[bajandoc86]

Have any of you guys seen these vids on african american 'hair care'?!?! The channel is endorsed by Ms.Tyra Banks.....who deserves a spanking and a time out.


ETA: Some of the vids initially posted were removed from youtube....here are a couple (check out the 'curls on coarse hair' vid) that Bluetopia kindly uploaded for our viewing pleasure.

[Jas123]

Type f for what the f?!?!?!

[bajandoc86]

Oh! and how i could I forget THIS gem....

She looks like a HAM I literally CRINGED when she brushed her hair....I could hear every snap, crackle and pop.

 

[cutiebe2]

lmao!!!! The girl in the third video goes to my gym. Always looking like she is trying to work out without breaking a sweat

These vids are horrible

 

[Tiye]

I like the type f videos. There are scads of black hair youtubers and most are saying the same thing - i.e. quoting the same-o from chat boards that goes back at least ten years now. Tyra simply saw a need for some diversity of opinion - that's a good thing in any field not bad.

 

[Damaged but not out]

The last 5 minutes of my life

Her poor hair

Her hair look so bad

Wait thats all her hair in the brush! Those poor ends

Wow her hair looks really bad, why is she so happy

My reactions to the first vid.


My responses to the" How to lay an afro down' vid

why would you intentionally do that

your hair looks stink

Really your a stylist!

Why are you SO happy, your hair looks bad!

I'm disliking this sh!te

Are you joking....seriously are you. Have you seen that ladies hair!

 

[Poohbear]

Type F-u-c-k-e-d!

These videos need to be taken off of youtube. I literally CRINGED at the first two videos!!! You do not try to paddle brush, blowdry, nor tease shrunken tightly coiled hair!!!

 

[mEmYSELFaNDj]

Omg this lady is hilarious!! This is a joke right? I mean really she cant be serious..........right?

 

[Tamster]

ALL of the Type F videos for black women are HAM. in m/u forum we already cringed and laughed. then natural hair ones are so bad. i cant believe on twitter im 'arguing' with a girl about the laying down a fro video. shes like 'everyone has different textures' and im like, well everyone will be bald if we followed that advice!!

 

[aishasoleil]

My reaction to these vids by way of smilies:

... erplexed ... ... ... ... ...


Is this real life?! Seriously. Tyra... SMH. That first "stylist" was so serious... and she looked a H.A.M! I know my hubby would say something if I walked out of the house like that. He doesn't usually pay much attention to my hair, but THAT... oh my goodness. No. Just no. And don't get me started on ole' girl with the busted wig. Really?!

 

[Mische]

These seem like parodies of the current Youtube craze to me. It looks like she is trying to keep from laughing in some of them like this:

[Poohbear]

Oh No! More madness:

http://www.typef.com/video/make-hair-feel-soft/ She's combing tightly coiled ends with a fine tooth comb

http://www.typef.com/video/keep-hair-frying/ She's suggesting to keep curling iron on hair for 30 seconds to keep from frying... and she's doing it on her shrunken hair!

I laughed SO HARD when I saw those two small sky blue rollers in her hair at 0:03.

 

[Embyra]

WOW

her edges are in the paddle brush

 

[Saga]

There's nothing "slightly curly" about her afro...

 

[CocoaPebbles]

"The most important item for this look ... would have to be STUPIDITY!"

 

[thaidreams]

This has to be a joke, but it's not at all funny

 

[Saga]

This has to be a joke, but it's not at all funny

I know one thing that's certainly not a joke
Her edges and jacked up ends
I wanna DC her hair so bad.
Even if this WAS a parody, why would she make her OWN HAIR the butt of the joke?

 

[DrC]

Okay. which one of ya'll posted one of these comments on YouTube

Who the **** was bold enough to like this monstrosity???

You clearly got your license from a cracker jack box smdh

There's nothing "slightly curly" about her afro...

 

[Saga]

DrC I would be the "slightly curly" one.

 

[Poohbear]

JoAnn Robertson has her own website: http://www.joannrobertsonbeauty.com/

 

[DrC]

DrC I would be the "slightly curly" one.

oh... I didn't actually think anybody would answer to one of them

 

[yaya24]

Sad part is that some people are going to roll with this "advice" because a celeb endorsed it.

 

[curlyninjagirl]

I am getting so weak over here. Oh lawd! The one where she's got those two little rollers floatin' in her hair......and then that laid down afro.....I can't breathe..

 

[AHeadOfCoils]

I am actually offended that they are trying to insult my eyes. Natural hair? Boo, knock it off...

Two-Strand Twist Natural Hair

this is really irritating to me. i hate when they show people "straighting" AFRICAN AMERICAN hair and all they are doing is running a flat iron over hair that has already been straightened. mother do you think we are stupid? they done spiral curled already straightened hair acting like thats "kinky" black people hair.

i hate everything about these videos.

 

[Soquin]

Oh MY. That video is a horrible representation of African American natural hair. A more befitting title for the video would WHAT NOT TO DO TO NATURAL HAIR! Her ends look horrible and she Is giving Terrible advice. And her " smooth Afro" looks like "untamed" hair... A hot mess!
