Self hate is a terrible thing, i wear my natural hair all the time EXCEPT to interviews where I've found i won't get the job so I wear braids,but 3 weeks in they're getting the natural!
Colorism and texturism is so tacky and embarrassing. Folks on that mess gotta stay the heck away from me. I love my hair, even though my family, mainly my father (who coincidentally wore an afro in the 70s as well) tried to shame me out of it. I went natural 15 years ago and it took a while for black people in Arkansas to understand why I would want to cut all my hair off and wear it naturally. Yall gone get this afro anywhere i show up or i wont show up.
Purposefully wearing my natural hair for my wedding next year. For years I've heard from my family and others that my natural hair was not appropriate for events, weddings, etc. Can't wait for them to walk in and see these luscious curls under that veil :)
It's your wedding, don't forget that! We are paying ourselves for it and I refuse to have anyone tell me what to do for the wedding lol Do the braids!!@@Emmajojo1993
I ain't gon lie, my natural low cut with these salt n' pepper natural waves be pullin the men, nii!! 😂❤ Natural 25yrs (from afro, to low shave, to thick locs, to full moon shining Bald) And I've never had an issue getting a job. I love this journey🥰
The Wyman in my family told my sister and me that we'd never get promotions or guys with natural hair. We've gotten more promotions with natural hair than we did with straight hair, and the men love it, too! It really is bad when other races are more accepting of your natural self than your own family
Been off that creamy crack for 10 years and I couldn’t be happier. When I first went natural a lot of people didn’t like my hair but as I learned how to do it and what products my hair liked, I have never been happier with my decision. Everybody got an opinion but when you go natural for you and for your health, it don’t matter. See you at the formal events with my Bantu knot out ✌🏾
So, I’m a first generation Nigerian. My mother raised me to hate my natural hair (amongst other aspects of myself) which was unfortunate growing up since I love my hair texture. I was forced to perm every month until I finally got old enough to stand up for myself. My mom will die by a perm. She still perms her hair to this minute and has very prominent bald spots on her scalp that the flattened hair highlights, lol. Beauty salon wigs decorated her and my bedroom walls. Nothing wrong with a wig and a perm, but it’s the mentality. It’s not many Nigerians with this line of thinking now. In my experience, usually it’s older generations and the younger, “bougie,” generations that have this viewpoint. Eurocentric beauty standards and etiquette were heavily indoctrinated onto Africa and other nonWestern cultures. Edit: Also, and I hope this doesn’t feel targeted to some commenters, us as Americans assume our socioeconomic reform/ movements also occur in other parts of the world. Nigeria didn’t have a natural hair movement. Most parts of the world still proudly bleach their skin.
Listen, I am 1st generation Nigerian as well. I did have the "creamy crack" for years. I have locs now and had it for 7 years. My husband has locs as well. I will rock my hair as👏🏾 I 👏🏾 please 👏🏾💪🏾
There is everything wrong with a perm. I would said wigs BUT I know hairloss is real within the cancer survivor community. Besides that it’s self hate. I pray for your happiness.
Kevin saying "Everybody don't have to do everything" resonates with my spirit 😅 Also, I agree with Angel. I just wouldn't go to that young ladies events. It's giving very superficial to think hair needs to look a certain way in order to be "elegant". Her opinion of her own hair shouldn't reflect on others.
Yooooo I know he kinda brushed by it and it was an offhand comment but “Everybody don’t have to do everything” hit my spirit real hard lol this might be my word for 2024 lol 😂
I went natural right after high school. I did a big chop, one of many, and never looked back. I wear braids and wigs sometimes, but I don't need them. I believe once you know the feeling of being uninhibited by your hair, you discover how truly beautiful a creation you are. I hope all my sisters come to know that feeling. Also, If you "need" a wig, makeup, etc., to be fly, then are you really?!
I totally agree with Angel about the natural hair and wigs. I have been natural since before being natural was popular. I got a short haircut my senior year in high school. I spent most of that year with people questioning if I had a curly perm 👀 (I didn’t). I wear wigs on special occasion and headwraps daily bc I’m suffering from alopecia. I would never tell anyone that wearing braids or their natural hair is not appropriate for the workplace or special occasions.
