Black Hair Documentary: Professional, Personal, and Pretty
Exploring Black Hair Discrimination in the Media Workplace and Identity
This documentary film delves into the discrimination faced by women with black hair in media workplaces and similar environments. Through powerful interviews and personal narratives, the film aims to ignite important conversations about outdated beauty standards and celebrate the inherent beauty of black hair. It also explores the journey of growing up with black hair, examining how societal and parental influences shape our self-love for our natural hair.
The significance of the CROWN Act, a crucial legislative initiative that addresses and combats discrimination against natural hairstyles in the workplace and schools, is also discussed.

    In Charleston why would you need to change your hair? They already don't like you because your black. Makes no sense.

    Chris rock did a better job of explaining this than this propaganda of oppression. That was true 100 years ago...the last 40 has been absolute choice......look at black female superstars of amy discipline....that is where the change must occur. Kardashians popularised the fat arse.....

    The typing system is enlightening. I didn’t understand type 4 hair because I have type 2c to 3b hair, in my family 3c hair is considered kinky. Now I am far more sympathetic to wigs and weaves. I also understand my hair much better and recently explained to my Italian hairdresser why my small section of 3b hair needs different treatment from the rest of my 3a/2c hair. I’m a MGM black woman. It also helps most blacks with type 4 hair, who care to learn, that the products and treatment of blacks with type 2/3 hair is not a pretense of being white. I’ve been accused of tying to be white! No, that’s my hair. My “kitchen” is straight hair. It’s my hair type, I don’t straighten it.

    All my life my mum has advocated natural hair and being confidence in yourself. Since then ive always been natural. However,i use to wear braids and weave as time went by. I also use to straighten my hair during college day's. Now I have stop with the heat, weaves and braids. I style my hair in its natural state and I love it completely. I have grown confidence in wearing my hair. I get compliments from all sides. I havent had an issue of work degrading my hair. With this boost of confidence I feel so empowered. 😊

    I used to have a very hard time with my 3c/4a hair in the past especially as a teenager but now as a grown woman in my early 20s, I’ve learned to love it and figure out exactly how to take care of it and other people compliment how pretty it is❤

    This was good! 👏🏾 I started wearing braids as a form of "cultural reclamation" in 1979 after a hit movie called *10* featured a white, blonde, blue eyed Bo Derek with beaded *cornrow* braids that Hollywood started calling "Bo Derek Braids" 🧐 After that, Black women went all out with traditional and extended braided styles. I had just entered corporate America and thankfully they loved my braids, I think in part, because I didn't have beads. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Whatever, I wore braids 1979-2003. Now in 2023, I'm back to braids because they work for my type of hair!

    🖤I have been natural for about 10 years and I’m so happy I decided to go that route because relaxers & perms were destroying my overall health. Now I’m seeing advertisements about perm/relaxers are link to some cancers 😢. It’s a shame that we are conditioned at an early age that everyone should look the same. We even tell ourselves that permed/relaxed hair is easier to manage when in fact it’s Not! Weekly touch up, Not being able to wet the hair with vital moisture such as water, is damaging! Nonetheless being natural is work like all things true & dear to one’s self care 💆🏾‍♀️ Meanwhile other cultures don’t have to conform or bend there beauty standards by putting harmful chemicals. There edged remains intact! Products such as perms/relaxers, glue, lac fronts, wigs, irons are sold to us 👩🏽‍🦱 but who are the makers of these products😒

    im not black, im filipino, and literally ITSV and ATSV (spider-man) made me wanna study about black hair and culture so this was a really nice video to watch to further learn and research the uniqueness of black hair, embracing it, and all the troubles black people have to go through to just be themselves and embrace their hair, very nice documentary :D

    Indigenous aboriginal native copper colored people of Turtle Island the Niiji were already in the area known as the Americas misidentified as African American black negro. The transatlantic slave trade has been debunked and told in reverse. The term black is a social construct status meaning non-existent or dead under the color of law/black codes. @DaneCalloway #imjustheretomakeyouthink Most social media influencers are CIA agents/doppleganger agents with multiple accounts and fake personas chosen to promote the agendas and narratives of the satanic elite (Vatican Jesuits Catholics satanists luciferians Freemasons Kabbalah Jews) (Psalm 26:4;2 Tim 3:1,13)

    This is so unfortunate! Our crown of beauty is just so unique & greatly coveted, people tend not to be able to take their eyes off it, I think for that reason certain “people” are jealous & envious! It’s a “distraction” because it’s unique & beautiful!💜♥️💕

    My mother would not allow us to even use the words “good hair”. She would say if you have hair on your head, that’s good hair. She didn’t believe softer or straighter hair was good hair.

    I grew up during the 60s and 70s. My remember Melba Tolliver on channel 7 Eyewitness news. She wore her natural hair as I recall. The Afro was big during the 70s. I went into the Army in 1977 I cut my hair but stayed natural through basic training and AIT. Over the past 60 plus years I've been relaxed, Jheri curl, braids, locs etc. For a time when I was in my 30s I relaxed my hair until it started breaking and falling. Panicking I made a vow to God that if he healed my hair and scalp that I'd never relax my hair again. I've been natural ever since. Over 30 years. I've been fortunate to have worked in nonprofit organizations so my hair was not challenged. I thought it eye opening that now relaxers are seen as carcinogens.

    Thank you for the effort, time, care, compassion and thoughtfulness put into this documentary. In NY, I had my period of trying to fit in, now I wear my hair based on the style I feel like wearing, currently short, so often combed out in a styled afro. I can't deny the unacceptance I encounter, so I'm grateful I grew up already confident and comfortable in what I look like.. I hope little girls, and boys with similar texture see their hair is lovely simply combed out, braided, twisted, in loc or in other styles, and also confidently go around this world comfortable in all the physical attribute bestowed on them, and enjoy it as they wish.
