i feel like there’s gotta be something about curly hair suddenly being “in” that’s like. gentrifying/somehow connected to the natural hair movement that we’ve been doing for decades
#the adas speak#i could be wrong. like i really don’t know. but there’s just something about other ppl not knowing how to do their hair#not having products for their hair. like is that perhaps based in texturism which is based in racism#i feel like the (Black) natural hair community talks more about texturism. idk how widespread it is outside of that bc i’m black#but are these not the same thing. the nbs and specifically white people who got bullied/insulted for having curly hair#and never learned to do it because straight was presumed to be the default and anything else was Ugly#i’m really not sure! kind of just guessing! but my negro senses are tingling here!#and the thing is black people have been doing the natural hair movement of getting rid of permanent chemical treatment#and instead embracing their natural hair for ages at this point#and if these things are in fact connected… and there are white girls on tiktok talking about their curly hair routines…#without mentioning/knowing about the natural hair movement… hm.#the thing about being black on this website is that i kind of feel like i have to be know it all nigga just bc there’s not enough ppl#to correct me. but i cannot stress enough that this is just a theory and i’m not saying it’s definitely true#i’m connecting dots that may or may not be in the same picture#i mean i think there’s a solid chance i’m right bc systemic racism but i’m not saying anything is guaranteed#also disclaimer i know other races can have textured hair and we aren’t the only ones who would have texture=[racist slur] experiences#i’m just black. so focusing on that