I too went natural before it was "cool" in high school and the LOOKS!!!!!!!😅😅😅😅 I am in Texas now and when I wear my hair out (especially when is humid) people are in awe. And THAT'S a look that I will cherish 😍
I definitely derive a sense of identity and self-worth from wearing my natural hair. And, asking the girls not to show up to events with their natural would NOT fly in Detroit, like that’s just not real. 🤣
I think that we must also discuss how Natural hair is not protected legally in the United States there are people , Black and Black Men can be fired because of their hair. No other group in the United States can lose their job based on how their hair naturally grows. The crown act must be passed in all 50 states.
Here's The Thing...natural hair has so much benefits especially when in the environment that person is from. As they are able to feed it the right nutrients. Most importantly natural hair is good for you because it's *NATURAL* and grows from your head naturally
One thing I'ma do is show up everywhere bare face with my real hair swanging 😂. I don't wear makeup or weave any other time, so why would I just voluntarily do so to go to YOUR party, event, etc. If makeup or specific hair style is required, you better make that request ahead of time, and then I'll decide if I want to comply or pass on attending the event. Although, I feel like telling people they should wear a weave/wig to events just because their real/natural hair is not nice enough is wild! If I had a dollar for everytime someone asked me if my REAL hair was a weave... why would I add to or cover my hair unless that's just something I personally wanted to do.
Ghanaian here. I like my natural hair and consider it worthy for all occasions. However, it's very hard to maintain natural hair. I don't know if it's more difficult to maintain it as a Ghanaian than as a black American but until recently (the past decade) there weren't a lot of products available that catered to natural hair, and hairdressers would always complain if they had to deal with natural hair textures. I know a lot of people who tried going natural because they wanted to but ended up changing back to permed hair because they had difficulty finding products that catered to their denser, thicker textures. Some others also changed back even after maintaining a natural texture for a long time because they found it too high maintenance for them, especially when they got into university and started working. Most were just disappointed that they were unable to attain the growth they were hoping for when they went natural. It's hard ngl and I get them, but some still persist with the natural texture. Maybe the market will improve for us so that it's not hard to maintain a natural hair texture anymore.
I've been natural for over 10yrs and it is more difficult to maintain than relaxed hair. When my hair was relaxed l'd mostlywrap it at night and wear it down in the day. Being natural, you have to plan and prepare your hair 😂. It's not easy but its healthier than a perm and/or constant heat. I feel like people are gaslighting others when they say it's easy 😂
Thinking natural hair isn't good enough for special events is crazy!! Thanks! Also, thanks for the shoutout![I'm Ohemaa MaMokowa; dud pretty good with the pronunciation!] Didn't mean to write the dissertation 😅Love hearing what yall have to say. Supporter since day 1!
About 10 years ago I found out I had alopecia and one of the things I found out is that I can't wear fake hair of any kind it breaks my scalp out I can only wear natural hair or organic real hair but I'm not mad either because she doesn't have to worry about me going to any of her events and they talk about American women who happened to be black. I also cut it all off in the summer.
Taraji interviewed Jeffrey Wright on Variety and when she asked him if this was his first lead role, he said no. He was the lead in "Basquiat", "Boycott" and "Cadillac Records".
As a first gene Ghanaian-American, I can say that the learned hate for our natural hair is a worldwide phenomenon that effects all African descendants everywhere. And on a much lesser scale, curly hair is considered 2nd class around the world too. We have all grown up hearing the same negative things about our hair, and we all still have older generations of our people that will never wear/like natural hair. The natural hair movement really only had a big impact among Western culture. It did have an impact elsewhere but outside of that, you'll probably just find women that don't relax their hair under their wigs anymore.
I'm from a time where natural looks are different because of the guidance. I think what you have now is convenience. When my sister was little, she had long hair, but of course, you know it was more coarse. I remember the girls hating to get their hair done because my mom was rough. She put some grease to slick through it, but it was straight pull through it. There is nothing on the hair but grease and wrap it up for the night. I don't think she started going to a salon with chemicals until she got grown. We didn't have salon money. My wife barely goes to a salon. She's natural and I love it. I'm more in love with a natural look. To each her own.
