some black men and the obsession with their "waves"

[ShencotheMC]

Fuck waves. Too much upkeep having to brush your shit every 2 seconds. I'd rather stick to my Lupe Fiasco bush thank you

[KinkyCurls]

well that will cause dry scalp and hair loss eventually ... and plus those are teenage kids .... basing your overall perspective off of kids who are still learning isnt wise

hell yeah, it will cause chronic baldness especially if they brush it with grease on their hair. In 5 years they will have bald spots that wont ever grow back.

"fit in" with who? who else have waves that were trying to fit in with???
this nigga said there aint nothing natural about brushing ur hair!!

yeah to fit in... niggas get a cut before they go on a job interview.. date. etc

 

[Copper]

even afros have to be combed and shaped up, dreadlocks have to be maintained with beeswax etc

exactly..as a matter of fact they have to be maintained more than waves..and u have to "tamper" with ur hair more to get them....so if u sport a fro or dreads are u a self-hater???

 

[Jesus Jackson]

she is kinda right. when you be honest with yourself we do this shit to fit in. there is nothing natural about tampering with yourself

Sooo, in other words, you don't shower, use deodorant, shave, get haircuts, brush your teeth, or groom yourself in any way because that would all be considered "tampering".

 

[shawnbrown]

KinkyCurls is a weirdo. Ignore her at all times.

hahahahahha

take a black guy and a white guy to the exact same barber shop, cut both of their hair with a #1 guard, shampoo, grease, brush to groom .... and see if they both have waves LOL

no one is saying that idiot, working hard to try to prevent something that comes naturally like naps is wrong.

technically speaking....... yes.. all the shit you mentioned is conditioning by society when you think about it. we have been tamed to do these things. prove me otherwise.. im not saying that we shouldnt do any of these things but yeah.... its not natural

 

[rose.amoureux]

you're goind way too far out of context. you're basically saying that if you groom your hair in any way its altered LOL

even afros have to be combed and shaped up, dreadlocks have to be maintained with beeswax etc

so ppl are supossed to just wake up, shampoo their hair while in the shower, dry off and leave just like that?? LOL

if you perm your hair so you can style it like some white girl or guy then you have a case. waves are naturally occurring. all you have to do is brush your hair

whats next?? teeth arent really white and its self hate if you brush them?? just leave the tarter and plaque on them to be natural??

wheres the foundation of thinking?? where do you draw the line between natural and unnatural??

Lol. You're trying to make me change my opinion? Its not natural in a sense that you're still training to appear like another texture. I dont understand how Im confusing anyone. When I hear men with waves talk about they need their hair to lay down, they need waves for their hair to "look nice", etc. that doesnt sound right to me. How is nice/neat looking hair wavy? Just like how women talk about when they have gone a couple weeks without a relaxer, all of a sudden they need to "fix the nappy hair", make their newgrowth out to sound like some terrible thing.

Im not saying its bad to have your hair groomed, but when you're equating straight/wavy hair with good hair, it comes off as a deeper issue to me. I've already stated that not every black man with waves thinks like this, or has self hate issues. So I dont get the big deal. Its just what I see/hear.

 

[Copper]

White people dont even know what waves are!!!

 

[shawnbrown]

and once again fit in with who??

think about why you take a shower B. so you wont stink, so ppl wont make fun of you for smelling

 

[Bussy_Getta]

so im gonna assume kinkycurles dont use deo or shave her bush

 

[KinkyCurls]

alot of black guys in my city perm their hair to impress spanish girls dominicans, columbians etc., because those girls like lighter black men with looser textured hair. so they perm their hair and say they are half spanish when they are not

 

[ShencotheMC]

Actually my shit look kinda like this right now

 

[Jesus Jackson]

no one is saying that idiot, working hard to try to prevent something that comes naturally like naps is wrong.

Working hard to prevent something that comes naturally like body odor is wrong, too, RIGHT???

MORON.
