    Not only are these women all natural. There's so many different shades of black beauties here!!! That's one of the reasons why I still love this show.

      when they got a new show runner in season 2, she apparently made all the girls take their weaves out. you'll notice in season one, some of them had weaves and stuff. but in season 2 there were a lot less weaves and more natural hairstyles.

      Actually Bill Cosby asked her to do it!
      The first episode wasn't very good. So Cosby wanted it to reflect and be more. Debbie Allen took over and Bill Cosby bowed out, it was her baby and he knew he didn't have to worry!

    Do tell we’re fly Do tell we’re fine, now sliiiiiiiiiiiiiide, Hip Hop
    Snobby girls from Libby Hall, next to us you are flowers on the wall
    Ask the fellas who stand in line outside our door, cause they say that we are fine
    We don’t wear hair weaves we know how to dress, we’re smart, clean and cool, hot and fresh
    Hit It, Now Pump It, Do The Butt
    Do tell we’re fly Do tell we’re fine, watch us blow your mind

But are we not gonna talk about Jaleesa talents dancing in this sequence I mean the girl was super talented in the show and what gets me about the dance is her swagger and the in your face attitude she gave those girls in the end.
