seriously, they’re trying to say that every other thing we do nowadays - wearing makeup, wigs, jewelry, heck even having long hair now??! - is apparently confirming to western ideals. It’s crazy and people need to spend more time outside.
Because we literally exist in a country that didn’t see us a human ??? Everything is political the fact we’re typing this on a phone made from cobalt mined from the Congo with slave labor and build in a sweatshop is political the personal is political , we exist in a country who’s founding was to dehumanize blackness and our hair being apart of said blackness making it political .
@w0cluvr But many things BW do are rooted in Eurocentrism like most of the wigs BW choose and wear. They often choose the very silky long wigs and are styled in a way a WW would style their hair . Just look at the wigs on the BW from “Basketball Wife’s” Their entire appearance is giving WW .
Soooo now we think long hair is European? Let's get the Asians, Middle Easterns, Native Americans, they all need to know their hair length is cultural appropriation now 😂😂😂
Right, all women's glory is their hair and it is mature that it is desired for all women or by most women. It is proven fact that al races have women that can grow it. Not every single woman in existence of every race can necessarily grow extra long hair, unless she takes the necessary precautions and care. What I meant is, not all white women have long flowing hair, I knew a few who personally couldn't grow the hair past their kneck.
@@SunshineState-ou7pr What about for those who don't subscribe to that Bible proclamation? Patriarchal. The Bible was written from a man's point of view about how women should be for men. Not everyone believes in the Christian Bible. There is nothing wrong with women not having long hair. NO there are many women across Africa who are quite happy not having long silk like hair. GTFOH.
I follow that person that you're responding to. She said that, but her own hair IS long. She does freestyle lock because of political reasons like wanting to get away from eurocentric standards, but.... our ancestors used intricate design in their hair all the time? It's not eurocentric at all? They could differentiate the status of everyone by the design in the hair, so clearly it's not because of the white men that we desire long and well groomed hair, it seems to be just human nature
i feel like ppl want to die on the belief that black women (particularly dark-skin black women, bcuz godforbid a dark skin black women is beautiful) that black women cant be beautiful unless their beauty is tied to something other than blackness. i remember there was a dark-skin black model and the amount of self-haters who had to IMMEDIATELY pin her beauty on having eurocentric features even tho the only "eurocentric" feature she had was a narrow nose, which is a feature anyone can have. its annoying at this point.
Narrow noses aren't necessarily eurocentric. I'm Kenyan, born and raised in Kenya. And I can tell you East Africans have small, narrow noses. As an African, I don't understand featurism because all features are found in Africa. These women don't realize that they are hating on African features. I think featurism crybabies are just looking for reasons to feel sorry for themselves.
Eurocentric does not mean it comes from them. We obsess over thin (oval not round or square jawlines) facial frames, small button noses or pointed or thin nose bridges.
Most people associate long hair with femininity, youth and beauty. There is nothing Eurocentric or self-hating about a bw desiring or maintaining long hair.
My mother is African American and Bahamian and her hair grows super quick. She actually hates this because she likes to keep it shoulder length loll. I know it's BS that bw cannot grow long hair. The only ones I've ever seen actually struggle are women who get perms. Women who wear braids, natural, locs all grow their hair quick asf. What kills me is when they say this about weight also. Being healthy is apparently Eurocentric but most of us have family members with high blood pressure or diabetes. Even my black family members who are doctors are taking medication due to hbp. I have a feeling that many women who cannot grow long hair also have a diet issue.
When are people going to realise that we are the blue print for every type of hair. If women with "type 4 hair" manipulate their hair enough it can look like "type 3 hair". We can literally straighten our hair i.e silk presses which looks like YT hair or indian hair etc. BUT NO OTHER RACE CAN MIMIC OUR HAIR. We are so unique. Our hair is so unique. Hair grows long because it is meant to grow. I prefer long natural hair but I've had short natural hair and rocked that shit! You know what I get from videos like hers..."I want ppl to see me as beautiful so when ppl critique me or my hair they are sick or w.e" She has many free from supporters that compliment her locs why doesn't she promote free form locs more? She seems extremely insecure. Anyways My goal is to have natural hair to my knees. It's currently to my armpit
I agree. The two concepts are intrinsically linked and she references feminity in that video. Mayowa says she was treated more poorly, she was MASCULINIZED when her kinky hair was short. That's the problem, kinky hair becomes more acceptable when it is longer. I don't think loose-textured white women are fighting the feminity battle as hard if they choose to rock a pixie cut.
@@rainey53Loose-textured ww are not fighting the feminity battle as hard because their male counterparts promoted pixie cut hair as feminine. Even the term pixie haircut is a feminine term, since they barely advertise pixies being male in cartoons and whatnot. So that has more to do with how the men promote women of certain hairstyles. And a lot women, even nonbw, look like men even with a loose-textured pixie hair length because most women can’t pull off that hair length because it accentuates the jaw and gives a more masculine look. However, if any woman’s hair is shorter than a pixie cut, like a buzz cut or bald, normally it makes them look manly. Plus, very few nonbw going out of their way to shave their head as a hairstyle anyway. Only few women in general can pull off the shaved/ bald look and still look feminine.
