This hair is very manageable when you know what to do. If you want to an effective simple routine for this hair type, go to my website, and print out the instructions.

If you want to see an example of well cared for “kinky” hair, google Stephanie Suthers. I’m planning to feature more women like her on my site in the coming months, if they agree to interviews.

Look, in case we do not want to face the sad reality…people still talk about good hair and bad hair among our young people and it is a shame. I work in a middle school and more than half of the girls wear weaves on a regular basis. They do not know any better. They do not like their hair, they do not like themselves. They like people who have hair that less kinky. This type of film can be something to help young black girls and hopefully teach them at an early age, like my parents taught me, there is no such thing as good hair. Hair is hair, that’s it. Be glad if God blessed you with some and if you do have any be glad for that too.

It seems like this good hair/bad hair debate would be dead in our society but unfortunately it is not. This film will not solve the problem but hopefully if you can expose young people to some ideas that make them reconsider how they think about themselves then maybe, it was worth it!

Ooooooh my GOD! I have been waiting for this for months! I heard about this first on Oprah and I thought it was an amazing concept. I love the whole good hair/bad hair argument. Chris Rock is fantastic and I know this is gonna be great.

I would love to see this movie. I have always and still remain concerned about how beautiful Black women (and men play an important part as well)often deny our true heritage particularly our natural hair and fail to teach our children the beauty in who we are. I am disheartened by young people & even younger children degrading one another if their hair isn’t straight and/or long. I hate to see young children with extensions, a weave or even an added piece like a ponytail. We more than whites tend to place an emphasis looking more Eurocentric than whites do. Even models, singers, celebrities who started out with their natural style have gone straight. I’m all for diversity and I feel we have the most creativity when it comes to our hair but to fixate on just one look is denying who we really are. Wouldn’t it be nice if we were all just ourselves.

I am excited about this documentary. I have now reached the point where I have worn my hair in the natural state longer than in the “unnatural” state. My daughters have always had natural hair and have thick locs. They have never asked about the beauty of their hair. They know it…I always tell them how beautiful they and their hair are..I didn’t think about it until reading this thread. They never flinch and trust me, other kids have tried to test and make comments about their hair, to no affect…They just know.
