Thank You for Watching!!
I cannot stand when I hear people use plantation terms like light skinned, good hair, nappy. . . .It is terrible what colonialists have done to us.
MW 7 your ancestors sold you willingly, be mad about that. Tribes would fight and the loosing side would be taken as slaves and sold for trading items. The europeans didnt abducte anybody, and the slave trade still exist in Afrika.
augustynowicz1
Europeans DID abduct. They didn't just go to Africa, they went to other countries as well and pretty much destroyed Haiti. Secondly, with White men on boats with guns and higher technology coming upon your land, you really think saying 'No' to these people is a good idea? Look up the rubber farms that Belgium started. The Europeans were already acting as a plague in their country. Africa didn't understand the contracts that written, and if the Africans didn't produce x labor, their limbs were cut off. The Europeans clearly came with bad intent. Africa probably had no choice to cooperate. And even if the slaves were sold by their own, the Europeans surely had every opportunity to turn slave trade down. They didn't. Thus started the terrible history and brutality of slavery that probably ever existed. So, yeah, Africa gave the slaves away, but the Europeans had done 20x times worse. Whippings, rape, locking them up in basements in the dark, throwing babies to crocodiles, humiliating men in front of their wives, selling their kids away, castration, working them to death in the fields until their very muscles detached, etc. etc. There's a lot the watered-down history books don't tell you.
augustynowicz1 white people lying to get rid of that guilt, per usual. The same white people who told you that are the same white people who said the native Americans peacefully gave up their land.
@ Connor Hicks slavery was a business Brazil was the largest owners of slaves than the USA they’re not European
@MW 7 . 9
Well said.
I love being a BLACK woman! God remind Us of who we are ✨

If you truly felt that way you wouldn't have to announce it
I think black women with a big fro is beautiful. you don't see women doing it anymore like you did back in the 70s.
Your very strange brood forced them into altering their natural hair to be able to have a decent job.

What's up with this thread?
I thought she was complimenting us :/
@@cheeseck7205 because her ancestors & current brethrens are & have oppressed black hair. Her comment is making it seem as if black people decided to just not wear their hair.
@BeeBea ... I wear an afro pretty much every day and no one complains about not being able to see. And you didn't have to be rude to her
We have the best hair hands down!!!! And good hair IS BLACK hair 💪💪!!!!
It's our crown, no other nation has hair like ours that stand upright out of our scalp
Be proud ladies because we're royal
marvalus 77 thats why in your picture you either processed your hair or you’re wearing a weave. Hypocrite.
blonde beauty Brower Why so negative Smh
blonde beauty Brower bitch don’t nobody want your dull no volume ass hair tf😂 fuck outta here with that shit you just mad cause this whole video spit nothing but FACTS. Now go trim that thin plain ass hair.
blonde beauty Brower and secondly our hair defy gravity unlike your weak ass hair that can barely retain moisture our and hair don’t struggle You obviously haven’t heard of Shrinkage Becky don’t get fooled☕️
Speaking as an almost 60yo white woman from Australia, I have to say I have always LOVED the natural hair styles of black people. Your natural hair is beautiful and you should wear it proudly. It's shameful that you should be made to feel that you have to wear it like white people not just by white people but by black people too. I never realized until watching these videos just how fragile your hair really is and to risk damaging it or poisoning your bodies with chemicals is just not worth it. You are black, you are beautiful...be proud of who you are and don't let others dictate to you the type of mould you should fit into.
SoyCow thank you for your wonderful words.
SoyCow just to get my hair done. Hair styles try to advantage me by charging $80-100$ :( so i decided to take it on my self for better or worse to my own 4c hair
I just went natural almost 2yrs now I really am loving my hair it’s beautiful 😍 thank u for your comment it made me feel great 👍
Wow. Great comment. Beyond respectful and so much appreciation for you saying such an enlightened and empowering thing. Thank you. Ur a wise and great human being.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I recall working as a young adult at a salon as a Nail Technician. I was made to cover my natural hair with a crochet cap. The owner didn't like my hair. I was in college and needed a part time job. So I covered my hair, but after a while I quit because I felt so ugly and bad myself.
So all that to say I thank you for recognizing that different isn't ugly. It's just different. Thank you for taking the time to understand that 😊
They covered their hair because whites women were intimidated by the styles the black women did to their hair.

