But what alarms me most is the number of women that won't really address why they hate their natural hair. There is nothing wrong with natural colied hair, but the media plays a big part AS WELL as the black community. Is it a matter of convenience or self-hatred? We have to get out of this mind-set. And to say it's having a "choice" (on whether to wear a weave, perm or a wig) is just a cop out. I’m 47 and have been natural for more than 25 yrs and no it’s popular.

I'm a hairstylist in Oklahoma City, OK and most of my clients, including myself ,are wearing their natural hair in a natural state that is long and silky. I think that we should speak up about this and let the world know that all black women are not addicted to "Creamy Crack" and or weave. I think Chris should have come to our neck of the woods before releasing the untrue generaliztion in his new movie. I feel that this movie stereotypes African-Americans more than we were before.

Clothing, food and just about everything else leaves the Black community.
