Just want to let EVERYONE know that not all Black women put themselves through this foolishness. I'm 40 and the youngest in my family, and NONE of the women in my family have EVER- yes, NEVER, EVER- had a perm.
That woman is going to damage her daughters hair beyond repair. 1, she's only 3. And 2, she's relaxing it wrong. The only time you're suppose to apply the relaxer all over the hair is the FIRST time you're getting the hair relaxed. Taking it from natural to relaxed. After that you're only suppose to relax the new growth and that's it. She's over processing her daughters hair.
omg, like she is relaxing it wrong anyways, she is damaging that girls hair, like she is overprocessing when she should just be doing the new growth, smh so sad
I'm Pakistani and have thick, curly hair which gets frizzy when the climate is humid. Wouldn't lie, I DO prefer straightened hair and have owned a hair straightener for almost 5 years now. But being EXTREMELY lazy, I've only straightened them 6-7 times in all those years. Looking now to my friends who are frequent users of such methods, I see hair that is lifeless, split-ended, dry and a lot less in volume. So that's a win-win for me :D
i have genes of thick hair and its hard to deal with so i straighten it but i dont straighten it everyday anymore i learned to love my hair. and i dont wash it everyday not cuz im lazy but natural oils is good for the scalp
I don't understand how the hairdresser was talking about "we want our clients to love their natural hair" and she is standing there with straight hair... I really don't care how someone wears their hair, so long as they aren't hypocritical or mean to others. Personally I'm natural now, because I'm suck to death of relaxers and weaves etc etc and I'm only 20. I just think most black women are too scared to step away from the caucasian standard of beauty in general. It's a shame :(
The fuck are you rinsing her hair with a PERM in a sink and its getting in her eye! Not even close to anywhere ok She is still developing at 3!! She doesnt even start puberty till 8 years old extremely to early
I got my first relaxer at 17 years old and work them for about only 3 years. Then I stopped wearing relaxers and just straitened my hair with no chemicals. Now I wear my hair natural, I don't even straiten it anymore. I wear twist/braid outs and I love it.
So what's the point in all this? That people try to look white? Why do they need to overanalyse everything? I am white and I straighten my hair too, do I want to avoid looking like I have "black" hair? No, it just looks better this way.
The woman who perms her three year old has no idea what she is doing to her daughters hair. From when she was combing it with a SMALL tooth comb I knew she was clueless. A WIDE tooth comb would have been so much better on that little girl. Felt so bad for her
Relaxer going into your eyes can make you blind ....So when that small girl screamed "my eye!" ...OMG! she's only 3 years!She looked prettier before her mum relaxes her hair.
It's funny because most of the black women in the audience that are shaking their heads in disgust/disagreement, have perms, or straightened hair...........
Seriously, did that woman ever comb her daughter's hair? And you wouldn't have a 'kitchen' if your hair was natural. It just looks worse compared to the straight part. The front of my hair is thick, soft and wavy because I comb it and look after it. The relaxer ruins the front
I'm sick of the word 'nappy'. So negative. No one will ever call my hair nappy. Yes, it's an afro, but it is thick, natural and I can comb it - better than killing my hair with a relaxer or dragging it out with a weave. These people are twisted
ugh she's doing it wrong, tht kids hair is gonnna fall out! u never smooth the relaxer to the ends, that hair has already been relaxed! only the roots! when the relaxers is washed out it's going to cover the ends and then that's like relaxing it again ugh. ppl need to read the instructions!
the funny thing is that the thicker, the more curly, the more "NAPPY" the hair is the better it is biologically. The proteins that make up the "nappy" hair is the strongest and richest out of all the proteins. The only reason these people feel that straight hair is good is due to the years of degradation that the black have endured. We're free physically, but mentally, were still enslaved looking up 2 backra massa
I'd be kinda okay with her relaxing her daughter's hair if it wasn't so damn dangerous. Then her daughter could choose whether or not she wanted her hair relaxed or not when she was old enough to do her own hair.
Yet, that still wouldn't be enough since her mother is uneducated about caring for textured hair and does not care for textured hair. That would automatically affect how her daughter feels about her own hair.
Just why can't she let her daughter love herself for who she is, in and out?
i am asian, and I looooooove African hair. It's so beautiful. I am glad that Tyra is doing this show b/c I had no idea it was so much trouble and so controversial. I have to deal with my single eyelids and flat face.
@hbanana7 Yes our hair is that much work and I wear it natural , fluffy and long. It takes forever to do. I have to deal with it,and your Asian features are beautiful and exotic. Embrace them. I've got to deal with my long nose with a bump on the bridge and almond eyes (wish they were huge like my sisters). But I wouldn't change it for the world lol :) Love yourself, it makes you different, unique and one of a kind. Peace.