Or is your hair relaxed ??
Deez Nuts Why don't you go and build a business?. Or try to do something to be on par with men of other races, instead of coming on to a hair video to bully women. Bitter beta male.
Kaysinger lol ..Sorry that the truth hurts ..Have a nice day
Kaysinger You should be happy with your natural hair !!!
I'm sure nun of you notice but black people natural hair grows up every other race grows down we are special people
Antenna's to the Universe
fuckk Trump YEAH because every other races of people hair is DEAD, OUR HAIR IS LIVING,TBIS ISN'T HARD TO FIGURE OUT, LOOK AT IT LIKE THIS, A BEAUTIFUL bloom flower, looks just like our natural hair, full,full of life, beautiful.a dead or wilted flower looks just like theirs, limp, lifeless just hanging there nothing to it.
Its shrinks and breaks easier though
Jesus will Judge only if you are lazy and don’t know how to take care of it. It’s the strongest, thickest, voluminous hair. Period.
The problem is too many black women don’t care for their hair due to the teaching of their parents who grew up with the slavery mindset forced on them too. Plus today, white oriole want to act threatened by locs and fros and so a lot of blacks don’t want to deal with that. I personally refuse to appease anyone, especially racist white people that are insecure. I wore my hair down to my butt, thick and natural and white people would get mad when they found out it was all mine.
I don’t care what color you are, weaves are never better than your natural hair
@@chibimisaki2970 i was saying it breaks easier cause when people take their dreadlocs out they have dead hair and its shorter cause it was matted...plus natural hair if you dont condition it every week it breaks......its complicated
African American women were forced by law to tie up their hair. White women felt that black womens hair was another attractive trait that drew in white men.
That was only in Louisiana
Or they had to cut it.
Yeah, but we were NEVER known as being African related people until recently. And we're sure not "Black", either. The term white is a legal status in Law. It has nothing to do with one's subtle undertones.
@@nikitafreedom8841:
Nah, that practice didn't start there nor did it end there.
@@nikitafreedom8841 actually it was done in Dutch South Africa for this reason as well…
Theres still history before slavery
Coullen ik lol but some people think african history begins with slavery which is annoyinv
LOZZAXOX thank u
LOZZAXOX ppl need to research
Coullen there’s A LOT of documentation
Moneybags Anderson
Of my history? I don’t think so. There’s not that much tbh
"There is no such thing as 'good hair' -- just WELL MANAGED HAIR."
RumChocolates i got that good soft afro hair..go ahead n hate..
The foreigners referred to the hybridized child as having 'good hair' (remember after these lying bastards lived with us for 150-yrs, learning how to speak our language "Hebrew", our customs, traditions, culture, policies, and spiritualities... they began to slowly take over), our women were being indoctrinated on the fictitious belief that their 'pale-faced' savior would bless them with a child that shares those features of God's son/sun.
Any hair that will grow is good.
Hahahahah are you white???😹😂😂😂
I notice they always cut black models hair all the time I never knew why but now I kno case our hair is our crown
SShhh its a secret
its because all the stylists are white and don't know how to style it
lived in Milan 5 years modeled for 3 did my own
Employ black stylists then. Too many excuses for racism....
Wow, now that you've actually said it, I've never seen a black model with their actual hair out. If not bald or short, they've a weave on. They know that they'll outshine all the other girls.
I don't understand why either..its really messed up...their should be modeling agencies that don't do that and furthermore the ones who do that should be sued.
I love this. If there's one thing that I admire about the human race is our ancestors. These women are beautiful from head to toe. They literally look like art. No matter what we stand tall. God is KING. ❤❤❤
Stephy JPilot Amen
Stephy JPilot
That statement didn't make much sense. We're dealing with the black race here not the human race. All humans share an origin. But our black ancestors aren't everyone's ancestors if that was what you were trying to imply. The ancestors of the human race are a bit more ancient than that

I see all these positive comments and that's great but will this video stop y'all from making Asians billionaires is my real question ...if not these are just fake ass comments
Oh you mean by Black women buying that fake hair that gets braided in?
I feel ya on that, if thats what you mean.
Asians dont even like their own kind.
By that i mean, women of color.
To the white race, Asians are Black too.😱
Their hair is just straight.