I wear my natural hair all day. I can’t put a wig on for nothing and these braiders are getting ridiculous with the prices and rules. My hair stay in a low bun or mini twist
What products do you use to do your low bun and allow it to stay down all day? Ecogel or jam will have my hair frizzing and lifting up within 2 hrs 😓😓😓
Not to start no diaspora issues lmao but Black Americans are miles ahead in the natural hair conversation. Not Africans. This isnt an antiquated convo for them
My son wants to play Major League Baseball. He’s a catcher which we don’t have any black ones hardly. Baseball is that all American sport according to the yts. I’m praying my son gets to the league.
I love y’all I’m getting tickets today for the NY show 😂I can’t wait And OMG so hard for me to listen to you at work 😂😂😂 everyone asking what are you listening to … I’m like Here’s the Thing… you better get with it ❤😂❤
Ok thank you for your time guys❤️😂😊I gotta go catch #ITGTCAA, it came on 30 minutes ago👀❤️👀❤️ then i gotta keep up with #youvegtmel and thw rest of you all❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I would KILL to hang out on “Black Lady Sketch Show”!!!🥹 *Black Lady Courtroom* plays in my head everywhere I go. I wanted to do try it at the doctor’s office because the waiting room happened to be full of all sistas. 😂
In the 99 and the 2000s, I didn’t have a perm in high school. Hair down my back, had to fight a girl because she thought she was going to pick on me. I permed my hair my senior year, it hasn’t been longer than bra strap since. Same chicks that was hating, were chopping their hair off in college. Black people worldwide need to do better. ✌🏾
Our sistas in the motherland be......on something else when it comes to beauty. Its....shocking. Learn to lay that lace before you come for me and my type 4B tresses.
Girl bye … then she was Nigerian. I wear my natural and braids more than Anything. I have worn my natural to formal events ….i tend to get more compliments on my real hair !
I'm a 37 year old black woman who has never had a weave or wig a day in my life. And I have a head full of hair with edges to spare! She is oozing self hate and it ain't cute boo
I wear my hair natural to all events including interviews to make a point. If I can’t wear my slick curly puff in the interview, that ain’t the job for me.
I remeber going for a pharmacy tech job and it was an older black woman that complained about my hair in the interview. The white man had no issues and even confronted her on how stupid she sounded. Mind yall my hair was laid and curly as i had just taken out my flex rods that morning.
From what I understand, the embracing of natural hair has been slower to take off in Africa than it has in America. I don’t know what the climate is like today, but I remember reading articles several years ago about when not feeling comfortable going out in their natural hair even in their day to day lives… let alone in professional or formal environments.
NOPE. Maybe Nigeria or West Africa, but definitely not in the South. Going far back to the early 1900s, we had the exemption laws that dictated our dress code and looks and we rejected them. We have loved our natural hair even when the apartheid government laws banned certain hairstyle and headwraps. Winnie Mandela encouraged black women to stop straightening their hair in the 60s to prove that we can be "as elegant as them" with natural hair. There are clips of her having these conversations on TH-cam. I would recommend. In South Africa, a non-black couple adopting a black child is required by social workers to take a basic course on natural hair care.
@@Ms.July29 that makes sense. The article that I most recall focused mainly on West or East Africa. I can’t remember which. But they did extrapolate it out to the larger culture. Obviously, since Africa isn’t a monolith, this isn’t going to apply everywhere.
I went natural after Covid & I love my natural hair! I'm still learning and figuring out hairstyles but I have no desire to wear wigs or weaves, I don't have the patience for them!!! There are always going to be Black women who think Eurocentric hairstyles are better than our natural hair!! More power to them!!!
