As a black woman I have nothing against Korean owned black hair care stores in theory, but it's more complicated than that. It's just that when you walk in to a shop for black women and all of the sales assistants are asian, and no one seems to know much about the products that they're selling, much less make a reccomendation, it's not right. Plus in my experience shopping at PAK's in London, the sales assistants follow you around like you're going to steal something. something's gotta change.

This is why I went natural. Other races are manufacturing "black products" how do they know what we need for our hair? But I can't blame them its us black peoples fault for not loving ourselves. Be proud of you curls, coils, kinks!Love what God gave you.

NO NO is their anyone monitoring these company's ? They are becoming a big problem . Why do we Americans settle and take crap from foreigners who come here to just use and abuse us , do you think if we went to Korea and open up a beauty supply store for Asians hair and treat them the way they treat us , we would be shot on the first day of opening ... I know some people are going to be offended by my posting , but I don't care , I'm not ignorant I just call it like I see it

Hi I am a Latina raise in south central LA where almost all stores are own by Koreans that only profit and give nothing in return ! If you drive by these stores they are dirty and could careless about the community they are rude and clueless about the items they carry , they donot treat you with respect at all and wonder why their customers steal from them. Can we honestly say that Koreans love catering to African Americans beauty products ? NO Do they produce safe hair products ? NO NO NO NO

How is that any different from what's being discussed here? Black people taking back black businesses to keep it within the black community. That doesn't seem like a double standard to you?

[BlacknesUnforgivable]

Both actually

But the whole "natural hair" craze is gaining momentum which translates to more koreans being out of business.

[Dershelle Thomas]

The black community has to fight back we have to believe that we have enough power to do so. Buying power. It won't be easy but not too hard. We have buying power. We get what we demand.

[Dershelle Thomas]

This is scary. Koreans (not all) think the most racist things about black people but they have no problem making money off of us. As the woman said we are a nation within this nation and we are GIVING everything away. Does no one care? Why does the black community just accepts things? Well I don't and I never will. Never.

[cinenglland]

trying to claim that the bulk of the hair industry caters to anything but non-black women... nice try, EPIC FAIL. toodles

[Msscpb]

LOL. This is futile. Educate yourself, or remain in ignorance... Up to you. Pax et lux!

[Tsyphur]

You are stupid as fuck

[TrynaGetBacToMyLuv]

How do we act like we are genetically different?