@@tinytt854 uhm Asians and black? I don't think so. You don't have to hate on any other race...
🔥🔥🔥🔥✊🏿
We have the best hair sis.. Ooh I love this video.. Thank you sweet
Yeah Becky is so jealous and won't admit it
It's crazy how people ALWAYS pitted lighter black women against darker (even if they weren't mixed). It's sad to still see this in my day to day life.
WDYM?
49 jubilee- Perhaps, you need to investigate further the origins of divisions and the "Willie Lynch Syndrome."
In many Asian countries having dark skin is a taboo because it indicates low status. Poor people are working outside getting a tan whereas rich people are inside staying light. Don't know if it's the same in Africa. Stupid but that's the way it is.
Unfortunately it’s sad and thanks to that Willie Lynch letter that this has been happening for centuries now smh
49jubilee it happens in all poc societies and it all stems from colonization for the most part
I am white. I have always thought that black women are beautiful. I have always admired natural hair and beautiful dark skin. We all shine ladies!
Rebecca all black women aren't dark, they have different skin tones
Rebecca Thank you. ❣
@Goody two shoes bruh, stop commenting negativity on everyone's posts. What are you, a bot
@@janelle57759 it's a jealous low self-esteem racist.
@@marisutton334 I'm gonna need them to stop showing the true colors that are equivalent to the scum on the bottom of shoes. It looks so bad for people to harbor such darkness to say things like these...
Thank you sister for your video... I wanted to say, what my grandmother taught us. She said " they wore scarves on their heads to prevent, the outrageous behavior of the women, not of hue". They would have their hair cut off, with the cruelest method possible. Braids, were a sign of respect and culture for us, but for others, a sign of arrogance. Thus, the need to keep our hair covered was the norm. Not to mention, working out in the dust and weeds, and not having the ability to wash it as needed. Along, with the reason you have cited in your video. My grandma, had hair that laid down. She, always complained that it was the reminder of who, blood had mingle in hers. She would keep it covered at all time. Our hair, more coarse and curly, she said, was how, her mother hair was... It's almost comical the way, some people call every one else hair good, but their own. And then, there are those with straight hair wishing for the the super curly. My grandmother, was ashamed of her hair... I hate that, because, she left this world ashamed of having straight hair... I am proud of me... I see, my hair, as extension of the Universal, with its spiraling. So, whether, straight, curly, or spiraling,,, I am proud of the women of Hue, no matter, who you are and where. Much respect and peace
I have good hair. I have an afro, Bantu knots, cornrows, I can wave it, I can blow dry or flat press it straight. That's good hair . I don't have to wash it every day so it won't smell, and I don't have to worry about lice. That's good hair. Versatile.
My great grandmother told me before she passed that if the black women hair was much longer then the white women the slave black women was forced to cut her hair so the slave black women will cover her hair or braid it down then covered with a scarf. My great grandmother also made tar grease or used oils from animal fat or plants.
hot shot wow I didn't know that! We need our grandparents to pass that history down. It would have been great if you could have recorded her. Thanks for sharing💕
Yeah my mother made goose grease ...my sister and i went to school with our heads smelling like baked Chicken for real 😁but it grew our hair and it was very MOISTURIZING😁😁all this took place in Jr. High school I was mortified walking around with that baked Chicken smell around my friends..but it worked like a charm.
Interesting! Have you heard about Louisiana's Tignon Law? Similar origins.
Black Women are Beautiful! I really wish we could see this for ourselves and really BELIEVE IT! I'm not condemning anyone for wearing a weave, but I have to say that some women wear it and it takes away from their beauty - if they only knew!!! So many black women look better with their own natural hair. Having long hair is not the equation for BEAUTY. I've seen bald headed or women with short hair step in the room like their hair was down to the floor and OWN the room, because they knew they were NOT defined by the length of their hair! And YES, they were Beautiful! ......Really and Truly knowing who you are and being confident in that is what makes a Woman Beautiful!!! Please Sista's, unless for medical reasons put the weave's down......not braids, but weaves -- You don't need it!
Summers Rule well said.
