    I am not black. But I remember seeing a video of a tall black woman with super chocolate silky shiny skin and her hair, she was rocking an afro, a big one too. I was so mesmerized by her. I was like “My Goodness that woman right there is immaculate.” ✨

    All black don't hate their natural hate. It amazing me that so many people are concerned about us. We try really hard to mind our own business, and I wish other people would do the same. Stop speaking for our race because no of us think the way you do about us. I have always loved my hair, have never been ashamed, or hated my hair. It's so versatile 😍 ❤

    No no. I grew up in Nigeria. When I choose to where my Afro hair without doing anything to I get judged. Especially if it is in it shrunken state. People expect me to get my hair done. Which discouraged me from embracing my hair more.
    You said a lot of things I agree with. I appreciate you giving insight towards the day to day struggles we face as black people.
    All the best.

    We have so much residue from childhood experience and comments about our hair. I’m a beautiful 63 and my mom used relaxer’s on my thick 4c hair starting at a very early age. I did the big chop during the pandemic and have struggled a bit with styles that make me feel and look my best. Self love for my natural hair and confidence is what I continue to practice on my daily journey. I feel so free in my natural hair, I feel so much lighter now that my wig has been removed. I work in corporate America and I’ve noticed a slight shift in things. More young people are entering the job market wearing their natural hair. When we have self love and confidence in ourselves we SHINE BRIGHTLY and others take notice. Continue holding your head high and walk in confidence knowing you are beautiful from head to toe. Enjoy your journey ❤ Blessings to you.

    Before the 2010s, I wore no weave/wigs.. mean the 80s,90s as well.. but since the 2010s it was not acceptable in corporate America where I live. I got locs two years ago and have 4c and I like them.. but still ppl still look at me differently. Esp blk ppl- it makes me uncomfortable in this world no matter where I go 😢
