it's this part right here that made me go natural.

:D The whole "you can't do anything with natural hair" excuse is not true either! there are SEVERAL styles you can do with natural hair: twists, BRAIDS - i swear creativity + braids = endless possibilities! Also, locs, afros, mohawks! If we (including me) didn't get our hair relaxed when we were younger, our natural hair would already be long enough to try most of these looks ^! but I'm a lazy tomboy so I don't even bother though lol XD

I did my bigchop 2weeks ago and guess what? I found a bald spot (well not completely bold, barely there). Relaxer did that, I took care of my hair despite it being relaxed so there is no other way I could have got that. Never realised relaxer could damage your scalp. GLAD I'm going natural.

BTW when it come to styling, my hair is impossible. It just sort of slides out of any hold I try to put on it. So it's either redoing it 5 times a day or just let it hang naturally.

So I guess nobody is happy when it comes to hair.

I a white european woman with naturally straight blond hair. (Basically what Hollywood has taught you that you want.)

So I call tell you for sue, that "Good Hair" is bullshit.- Men has still not wanted to date me, I've still had trouble finding jobs, and most importantly, it hasn't made me a better person. - On the other hand, it's gotten me the "dumb blonde" label.

There must be better ways to spend time and money.

perms to white people are different. Perms to white people is when they curl their hair.

Jackie, it's very evident that trekkian88 is full of irrational fear and anger and a very sick man at that. He tries to degrade other people particularly people of color for some false self-esteem. He can keep trying but will continuously fail bc he's really the one dying inside

Why don't we make our natural hair the "Good Hair" in our hearts n minds.

Chris has done a good deed here. I hope ladies see this and realise the shit their putting in their hair.

No creature has as little sense as a human being.

I'm thankful my mother never allowed me to get a relaxer.

Haven't had one in almost a year, and I will never put one in my daughters hair.
