Natural Hair Representation Through The Decades (60s & 70s)

[@trekkingbrium]

THE TRULY POINT IS: IF YOU WANT TO ROCK YOUR NATURAL HAIR, JUST DO IT.....IF YOU WANT TO WEAR A WIG, EXTENSIONS, OR WIG.....JUST DO IT..... IS CALLED: LIBERTY.

[@Isaiah09405]

You are into fake hair that's why you are saying that.

[@omartistry]

It’s not just a trend, it’s cultural pride! ✊🏿

[@VerifiedDiscipline]

I rock my afro every time now i got my dreadlocks and am rocking that

[@LadyKLoves1222]

I wish there was another movement with natural hair...particularly Afros! No one else’s hair can do that!!!

[@Sweetheart0189]

Yesssss!!!! No one❤

[@kkmusic104]

Honestly the afro on a woman is the most beautiful thing I love it

[@philtoner2621]

Thank God

[@glocktwins2343]

Great video! I’m growing out my Afro right now. 👌🏾

[@okeefenokeetheseventeenth2200]

I am bot a Black person, but yes, I would love to see the 1970s fashion and hair styles coming back! They looks so exciting!

[@kaylao.3326]

7:20 I love that picture of Ms Donna Summers. The 70s was my mother’s era and she always talks about it. I wish I had a time machine cause the 70s look dope af

[@TheNaturallyComplex]

The 70s looked so lit, and the fashion was so over the top & I love it lol

[@lastdays3148]

Kaylo O. Yesssss the 1970s were DOPE! The Black Love,Fashion,Hairstyles,Glamorous Ebony Fashion Fair Shows,Family Togetherness, Movies,Sitcom Shows, Music,Musical Bands,Singers. I could go on and on. I was blessed to see all of this moment go down in person and a time that we may never see again. "O" how I do wished for a Time Machine✨

I love the natural hair. I had to use perm rods, but I rocked my ‘fro supporting the cause in the “D” in the 70s. So much necessary change! As a teacher, especially in TN, I had many talks with moms about their Littles, (my student’s), ‘dos. They had to educate me about their need to braid, band and clip their girls’ hair into these amazing styles…to fit in. I was “pro fro”mainly cuz my Little Divas/GQs would get so stressed if they lost beads, barrettes, etc., specially after outdoor PE. (and there were those tims my necklaces/earrings got caught in a braid during a Braille lesson 👀 and I had to get help from the office. I was so afraid I was hurting them). That’s when I learned the term “tender-headed). So, I made sure I had hair supplies in my classroom available to my Littles (boys AND girls) mfrom then on. I love your content. Thank you for sharing. We have so much to learn. 🙌🏻 #40YrsSpEd #GrievingMom

I'm half black and half PR and my dad always left his hair natural. When he was younger he had an afro but then he grew them into dreads. He always told me that natural hair is beautiful and to embrace it. I use to hate my hair and kids use to put gum in it sometimes. Rn I rock my natural hair(3c). We should all rock our natural hair and stop straightening it and wear wigs all the time.

[@TravelerVolkriin]

Being you is beautiful!

[@lizarrington3636]

@@TravelerVolkriin Amen. Latinos are also starting to rock the natural hair. We're always tempted to straighten it. Unlike back then in the 70s, u saw Latinos who had curly hair rocking the fro as well, mostly Puerto Ricans in NYC.

[@yvetteihemesinwa2981]

I'm sorry kids put gum in your hair😢

[@cherylbrewer4918]

I rock my natural silver hair given to me by God and raised daughter to appreciate her natural hair Thank you.

[@rdkirk3834]

You showed a picture of Cicely Tyson, but didn't relate the date of that photo. That's very important, because the photo was of Ms Tyson co-starring in the television drama "East Side/West Side" with George C Scott in 1963. Her TWA in that series was not only the first dramatic starring role of an African-American woman on television (a year before Nichelle Nicols in Star Trek), but also the first Afro worn by an African-American woman on the screen in America, even before the Black Panther Party was created. When I grew out my 'Fro in 1968, people did ask me, "Son, are you one of those revolutionaries?"

[@DreamaTerraWaters]

Do you know how helpful this was for me as a writer trying to clarify details like this ! Hair is so important in the black community and I really wanted to make sure I had the right hairstyles for my characters thank you✍🏾 ✨✨

[@TheLeah2344]

It took me years to embrace my hair because I was taught to hate my hair and I couldn’t get a job when I wore my Afro hair out or wore braids. I use to have to slick my hair back into a bun just to get a job because I didn’t want to straighten my hair again. Despite that, I love my natural hair now.