chemically processing her hair at 3 years old??? are you crazy??????? i didn't start doing that until i was 11 or 12 -_______- and the white mama is crazy for putting weave in her hair at that age....i mean come on think of the message you're sending to your daughter....you're telling her that she shouldn't embrace her natural hair and it may result in her not loving herself naturally, which could cause self esteem issues later in life :(
@Bitesize1991 It's still crazy relaxing it either way. I mean, putting it on the scalp of a three year old is no different from putting it on the scalp of anyone. - The only difference I would say is the age difference. A 'relaxer' does what a 'relaxer' does, it damages. In the end these mothers are just thinking about what they think is best for themselves; when their children are old enough perhaps they are able to decide for themselves if their views haven't already been too 'bruised'.
I'm sorry this is nothing to do with slavery! Look at the magazines, tv shows, computers, streets, etc and it's pretty to have flowy, voluminous hair! I straighten my hair and curl it to have big waves and that's just as damaging. White people put just as much damage on their hair!
@LexieCohen They do but it doesn't have such a damaging psychological effect which causes people to neglect what's natural. I'm black and have natural hair and I even disagree with whatever other races to do their hair. I won't ever damage or do anything harmful to my hair again no matter what society says is 'pretty'.
what people don't understand is blacks are not the only ones with highly textured hair. asians have similar textures hair (its just on the down low) whites have highly textured hair too. I've met white women with afros who hate themselves for it. people need to accept themselves. play with their look to know what works. I don't blame the mothers who aren't knowledgable on highly textured hair and relax it. because thats all they know.
Not only is she relaxing the little girls hair she is doing it wrong! She is relaxing hair that has already been relaxed not just the new growth. That'll make her hair eventually break and fall out! I could slap that woman!
ranzalove is right. when i was little i would cry, bawl, scream, and ache because my mom did not know how to deal with my hair (even though we are direct sudanese african). i would beg for presses and relaxes until when i was 8, it burnt all my hair out and i was stuck with cornrows. when i was 13 i started doing my hair myself with two strand twists. i had to TEACH my mom how to comb, wash, and protect her hair with the information i got from the natural community. no more pantene and grease!
@Mahaliadina she's not fake. she has to wear fake hair because of her profession where her hair would need to be constantly straightened, washed etc. so she's only protecting it that's all.
I feel like that mother should be arrested for child abuse. No 3 year old should have to endure that. I put relaxer in my daughter's hair when she was 11. It was a big mistake on my part, done in an effort to make it easier for her to comb so that I wouldn't have to do it anymore. She is grown now and her hair is natural, but those 4 years she had it relaxed will be one of my biggest regrets.
@Mahaliadina She has clearly said her hair is fake on many other shows and she says that the reason she wore her hair like that for the show, she was up front about it. dont be trippin online
I'm young, so I have a question for women who grew up in the 80's or before that..... When did black women start wearing fake hair? Did they do it a long time ago?, or is it just something that started in the recent years? because when I see old footage from the 70's (when afro's were in fashion) all the black women have their real hair. Maybe they are wearing straight wigs and stuff now, just because that is what the current fashion is. Not because they're ashamed of their race.
I dont buy into her slave theory. I bet the lighter skinned/softer hair, slaves were treated better, but I live in Canada (never had slavery here) and black women wear fake hair here too, also in the U.K. and any other developed country where they can afford and have access to it. I think dreadlocks and braids look good, if they are done nice I dont see it as low class. But they probably just dont want to go with that look all the time. I dont think its about wanting to be more caucasian-ish.
what i don't get is all the black girls in the audience disagreeing and shaking their heads, as if to say what the moms are doing is wrong, but i bet all those girls in the audience got their permed at an early age too....
Yeah, I'm half Filipino and half Dutch and my hair is extremely kinky and poofy. People with non-poofy hair have no idea. I spend A LOT of money on my hair. It makes me feel so much better about myself plus it's sooooo much more easier for my morning routine. My self confidence goes from like 0-80.
@smellyfeet35 It all depends on the girl's hair, i.e. whether she has hair that tangles easily, and it depends on the girl's character, i.e. whether having her hair combed annoys her or not. I've got 5 nieces, and some like having their hair done, some don't.
@ 1:27 when she put the comb in the girls head she's suppose to start from the ENDS not the ROOTS, using a wide tooth comb, of course the little girl was going to say "ow". Black people have been straightening their hair so long, it's generations of people who don't even know what their hair looks like because they've been relaxed at young ages and in turn when they have kids don't know how to do the natural hair. 3 years old is way too young to start chemically processing -.-
