Sabaah al khaïr (:

The Media Has A Negative Effect On African American Hair Destroys Self-Esteem It Starts at a young age Feel as if they need to change it, drastic measures Distort what it means to be “beautiful”

Claim #1 straighten or Relaxer “If your hair is relaxed…white people are relaxed, if it’s nappy they’re not happy” – Paul Mooney Feel more pretty and attracted to potential mate Natural = Afro

Claim #2 $$Weave Industry Braids, Sew-Ins, Lace Front, Glue-In Spending over $200 (minimum) Long, Healthy Hair = Beautiful Statistics…??

Claim #3 “Good Hair” The 2009 documentary film by Chris Rock Curly hair is perceived as the ideal hair because it is not “nappy” or “kinky” and easy to tend to Tumblr
