Good Hair Gone Bad??

This is a societal phenomenon which speaks volumes about how we view what is an accepatable standard of beauty. Many people of all walks of life and cultural identities view straighter and/or blonde/lighter colored hair as "Good Hair". This notion exists in the minds of some people all over the globe. I, along with many others who allow our own luxurious thick hair to be, (and wear it like the crown that it is) have been frowned upon for rocking it proudly. I have been told that I looked better with straight hair or , "Wow, it takes courage to wear your hair like that (in its natural state?????)". Wearing your hair the exact way it was intended to be worn, and they way it grows out of your head has become somewhat of a novelty for some of us. Some folks think naturally kinky or course hair is kind of interesting. While others look on in great admiration. Check out actor/comedian extrodinaire Chris Rock's Documentary on the topic, expected out in theatres this October.



Amazing but true. This Good Hair/Bad Hair ideal has existed for many years and stems from a history of teaching lies that have spread around the world. Unfortunately, the saga continues. I, along with many other beauties will continue to inspire, create, lock, braid, twist, cornrow, design and wear our hair naturally even when the world sometimes does not approve. Why wouldn't we? YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL TO ME.
RECOGNIZE ART AND BEAUTY. IT IS ABUNDANT AND ALL AROUND US }{