Long hair makes many of us feel feminine but i preefer to see black women with naturwl long hair :) that compliments their ethnicity rsther than putting on hair hats
I'm transitioning my hair now almost a year in it's hard because I just got my hair down to my waist but now I'm basically starting all over again 😭😭😭😭
Avocados, eggs,olive oil, instead of weaves and wigs. I love to see a woman with natural healthy hair. In India the woman with the matted hair is the spiritual shaman
Summers Rule BEST COMMENT ON HERE!!!!!!!! Leave them damn weaves and wigs ALONE! Be proud of the hair you have! Either short or long! Straight or kinky!
Even the bible said jesus hair was like wool
This was so informative! Thank you for this sis❤
I do not allow people to use the term "good hair" in my presence without checking them on it. This includes friends, relatives, and strangers as well. It doesn't have to be harsh. I usually say there is no such thing as "good" hair. Or I ask, "do you mean more like white people?" Or "who told you kinky hair is bad hair?" If I have to "go there" I explain that this thinking is a direct result of our being colonized and enslaved, and that the term "good hair" reinforces and supports white supremacy. We can not continue to let those comments go unchecked. If more of us do this it will have an impact.
Shiva G yes, sista...we should all be this diligent
Shiva G amen sista amen...said like a true person of our heritage
I know but if I say it I will be an "angry black person always bring up race"
Good hair they mean the straightness
Good hair is healthy hair. It has nothing to do with the texture. I hate when people say “oh you got that good hair” meanwhile ends will be split, and hair will be brittle. No your hair is not good hair if it’s damaged and thinning regardless of your texture or skin color.
I am old and have been telling my girls this for years. There is no such thing as bad or good hair. The only bad hair is unkempt hair. Take care of your hair properly.
My peoples complexion and hair are the same. Only difference is we are in the Pacific Ocean on an island called Fiji. 🇫🇯 Hmmm..🤔
Oh wow! That's beautiful.
Our beautiful nephew Daniel is from Fiji also
We r the indigenous
Jones
Fijians don't really look like black people. They are just another group that looks somewhat similar or share a few features in common because of the fact that everyone descends from africans. It's the same with indians (who have very dark skin), Paupa New Guineans (many who have afros), Solomon Islanders, 'Nigritos' of south asia and the Adaman People on an island close to india.
Jones wassup cousin 😊
I'm a Darkskin black girl with long hair like Alicia keys, TILL THIS DAY I have to explain that YES this is my real hair, NO I'm not mixed,& NO I don't put anything on my hair to make it curly, my hair is natrually curly & soft EVERY1 thinks I wear weave, r have a perm. it's so annoying! Now I know black people can have ANY textured hair NATRUALLY thanks for this video! MAKE THIS VID GO VIRAL!
Jordan Williams Htrue i have a friend who is really dark but her is so soft but wavy and thin
Ì get the same thing, my hair is very long but from your picture you may have mixed grandparents like me?
Black people stop calling ourselves indians. Our ancestors came straight from the motherland. "We are african". Be proud of you're roots. And stop disrespecting our ancestors. And stop listening to so much junk on the internet.
Light skinned ppl think a dark skinned person's hair can't be long? Why? They have 2 touch it 2 the roots. This was an interchange that I witnessed. Lightskinned was surprised.
@@onlytasha950 I'm not too sure we came from Africa
a mandatory law was made that black women had to cover their hair. This law first came about because the white women didn't like that their men were finding the difference of black hair attractive. 'It was later further enforced once cultures mixed and many black women were being born with "good" hair textures and ambiguous fair skin.
I believe this was in Louisiana
Soso Notchurbusiness well stated.. facts my good fellow.
jzzylady007 . Black women still covering their hair with other people's hair. Hypocrites. 👎
Not all.
+Beverly Willoughby hypocrite every race wear weave not just Black woman
This is why to this day we are still SO creative with hair! Its in our DNA!!! And that can never be taken away✊
Africans we have suffered alot but God had a reason of creating different colours of people with the same blood colour
Truth! He loves us all, we are of one blood.
I think a head of thick full healthy hair is good hair.....

April Smith yep
Felt like watching a good documentary. I love this video 👍👌
Thank you for sharing this. We as black women need to know our history. We need to embrace the fact that we're the only race of woman that can, style our hair in numerous variety of hair styles. Our hair is the best in the world!!!
