Hair's just hair.
No other Humans have the kind of Hair that we have. Are we cursed or blessed, unique and special ? is the cup all the way filled or half empty. and Ladies don't fall for the okee doke ! If you have a nice round butt (big or small) what's hair got to do with it ? If you have a Afro you are COOL !
It's neither good nor bad. It's just hair. Ours just happens to grow differently than everyone else's on the planet. So what? Some asians are born without that extra eye-fold. It's all ethnic. We should just accept our ethnicities instead of trying to go through all sorts of extremes to look more like white folks (i.e. asians undergoing surgery to get that eye fold, african diaspora putting sodium hydroxide on our scalps for straighter hair, etc).
I can't fathom how people don't see how diversity is so beautiful...
all hair is good hair. i think ppl look down on kinky hair because they dont know how to take care of it, instead of trying to learn how to style their natural hair they just perm it. personally i love my hair. my hair is good hair, nappy aand kinky and all.
I think it's funny how some people consider Nigerian hair to be bad hair, yet it's the most ideal grade of hair if you wanna get dreads because it's gonna lock itself without little to no treatment.
That's Just 400 years of conditioning!  They want us to HATE OURSELVES!!!!!!  BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, Mark!  I get that whole "don't look a gift horse in the mouth" feel when people judge hair... The question arises, "by what standard is the comparison made?"

  "We must liberate ourselves from mental slavery..."  &, &, & "until the colour of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes..."  Two great positive men I would love to see all of Humanity emulate in the fashion of freedom ~ Robert Nesta Marley & HIM Haile Selassie I.

Yes, kurojira uzumaki

In my country (Madagascar where people got curly, straight, and whatever sort of hair) there's a proverb who say:

Gita volo, aviana razana (texture of your hair come from your ancestor)

You can't blame your roots!

Stop mental slavery!!!!

We are blessed with beautiful hair! And I have good hair bcz I have African in my family! ...
Two words...HAPPY NAPPY!