[@ladytallish4748]

I am natural sporting Anafranil TY p ,so proud of you

[@skrlreels2060]

I love Diana Ross’s afro style on soul train.

[@vickiechege_1234]

Very true!!!Thanks so much for taking us waaaay BACK!!!Tou our roots.....it's so important especially to today's young generation to remember who they are...to embrace whom they really are....one of the reasons i chose to go natural is because that's what i was created with and its beautiful...and i shall rock it!!!

[@kchung3348]

I love these types of videos 😩

[@patriotabazi9343]

All black girl hair is so beautiful all beautiful amazing ❤️❤️😍😍😍🙌🏻🙌🏻✊

[@lastdays3148]

The 1970s I was little girl during hat Decade and I love & cherished the Black Beauty that we had,during that time. I love the Fro and I have been wearing one for many years and now I am wearing Locs. Rest In Sleep to Ms.Donna Summers🌹 People would always tell me that I resemble the Disco Queen. And we do favor one another. However Kelley Roland favors her more than I do. I want a Time Machine to zoom out of the 21st Century and return back towards the 1970s.

[@mylanmccloria6010]

Can’t wait for part 2! Very inspirational 🙏🏾

[@shanasapp6212]

If you have not seen Marsha Hunt and ALL her gorgeous hair in Howling II (your sister is a werewolf), I suggest you check it out. That hair stole the entire movie and don't get me started on her wardrobe. Marsha Hunt and Sybil Danning are the she-wolves I aspire to be.

[@LadyKLoves1222]

Graditude sis!!! I love it!!!

[@lifeworksndhenterprisesllc6597]

The queen magazine with Marsha hunt in '68, Is still around but later change into Harper bazzar and queens in 1972.

[@kay_o5868]

Thoroughly enjoyed! Will be back for part II

[@TheNaturallyComplex]

So happy you enjoyed! Thank you so much for watching!

[@thesbg92]

[@spydershaye3303]

Hi!! This video was super educational and well said. I am using this for a research project for school and I am so excited to learn more about this!!!

[@marilynflowers6811]

This is beautiful

[@SophiaHusbands]

A good video

[@skrlreels2060]

Yasssss ma’am...subscribed

[@720Spiritsx]

Great presentation sister !

[@CA-zf5kk]

Thank you for this ❤️

[@najla4359]

I get talked and laughed at for wearing my fro. I refuse to think I have to straighten my hair just to be beautiful.

[@deedeedixon712]

You were made Beautiful Hair and all !💕

[@lilkenny9885]

Black women looked better in the 70s with their beautiful afros. I hate the bleached skin, fake butts, weave era. Please return to our roots! Our afro is our crown 👑. Don't let your oppressors & TV lie to you!

[@09thespecialone]

Indeed. And they were in shape back then.

[@Confettifun]

Yall always shit on black women 🙄 as if wigs and plastic surgery like boob jobs didnt exist then

[@sheeply1312]

'ancestors'... grandparents? it's weird how recent it was

[@Ko-kf6lc]

Im a white man. But i dont care what anyone says angela davis afro is the sexiest on a black woman

[@Ko-kf6lc]

@sweettbear💝 I apologize I didn't mean any disrespect. I give you the upmost respect. I was just sharing my opinion that Black Women are the most beautiful women in this world

[@carolannmiles-hughes6222]

I went to detention AND claimed i looked like Angela Davis of all people! Wow!🐧🎥🐧😒😳😁🐧

[@balladofmalcomx4978]

Angela Davis a beautiful woman and I'm 26!

[@ms.carlson3904]

It bugs me that black women don't wear Afros anymore and feel they have to conform.

[@najla4359]

I wear my fro but it's not easy dealing with all the bullying that comes along with it.

[@starlinpena4943]

damn kelly fine

[@Jesus_Christ_Is_King1]

JESUS LOVES YOU Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesux, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Repent and turn away from your sins remember it’s your choice to follow Jesus or not but for the wages of sin is death

[@RubinaBell]

Natural black y blacks black. Blacken.

[@ka12nd1260]

Those were wigs

[@honeysauced6443]

[@TheNaturallyComplex]