@Laura P. Vanderbooben I really appreciated your comment. I'm glad that you acknowledge that it is NOT our job to teach white people anything about our culture and history, however some of us are more than willing to educate those with a true interest. I just wish I met more people like you, honestly. So many act like they're experts on us. Smh
@BeeBea jeez that's extremely ignorant. Not to mention that all sorts of people come from Africa. People from Chad and different parts of Sudan for example, look like they could be from the West Indies. That aside, we ARE the only women that can do umpteen things with our hair simply because OF curl type and texture variations. Duh! Why some women tend to lose hair is because of not knowing how to take care of it, not caring about the risk of too tight braids, weaves, and over glued lace fronts, stress, pregnancy, the list goes on. Every group of women happens to have their own struggle. But it wasn't until recently, there are more products than there have EVER been, for black women with natural hair. And the process for taking care of it, and finding what works for you, is definitely A PROCESS. A lot of science goes into the care of our hair.
Next time, don't be so quick to judge.
BeeBea don’t nobody care about science you airhead white biggot
Love ur content suh. Black people stop asking folks are they mixed. More like what tribe you from or what part of Africa you from? The first fossil found is a black woman. Lol we birthed the world. So it’s only right that we are so diverse and beautiful 💕the black girl magic is real💖

This was great information, but so heartbreaking at the same time. I agree with you when you said there is no such thing as good hair.
...or black people or African-American people either.
Wow so beautiful black people are unique.
Feriel Sullivan i agree
i love our ancestors sfm! im still salty that our identities were wiped out like that
Jessey Boe Ayee Michael ❤️ I love speed demon
Love that last sentence “there is no such thing as good hair only well managed hair” because I get ignorant women come up to me and ask how I “get” or “train” my hair like that or that I have “good hair”. I’ve always replied that I just take care care of my hair that’s all. But people definitely need to be educated to STOP saying derogatory remarks regarding Natural Hair.
ALL, need to start appreciating ourselves and who we are as races, and stop comparing ourselves with other races because that's how we were created for our own uniqueness. If you graze at the world around there is beauty and variety all over...if everybody was alike or look the same the world would be a boring place. So, let's appreciate who we are as a people of variety!

When I turned 40, I did the big chop.
I'll be 50 soon.
No more chemicals for me.
Cost to much and dries and breaks our hair.
I am still searching for things to moisture...Hawaiian Silky worked for a few months, As I Am starter kit, too many steps; 5 different things to use and in different orders...
Black women need to just be us.
All I want is for my natural hair is this... for me to be able to pick it out into my little fro and for my hair not to be dry.
I dont even dye mine.
I earned the gray.
Its really white. But i like it.
The old pictures are awesome. Where did you find them?
I didn't understand the last part about they used their appearance as an excuse. Can you clarify?
thanks
Technically we're all mixed because we're all related.
Very Informative Good Research☺Our Hair Has Always Been a Bit Controversial Because of its Unique Texture We are a Beautiful Race of People With Many Different Skin Tones and Hair Types( African Descendant)💝 And Our Original Birth Home Africa!
Just FYI not all black America girls do not have the same texture hair or from the African tribe. Some black America some Native American in their background. Especially black Americans from the south of the United States a lot of the Native Americans where forced off their land by the European. There were black Indians until the Europeans got jealous and gave them blankets.
With smallpox. Told the Indians that the blacks African give them smallpox and they need to stay away.
Ashely Stone The Native Americans were Africans who came to the America's
@Ashely Stone:
There is no such group of people known as the "Blacks" we were simply known as Indians (not including the Labrador people from Siberia (the descendants of Genghis the Khan who raged war against Prester John and stole his title Khan/Con), who fought long and hard against our sister Queen Calafia/Khalifa, that's where the name California came from ... she had a dual identity as "Queen Of Sheba" America/amer'Rica.
This documentary is great! Bacon grease and axle grease? I heard about people using forks when they didn't have hot combs, but those tools look harsh. They look like they are used to make rugs.
Well managed hair. YES Ma'am! We are gorgeous people! Amen!
Fantastic information. Black & Proud💯❤️

This video took a lot of research. I love the information that you provided. I have never heard of this information before.
The wordage “good hair” needs to stop in 2018(ASAP!)
Awesome video overall, my sista... Very beautifully done!
In the the spirit of love and enlightenment, check your facts, as it pertains to your statement that "most 'Blacks' in America are from West Africa..."
