Natural hair did get totally left out!!! I remember transitioning from my relaxed hair, and getting ready to watch this movie , hoping to learn something more about natural hair (I come from a white family) and I got nothing. I was SO mad (even though i enjoyed the movie a bit..) He could have cut out that stupid hair show to make room for info about natural hair :P
I'm natural and I think Chris did his homework enough to provide an entertaining film and highlight the extreme views of some women that desire weaves and straight hair. I wouldn't call it one sided, but I think he could have discussed more about natural hair as an alternative. Of course the movie would have been longer if he went into fros, twists, kinky twists, locs, sisterlocks etc in an effort to share the alternative.
I am mixed race and have quite fair skin, my hair is type 4. With the help of my husband he made me realise that I have to accept my hair as he thought it was natural and beautiful. He stopped me from straightening and relaxing it. He wanted me to be proud of who I am, my heritage. My father was mixed as well as my mom. I am now growing dreads and I LOVE it..natural is best
@ peaceandlove1982 First of all black people didn't start the race issue, white people did. Maybe instead of making bias claims like "black people need to grow the heck up", and placing all black people inot one category over what one person claims. Then the black community might improve without people like you bringing down your won people. Get your face out of white people asses.
@44jarlaw Find a sisterlock consultant in your area. You can got to the sisterlocks website and find one. Once you find one you can go to a consultation free of charge. You can also look at blogs @ blogspot.com and videos on youtube. They were a wealth of information for me before making my final decision. Hope that helped!
I think as a filmmaker he provided an unbiased view of the subject of how we perceive good/bad hair in our society.It is not a "natural hair is better" movie its a "what is causing us to do this to ourselves" movie. That is not what this movie is about and that is why I think Dr. Cornwell should absolutely create a film about natural hair and why we feel the way we do about our natural hair and the alternatives that we have for it.
The title "Good Hair" is a moniker and does not insinuate that chemically processed hair is good hair nor does it suggest that natural hair is bad hair or that women with natural hair are unhappy with their hair. The film does not state that one type is good or bad, it simply states that this is our perception of what is good/bad hair and this is the extent that women will go to to achieve this ideal
I find it surprising when white people like blythebrooks are always on black videos to say how they feel and think. You don't see blacks on white videos commenting. This issues is not for you it a black issue. You get praise for being a white person. Stop white your oversensitive bullshit. You people just like to say some fuck pertaining to issues that are not of your concern.
@serious7231 who gives a damn if the girl is white & commenting on black video. Black folk need to grow the heck up. We not the only one that has issue, how the heck do you know that she doesn't have family member that is black & she see the issue first hand. We need to get off the race crap & accept and educate everyone. Black, white, yellow it doesn't matter, we all face issue with curly hair and what is consider standard to some society..

IMO black women are ugly... not because of their hair or anything... its because nowdays they try to act like men.. trynna run shit like men.. trynna talk like a nigga... they have shity attitudes... to keep it real a man doesnt want to hear a womans opinion. Theses bithces need to learn that.... all this minister to farakahn shit is not sexy.
@manchiald I would argue that not just black women but any woman or man who has a negative character is ugly. People who don't work on themselves and strive to be better people are ugly. I am a black woman.
lets get to the ROOT of the issue....i am white...and i think black people are beautiful...it seems we all want what we can't have...how can we all love ourselves for who we are?
@blythebrooks girl i wish all people could think the way we do. i love my caucasian sistas and i love them for who they are and aren't and i love who i am and am not. I think thats what makes people so amazing and unique.
the problem is...people keep saying good hair is whatever makes you happy...but what is making people happy...is straight white hair..b/c black people were made to feel shame about their natural hair, and white people were viewed as having better hair....so now black people want socially accepted good hair...not all...but that is why chemically straightened hair is making black people happy..lets figure out how black people can feel happy about their natural hair and natural ways of styling it..
Thank you for inventing this natural hair care technique, Dr. Cornwell! It has already released thousands from fake/fried bondage, and is destined to emancipate millions more in the years to come.
I have loved my Sisterlocks from day 1 through day 3985 and counting. Their lush beauty, and the power of them is undeniable. Getting caught in fog or rain only makes them look even more dazzling. It is the only hair style that allows you to look great every day without fussing about or covering up.
Chris never said that this was going to be about natural hair. He did what he was supposed to do because natural hair is not considered good hair. The women in his life may not have natural hair...they more than likely have chemically altered hair. It's up to those of us with natural hair to do that.
Excellent! I can't wait for part 2! I could not agree more if you are going to tackle the topic of hair care in our community you can not leave out the natural hair care industry!
love the music at the beginning and really would like to be apart of the next vid, i am willing to come to cali if i have to , maybe help shoot and light it if i can! im so glad ur doing this dr c
My God this woman has hair to die for. She's my hair inspiration.