@Ranzalove I thought the same thing. This whole issue is about pure ignorance and laziness. That is, too lazy to learn how to style your child's hair correctly. Not only should she have started from the end, but you aren't supposed to just drag the comb (or brush) through it, you are supposed to use your free hand to hold the bunch of hair, so as not to torture the child by pulling her roots. Dumb, lazy parents with too many convenience products that ultimately ruin the hair.
Whenever people are like "I wish I had curly hair!!" cuz there hair is flat and straight I think they're ridiculous. Curly hair is beautiful, but so much more work than any person with straight hair could imagine. Contentment. All a person needs.
NO offense to this mom or anyone else but 3 yrs old is too damn young to be putting a relaxer in hair!!! Honestly, 8-10 are pretty good ages to put relaxers in if feel like it but under that, a big-ass no-no. Its just to young for putting chemical in hair; hell I had mine when I was 11!!! Sorry but I don't agree with that but to each her own.
Gosh! This is crazy! We are so stuck in this kind of thinking that has this "good" hair and "bad' hair thing!! Your hair is good when is healthy. Like the man said, because you have hair its good. WE have just never learned about our hair and therefore, we don't understand. Our children are using all this weave, perms and I hate I even asked for a perm. I'm glad I'm learning about my hair everyday.
when you relax your hair youre supposed to leave as much time as possible between each session or your hair will just start to snap off, thats what that little girls "kitchen" is at the front there
when i was relaxing my hair id try and leave it for about 4/5 months longer if i could and just straighten it with my straighters really well, but ive just cut mine short and cut out the relaxed hair
Hey Tyra, If it's so horrible that these women to want straight hair, why do you wear weaves/get your hair relaxed on EVERY show with the exemption of this one.. fake ass B
@hlaur87 Tyra is saying it's horrible for children, once you become and adult then do what you want to your hair. She's saying it's horrible for mothers put perm/relaxers/weaves in their hair. So this is about the kids not Tyra.
What os bothering me about this womans sister is she got her hair relaxed too. LOVE YOUR NATURAL HAIR hoe you aren't. I like my relaxed hair just cause I don't feel like having to comb through this nappy mess every day. I just don't like the look of dreads.
Thats not a kitchen! Thats a sign of her hair being messed up! Everybody should know that when you have a perm and your edges are roughed up, that means youre not taking care of it!
Wow...people are so confused. My daughter is mixed and her her is decent. Her hair is so long and thick I had to break down in put a texturizer for kids in her hair. She is seven. This was my first year trying it. I did it for managment not so she could look better. I couldn't comb it no matter what I did. I think her hair was worse than my now natural hair...relentless. I'm planning on texturizing it twice a year. That is more than enough. I would never texturize a three year old hair -crazy!
What really bothers me is how these mothers want their daughters to feel good about their hair and tries to tell them that they are beautiful with natural hair, yet, they look at mommy and she's relaxed. Honestly, I wouldn't believe mommy either because she felt it best to tame her natural. Everyone knows that little girls desire to look like mommy. I went natural 2 years ago and it's the best thing that I've done. I am now pregnant with my son and I will show him how beautiful black hair can be
@SexiVirgoGirl and when I have a daughter, I will do the same. I will not put chemicals in her hair. If she decides to when she gets older, like highschool, she can do that but I will do my best to show her how beautiful she is with her God given texture and I will show her how to style it. That's the problem with us now. We were never taught how to do our hair. The first sign of a kink, mama put the cream in lol. And there are many ways to wear natural hair besides locs, braids, and afros.
Hallelujah! The author in green says it all! That these stupid perceptions of beauty are just PERCEPTIONS, not TRUTHS! God forbid if all that racist, stereotypical rubbish was ever true! Mothers: I don't care about all that stuff with personal preference and 'choice'-- every person likes to change it up once in a while. But some black people got an ISSUE with natural hair, they don't love how they NATURALLY are. And that is sad and self-loathing.
And americans wonder why is Cancer spreading like an epidemic disease in the US. Come on chemicals on your head since 3 years old! That's a lot of toxins to handle for a kid. I don't care what kind of hair you've gotten from birth! These moms are insane relaxing their girls hair and making them feel bad about their heritage, it's a conduct tought by one generation to the next, but I understand the peer pressure too, so sad. We, latinas have the same problem...
I wore a jerry curl till i was 11. I was made fun of when by my cousins and kids at so i begged my mother to perm my hair. For the next 9 years I kept it in and out of braids and perms because it was hard to straightened everytime after a basketball game. My hair would look healthy for 3 months then the next i would have massive breakage throughout my entire head. About 1yr and 9 months ago i came across the natural videos on youtube and never looked back :D. I'm so happy with myself now.