I'm a part of the creamy crack community 😂 and I've been so for as long I can remember but I can also say I didn't start getting relaxers until I started going to the hair salon in my teens, so I can still remember my mom braiding my hair in 6th and 7th grade. I had a good hairdresser who LISTENED to me when I told her it started to burn, who curled your hair with the curlers you put in the little warmer 😂 but as I'm getting older I'm learning that I would rather keep my hair in braided styles than having to remember to get a relaxer ever month. The videos I see of these mamas putting relaxers in these babies' hair and they don't even look ten years old give me a grimace. 🥺😮💨🙄
I’ve always wore natural hair. My cousin told me for her wedding I would need to wear a wig or straighten my hair. Guess who wasn’t in that wedding. Can’t stand the hate blacks all over have about the hair god gave them. Our hair rises not falls. Who you want Rapunzel or Erykah Badu to save you.
So when I was 17 I went to Japan with a student group, and I was mostly vegetarian but I did eat fish at the time. I got eel sushi at a gas station somewhere near Nagasaki and I have to say it was the best eel sushi I have ever had. And then I had sushi in a department store in Kyoto and... when I came back to the states I had to give up fish because it was so nasty here lmao. It's so true that what we've been exposed to is what informs what is good to us, which is why I'm so lucky that my parents (from NY) always had me eating all kinds of food from so many cultures because rarely do I have something that is flat out gross to me because of a flavor that I'm not used to.
Crazy how some people would shame someone for wearing their natural hair done well and prefer a hard wig. Nothing wrong with wigs but quit telling other people what to wear.
Regarding the hair conversation, it's also important to note that some people that can't stand you enjoying progress when they went through oppression, so to them, if they had to perm their hair to get jobs and be socially accepted, they want to impose that hurtful standard on the next up...
Any woman that feel that way about her natural hair is insecure. Period!! It’s sad that they don’t love and feel comfortable and beautiful presenting themselves with their natural hair. They rather wear a bad frizzy tangled wig.

Angel’s Prayer😂😂…. “Give it to her Lord”!!!😂
That was hilarious! Mimicking stroking the hotel associate's head.🤣
I would KILL to hang out on “Black Lady Sketch Show”!!!🥹
*Black Lady Courtroom* plays in my head everywhere I go. I wanted to do try it at the doctor’s office because the waiting room happened to be full of all sistas. 😂
My momma name Peaches 😂 Angel talmbout "what stripper?" 😂
In the 99 and the 2000s, I didn’t have a perm in high school. Hair down my back, had to fight a girl because she thought she was going to pick on me. I permed my hair my senior year, it hasn’t been longer than bra strap since. Same chicks that was hating, were chopping their hair off in college. Black people worldwide need to do better. ✌🏾
Our sistas in the motherland be......on something else when it comes to beauty. Its....shocking. Learn to lay that lace before you come for me and my type 4B tresses.
Girl bye … then she was Nigerian. I wear my natural and braids more than Anything. I have worn my natural to formal events ….i tend to get more compliments on my real hair !
I was in the studio! Yes Angel!!!!!
I'm a 37 year old black woman who has never had a weave or wig a day in my life. And I have a head full of hair with edges to spare! She is oozing self hate and it ain't cute boo
I am Angel when my friends talk about sports. "mmmhmm sports, I love sports".
The like button lights up when yall do the intro 😂🎉
I’m 29 & rice got me EFF’d UP 😂, I feel u Angel!
Great show!
I wear my hair natural to all events including interviews to make a point. If I can’t wear my slick curly puff in the interview, that ain’t the job for me.
I remeber going for a pharmacy tech job and it was an older black woman that complained about my hair in the interview. The white man had no issues and even confronted her on how stupid she sounded. Mind yall my hair was laid and curly as i had just taken out my flex rods that morning.
As a person from Fayetteville thank you for saying Skibo right 😂😂😂
I love my natural mane!
From what I understand, the embracing of natural hair has been slower to take off in Africa than it has in America. I don’t know what the climate is like today, but I remember reading articles several years ago about when not feeling comfortable going out in their natural hair even in their day to day lives… let alone in professional or formal environments.
NOPE. Maybe Nigeria or West Africa, but definitely not in the South. Going far back to the early 1900s, we had the exemption laws that dictated our dress code and looks and we rejected them.
