I love my church. I've grown so much in Christ there, and I've met many really wonderful ladies there. Yet, today, one of my favorite sisters came up to me and said, "I see you're doing better with the hair" or something to that effect referring to a somewhat poodle like roller set I had last week. I just smiled, and explained to her that I'd been trying new ways of styling my hair with less heat and test driving some new products. She ask me for details and commented that I was trying to be white because of my choice of products and wash regimine (I wash up to three times weekly and it works beautifully for my hair). I instantly thought of a comment someone made on LHCF about taking advice from people whose hair looks worse or at least not any better than yours. From looking at her hair I saw no reason to follow her advice against not, "using products/techniques made for white people."
How do you ladies respond to people who have antiquated ideas about treating black hair? What things have you done to your hair that have brought up the "trying to be white comment"? and how did you respond?
