A Black woman's natural afro hair, locs, braids, twists, wash n go's and more vs corporate America. Why is it so tough for black women to gain employment, gain promotions, and more when simply choosing not to straighten their hair or wear a wig/sew in?

    I think it depends on your environment. I’ve been to 4 states but lived in 5 and what I realized is most of the northern states aren’t as judgmental with hair as southern states. I live in Oregon but am from Georgia, I’m more accepted where I am with my natural hair than I was in my own state. I also think our own play a role. A lot of our own are much harsher on us to look a certain way instead of teaching us how to appreciate what we have and make use of it. Just my perspective, yours may be different.

    I have 3 c hair. I only had issues with it in the 90s where everyone wanted us to relax. Now, we all have freedom of choice. I work in a hospital. And noone has issues with black hair. Dermatology though, those ladies all have the healthiest natural hair in my opinion. But its because the medical field knows what to do with growth that doesn't involve products. It mostly internal. Edit: you would lose a lawsuit if you tried to sued a hospital with those beads though in a hospital setting. Those accessories are a health danger to you and others. But I think you know that.

    I am African-American, but I live in Japan and I have an office job here in Tokyo. In my job, they actually really love my hair. They’re always so surprised when I come in with a new style after wash day. All the executives always complement my hair when they see me. I usually wear my hair in a wash n go, and sometimes if I wanna be a little fancy, I just twist my bangs in the front and that’s how I wear my hair to work. I’ve also done a working holiday in South Korea and they never had a problem with my hair there either. I think this is a problem that is specific to America the Japanese people that I meet always describe my hair as a natural perm..

    Start sending recap emails. Anytime some one comments on your hair send a recap email with them and HR immediately afterwards. In my state we have the crown act, but if your state doesn’t have it the problem will resolve themselves, because HR will not let the company loose money.
