It has been so ingrained within us to reject who we are naturally that some of us will not make this transition easily no matter who is effected by our choice not to. This doesnt mean we are selfish or self centered it just means that some of us do not want to imagine the reality we must embrace when we do go Au Natural. <br /><br />It will take time, information, energy and most of all love and patience for us ALL to feel comfortable enough in our own skin to be who and what we are supposed to be by nature. <br /><br />There is truth to what you say but we must not be hard on each other we have to be understanding. We must all meet on common ground so that we might advance TOGETHER.<br /><br />Peace and love GODDESS <br />AsheAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565468542376975325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2133167583391451472.post-17679751554459225322012-04-23T09:44:08.397-04:002012-04-23T09:44:08.397-04:00Peace, you are absolutely right sister.

After having natural hair since a child I know it's personal choice. Black women come in all different sizes, shapes, hues and styles. Who is anyone to tell someone how to wear their hair, how to dress, what to eat, what to think? I'm so tired of the so-called "conscious community". I've been there done that awhile ago. The whole vegan organic, natural thing. Just because that works for me or you doesn't mean it's working for everyone and everyone evolves at their own rate. Be compassionate to sisters with perms or weaves and maybe just maybe they will listen to what your saying instead of cursing them and calling them full of shit and other choice words you used to describe them in a negative tone and light.<br /><br />When I was younger I really use to think that the women that had locks and wore the African clothes and took African dance class, ate vegetarian were so cool and down for the people and I got to see as I grew that you cant judge a book by it's cover! Sometimes those are the very sister will chew you up and spit you out and throw you under the bus and a sister with a perm will help you and give you information and uplift you. So please don't be so naive to think that every single Black women with a perm or weave is self hating. And like I said I am natural and loving it but I understand it's not for everyone and that people can and do change when they are ready.

They go to Koreans stores purchased their hair that came from Indians then go to Hair Salons where Africans sistas braid it. None of that money is being circulated in our community. Also, the fake hair the one made from chemicals causes cancer and baldness. This summer I noticed sistas, young and old, faking it. Makes me want to holla. I also believe its causing alot of sistas to just lose their minds. It has been an increase in stupid crimes committed by young girls. I also take notice that all of them are wearing weaves.moormagichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02721114848491640624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2133167583391451472.post-39198452939855875482011-07-04T07:25:31.197-04:002011-07-04T07:25:31.197-04:00@The Doc

But I know y'all already knew this.<br /><br />Also, a conversation I had with a co-worker once: She kept telling me about the problems she was having with her hair. So I was like, "Well, why don't you wear it natural?" "I don't like to put a straightening comb in my head, i'm not good with it I might burn my ears." "Naww," I say, "I'm talking about natural, natural. Like a fro." She looked at me like I had two heads, with a third one just about to come in.<br /><br />I mean, in her frame of view her real *natural* hair isn't even natural, it's not even a part of the discussion.

And sure there are a lot of self-hating brothers out who seek just this.<br /><br />But the truth is, we so rarely see our black sisters rocking natural hair that we really don't have a basis for comparison. I looooove natural hair, when I see a chick with a fro or some locks it just.... *does* something to me. And they always have that swagger about them, like that knowledge of self, that *real* strength, the kind that resonates from their core, not the "independent woman" false narrative that's part of what's been destroying our black communities.<br /><br />But this is what the system wants. It's all part of the plan to keep us divided, hating ourselves. Pick up a book called "Black Hair" and every woman on the cover has her hair straightened. Look at the cover of Ebonys and Jet from the 60's and not only is the hair straightened, but I think I even saw one where it was bleach blond. Tempestt Bledsoe (Vanessa from Cosby show) saying she couldn't get a role after the show went off because Hollywood insisted she cut off her locks. (Saw her on TV recently with new show, *without* locks. Guess she couldn't ignore the stomach rumblings any longer.) <br /><br />And I know y'all remember when that rep from GLAMOUR said so-called "political hairstyles" like AFROS were a no-no in the office. As if, y'know, letting a person's hair grow the way it grows means you must be making some kind of anti-establishment political statement. Ask yourself then, if they perceive this as a challenge, then to what? The same system that makes you think your hair is wrong. It's an overt challenge to a covert attack. It's almost like the establishment tipping their hand. We can't come out and say we're psychologically assaulting you, but your wearing your hair that way frightens us because obviously our propaganda doesn't work on you.The Docnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2133167583391451472.post-73266981443042776372011-03-28T11:13:00.922-04:002011-03-28T11:13:00.922-04:00LOL!!