We have loved our natural hair even when the apartheid government laws banned certain hairstyle and headwraps.
Winnie Mandela encouraged black women to stop straightening their hair in the 60s to prove that we can be "as elegant as them" with natural hair. There are clips of her having these conversations on TH-cam. I would recommend.
In South Africa, a non-black couple adopting a black child is required by social workers to take a basic course on natural hair care.
@@Ms.July29 that makes sense. The article that I most recall focused mainly on West or East Africa. I can’t remember which. But they did extrapolate it out to the larger culture. Obviously, since Africa isn’t a monolith, this isn’t going to apply everywhere.
I don't want the hat on hat on my natural hair either Angel!! That Preached!!❤
"I glued a hat ON TOP OF A HAT" 😂😂😂💀💀
When I think elevated beauty + natural hair, I think of Lupita Nyong’o. Her beauty is outward and inward.
I went natural after Covid & I love my natural hair! I'm still learning and figuring out hairstyles but I have no desire to wear wigs or weaves, I don't have the patience for them!!! There are always going to be Black women who think Eurocentric hairstyles are better than our natural hair!! More power to them!!!
14:30 the colonizers plan is working🤷🏿♂️ We hate ourself😢
I'm a part of the creamy crack community 😂 and I've been so for as long I can remember but I can also say I didn't start getting relaxers until I started going to the hair salon in my teens, so I can still remember my mom braiding my hair in 6th and 7th grade. I had a good hairdresser who LISTENED to me when I told her it started to burn, who curled your hair with the curlers you put in the little warmer 😂 but as I'm getting older I'm learning that I would rather keep my hair in braided styles than having to remember to get a relaxer ever month. The videos I see of these mamas putting relaxers in these babies' hair and they don't even look ten years old give me a grimace. 🥺😮💨🙄
I’ve always wore natural hair. My cousin told me for her wedding I would need to wear a wig or straighten my hair. Guess who wasn’t in that wedding. Can’t stand the hate blacks all over have about the hair god gave them. Our hair rises not falls. Who you want Rapunzel or Erykah Badu to save you.
1:11:31- Facts Kev. My university does the same thing. I act like I don't see those emails & etc. I need the donations right now.😆😆
I've been natural for eight years and wish my hair coming to your thing would be an issue. I'm looking for a reason to be home anyway!
So when I was 17 I went to Japan with a student group, and I was mostly vegetarian but I did eat fish at the time. I got eel sushi at a gas station somewhere near Nagasaki and I have to say it was the best eel sushi I have ever had. And then I had sushi in a department store in Kyoto and... when I came back to the states I had to give up fish because it was so nasty here lmao. It's so true that what we've been exposed to is what informs what is good to us, which is why I'm so lucky that my parents (from NY) always had me eating all kinds of food from so many cultures because rarely do I have something that is flat out gross to me because of a flavor that I'm not used to.
Crazy how some people would shame someone for wearing their natural hair done well and prefer a hard wig. Nothing wrong with wigs but quit telling other people what to wear.
"I'll smoke some...loud for Angel." Joshua Deshawn Gonzalez is Soon to come....the Father in him is growing Stronger!
Regarding the hair conversation, it's also important to note that some people that can't stand you enjoying progress when they went through oppression, so to them, if they had to perm their hair to get jobs and be socially accepted, they want to impose that hurtful standard on the next up...
I wear natural mostly. Time to time I'll do a weave. I'm getting ready to put in clip ins
Jeffery Wright may not have been the official lead of the movies he’s been in but he performed as if he was the lead.
That segment about metabolism had me thinking about the scene from Big Daddy 😂😂😂
Thank you Angel!! Dark skin against light skin? Slavery was also lucrative 😂😂😂😂😂
I love angel and the sports segment 😂😂
Any woman that feel that way about her natural hair is insecure. Period!! It’s sad that they don’t love and feel comfortable and beautiful presenting themselves with their natural hair. They rather wear a bad frizzy tangled wig.
I love how they always sing "she's biracial!" 😂😂