This isn't true. It is widely believed that most "Blacks" in America are from Isra'el: of The 12 Tribes of Isra'el (more specifically of The Lost Tribes of Y'hudah [Judah]).
Thus, we're Isra'elites. In addition to know'n about the beautiful essence of our 👑crown & glory (our hair),👑 we need to also know from where we truly come!
May The Most High Yah (God) continue to bless your life exceedingly & abundantly above all you can ever ask or imagine in the precious name of His son, Yeshua/Yahuwashi (Jesus Christ) Our Adonai (Lord)! ! !

"Good hair" is HEALTHY hair.
Wow this is crazy...we were stripped, whipped and deprived of our dignity... May we continue to rise up, by the grace of Almighty God.
Lemme tell you something our hair is isnt good hair. It's definitely bomb, baby! I wear my fro proudly. I own it! ✊✊
Thank you Shavante for your Part 1&2 videos. This is very eye opening and every black woman should see your videos. Black women need to embrace their beauty and this includes their features and their hair!
Black hair is gorgeous and I always tell every black woman I see that they can grow their hair with oils and to please stay out of WEAVES which are so damaging to our delicate hair!
Great videos!😁😁
Haaaaa! Paul Mooney is too funny.🤣

Good hair is HEALTHY hair ✊🏿
I have nothing against women who want to wear their natural hair but don't look down upon of the black women who don't. When Africa sold us out to this new world which is America. As black Africans we will all mixed up and we don't remember or know what tribe or what part of Africa we came from so here we had to create our own culture and where we straighten our hair doing different hairstyles. So we are as an American black women. So for all you women and celebrities who were trying to force other women to wear their hair in braids and naturalness and all of these things keep it to yourself because I am ,who I am.
Our hair is apart of our Regal Majestic Glory, to cut it off or straighten it would just make us unholy/ungodly. Amen Hallelujah, Halleluyah, selah.
My mom has white people's hair, and even tho she had trouble doing my hair as a kid she always said my hair was beautiful and she wished she had my hair....I didn't understand then but I get it now; healthy hair is good hair....they tried to take away our crowns but we're JAHs chosen people so it didn't happen....that's why our hair grows up towards our Creator....black love💜
That's a nice way of putting it. 😁
Never taught of hair growing up towards God. That's a thought.
Your mom should be proud of her hair too. We don't need people to worship us to placate low self esteem. Truly confident people don't need to demean others to build themselves up (or form an entire religion around their skin color, that's idolatry). Everyone who follows Jesus is chosen no matter their background. I'm a mix person from the Caribbean.
All black folks are not from the same tribe, the variety of texture is beautiful
Nice👍👍👍

Moneylonger 27 so sorry to hear you hate your hair . Please look for a hair salon that specializes in natural hair or check out UA-cam tutorials for styles you can learn to do. Hope this helps.
Moneylonger 27 I am so sorry that you have to go through this. Please stay strong and know that you have beautiful hair. Unfortunately, sometimes people can make jokes about things that can deeply affect the the other person without fully comprehending the emotional damage that it can cause. 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me' is so far from the truth. Sometimes the deepest wounds are the invisible ones.
Ugh. I too hated middle school and I was treated the same way. I suggest that you don't let those people see you upset. Ignore them and keep your head up. Don't talk back with those people. Its just noise. They will try to get louder and say even worst. Don't let them brother you. Your self worth is not up to them. Keep your grades up and stay classy.
Experiment with different products...when I cut my hair off I used ALOT of gel to hold the curl!! Middle school was hard for most but stand strong little sister and watch 22century woman videos she’ll walk you through 💕
Moneylonger 27 ignore them
This is very good! Thank you dear!!❤❤

@Forever Shavante:
Halito! Sister, 98%, of us, are [NOT] African related people - period. Your ancestors and progenitors began life here!!! The whole Middle Passage was real, but the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade isn't. Shalawam.
@Ivri Yisraeli Yehudi Hebrew Israelite JudahKKK:
I know how you lying Neanderthals love to shadow our sister's videos and post "PRETENDING" to be another sister or an enraged brother to further discredit them and to put them down. You've been exposed a long time ago. Let our sun work its miracle on your unnatural hide.
