If I had that hair, I would certainly be happy with it. Beautiful hair there!

Much prettier than a wig. Love it!

And with that beautiful face any hairstyle would be acceptable!

Beautiful hair!!!

Beautiful 💜

It is!!! 🧐 The Crown Act!!

It is illegal in USA 🇺🇸!! It's called the crown act which prevents discrimination. Progress is being made 💜

Hai discrimination is not REAL. Its in the mind of the person.

A hate crime!

@@WaddlesTravelsTheWorldUnfortunately, The Crown act, has not been activated in all of the United States.. more work needs to be done! And considering it only went into effect in 2019.. 😂😂

Oooooh! I’m using that from now on- Black Hair is Architectural! Thank you!!

I’m not black and have this hair but yet it’s beautiful

Absolutely! My almost straight long hair can't and won't hold a curl even if my life depended on it! Hair like this can be worn in so many ways, and while I wouldn't have the patience to style it every single day, I am so envious of it!! Love the "black hair is archetectural" line! You should make that an inspo quote on insta/Pinterest/tiktok, heck, you should make it an inspo post EVERYWHERE!!!!❤❤❤

Can you make 1 for plain boring long, mostly, straight white hair too? Lol🤭

I just don’t understand, Why are you doing your hair is racist? Don’t care what your hair type is. Hair does untamed and not styled is just sloppy. If you’re going to a function, you should style your hair. I don’t know anyone have any recent doesn’t do anything to the Hair for an event. Is it blk people make everything about race? Why is doing your hair a bad thing?

❤️

Neither do I. Probably because I see beauty beyond any stupid stereotypes and prejudice created by purpose to divide people. Im always surprised, anytime I hear something like the comment given at work about the hair. The hair, skin, weight, or any other thing that makes us US should be er be pointed out in negative way and it tells more about the commenter than somebody that receives this. The best way for all of us, as we all get it sometimes is to say or just think facing it to the “sender” “Thank you but I dont receive it, take it with you”

I really love this comment ❤😊

@@diamondcascadeblackspring7260 ❤️

i think the point was that she had to stop hiding it under wigs for it to grow healthy and beautiful. i love when she said society made her assume her hair was too much to deal with before even finding out herself.

Facts 💯

ALL OF THIS 🎯

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL🌹🌹🌹 KEEP ROCKING YOU❤❤❤

It really does I like it both ways honestly

Love your hair

I think black women are genius at doing hair...any hair.They are absolute artists. It's beautiful to see.

❤❤❤❤❤

❤❤❤ Thank you!!

Whatever

Same! In the 80’s I permed my hair to make it big and curly!

Beautiful!!

Nah but like yalls straight hair is immaculate. Like it’s so lusciously amazing. 😂❤❤ slay your strands girl

I feel you, my sister has super curly hair and mine is pin straight! We always wished we could trade hair when we were younger!

BEAUTIFUL HAIR❤

NEVER GO BACK TO WIG❤

Yup and definitely not type 4!

100%. I’m 41 and never got around to loving myself and accepting who I am. I’m on that journey now and it’s so liberating!!!! At some point I tried please everyone around me. I hid myself and my true thoughts and feelings because I didn’t want to offend anyone. Then I realized I was just hiding from myself. No more! I’m taking the power back.

@@jessteam5648Amen!!!

You are so beautiful any which way you do your hair! ❤️‼️

GIRL THATS ALL BLALQ WOMEN DO IS TLC OUR HAIR REQUIRES THAT DUHHH NOW THAT CAUCASIAN HAIR IS SOMETHING TOTALLY NOT THE CASE

I grew up in those years, too, and I remember the revolution very fondly. My best friend in college wore her hair in a close natural and it looked so effortlessly elegant.

@@williamsstephens YAAASSSS!😁 Exciting times bubbling with all kinds of possibilities and potential (even despite the hardships and "growing pains") Absolutely breaks my heart every day to see where we're at now 🥺

Exactly!

I know! I would not go to the trouble of a wig when I had this. My hair is so thin I just bought what is called a 'topper' and man what a pain it is to wear.

👍🏾👍🏾

Wigs cause Baldhead

@@purpledancerbmw5279 have heard that before but not sure how true it is 😂

@@accoladeous my cousin licensed to do sister locs, plus, look at the senior sisters in church!

As a girl with coily hair I have to confess that I was jealous of straight hair. It looked so soft, I was wondering how it feels to just wake up the morning and comb your hair easily. But I learned how to manage my 4c hair and to love it. But I just wanted to tell you that straight hair is also gorgeous. We just have to accept our specificities and embrace our differences ❤

AMEN! 🖐️ SO jealous of hair that doesn't just fall all stringy looking & just takes the shape of my head 😮‍💨 Forget styling, it's so fine that looking at it causes it to break 🥺 No coloring, no bleach, no perm, no heat NOTHING 😳 unless I want to b bald 🤬 I even tried doing braids so I could let it out n the morning for waves, SO much breakage 😮‍💨

same :( i have a big forehead too so i basically just look bald and ugly without a ton of hair powder, styling and hairspray

I have curly-wavy hair and always tried to naturally straighten it.

