  • I don't think those "whites" wear the hair styles because they want to be black. I think they wear it that way because of the "HAIR STYLE".

  • Personally I think black Americans make more of an issure out of their hair than whites. I think black Americans need to stop using these lables....so that our natural hair will be accepted as natural. But we are still perming, adding weaves, saying natural, good hair, nappy....stop these terms let black hair just be hair. Black people are deemeaning them selves with these terms.

  • Y hate who u r. God created u. I love my natrual hair. Its mine and is super super SUPER GORGEOUS! !!!

  • I think u shud love your hair regardless, it's not just black women taught to conform to the pale blonde hair blue eyed size -1 32DD chick! Women overall need to love themselves no matter what tone you are. But I do understand the turmoil from straightening hair, but it shouldn't be a problem unless it's someone's little girl COMMIN home cryin cause she is being harassed for not having "normal" hair. THAT IS WHEN WE NEED TO PUT DOWN THE WEAVES AND RELAXERS AND START TEACHING OUR CHILDREN PRIDE

  • this is a non-issue. it's just hair.

  • If I ant nappy, I ant happy lol

  • "White people want what you got ?" that comment is needed because ?

    How do people move forward with that rubbish talk ?!

    Get the statement right though. Who's straightening their hair ?

    It's pathetic ! Embrace what you have and enjoy being brought together in something instead of making comments to separate people.

    We all have hair !

  • @WaterFor3st I agree we need to stop labeling hairtstyles as white or black no one has ownership over a hairstyle its just what you feel you look good in smh, we need to move pass the whole color thing everyone is equal

  • I'm from England and I'm black, and no offense to Americans but they make their hair seem like if it's different to everybody else's, it's ugly, they let it determine what person they are, it controls their self-esteem. This is so terrible, I didn't know this shallow side of people, until I watch all these videos on YouTube.

  • The real issue with "nappy" hair is Black Americans believing it is only theirs. I find that truly arrogant, and they should get over themselves.

  • That word, "nappy" is a racist term. If we black folks want to make kinky hair seem good, QUIT USING THE TERM. "NAPPY"!
