So they're upset when people call us ugly and now they're upset because people say we're beautiful. Tatiana thank you for making sense in a nonsensical world.
Telling someone they must do something with their hair rather than just saying black women look good with their natural hair is not the same. Coily hair is hard to take care of and straight hair is hard to maintain due to weather.
Thanks for the vid Tatiana. I really don't understand these ladies way of thinking : so when a man in a Scandinavian country flirts with a Black woman it's "fetishism"... but when a Black man talks down on a Black woman to uplift a N-BW it's a "preference" 🤔 Make it make sense.
Other groups of men/people love black features genuinely. I have a white resident at the nursing home I work at who tells me she loved my locs and my gold hoops every chance she gets. And don’t let me get a style…. LAWD HAMMERCY. When it was summer and my skin got darker due to me laying out in the sun (because I love a good tan), I got soooo many compliments on my shin tone. Black is beautiful. We say it but honestly, we don’t live it the way we should.
I've said this before and I stand on it! Black women are our most beautiful, in our natural hair, locs, braids, silk press, fros etc. We are unique and should not be ashamed to embrace that. Thank you for your video, pretty lady.
I had my locs for about 3 years now. Last week I ordered a straight wig for a costume. I looked crazy 😮 my natural hair looked so much better and fit my features perfectly
I've been to Japan and they pretty much ignore foreigners. In other asian countries you'll get stares and maybe even people taking pics. Not with Japanese culture tho.
I'm a Brazilian woman and here Most women have curly and afro hair. More than 50% of Brazilians are African descent. The Brazilian media tries to sell Brazil as a white country, but this is a lie. Indeed, In Brazil, women with curly and afro hair are taught to straighten their hair.
Tatiana!! You are a GEM! Thank you for making this video! Black beauty is absolutely celebrated and black women truly need to accept and see their beauty for what it is.
Also to advocate for shorter natural hair in regards to men. I received more attention from men when I cut my natural short and dyed it a chestnut brown. I can tell that it makes some and I do mean some, bw uncomfortable. Like some of the girls don't know how to digest me 😂
@@Ferrist1 I noticed that 2 when my natural hair was short!! They just were confused why I didn’t have box braids in lol! But I love short natural hair 💕
yes, nobody rocks a short cut like black women! But that's the thing, it has to be intentional and styled. Just because you are natural doesn't mean you should be out here looking like you just big chopped with the kitchen scissors lol.
What she didn't know is that Japanese businesses have a consumer base of black women. Therefore they want to advertise to them and acknowledge their uniqueness
So I want to say since watching your channel I started wearing my hair in wash and gos and just not even manipulating the texture at all. I get way more compliments and my social media posts with straight hair are ok but my natural textures bring out the youth and people with vibrant energy! Just something I noticed. Also anyone reading this book her for style because my wardrobe next year is about to look 🔥
I hear what you're saying and I agree, BUT I also think I see the perspective of the model and others getting offended like, "Damn, so an AFRO is the ONLY Black hairstyle you know?" So I get that angle for sure. It's pretty pessimistic to think that the Japanese wanting to are seeing our Afros as offensive and racist, so that's why I ultimately agree with you.