@downgirl123 thats good i am white but i think when black women have theyre hair natural they look so beatiful cuz its you and natural beauty is always better
I'm Indian and my hair gets really curly and frizzy :/ what's she talking about? And white peoples hair can be the same way. Although most have naturally straight hair.
ii dont understand why relaxation hurts in the UK and here, in the US. i am asian, i get my hair done in malaysia (cause im from there). and it has never hurt at all.
i love being part black i just dont love the hair i think black women have to go through a lot of pain in their life this videos make me cry cuz i got teased for my hair
This is sad. My hair type is like 3c 4a but my grandma on my biological dad's side constantly fussed at my mom about my hair being nappy and she wasn't taking care of it and stuff. My mom gave me my first perm when I was 6 and my hair was down my back. The more perms I got, the more hair I lost. (she has wavy hair like my biological father but I never inherited his hair traits) At age 13, I decided to go natural. Now I adore my hair and those children deserve to love theirs too. God bless them.
I'm sorry, but perms fuck up your hair. Plain and simple. I know so many girls with a teaspoon full of hair on their heads because they been getting perms since they were little kids. As far as I'm concerned lil girls shouldn't be getting perms until their in high school.
@Bbopflav212 I remember when I was about 11 or 12 and I knew a girl who would get prems literaly ever 2 weeks and her's was horribly damged and I got my first perm at 13...
Wow. I guess most non-african people wouldn't even know about "good and bad hair". For us, if you have healthy hair, it is good. If you have some split ends for example, you wanna fix it. But we never thought about african hair like that!!! Your hair is beautiful.
This is rubbish about Indian girls! That is a wrong misconception! Our hair is long yes, but its most definitely not straight unless we straighten it. usually our hair Is thick and wavy but never straight naturally
ok for real now why didnt that mom give her kid a towel to protect her eyes from the relaxer being rinsed off?? and you dont put the relaxer on thr WHOLE HAIR!!
ehhh, no. many black women are unhappy with the way their hair looks because of the actually appearence and feel of it. no black woman goes around saying 'oh i want my hair silky and straighter because it might give me a chance to live a wealthier life'. no. they say it because its only a matter of looks, and (unfortunately), many women of color deem their hair less beautiful than other races'
@Logicmaster91 You missed the part where she said it was the mentality that was passed down, that straighter/silkier hair is better, not that it equals a wealthier life in the mind of a modern day thinker. But I agree that the rest of what you said is also true.
I also thought that black women are the perfect one ! I didn't know that they complaint about their hairs. It seems so silly for me, cause u have great hair with big volume. I am asian and i would love to have such hairs as you !
Its NOT good to be putting all those DANGEROUS chemicals in that little girl's hair, esp at a young age. Shes gonna have childhood baldness and hair loss by the time shes 5 years old because of all those perms and relaxers her mother keeps putting in her hair and once that happens, her hair may NEVER grow back because of the permnant damage it causes, esp if shes not doing it right.
i'm white and i have 100% natural perfectly straight hair, and i used to hate it when i was little and always wanted curly hair. but now that i know all the trouble that women with curlier hair go to in order to have straighter hair, i've grown to appreciate my straight hair and now i'm totally in love with it
I don't know where they get the idea that all white girls have straight hair...I've had really wavy hair my entire life and always get fussed at by my mother to straighten it.
@MooooonDemon your dumb and ignorant because not once did anyone refer to "white girls" as being the only ones to have straight hair. Lots of races, Indian, Spanish, Asian, they all have straight hair and they where saying that hair that is straight is better. Not that white girls have straight hairs and that makes them better. Learn to refer to the actual video and not some over generalization you decided to differentiate from the conversation that was taking place.
@MooooonDemon seriously! i've got super curly, thick, frizzy hair, and i'm 100% white. this notion of "good" and "bad" based on racial stereotypes, at least from my perspective, is incredibly messed up. i hope those girls learn to appreciate the beauty they naturally possess!
@MooooonDemon I think when Tyra says straight hair, she means hair that you can run a comb through. You've had wavy hair, which is much more manageable then my curly hair.
@MooooonDemon when they say "straight" they are more so talking about the texture...your type of curly/wavy is different from ours...therefore we use the term "straight" to describe hair that is either more loosely curled or straighter than our own hair
THERE ARE PEOPLE STARVING, PEOPLE THAT HAVE NO FOOD, CLOTHES, PEOPLE ARE BEING RAPED, PEOPLE WHO SUFFER AND HAVE LOST EVERYTHING BECAUSE OF MAJOR NATURE DISASTERS, PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO ESCAPE FROM THEIR OWN COUNTRY AND HERE THEY ARE ARGUING OVER GOOD HAIR??!!! WTF? beauty come from the inside, who hard is that to understand? seriously??