As a matter of fact I don't wear a perm, never have had. I wear my hair natural. But I do have very successful friends who do relax their hair. I have white friends who put perms in their straight hair to get waves and curls. I have friends who wear their hair natural yet die it red/blond so give their look a 'pop'. What is your point in saying you 'get paid' how is that relevant to the 'perm discussion' or is that a snippy comment you made, just to have a comeback since obviously you didn't refute anything specific I said in my comments. You just came back with some inane snippy comment about getting paid? What was the point in that? An attempt to get back at me for offering a controverting opinion and because I refuse to co-sign to the negativity that is shown from one sister to others who choose to wear their hair differently? How is that productive? <br />How are YOU growing and reflecting if all you can do is make snide comments, and put down other women because they make choices on how 'they want to wear their own hair' and it disagrees with your own personal choice.<br /><br />Do you put down women who choose to pierce their bodies? wear rings in their noses and ears,? What about women who put 'chemicals in their hair to change the color?<br /><br />How about women who put 'chemicals on their face' to change their looks? (make up is considered a chemical too). How is it you pick and choose what beauty regimens to go after women with and what is your point in doing it? Is it to enlighten, or just to 'attack women'? And again, have you reflected how that is 'important and productive?<br /><br />What have you done Diamond off cyberspace to further the advancement of black women?

Women raped, kids sexually assaulted, black folks falling behind in education and careers, the economy, the dismal graduation rate in higher education, poverty, hunger... reading level. etc... We are talking about how somebody wears their hair? Excuse me? What the hell? This sad tired old hair song is old. We really need to focus on other things that move the black folks forward as a group and focusing on how somebody wears their hair is not going to do it.<br /><br />That move Chris Rock made was for shyts and giggles, I didn't take it seriously at all. I'd like to see him go after the rappers and all the money they spend on shallow things like gold plates in their teefuses, bling, bling, fancy cars etc...<br /><br />We need to focus on black people owning businesses, inventing things like the owner of facebook did, graduating college, stop going to prison and men and women making babies that end up abused and neglected. How a woman wears her hair has no bearing on these any of this. Let that old song go. <br /><br />Regardless of how someone wears their hair, that doesn't change the many mitigating factors that keep black society as a whole down. Folks have the right to wear their hair however way they want and black men and women need to get off that tip of riding women on how they choose to wear their hair as though a sister wearing her hair natural hold some sort of special 'black card' that a sister who relaxes her hair don't.

For the record what comes out of your mind is all over you from head to toe. So once a person becomes conscience of who they are they shed a lot of the fakeness and impurities as well as racial stereo types of how you are supposed to be to “fit in” to the white world. Whit knowledge of self you will learn that we have our own world and the only thing that we as a people have to do is be who we are naturally... Don’t ever get it twisted. That perm is a drug just like crack. It releases toxic chemicals in to your brain that makes you look and feel a certain way and without it you think you are ugly and you become unhappy. Why Miss Jackie would you even come out of your face to say craziness like staying clean is unnatural and self-hate? It is not what you do but how you do it when it comes to cleanliness. We have and always had ways to clean ourselves naturally. The shit that you buy that’s marketed to you that are mass produced and made in the factories owned and ran buy corporations are not good for you or anybody else. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You are obviously very Ill from all the chemicals that you are putting in to your body. You said I look crazy with my mixed breed hair. Lol I am a Black (Moorish) American. My family on both sides are form the Caribbean and they both are black (moors). My Haitian side looks just like my Puerto Rican side with some dark skinned and some light skinned people and if you put all of them in a room together in their natural state you would not be able to tell a lot of them apart. On that note show and prove to me any black (Moorish) American that is not mixed somewhere down the lines... While you are over there running your mouth you could be mixed with more shit then any one else and not know it because you don’t know who you are. But that might be too deep for you since you had to come down to my level. Lol speaking on levels what level did you come all the way from just to make this comment? But go head Miss Jackie you don’t have to forgive me because I haven’t done any body wrong. And you must forgive your self before you can forgive anyone else. And that’s real talk!
