A really extra way to announce you got a haircut
Or a very inspiring way for a popular Black British actress many people look up to to reveal she cut off all her damaged, processed, hair (the part many of us fear the most) and decided to start her natural hair journey, at the age of 40 (yes y'all she's 42. I don't see it either).
But then again if you don't get that, the post wasn't for you anyway, so that's fair. That's fair.
Also, as I mentioned this post is two years old but things are going very well 😍
I know a lot of people don't get it whenever they see posts about Black hair. It's just wild to me when I remember there are people who've never had any significant thoughts or cultural concerns about their hair.
My hair doesn't grow in the back of my head. I keep it shaved because it doesn't grow, not to be on trend like some tend to think. My hair/scalp was damaged when I was 13 because an aunt put a strong perm in my head. For years I had sores on my scalp from chemical burns.
It's a big deal. We're in a beautiful era of Black women in all walks of life embracing their natural hair and it should be celebrated and encouraged.
