I'm tired of..........

I\'m tired of..........

I'm tired of .....people always assuming that AA women with long hair are wearing weaves...brothas not appreciating the beauty of our natural hair....the myth that if it isnt't silky its not beautiful....white hair care companies taking over black hair care companies after they've ignored our needs for so long....sistas hating on sistas with long hair....and stupid white women asking dumb questions because they just assume your hair can't grow as long as theirs.

I used to be tired of this too. I stopped worrying about it a long time ago though. People are going to assume what they want to assume anyways.

I'm tired of the "major" black owned hair companies not making better quality products. I can't just walk into any bss and buy Hairobics or Healthier Hair in a Bottle. But the shelves are practically collapsing from the weight of all the Ultra Sheen and Pink Oil.

Off topic, but:
I nearly fainted when I saw a skin lightening system called Fair & White!

Its like every way we turn, we have these trivial boundaries we have to overcome.

Allandra, you are so cool.

When I grow up I want to be just like you. (I'm probably older than you are.