That woman don't know what she is talking about.It T.V that made black people want to have straight hair I am not black but it plane to see that it's the media to blame not slavery
@prittydeb That lady does know what shes taking about. "Mulatto" slaves had a better chance in working in the house or being the house slave, because of their look. They looked more "whiter" opposed to the regular Black slaves. Light skin + Caucasianish facial features + "Good Hair" = Better chances in the slavery life.
@TheManiNicole I heard many people say they want to look like Beyonce, Halle Berry , Tyra banks and so on don't lie to your self the devil made the media like T.V magazines and stuff like that so all race of people will be discontented with themselves.The white wants to be black and the black wants to be white
@TheManiNicole Ok if that what you say is true then why most black women are try to have straight hair but not lighter skin?when a white man makes a child with a black woman many times the child gets light skin but the it still has the black woman's hair so if what you say is true then black women would want to have lighter skin instead of straight hair?
@prittydeb You know what, this is peddy. I'm not going debating with you about something I know is right. Slavery started the oppression and THAT'S THAT! What your trying to do is make sense out of non-sense, and that Ms.prittydeb isn't worth my time. Thank you and have a nice day.
@prittydeb your not black but yet you know what the issue is ?? i agree the media cause this bs also slavyer i live kenya and black women walking around with their hair and proud
i am korean and in my country people perm their hairs a lot. They like both curly and straight hairs and they also like to do a perm like what african people have. so i don't get it why they don;t know how pretty they r. and i dyed my hair to blond not because envy caucasian bcz I LOVE african skins dark like chocolate i wanna have them i like to tan my skin but now i really want my natural hair color back idk when i can grow out it back again takes a while damn anyways love our natual beauty!

