      Elle D did you watch the episode? Her mother said she had to learn to love her hair and since she raised her kids mostly on the commune, they didn’t have to conform to society and get their hair straightened. The kids didn’t even know there were hair salons let alone places to straighten hair. It wasn’t apart of their culture until they went into mainstream society.

    I'm mixed with a black mom and my mom never taught me how to do my hair. She wears weaves and I've only seen her natural hair probably like a dozen times in my life, and I'm in my 20s. I had to learn hair care on my own and from a young age I was made fun of for my hair being too "poofy" by white kids and a few mixed boys. I didn't know how to make my curls definied or or less frizzy until I did that research myself. My mom just used water on my hair and would put it in a ponytail or bun until I was in like 6th grade then I got tired of my natural hair and would straighten it every. Single. Day. This went on until I was about 18 and I FINALLY embraced my natural hair, found good products for it, and now i rarely straighten my hair. Maybe once or twice a year for special occasion. Not all black mother's know about haircare, and no I'm not blaming her but people saying this scene isn't realistic are just generalizing that all black women are knowledgeable about haircare.

I did go to a predominantly white school and because my hair a lways looked a mess people constantly wanted to touch it or remind me how bad I looked especially my mom even till this day, I just got in the habit of getting wash and sets every week when I asked my mom for help she would just say "you're a girl, you don't know how" I'm currently in school for nails but thinking about going for cosmetology after, also I'm in my 20s still learning, this also a reason why I never want a girl only sons.

    Are they seriously presenting this as a cultural norm or joking? I’ve been black my entire life and have never wrapped or seen anyone wrap her hair for gym class. Who are the people writing this stuff?. I don’t watch any of the “ish” shows.
    Update: I was in elementary school in the 80s and can STILL say I have never seen anyone wrap their hair up in PE class. TBH I kind of doubt my PE instructors would have allowed us to wear this because it could become a safety hazard if it comes off on the court during a game and someone slips on it. No I’ve never seen a basketball, volleyball, softball, flag football or whatever game with a bunch of girls with their hair wrapped in scarves. Even if some girls were doing it in other places this show acts like the girl was STUPID for not wrapping her hair when based on the comments here it’s clear not all black girls did this. We put our hair in a bun/ponytail.

This “problem” for you g bow was overemphasized. The hair texture could have caused her issues but not like this. Also, even with the boy. Maybe his hair could have been given a style update but the texture being made a problem is weird. “Good hair” aka looser curls has always be a preference and helped in terms of socializing, especially during the 80’s lol idk this is just weird to me

      Tell me about it. I only straighten my hair out to make it easier on my stylist when I get a haircut. And whenever I want to have long hair. My hair goes 2 inches past my shoulders when straight but when it's curly it only goes down to my chin. My hair looks beautiful because it's long but the entire time my hair is straight I'm miserable because I have to keep obsessing over it to get it to look good. Constantly brushing it every 5 minutes and going back over it 3 times with the straightener before I leave the house. If I sweat even just a little bit, even with hairspray it's all ruined, one drop of rain or even a little bit of humidity in the air and it's all ruined. It's just more stress than it's worth.

    I wish people would realize that this takes place in the 80's. Ya'll are trying to apply 2019/2020 standards to mid 80's. We didn't have Google or RUclips to look things up. Keep that in mind while you "why didn't she know?" everything.
    This was literally my middle school experience and I'm black. My parents were pro-black so my hair was either cornrowed or in an afro/afro puffs. My mother did my hair in beautiful Fulani braids and the other black kids and white kids literally made fun of me and called me Kunta Kente. That was in 1987, before Instagram made it hot to have Fulani braids. Before Instagram existed. If you didn't grow up in the 80's things in this show might seem foreign to you.
    Kids were definitely meaner in the 80's/90's. Schools didn't have zero tolerance bullying rules until those kids shot up Columbine High School. It was a different time.

      By middle school there were maybe 25-30 POC students. Unfortunately some were so eurocentric minded that, yes, even being black themselves, still made fun of Afrocentric things.

      I knew girls who walked around school ALL DAY with a headscarf on. One girl I remember doing it because she didn’t want to mess up her hair, but why keep the scarf on when you got it done to show it off?! I guess she wanted it nice for after school situations, but people definitely did this at my school.

      Is it a trope though? 🤔 I knew a lot of black American kids like this growing up. Being African from Africa myself, I just saw it as a cultural thing- people acting a particular way because of how they grew up.
      Not all black girls fit the bill, but there is a sassiness to African American female culture. It is NOT lesser than. It's just acceptable within the culture.
      We have the same here. Some people groups culturally carry themselves a particular way. It's not negative, it just is. It's not universal, but it is common.

      This actually fits better than the tone of the white girl. A trope sometime fits for a reason. Many support the sassyness I seen it. But it was not a big deal because it's common. Trope is not racist but this show makes everyone sound bad.
      I have never disliked this bias show. There was always cool people & sucky people. You adapt to the person's character. This show reminds me of my sister & the sad way of looking at the slight contractdiction but this show just points out bad. I remember being asked all time but it's almost on same stress level as 'what's your name?' Many mixed kids that were popular as they were just said whatever ima just do me.

      Caramel Brown it will produce more sweat but dries flat. Honestly its better to get a sweat headband for the edges and put your hair in a high pony till it dries imo for gym. But your hair will naturally revert and wrapping does help it keep straight. Most ppl wrap before bed or before a shower.

It is a struggle when all your life you are told your hair looks awful or not well combed due to frizz. Especially when your mothers doesn’t have the same hair type as you do. It took me almost 29 years to accept my natural hair and learn how to properly care for it.

      @Elle D Honestly I think that's a step in the wrong direction. You should want to be someone's friend bc they're nice and treat you right. I don't have children, but I talk to kids about things like this so they don't get accustomed to reading off the white supremacy script and those bs ideas become normal to them. Not on my watch!

      I am Black and am glad I had sons. I keep my hair natural and no longer than 3 inches. I don't wear makeup and don't own a skirt or heels. If I had had a girl, that doesn't mean I would have learned to be more feminine. My way is quick and easy. Husband has stopped asking me to wear a dress.
      Not all Black women are interested in hair like that.