This is so true. I don't do afros often, but I braid and bead my natural hair and people always absolutely love the colours. Natural beauty always wins ❤😊 edit: omg, I love flowerovlove too ❤❤❤
I'm Black American, but I'm very in astrology, and creative fashion, so I look to Black Femme Futurism fashion, it's a fashion subcategory under Afrofuturism.
say it again for the people in the back!!! purchased hair is a commitment of time and money that you can free yourself from...divorce hair hats and marry the freedom of sporting your natural God given hair texture!
You and other creator encouraged me to wear my natural hair to my corporate job, and I’m not bullshitting, I’ve never had these many compliments in my life. I feel so silly for being insecure in what has now made me feel most beautiful. You’re doing amazing work and changing lives ❤
Nah, I have to disagree with the model. Strongly in fact. This is *modeling.* Modeling jobs are not Burger King. You don’t run this. Your opinion is not warranted. *The director is the artist,* and he/she is going for a very specific look, like when painting a painting. Were the models that weren’t offered the job, ugly? No. They just don’t fit the look for that artist. She was chosen for a very specific look, *which is very complimentary for a model, to have a look that is ‘in high demand’-this is how supermodels are made in the industry.* Truth be told, she just sounds like she doesn’t understand the industry very well, which can hurt her future jobs, especially when you blasted this on social media. Now you’re at the mercy of whichever artist is searching for a wigged up, extensions sporting black model-and you better hope there’s an actual demand for that. 👀 You don’t tell people how to handle their artwork. Your choice is to accept the job or move along. Thank you. Have a nice day. Something was definitely weird about her point, but it wasn’t the desire to see her natural hair. It’s weird that she’s in this particular business and displayed something that could really hurt her for the whole world to see. Very strange indeed…
They also asked for the easiest style we can do. Take the braids down, wash it and put it in like 4 twists overnight with some oil and/or leave in and pick it out the next day.
I love my Afro sm but yeah when I’m out I seem to get compliments from everyone but my own ppl. I don’t really mind what ppl do with their hair tbr but my little opinion is some bw be missing out on styling their hair. We’re the only race that calls it natural hair or a journey.
Regarding the model in Japan. I think her point was stereotyping. That this is the only hairstyle that gets jobs. Not braids not twists not bantu knots or any other style. I think her point is that they only want to see you one way. Similar to how here in America while black women are great at nurturing, nanny and maid are not the only jobs that we can do. This woman clearly embraces her natural hair but that doesn't mean she should be put in a box. That's also racism. This is coming from a frequent afro wearer who has been natural only for more than 15 years and has never worn a wig.
Yeah… it’s like if Asian’s could only appear in media with school girl pigtails lmfao. Or that geisha updo… perfectly good styles and aesthetically pleasing but - ONLY?? It’d get frustrating lmao
Listen to the context of what the woman in the first video said. She didn’t say she didn’t like her natural hair. She’s saying that it is only appreciated in a certain context - the stereotypes and all (at least in the modeling industry) in Japan. We should be proud of our natural hair. She wasn’t discrediting that fact. That’s just all I wanted to say. We can be proud of our hair while also calling out the stereotypes of associating them with disco balls and all that.
Why is the mans behavior that weird to them? Like yeah he's all up in her space, but considering that they're clearly in some sort of club we can all assume it's loud hence him having to get uncomfortably close and speak into her ear so she can hear him 🙄 some people just want to be bothered by any and everything
i truly know if the second video of the woman was a black woman with lighter complexion, the comments would be drastically different too. very weird comments
Wearing my hair curly, tangles so bad I have to wear it more straight to prevent damage and retain length, I want to figure out how to wear it in braid out styles and Afros without it becoming damaged.
This is implying that type 4 hair is less attractive and that pretty women can only pull off natural hair because their looks make up for it. You may think that your comment only reflects on your own looks but ultimately it reveals that you think other hair textures are inherently better.
We are literally the only people on this planet with this type of hair making us extremely unique
So they're upset when people call us ugly and now they're upset because people say we're beautiful. Tatiana thank you for making sense in a nonsensical world.

Exactly it's giving self hate
this
Well black women are not a monolith. Some are upset when ppl call black women ugly and some are upset when ppl call black some attractive.
They do the same when another race likes us. They’re quick to say “fetishized” like damn 😭 only BM can think we’re pretty?
Saying that it's "weird" for others to find our natural beauty beautiful is ridiculous.
The phrase wig blindness makes me LMAO😂😂😂😂😂
@@leah8112 lmfao me 2 😭

“It is to your advantage to wear your natural hair.” 👏👏👏 Yes, in SO many ways, especially spiritually and psychologically. 💕💙💜
This just made me feel more comfortable going to Japan. I was worried about wearing my natural hair but now I know I will probably just be celebrated!
Would you be opened to give us an update on the people's reaction?
Celebrate yourself and you will be celebrated everywhere you go! 😊
Girl I went to tokyo and tateyama back in February don't worry about it, and they even complimented me
I wore my natural hair in Japan-no one gave a damn, lol.

Can you please do a video of your hair routine I would love to see how you get it to look like that😊
I agree with everything that you said. Tfs.
I clicked because I saw Sonia Barbie Tucker 😍
The whole “fetishization” conversation has always been stupid to me
PREACH!!! Wonderful video!

I’m buying a Afro wig I just started my locs I like them but sometimes I miss my fro

Love your videos tell the truth

exacly i feel like black woman cant even see someone liking us because we dont like ourselves
Yes, but an afro hairstyle is not the only hairstyle black women can pull off. There are so many hairstyles we can do 😊❤
Wearing weave is barbaric. I can’t understand how women have gaslit themselves into thinking it’s a “protective style”
It isn’t. Stop. Get some help.
Wearing weave is barbaric??? That’s extreme 🤨🤨
@ it’s not extreme. You’re wearing someone else’s _DNA_
I personally dont like the water colored wigs. I prefer cutting off, twa, tapered cuts or afro. I also braid my own hair. Straighten it to trim.
Love you ❤
❤❤❤
i truly know if the second video of the woman was a black woman with lighter complexion, the comments would be drastically different too. very weird comments

I love my natural hair but I got a mean forehead. I do more short curly wigs
Sorry but youre beautiful and you showed a bunch of model women. Some of us arent as fortunate so we do what we can lol
If you wear you’re natural hair or natural looking hair you’ll enhance your look!!
This is implying that type 4 hair is less attractive and that pretty women can only pull off natural hair because their looks make up for it. You may think that your comment only reflects on your own looks but ultimately it reveals that you think other hair textures are inherently better.
@moongem4489 cool
Trust her! U will look younger and more royal...esp when skincare and style is intentionally done. don't let that 1 hater in ur life take ur crown
