Hi all...Today my sis and her friend(who I have been trying to get to go Napptural and put the perm down) were talking about their progress growing out their hair and my sis(who is growing out wonderfully) put her friend on blast and told me that her friend had "gone back" I was like WHAT? ahh you disappointment me..anyway to cut it short her friend goes "well I just don't feel dressed up with puffy hair" ???? has anyone else heard that before? how can we stop this type of mind set? :doh

:nohuh I feel sorry for your sister's friend. Contrary to popular belief, nappy hair is versatile. She was probably just uninformed and didn't know what to do. And then gave up too soon.

Obviously, she didn't give her natural tresses much of a chance. She hasn't let go of the mindset that straight hair = beauty. 'Cause I know I look good and feel quite dressy with my afro puff.

I didn't think there were many options out there either until I really started looking at other natural sistas and then when I saw the hair albums it was over!!! I can't wait to try all the beautiful styles out that I have seen! :rainfro
God Bless!

I think it's due to a lack of information and the fact that many women of African descent still continue to fight those self-hating mindsets.