Ahh Jealousy, the main reason we even have to have this conversation decade after decade 😢

It's not that deep

@@Sg4809 So? I love it, thats what matter to me so I said it. Its not that deep either.

Oddly, I've never experienced what she's describing, and km also black. To some degree, I think people just assume their hair will not be acceptable, and then treat it in order to fit into the assumption they came up with. Her boss asked what happened to her hair because it was different from what she normally does. But what's wrong with asking that question? Why must her first assumption be that he or she is being disrespectful (implied by the word "audacity")? This is the part I don't understand, personally. She should just do her hair however she wants to. Most people don't actually care and haven't cared for years at this point. Her hair is beautiful, and it would have been nice to see this post without the insinuation that she's been pressured to treat her hair purely for the benefit of others who don't have the same hair type. She should just be okay knowing that she may have imagined the pressure, and just post videos being happy with how she does her hair. Not everything has to be a race issue that points accusing fingers at other people. I mean, isn't it tiring?

​@@JoyLupiyacarmineas a black woman, I second this comment

@@JoyLupiyacarmine but almost everything is a race issue, she wouldnt feel this way if it wasnt

@@B00gie- My point is exactly the opposite. Not everything is a race issue. And people can feel things that aren't happening. It's called misinterpretation. Imagine always assuming someone who is a different race from you is ALWAYS disrespecting you when they ask about some feature you possess that they don't. That's not normal. And if you think like that, I feel bad for you, because I know it's tiring. You end up seeing enemies all over the place, when it's all in your head. Are there racist in the world? Of course there are. But they exist in every race, and it's those people who make a huge deal out of skin colour that are the most racist. Give it some thought. Not everything is a race issue. Harmony is actually possible if we look past race.

​@JoyLupiyacarmine what you describe is an unfortunate effect of racial discrimination & living in a racialized society. And as someone who knows exactly how she feels, it is absolutely exhausting.

Thank God, I'm African. The sort of mental hair Gymnastics some Black American women display. You wore wigs then get offended when people ask u you get a different hair style. Aka Your natural hair. Your hair is curly pretty black girl hair.

I was about to write the same thing, don't let anything or no one damp ur confidence from rocking ur natural hair , be proud, my sister.

but the dark indians still get heat for a colour hue they can't change.. it's the evil people that should change because imagine if we hated them for lack of melanin or having dead hair.. seriously

💯% ABSOLUTELY👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

You look very pretty with your natural hair. I would be very proud with that beautiful curls. Don't care about society. You look gorgeous. 👍🏻🙏🏼

I feel like she is overthinking the whole “what happened to your hair” like isn’t it like a thing you say when like something changes and they have seen her with her straight hair and now it curly, wouldn’t people be like what happened (curious/Care)😂

@@abigailmedina3214 no she's not overthinking, people need to watch what they say and how they say it. "What happened to your hair" to me gives a negative connotation... So we said what we said

@@rudiiboiispook the way SHE said it not the person who said it. The person who said it originally could have said it in a curious way and she just took it in the wrong way thus overthinking it

okay i agree. even tho im white i agree with you. i love seeing black women or just women in general who have really tight curls wear that and rock it! curls are beautiful to me! i love them so much!

@@abigailmedina3214so do you have a hair type that has been hated over years , are you black , are you a black women ? What they said was disrespectful if you can’t understand that it was micro aggressive mind yours and move along God bless

It's weird to me too, girl, and I'm black. When I was growing up, a weave or wig-wearing woman was rare in my community. Almost unheard of.

Pitch the wigs, the style you just did looks beautiful on you

I always thought different hair textures were beautiful, as long as it's healthy. I associate it with personality and self expression.

Even white people in the 70s were trying to rock an afro lol

Thxu for affirm 4c hair!!!

Sorry that you had to experience that😮

The weakest link indeed

Poor guy, mental brainwashing by society, that’s a shame 🙁

He probably was rejected by Bw his whole life and it made him bitter 😂 kudos to you for being the bigger person!

​@@elysiyah3364they're very self hating. Doesn't have to do with rejection, they hate their own blkness

Unfortunately, much of it comes from other black women. I can't tell you how many times I heard black women call other black women "nappy-headed" to insult them when I was in the Army. A good friend wore her natural hair in an afro from the time I met her. One evening, I told her how pretty it was. She explained to me how much easier it was and how freeing it was to be able to get her hair wet in the rain or while swimming. It made me feel good for her that she was able to live more carefree and save hours of time to do other things she wanted to do. (I am totally hair lazy).

​@@sashalynn5256 that reminds me of internalized misogyny. Just because that is what I have experience with. So I wonder what kind of put down bs this came from? Misery loves company I guess.. I was always put down by the mean girls, and the mean girl teachers.

​@sashalynn5256 I disagree! As a natural BW, I've never had another BW walk up to me and put my hair down. I'm sure it can happen, but for most natural BW they say it's BM or WW who put their hair down. That's also been my experience, mainly BM putting my hair down. I usually hear BW motivating other BW.

Because you are ignorant and don’t realize racism and discrimination minorities go through.

