Simone Biles Slams Haters Criticizing Her Hair As She Becomes Most Decorated American Gymnast Ever!

[@SheIsFearfullyWonderfullyMade]

And if you regularly follow her, then people will know that her hair is NEVER “on point” which is perfectly fine and her business!! As black women, we are sooooo obsessed with hair. Other races spend money on hair as well especially color treatments BUT we are the only ones spending billions (collectively) on hair. It’s sickening

[@AvecPoesie]

I will NEVER comprehend why others feel so inexplicably comfortable commenting upon a Black female's hair. I am an adult and when I was full-time Caregiver to my now late Mother, who battled debilitating Parkinson's Disease and Dementia whilst I too am disabled, afflicted with Sickle Cell Disease and Major Clinical Depression (by far, the most taxing years of my Life), my hair went on the back-burner. I did not have the time nor energy for my once regular blowouts. People left and right, White and Black, STAYED making comments about my hair. I remember putting my Mother to bed one night and then bursting into tears. I was deeply emotional about it. We as Black women carry a profound, unhealed wound in our Souls about our Hair. All of us. You don't know what people are going through. Keep your opinions and observations to yourselves if it isn't a glowing and genuine compliment. 😢

[@HeathersSpirit]

@@SheIsFearfullyWonderfullyMadewe have always been judged on our hair. Being called nappy headed or not being given jobs because of it. Black hair is not generally accepted. Thats why we have always came up with creative ways to manage it and make it look presentable. I believe the people who are speaking about her hair recognize that as black women we are unfortunately judged and they just want her to fix her hair in a way that she won’t be judged because of it.

Unfortunately, it's a deep seated insecurity because of being belittled and teased, and ostracized about the acceptance of black women hair texture. It needs to be addressed, discussed and put an end to the disrespect especially among the black race. Stop putting your obsession and insecurities on others whose greatness supercedes the vanity and small minds of those that are still in superficial bondage.

[@kaodiumerah2830]

What do I think of these comments on Biles? I think this shows how insecure some black women/girls are about our hair. Some of us have so much disdain for our natural hair. I bet those who were commenting negatively about her hair were def not curly naturals. I bet you they weren't. Im nearly 100% sure they were not. Because to be a curly natural you learn how to love yourself in your most natural state including it's imperfections. Black women/girls have been unfortunately conditioned for centuries that bone straight hair is the standard. It's unfortunate.

She is an elite athlete! Period! The average woman struggles under normal conditions to keep their hair in tact. When you are an athlete, competing and training at that level, it’s a different game. People need to come back to reality. Everyone is not traveling with a glam squad like these reality show stars.
