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
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
yeah ive been there, its so expensive to have natural hair. all products that actually work are expensive as hell. its a shame because if we in a less capitalist hellhole we would all do each others hair for free, i like looking at precolonial black hair styles so and unique and beautiful and varied. good on you for supporting your friend. you know youre my favorite white south african? (the bar is in hell, but youve cleared it lol)
straighten or relax
“Relax” is such an ironic way to describe what is required to relax hair.
