I actually feel really back for black people and the struggle of hair. I had a friend in high school who had natural hair and she literally explained to me all the products she had to use. It was just a team of 7 different products she had to use, 2 different irons and this wrap she put in her hair. She would wash her hair like, every 2 weeks because it was an all day event. So, ladies and gents with this kind of hair, more power to you!

[@mallbaby1]

wow, she really uses wayy too many products. natural hair isn't as hard as people say it is. majority of the time they over exaggerate.

***** no worries. My username references Naruto haha

[@mary-rd9zj]

okay why are you feeling bad. it's just curly hair come on, we aren't born with dredlocks. two every black women doesn't have the same struggle just like every white person doesn't have the same hair struggles. everyone's hair is different. I'm of African decent, my hair is almost waist length and it only takes a few minutes to wash my hair, I only use four products, and then I detangle later and straighten with no problem. the key for women period with curly hair is understanding your kind of curly hair and planning ahead. I have a white inlaw who has right curly hair literally the same as these women of African decent, and she shares similar struggles. but my hair is easier to manage compared to get hair. I can get my hair more silky then hers and I wash my hair quicker. curly hair isn't just a black thing and it's nothing we should be ashamed of and we don't need anyone's sympathy. that's idiotic. it's hair not a deformation

[@lemonlimeluv2]

+mary I think she was praising the people who actually manage their curly hair because it does take more effort to look presentable or so some may say depending on hair type and hair thickness also comes in to play it literally takes me hours to get my dry hair that appears to be 2 inches in a bun rather then waking up and with barely any effort bun hair that is straight

[@xavisxw]

Well even with a relaxer or weave you have to make hair appointments and let's be real majority of salons don't do it and bc of that we either wait all day, or get a style that takes all day. And when that new growth is growing up under that relaxer those combs seem to snap even faster before your next touch up. Washing seems to be the only difference since most black women like their black naturals wrap their hair at night regardless.

[@GoddessKry]

Not every white has straight-ish hair ... My aunt is pale and her hair is 4c ... Its not a natural color but she did inherit the hair from her mothers side

[@arrianamurguia7453]

GamerEmoGohst Ok okay...? Well this is discussing problems of black women...

[@rvyna4827]

GamerEmoGohst Ok 1) comment didn't even mention white people specifically. 2) never said white peoples can't have straight hair 3) Your aunt is fully white w/ 4c hair? The most i'd (barely) believe for a white person is 4a, so I heavily side-eye that but okay, if you insist. 4) my comment was directed at the people who have no curly hair and aren't Black. If you neither of the two fit you, all negative opinions directed are irrelevant. Plus the video is discussing struggles Black women go through so if you aren't Black how can you say what is and what isn't true? Like I said, how can you criticize something you have no experience in? That is my problem. It's like me being a Chef and telling a pilot instructor the instructions they're giving are false even though I have no experience as a pilot.

When i started make up. It was so fustrating. They have a million and one colors for every shade of white person but like three for black. And they dont even fit me well. Personally. Im inbetween two shades. So i take the lighter one and ppl say it looks too light and i pick the darker one and ppl say its too dark. Ive had this problem in more than one brands btw

[@suzannemakerecha3044]

you should mix both of them together, to find ur perfect shade, and I feel ur struggle man

I have olive-tan skin. Sort of yellowish tan. Literally every make up product makes me look like an orange. Sorry, but I'd rather look yellow and sick then look like an orange walking out of a fake tan salon.
