thescarletlibrarian:thewomb:In some black communities there’s still a stigma that kinky or coarse hair is “bad”, which couldn’t be further from the truth. There’s no such thing as good or bad when describing someone’s natural hair texture or type. To those struggling to love and accept their natural hair because of societal pressures, remember this - straight, curly, kinky or wavy, it doesn’t make a difference. Embrace your hair the way it is, no matter what society tells you. All hair is good hair. It’s your Crown.Gerrel SaundersI love how several of these are very historical-esque chignons and updos (I admit it, I also just have a Thing about chignons), but done in a way that protects rather than damages different textures of hair. That’s really cool, getting a style you want by working WITH your hair, rather than against it. (I thought it was really cool when I found out thin braids, cornrows, dreads, etc. protect certain types of hair and make it easier for care for. Prioritizing hair care in culture/fashion is cool.) -- source link
