Black men how do we convince black women to love their natural hair?

[Poitier]

I actually like short hair so to each his own.

You are an outlier

 

[Arishok]

Would not be an issue if you started growing it out from childhood and not when you have a revelation during young adulthood.

People can be offended by this but you're right


Wish my mom never relaxed my hair, I'm going to make sure not to relax my daughter's hair in the future

We can all have one of our white male associates to tell random black girls that they prefer them with natural hair. That'll get the job done.

edit: god dammit, looks like everyone already used this line

 

[miranda]

lmao so they let a few men with negative comments stop them from embracing their beauty....so do the ones who support natural hair not have an equal effect on them??

It's not a few men, those quotes represent the feelings of the vast majority of black men in the usa, meaning the people who are descendants of the slaves brought to the united states. I dont know how canadians, africans, west Indians or whatever else feel. the men american black women are attracted to publicly lust after features that we cant have without permanently damaging our scalps, just facts.

 

[GhettoTeK]

I ain't breaking sweat for these hair hats. I'd simply not fukk with them and fukk with natural hair black women

 

[Premeditated]

Yup when they think curly natural hair what they don't tell you is that they really mean this

NOT this

Then got the nerve to be talking about natural hair when most shave themselves practically bald, so that they don't have to "deal" with it. Then the ones with long natural hair are like "well I did it why can't you"? Knowing damn well that they only wore one style for 3 years, and barely touched their hair. Something people would call women crazy for doing. It'll be "why don't you switch your style up" and "you should change your hair". Manipulation is the mortal enemy of natural hair, and when women find a low manipulation hairstyle (weave) it's a problem? Then the big elephant in the room... blacks have been told that their hair is less than, unkempt, unprofessional, and a whole other host of negative things for centuries. Of course some people are going to believe that indoctrination. But, no let's worry about women who don't wear their natural hair and make fun of them instead of doing something like educating our people and building a black economy. Oh, and all this Is coming from someone with natural hair.

As if those men are seriously stressing hair when they look at you.

If you want to know what they are really looking at then look lower.

If I wanted a chick with European hair then I would of went with a white chick.

 

[The_Truth]

Quite frankly, I really don't give a fucc anymore. Black women with natural hair are some of the biggest white man worshipers on the planet.

How the hell would you know what the vast majority of black men want?
Cut it out

 

[True Blue Moon]

I see waaaaay more natural hair than perms these days.

 

[MoonGoddess]

It's funny how some of you dudes act oblivious to this shyt. Whether you guys notice it or not there are guys out there that act like women with natural hair unless it looks a certain way are unattractive. Ya'll can act like it's just a few guys but we're the ones getting approached and told these things. Why is it hard to believe that it seems for us that's its the majority of men? I had a dude ask me if had cancer cause he couldn't understand why I cut my hair and let it grow natural. I literally had a dude that had a crush on me for the longest time ask me what the fukk did I do and when was i gonna perm that nappy shyt on my head. On the flip side I've had a couple of dudes tell me it's refreshing to see a sister with natural hair. Usually island guys oh and Rastas lol, they stay trying to get with me. I'm not saying all and I'm sure that there are lots and lots of black men that appreciate and love natural, it just seems like they all post on the Internet and don't be out there trying get with us.

It's s self esteem issue but it's also a culture thing. We help foster a culture and mentality that puts straight hair on a pedestal. I'm not giving black men the bulk of the blame - that goes to western, white society beauty standards. But still I wish we'd stop praising these chicks with ridiculous weaves.

Natural hair looks so much better. I understand sometimes a weave is less time consuming, I'm not saying chicks should never wear one. I just want to see a balance. Locks are beautiful. I also love the curly Afro style. Black hair is so versatile.

Stop praising reality TV thots running around with rags on their head brehs.

white men have to tell them first then they'll listen

If men "praise" reality tv thots, then it damn sure has nothing to do with their hair
This is just outright silly
