isn’t for - TopicsExpress



          

What exactly did he mean when he said, “Natural hair isn’t for everyone?” Let’s really break down and analyze this statement. First of all, “natural” hair is essentially the hair texture that you were given by God and born with. So to make a statement suggesting that embracing the hair texture that you were born with is not “for you” leaves a lot to be questioned. Just like with other hairstyles and trends, every woman has to find styles and products that work best for her personal appearance, and hair is no different. But natural hair is just that: the hair you grow without any product, treatments, or touchups. And while certain styles may look better on others, it seems out of line to suggest that a Black woman’s decision to rock her own hair could be determined by anyone other than herself. Before I decided to lock my hair, I wore weaves, extensions, and other hairstyles. And while I’ve been natural for four years now, I believe we, as Black women, look beautiful in almost every style we choose to wear. But I can’t pretend that I don’t have a problem with people (especially Black people) supporting a theory that we shouldn’t embrace our God-given appearance.