@@MsVakongSame. I’ve never heard other black women do this. White women have mostly been the antagonists in destruction of black womens esteem.

I agree with you!

The comment she relays from her boss doesn't make it clear if it was criticism or curiosity. Wear a wig with straight hair, then suddenly come in with natural curls... It is noticeable. Commenting doesn't automatically mean criticism. News flash... Caucasian women who suddenly have a significant change in hairstyle get the SAME question. Anyone changing their appearance will get questions or comments.

Yep, turning up with say a pixie cut when you have only had really long hair or turning from brown to bleach blonde would get a response from many people of what happened to your hair, why did you do that! No matter what your ethnicity is.

@@dagneytaggart7707 yes, i definitely agree with that too. it could’ve been a completely innocent question and that’s totally fine

​​@@dagneytaggart7707 Not true! When I see a change in a caucasian's hair change, I either compliment vocally or keep pushing. It's her choice not mine. Same for any woman. Sis I love your hair. Now you know your Boss shouldnt be supervising others outside of his race😮

Yes, you go girl! You wore your natural hair to a black tie event? Good for you! Your hair is beautiful!!

Major deal! Ultimate self love and acceptance

Lady Queen, you and your hair, very beautiful no wig ever made, can compare your crown.

Exactly ! I don’t think her boss was really saying anything bad about her hair, just asked what happened

Your hair is gorgeous as is but the texturism is real. So instead of hiding your natural hair under weaves, wigs and silk presses, its hidden under gels, cremes, lotions and pomades.

How is it hidden under gel, when it’s your hair texture defined by the gel?

​@@Bklyn112what!!! If thats the case women of other races are hiding too. I swear some people must live under a rock. 😂😂😂😂

@@lekaylaharbor6089 Your natural, texture is how your hair looks when it's washed and drys without product. Using gels, pomades, lotions and other products to get a curl that wouldn't happen otherwise isn't your natural curl pattern.

@@Tamfel_85 They probably are but we're talking about Black people here. Who are the people living under a rock?

I don’t want to sound as if I’m judging the two people. However God created us natural for his purpose and I’m guessing that it depends on the people that you went to Church with. I’m black been going to a black Church for many years, I’ve went from Afro to Relaxers to Curly Hair and now I’m back to my Natural Hair and been for some years now. My Pastor, First Lady or anyone in the Church has ever spoken to me about or concerning my hair. God created us natural for his reasons ❤

Absolutely gorgeous I’m jealous

Please tell me you’re going to another church now, where you are accepted for who you are and not what you look like. The people of this church you speak of need to be on their knees asking for forgiveness for turning you away from singing and praising our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope you know that your hair doesn’t define you, only what’s inside of your heart. Sending you love ❤️

The reason I don't go to a "church" those ppl seem to be the most judgemental, & mentally unbalanced TO ME. I'm glad yall "forgave " each other.

​@@tammejohnson6885 yeah tat was mean asf

❤

You don’t get to tell black people what to do with our hair. Mind ur business karen

@Dee.Ola_ You're very welcome luv 🫶🏿👑💐

gorgeous

I love this, can you give some tips on how you did it? that is something I also want to start doing is embracing my 4c hair

​@@itssLaury hi Laury, I went natural after wearing a perm about 40 years. You have to give up putting heat on your hair. (Flat iron, press n curl, blow dryers). It is ok to sit under a hooded dryer. Deep condition your hair every time you wash. Protect your hair from rubbing against harsh fabric clothing. Keep your split ends clipped regularly, as needed. Hair will love you back!

you kidding, right !

​@@2010redshiftyou must be kidding troll!!, her hair is full, strong , versatile, and if she wants can have her hair bone straight.. let's no talk about the shrinkage.. her hair is probably down her back if straightened...stop with your hating azz comments..

You would be hard pressed to not notice that different races have different hair textures as an adult in the western world. It’s like feigning ignorance of different skin tones. It’s not hateful but still a thoughtless, entitled and ignorant question that assumes a lot and insinuates otherness.

Yeah, I don’t think her last boss meant it in a bad way when they asked “what happened to your hair”. I think they were just genuinely curious as to why their hair changed.

I am just puzzled by the seemingly magical change. I don't ask however cause I don't want to force them to inform me if it's a wig. I did ask once and it was a wig and I loved that and I still remember that wig and it's inspired me cause one day I might get my dreamcut which is a straight Karenlike bob w bangs. Seeing as I have curls and a heart shaped hairline I can't have it naturally. I think wigs need to be more mainstream tbh ❤

I think some people want to make things into something that it isn't. If you do one thing for so long and all of a sudden change it, it doesn't mean that someone has bad intentions in noticing. It's so annoying and pits nonblack people as automatically ignorant or bad.

​@@junesimonebut asking "what happened to your hair" kind of implied something bad must have happened. You could maybe say, "did you do something new to your hair?" which is much more neutral and can give you insight as to what kind of techniques or procedures that black women go through to do their hair

She's not letting ppl shame her... she's experiencing the shame of having natural hair already woven into the american culture of being Black and wearing your natural hair.