Seriously, did that woman ever comb her daughter's hair? And you wouldn't have a 'kitchen' if your hair was natural. It just looks worse compared to the straight part. The front of my hair is thick, soft and wavy because I comb it and look after it. The relaxer ruins the front

I'm sick of the word 'nappy'. So negative. No one will ever call my hair nappy. Yes, it's an afro, but it is thick, natural and I can comb it - better than killing my hair with a relaxer or dragging it out with a weave. These people are twisted

the funny thing is that the thicker, the more curly, the more "NAPPY" the hair is the better it is biologically. The proteins that make up the "nappy" hair is the strongest and richest out of all the proteins. The only reason these people feel that straight hair is good is due to the years of degradation that the black have endured.

I'd be kinda okay with her relaxing her daughter's hair if it wasn't so damn dangerous. Then her daughter could choose whether or not she wanted her hair relaxed or not when she was old enough to do her own hair.
Yet, that still wouldn't be enough since her mother is uneducated about caring for textured hair and does not care for textured hair. That would automatically affect how her daughter feels about her own hair.
Just why can't she let her daughter love herself for who she is, in and out?

chemically processing her hair at 3 years old??? are you crazy??????? i didn't start doing that until i was 11 or 12 -_______- and the white mama is crazy for putting weave in her hair at that age....i mean come on think of the message you're sending to your daughter....you're telling her that she shouldn't embrace her natural hair and it may result in her not loving herself naturally, which could cause self esteem issues later in life :(
Bitesize1991 1 month ago
@Bitesize1991 It's still crazy relaxing it either way. I mean, putting it on the scalp of a three year old is no different from putting it on the scalp of anyone. - The only difference I would say is the age difference. A 'relaxer' does what a 'relaxer' does, it damages. In the end these mothers are just thinking about what they think is best for themselves; when their children are old enough perhaps they are able to decide for themselves if their views haven't already been too 'bruised'.

I'm sorry this is nothing to do with slavery! Look at the magazines, tv shows, computers, streets, etc and it's pretty to have flowy, voluminous hair! I straighten my hair and curl it to have big waves and that's just as damaging. White people put just as much damage on their hair!

what people don't understand is blacks are not the only ones with highly textured hair. asians have similar textures hair (its just on the down low) whites have highly textured hair too. I've met white women with afros who hate themselves for it. people need to accept themselves. play with their look to know what works. I don't blame the mothers who aren't knowledgable on highly textured hair and relax it. because thats all they know.

ranzalove is right. when i was little i would cry, bawl, scream, and ache because my mom did not know how to deal with my hair (even though we are direct sudanese african). i would beg for presses and relaxes until when i was 8, it burnt all my hair out and i was stuck with cornrows. when i was 13 i started doing my hair myself with two strand twists. i had to TEACH my mom how to comb, wash, and protect her hair with the information i got from the natural community. no more pantene and grease!

I feel like that mother should be arrested for child abuse. No 3 year old should have to endure that. I put relaxer in my daughter's hair when she was 11. It was a big mistake on my part, done in an effort to make it easier for her to comb so that I wouldn't have to do it anymore. She is grown now and her hair is natural, but those 4 years she had it relaxed will be one of my biggest regrets.

I'm young, so I have a question for women who grew up in the 80's or before that..... When did black women start wearing fake hair? Did they do it a long time ago?, or is it just something that started in the recent years? because when I see old footage from the 70's (when afro's were in fashion) all the black women have their real hair. Maybe they are wearing straight wigs and stuff now, just because that is what the current fashion is. Not because they're ashamed of their race.

I dont buy into her slave theory. I bet the lighter skinned/softer hair, slaves were treated better, but I live in Canada (never had slavery here) and black women wear fake hair here too, also in the U.K. and any other developed country where they can afford and have access to it. I think dreadlocks and braids look good, if they are done nice I dont see it as low class. But they probably just dont want to go with that look all the time. I dont think its about wanting to be more caucasian-ish.

@ 1:27 when she put the comb in the girls head she's suppose to start from the ENDS not the ROOTS, using a wide tooth comb, of course the little girl was going to say "ow". Black people have been straightening their hair so long, it's generations of people who don't even know what their hair looks like because they've been relaxed at young ages and in turn when they have kids don't know how to do the natural hair. 3 years old is way too young to start chemically processing -.-
Ranzalove 1 month ago 73
@Ranzalove I thought the same thing. This whole issue is about pure ignorance and laziness. That is, too lazy to learn how to style your child's hair correctly. Not only should she have started from the end, but you aren't supposed to just drag the comb (or brush) through it, you are supposed to use your free hand to hold the bunch of hair, so as not to torture the child by pulling her roots. Dumb, lazy parents with too many convenience products that ultimately ruin the hair.

That's the problem with us now. We were never taught how to do our hair. The first sign of a kink, mama put the cream in lol.