@@jennywakeman3267 All women are fighting the patriarchy. We are held to a narrow scope of what is acceptably feminine. Even the fact that society has us concerned about being “feminine enough” is the problem in a nutshell. Because if we are women, aren’t we feminine by default? Society has us believing that we have to perform femininity as opposed to just being. But I digress, my main point is while all women are up against this feminity struggle, black women experience it MORE bc the features and hair that are natural to us are not included in what society deems “traditionally feminine.” Length is one way for kinky haired girlies to feel included in the feminity dialogue. I say, go off sis, rock your long natural hair. I do! I have waist length locs buuuuut, I’m also aware of the gender politics at play. That awareness helps me go easy on myself and know that this game is bigger than me.
She acknowledges long hair being a sign of femininity in her videos regardless of race. I think the point is to accept what 4C natural does natural which includes shrinkage giving the appearance of short hair. Eurocentricism is a thing. Women should be able to experiment with their hair.
I tried to do the shrunken 4c look, but I feel like that is so bad for my hair and mental health. It makes my hair more prone to tangles, matt and knots and its difficult to undo. I prefer keeping it stretched even if I'm stretching it with no heat. Tbh I think its a lot of gaslighting that takes place when discussing bw with 4c hair, bc some bw that don't take care of their hair want to see all bw that have 4c hair look a mess. And some of the non bw want us to look bad too. That's why they encourage this ultra natural unkempt method of presenting our hair
You're correct. Long hair in other cultures like East Asia, Southeast Asia and Pacific Islands - were wearing their naturally silky and wavy and loosely curled hair long - long, long before they saw and yt men and knew nothing of western culture or women or their hair. Same in Africa, India and the Americas and Caribbean - I assume. (My wife is Southeast Asian and that is why I was prompted to learn more about Far Eastern and Pacific islands cultures over all these years). Thank you!
Ohh this is a great comment ❤️It seems like these channels don’t want to create what the representation they want to see and would rather continue complaining about how they don’t benefit from certain privileges.
I understand both points of view. Neither is incorrect. I think what Mayowa was getting at is that, we should embrace our hair at any length. There are lots of black women whose hair naturally is thinand doesnt grow too long. And that look is to be embraced as well. Because as black women, we dont need long hair to be beautiful. We can look good at any lenght. But other groups of people might feel that unless they have long hair, they cannot be beautiful.
Mayowa's channel is actually amazing. You have misunderstood her point and perhaps you should watch the full video. She is referring to the way Africans celebrate certain hair types and lengths and the obsession with manipulating it is Eurocentric. In my country, short hair is also seen as feminine, we aren't obsessed with long hair because the women still look stunning. Beauty standards differ globally.
I wear my natural 4c hair in mini braids as an updo with a fringe i curl with flexi rods. Im super petite so look super cute and people love it men and women alike 💅🏾 x
Folks forget other cultures exist outside of European culture. We’re unique and have lost our ancestors traditions of hair care and hair styles to fit in with universal standards. All humans desire and are capable of having long hair.
I saw that video, I feel like everyone in this thread missed the whole point, smh. It's not that just having long hair is Eurocentric in of itself. No one is telling long-haired 4c girlies to cut their tresses. The point is that women with short kinky hair are treated worse, PERIOD. Women with short kinky hair are seen as being less feminine, even more than women with short straight/wavy/curly girls. It's that kinky hair is not acceptable in a lot of westernized spaces UNLESS it is long. Come on y'all pay attention to the things you consume!
But don’t be commmenting on folk who do have long hair tryIng to vent tot them about the actions of racists and colorists. That’s how it’s seen as jealousy
We know type 4 hair is seen as less desirable internationally. We know short hair is seen as less desirable internationally. LONG HAIR IS MORE ACCEPTED ACROSS THE BOARD NOT JUST WITH TYPE 4 HAIR. Black people do not like type 4 hair or short hair themselves. Desiring long hair is not eurocentric. Desiring non kinky hair is eurocentric.
I have waist length 4c hair and in my experience that is not the case, I've gotten backlash throughout my entire journey whether it was short or long. Even in its long natural state I get tons of criticism so it's honestly surprising to me that people are making these statements about how short 4c hair specifically is seen as less feminine when it seems as though 4c hair in general is perceived that way based on the experiences that I have had.
@@joelledavis4547 That’s interesting, thanks for sharing your experience. I have type 4 hair and have had it at all different lengths. I have waist length locs now and I know I am treated waaaaay better than back when my hair was short and in its shrunken state. Mind you, it depends on where you live and what’s culturally normal in your area. I live in New York City where edgy and earthy aesthetics are generally more accepted.

Black women’s obsession with length is Eurocentric because just look at the types of wigs/weaves black women usually choose to wear when they want lenght. They are mostly of a silky European type hair which does not grow out of black women’s scalp. 💇♀️
I know Africans valued hair and had different herbs for hair growth but the obsession went into over drive when were exposed to Europeans. That's why there are women whose ends look horrible and choppy but they cry cutting their ends off. There was a grown woman crying because she had to cut a inch of hair off at the salon and her hair wasn't even long to be that upset. But caribbeans and afrolatinos also wear straight hair. Black Hispanics also went through the natural hair movement.
It's not so Eurocentric as it is rare in the Black community. Long hair is rare among Black women across the African Diaspora. Got nothing to do with Eurocentricity......if that were true other races could be included in this analogy. Women of Asian descent, (Indian, Middle East and more) have hair that grows in length. That's where women get it to buy their wigs and extensions.
