well when black ppl say natural hair they are talking about black ppls hair most of the time...you aren't black and you don't get relaxers to alter your hair like many black women do...so of course the concept of natural hair would be silly to you...

I feel you 100% Not to start anything but I am tired of the Natural Nazis. I am relaxed and currently transitioning. So, I'm on here looking for inspiration and guidance on my natural hair journey. I started this to have versatility. Naturals always boast about the versatility of their hair, yet when one sista puts a flat iron to her hair, all hell breaks loose. Where is the versatility if you can't go from relaxed to straight? What does versatility mean to them??

I think you are right about it reverting back to the tight curls after it is wet. So with people who have heat damage or who "heat train" their hair to permanently loosen the pattern with heat then I don't consider their hair to be in its natural state. People who use heat w/o permantly changing the natural pattern are natural.

your a chocolate queen you are the mother of all women on earth...please believe me!!

GIRL! I love your definition of natural hair!!!!

You are still Natural if you apply heat (Being free of harsh chemicals that alter the hair structure) heat is not a harsh chemical and your hair bounces back after a wash.I been Natural all my 18 years on this earth and those products (Pantene & Suave) are for anybody all it does cleanse & condition your hair.Organic is great but it comes with a hefty price.

I agree w. what you were saying in this video... as long as it not a chemical to keep it straight you still natural.

Real Natural hair to me is hair w/o chemical relaxation. I see what you are talking about with people being die hard Nappies ( I say that with affection I'm a Nappy myself) but to me hair is a choice like clothing, makeup, etc. You should do whatever makes you feel and look the best.

Natural hair is a silly concept. We all use products on our hair to make our hair softer, cleaner, shinier, you name it. Whatever makes you look good and feel good can be natural. White girls don't all have naturally straight shine to the hair and i speak from my life experiance. I iron my hair almost daily and color my hair monthly to lighten it. I'm white but my hair isn't like on the tv but i try to make it look that way anyhow. All women try to look good and we all try too dam hard.

I just went natural. It has only been about a month. I came on youtube to get info on how to take care of my hair. (Everyone has a lot of great info) But in my research I noticed all these Perm vs. Natural and I never knew there was this infighting with our hair. At the end of the day I wanted HEALTHY hair and for me a perm obviously was not cutting it. I love my hair now but my sister has beautiful healthy hair that is relaxed so such is life. Give me healthy hair any day of the week!

how long have you been natural???
I think hair is natural as long as the structure of the hair isn't being changed. Heat can actually permanently change the structure of the hair over time. I know people who have hair that won't revert back to the "nappy" texture because of heat overuse.

This is one of the things I learned right here on youtube. That is why I love it here so much. I had no idea heat could have such an impact. Thank goodness I don't use a lot of heat to begin with...Lord knows I don't want to have to do another chop. Thanks so much for your comment.

You know what... I'm glad you brought this up because I was just thinking. I see many Natural women on YouTube. However, they have unnatural hair colors in their hair for example red or etc. So I think being natural is hair that is not chemically straighten or curled.

I agree. I do think it's so great that natural hair is very versatile. But, while we try these different methods we have to pay close attention to how our natural hair responds. Thanks for your comment.
