@emaresea I don't think that will solve any problems because black women are still going to use hair color, gels, pomades, shampoos, conditioners, sprays, etc..even if we are natural, we still need products.The major companies have monopolized the business so that we will still have to spend our beauty dollars with them at the end of the day. We have a long way to go, and wearing our own hair is a small part of the issue... Afro-A weave distribution companies are on a steady rise today

Shaming potential black consumers into supporting businesses and aesthetics they don't want/like for whatever reason is just a race based sense of entitlement. Black consumer dollars have as much value as anyone else's so why is there no innovation or competition on the part of black industry types to capture them? Blacks don't owe black businesses anything if their not willing to compete for their money in the market place.

@microsoftgamestudio1 good question. The "hatred" you speak of is created. When mainstream white society repeatedly tell you that NOTHING about who you are is beautiful, self hatred is the result. This isn't just a "black" phenomenon. There are asians that are getting plastic surgery to have more "european" eyes. We have "white" people getting spray on tans and plastic surgery to give them curves and color that they weren't born with.

i really dont get these people why do they hate themselves so much?

If black people do not support black businesses they will always be under other people's hand, these asian have no customer care skills, they treat black people like animals and black people are giving their hard owned money for others to build their community.

I don't understand how you can blame Koreans because they are taking over the hair industry? They just jumped on board something that is extremely profitable, they were being smart and you blame them because they dominate the industry and not the black community? And then the black community promotes going to only black owned beauty and hair supply stores and buying from only black owned products? Im sorry but is this really about the empowerment of the black community or money?

The Black community needs to embrace education/higher education much much more than now. Right now it's actually hip for our youth to lack education and that's devastating. Plus there's a lack of discipline because of so many kids with only one parent. Until we get our Shite together, others will race in front of us and take the opportunities we're passing up.

@reeseleebaby I totally agree to:)

I dont blame the Koreans or any other race for making money. When I was relaxed I walked into a Korean store. The Koreans did not force their product on me. The truth is I was looking for a cheap price and I did HATE my hair. I really thought it made me ugly. How could I have felt anything else. I have heard since I was a child that my hair is ugly and nappy. I am natural now and I love it. I will never go back!!!
Koreans aren't laughing at me. I don't go into their beauty supply stores or their nail salons. The service is bad, the products are cheap and promote allergens and the money leaves the Black community. I went natural 2 years ago, and I haven't looked back. I use real African Black Soap for my skin and hair care, shea butter and olive oil. BUY BLACK.