The African didn't land in America as slaves! They were enslaved men, women, and children! They were human beings. There's a big difference!
There is no difference between hair, all hair is the same, humans are only one race, there is no different races! We all are from the same North African woman found 250.000 years ago. Sientifically it is impossible to have more human races. That being said: the curlier hair has more lack off luiquid/oil. Why? How? If your upper back is round, you will have shorter, curlier, dryer, vunerable hair. If you waist is round (no room for the liver function) your hair will have more dark melanine. Wait until you hear about melanine fairy tail. I will make a vlog on this one also, great information btw
So glad I'm not "brainwashed"... I celebrate my blackness💪🏾❤️✌🏾😎
I always viewed our hair as beautiful. I couldn't wait to get older and stop perming my hair so I could get locs.
Thank you for sharing learned a lot. xoxo
I love my ancestors so much!
Are you serious? I'm willing to bet you, that you don't know the half-truth yet. Truth is, we've all been lied to about everything starting with who we are.
I remember that a little girl said she had bad hair, my heart crushed and I said, your hair is beautiful, you just gotta take care of it right.
I wished black stop using the term “kinky”! Wtf is kinky? Your hair is coiled and COILY NOT KINKY!!! BLack hair comes in all textures and the coils resemble DNA strands.
I love my pretty hair I'm a beautiful black woman 😘
I hair grow UP toward the SUN other NATION HAIR grow down away from the sun....the SUN LOVES US
I'm South African & I'm curly-headed
then u are a true African
People blacks come with many different types of hair!! My son's hair is real long STRAIGHT and CURLY not all PEOPLE OF color have nappy woolly hair.. I'm so sick of people asking my son what's he mixed WITH because of his hair texture and skin tone.. Comments like he has real good hair. ....
I agree we originated from the continent of Africa, However many of people lineage were derieved from North America, This why many are able to connect a person of indigenous descendants than from Africa directly, Granted their were some that came by way of Ghana, However, not one slave ship has been found to this day. Also notice most imagrates from africa, do not acknowledge those from the US, this is not coincident it's because the narrative is not taught in their shcool's only western culture promotes it. If you get the chance, please check out Dane Calloway's page and content. Also please do not take this a critism because it's not, most do not know, but are being aware, and are connecting the dot's of your true ancestry, not the program that is trying to convince you, that it's your beautiful story.
I appreciate brother Calloway and I agree not a criticism it's just what we were taught.
African slaves had their elaborate hairstyles cut off because hairstyles were native to their certain tribes, so cutting slaves hair was a method to further emasculate & separate them so that they would not easily reunite and overpower their slavemasters. Also Afro hair naturally grows straight up & the higher something was on your head demanded dominance. Whites wore top hats to declare their authority but Afro hair was a natural representation of dominance because it could naturally stand high forcing others to look up at you, so black peoples hair had to be continually cut or covered, it even became a law that blacks must have their hair covered. If you look at the black power movement of the 60’s & 70’s blacks wore their hair in full Afros in liberty of the resistance to the continued white oppression. But unfortunately due to the power of television, magazines & job opportunities, silky straight hair was all that was shown & accepted as beautiful which overpowered our own minds & made us continue to hate & hide our natural dominate hair & to this date we don’t fully embrace it among each other unless it’s tamed in some way. We still praise silky hairstyles & silky wigs & weaves. All of the On going jokes about your kitchen, naps & peas continue the self hatred so much that even natural black girls have to slick their edges with edge control. It’s so sad when you know the bigger picture.
Love your video thanks..
No such thing as good hair only well managed hair❤
Lashandra Scott thanks for watching😊❤
We have the most unique hair in the world literally countless different curl patterns! Hell alot of us even have natural straight hair. Our hair/skin is truly a God send!!! 💯
Great info...definitely sharing this video!
Ok so I felt weird about using any products on my natural hair but knowing that before slavery africans used oils etc in their hair like hair products. if I wet my hair it will get dry I won't never be able to comb through it. Also when you said that in 1800s the Europeans would kidnap Africans and cut off their hair reminds me of prison. Another thing people who are biracial (not all ) still feel the same till this day about being Superior to other black people or black society. Thank you for saying there is no such thing as good hair! That is very very true! To me hair textures are just different. When people say you have nappy or this person has good hair I tell them they have a slave mentality.
