The mom says that Autumn has never dyed her hair; the color of her braids best matches her natural color.
Naturally lighter hair while black: a fireable offense
i mean in in America so ya know… but yeah I love my natural hair, it took many years to learn how to take care of especially when I had no money and no coping mechanisms for burnout. but its now down to my collar bone! and best of all I have a partner how has learned to do my hair so im always looking cute! and i now wear lots of mens styles which are way cheaper to get done professionally. life is good. also natural hair is weirdly common with black professors ive had. so thats nice whenever go to grad school. Ive heard south africa is having its own natural hair movement. I wish I lived somewhere like cuba where the government was invested in promoting black natural hair.
Yeah natural hair on the rise. It’s becoming much more common, along with braids + extensions. Especially amongst young people, a lot of people don’t straighten or relax anymore.
I was even sad when my friend buzzed their’s off, but apparently they got tired of all the conditioning and how expensive a hair conditioner that worked for them was. Still supported their choice anyways
straighten or relax
“Relax” is such an ironic way to describe what is required to relax hair.

The three most legit genuine comrade professors I’ve ever known in college were all black and they all had natural hair (to be fair one had quite a receded hairline). One marched with MLK. One even rocked an Angela Davis style afro.
I will never forget when I first learned about what the Protestant Work Ethic was and its ties to American Civic Religion and Calvinism for that matter. It took that long to teach me what I should had known in my teens.
yeah I think natural hair (whether people like it or not) says a lot about you. it usually says your cool! so cool to meet the one who marched with mlk!! angela davis was my nickname in college for a bit, due to my large afro and you know being a communist lol.
