I have grade A hair. I can afford to have a fukked up hairline (I don’t) from generations of family members who cared about the quality of hair their children and grandchildren would inherit. That’s not the point. Black men are the only men that obsess over something as mundane as the straightness of their hairline. Why is this?

Does it come from insecurity because melanated hair is more kinky than everyone else’s and so we have to make sure that everything else is on point, so to speak? The obsession comes off as very feminine.

Black men are most definitely not the only people who care about their hairline.

Your whole point is moot. Go get a shape up ya fukkin scrub

Mans got that "Russell Wilson."

 

[Wildhundreds]

Bruh u sound like a Nebraska born oreo ass nikka

Chicago born.

who the fukk is insecure and why u assume melanated people hair is more kinky?.

Perms, weaves, chemicals, texturizers, waves, crisp lineups with ink...of what is this born?

Of course I don’t assume all hair is kinky. Mine isn’t. I was speaking in generality.

This post comes off as feminine. It’s not that serious fam.

I simply asked a question. No emotion behind it.

We’re just having a little fun.

Not the answer I was looking for but you at least attempted to answer the question.

Hair has always been important to black/African people. Different hairstyles represent different stages of life, culture, health. Unkempt hair was/is considered an archetype of someone's mental/spiritual state by many. (*Example: mad scientist, crazy crackhead, hermit/guru or wise spiritual devotee. Their hair is shown as unkempt because their mind is not present.)

Thank you. This makes sense. I can understand why this would matter to Black women as it relates to desirability in a potential mate. What is it to other black men?

Have your hairline resemble a polygraph brehs. :DyingLaughing:

 

[Taadow]

Nicca don't you ever make me come in here for no chit like this again.

 

[badtguy]

At least the nikka got a chance to have a crisp harline.

Some nikkas hair lines looking like an M n shyt.

Why do black men care about their hairlines so much because clearly no one else does?

Appearance at one point for us was all we had. If you was broke at least you looked good

 

[Kinguno]

I feel like one day we will get the true story but I feel like CTE had something to do with it also what ever drugs they pumped him with in Washington did something to bug him the fukk out

Similar to the Getty guy (don't Google image him)

You can tell from a brother’s hairline if he’s PAWGin or PAAGin.

Since when, alot of us walking around without a hair cut in weeks, just get up and go with twists at the top or dave all the sides and let it grow wild at the top

Ya'll a schizo

Why do black men care about their hairlines so much because clearly no one else does?

always wondered that myself, American guys really pay close attention to those things. Not saying everyone else doesn't but seems an American cultural thing to put HEAVY emphasis on it.
