So for the last couple of weeks I've been wearing my hair in a kind of curly fro, sometimes up, sometimes pinned back. And to be honest, it's kind of liberating, I just unwrap it in the morning, shake it out and I'm done. But have any natural faced criticism for wearing their hair in its naked state? What am I saying, of course we have. Job interviews, dates, going out in general. .. We're just always faced with the nagging social pressure that we'd fit in better, or on the flip side, we'd stand out less, if we'd straightened our hair, relaxed it, got a sew-in, etc.....
But why should it matter? I don't think anyone knows precisely why, but it does matter, we see that.
So on one side of the world, women and children are growing their hair and chopping it off to send to the other side of the world where we glue/sew/braid it in. It sounds really crazy when you put it that way. ..
It's up to us ultimately to toot our own horn or rather sport our own 'do because guess what, if people cared soooooo deeply about what's on our head why don't they shell out $200 to change it. Au no? I didn't think so. ...
