Tightly coiled hair does not equal”shyt” if it is tightly coiled that is cool and if it is in between that is cool too…black hair varies based on the ethnic mixture in our ancestry…thats all…black woman have heard or been the target of vicious comments about their hair at some point in there lives as children or adults…and black men will call a black women bald headed in a minute if she has a short fro or doo… that would make any woman feel badly. So at the end of the day the documentary Rock did failed to do what if could have done…as it primarily succeeded only in holding certain aspects of black female grooming up for ridicule.

Just viewed your documentary. What struck me most was the Korean and US government policy shifts that facilitated Korean's market growth in the Black hair industry.

Thanks for sharing.

Why do we always get so uptight about such silly things. So what if we choose to do certain things to our hair. What's the big deal. Is it such a big deal that someone decides to talk about it? Is it supposed to be a secret that we choose to change the styles and colors and textures of our hair. As Wanda Sykes said “white people are watching us” is that the reason. I, myself, can't understand why a woman would spend so many hours at a hair salon just for a hair style and I'm Black. I never knew that men weren't allowed to touch our hair until I started seeing the reactions on TV sitcoms. If we do things to change the texture of our hair because we want to do them, that's our right. If, on the other hand, we are doing it to pretend to others that this is really our hair or hair texture, then I can understand that we get so upset. Chris Rock is a comic, he does things in a comical way. I don't have a problem with it and I need to understand why we get so bent out of shape about it. It's like he has exposed some deep dark secret about us. Tyra showed some Black women who actually bleach their skin to be lighter and no one seemed to get upset about that. I just don't get it……We don't like Tyler Perry's movies because…..we don't like Spike Lee's directing because…….How dare Chris Rock talk about our hair publicly. We go to the movies and laugh or cry and share many emotions, but when it's about us…….everything must be serious. We say that because we are Black, we don't think, speak, believe, vote as a one mind group; but we jump all over others that show this as truth; leading to the belief that we are of one mind. Why are we so touchy about everything? Maybe I'm lost in what I am seeing, so I need to have it explained to me. On many of the websites that i have visited, predominatly where Blacks post; I am especially upset with the postings of young Blacks always interested in skin color and hair textures. When I stay among my own group who talk about other things, it surprises me to find on those websites that the younger folk are still caught up, continuing to spread and accept these age old ideals of color and hair texture among many other things. I'm much more concerned about the reality shows that BET and Bravo are showcasing about our women. Housewives of Atlanta, that portrays “so called” the elite of our community (what a joke) Black people are not putting on these shows yet few have anything to say about these and the ratings are through the roof. When we were going thru summer tv schedule and I had a chance to see a couple episodes of these two show, I was appalled at the material that was presented of Black women, even how we who are more financially fortunate are showcased; and our young folk are eating it up. Now that bothers me. I truly don't think that Chris is giving his opinion on Black women's hair, it's just a fun documentary. Why are we so upset and “insulted” about this. All the first ladies have been made fun of by many comedians, that's normal. We know better……Wanda Sykes made jokes about the first lady but it was just a joke…..We know better. or is it that “white people are watching”. Come on people, must we dissect everything done by Blacks celebrities in show business? They are celebrities and we are moving them to a higher status than they deserve. Many were upset when Denzel won the Oscar by playing a dirty cop and we wanted to know why he had not won when he played good guys. I saw it as the versatility of Denzel as a actor. Who would have ever thought that he could play a role so different that the usual roles he is so good at. Not I. I was blown away at his portrayal in that film. That's why I though he was the winner of the Oscar. He stepped out of the comfort role and he nailed it. When will we stop caring about what some white folk think of us. My goodness with their history in this country, I couldn't care less what many of them think about me; cause it could never compare with what I think about many of them. I just don't feel that this documentary by Chris merits the attention and controversy that we are giving it. It's just hair, not the secret to success.

I agree however one thing, with our population (12%), there is no way we can make up the majority of hair care sales.

"Most black women do not have hair like Mariah and Alicia."

I agree. That is what I said. How bout you read it again so you can get it?

"Most black women in this country have a tight curl pattern. And I stand by that statement"

No they don't. Just cause you stand by a lie, don't make it true..

"I guess now you're gonna tell me that most black women are Mariah's complexion as well."

Nope. But that IS my point, complexion ain't got shyt to do with the texture of hair on your head!!! Women dark as night can have straight tresses and women look like albinos can have tightly coiled kinky hair. YOU just don't get it!! Black women's hair is on a spectrum just like our complexion..and jsut cause you see a sista that dont look hi yellow to you ..don't mean her hair is tightlycoiled LIKE you SEEM to think!!! don;t take my word for it..ask your hairdresser...she'll tell you the same ASS shyt!

"do we hate our hair so much that now we're trying to convince ourselves that most black women have silken waves growing out of our scalps?"

NAW. I am trying to get you to understand that MOST black women don't have that tightly coiled shyt YOU talking about!!

Don't mean it is silken flowing tresses...but it fo sho ain't no rug head either!!

Oh, lord. Most black women do not have hair like Mariah and Alicia. That's a fact. Most black women in this country have a tight curl pattern. And I stand by that statement.

I guess now you're gonna tell me that most black women are Mariah's complexion as well.

God, do we hate our hair so much that now we're trying to convince ourselves that most black women have silken waves growing out of our scalps?

"The fact is most black women do "

No they dont! And that is my point!! You speaking to a SUBset of black women. And there is a WHOLE bunch of us, not feelin your need to describe black women's texture as being ONE way!

It ain't about KEYS, Carey or Chili...a whole bunch of us simply do not have the texture you describe!!! It don't have to be straight but it simply does not CURL TIGHTLY like you describe. IOW's we can't be no afro and it aint straight either. So back your declaration UP!! Everyone don't have the hair you describe AND it ain't necessarily sTRAIGHT!!

"But to play like they are anywhere near the majority"

Ain't got to play like a majority..we just ain't NO minority like you think!! Ask your hairdresser so YOU can get a CLUE!!

"he majority of black women's hair grows out, not down. That is a fact."

No it aint!! Ask your hairdresser...you talking about what you do not know!!! Our hair is on a spectrum like our skin color..bu the thing is..our skin color don't necessarily match the texture of the hair...cause we all MIXED.

So back your shyt UP!! You don't know what the phuck you talking about even if you THINK your texture hair is a majority.

It AIN't!!

I bet you're one of those black women that will still perm even after the studies finally confirm perms are the reason black women die of all kinds of cancers at sky high rates compared to all other women. You'll still be running for the creamy crack even if it kills you.

The fact is most black women do and the sooner black women accept that and embrace it, the better. Are there black women out there with hair like Mariah or Alicia Keys or Chili from TLC. Yes, there are black women who have that hair texture. But to play like they are anywhere near the majority so as to justify perming as if all black women have silky hair anyway is absurd and pathetic. The majority of black women's hair grows out, not down. That is a fact. The majority of black women have tightly curled hair, not loose waves or straight silken locks like a Swede.
