How to care for Natural Hair styles*braids*twists etc
By Lady of Braids

Some common misconceptions about braids are that you don't have to wash your hair as much, it's not really necessary to moisturize, that they are just wear and go. For many people living by these rules, braids can be disastrous. How many still experience breakage, split-ends, shedding, dandruff, and hair literally detaching itself from the scalp? The good thing is all of these problems are preventable!

At War with "Unmanageable" Hair
By Tina Opie, Tina Opie: My Ethnic Hair Journey

One of my earliest hair memories is sticking my head out of a moving car window and getting upset when my hair didn’t move. At the time, Kelly Garrett was my favorite Charlie’s Angel and her tresses flowed freely. But here I was, at seven or eight years old, the wind making my eyes tear up, but unable to make a strand of my hair budge. I was disappointed and angry. Why did I have to be born with this hair?

Bronner Brothers Show Highlights Natural Hair
By Stephanie Chen, CNN

There were plenty of Crayola-colored wigs and long, silky extensions displayed at the 64th annual Bronner Bros. International Hair Show, which drew more than 60,000 stylists, hair enthusiasts and exhibitors who work with black hair this past weekend. Yet against the backdrop of energetic hip-hop music and among the booths stocked with glossy tubs of chemical relaxers, some black women went back to basics: They wore their own natural hair.

That might be seem like an unexpected trend, with music artists such as Beyonce and Nicki Minaj sporting bright wigs and extensions. Wigs, weaves and relaxers are indeed big business. In 2006, black hair care products including relaxers, shampoos and hair accessories for weaves totaled $1.8 billion, according to The Hunter-Miller group, Inc., a market research group specializing in African-American issues. But going natural, say several stylists and experts, is making a comeback.

Cure Your Creamy Crack Addiction With Happily Natural Day

Millions of African American women visit hair salons every month in search for a "fix" for their highly textured "nappy" natural hair. Ironically called a relaxer, this chemical remedy for a perceived problem of tense, tightly curled coils that occur naturally among African Americans; implies that African hair is wild & excited and needs to calm down. Some have lye, others have no - lye; however the overall truth is many Africans in America use these temporary fixes; coincidentally called permanents, as a response to a deeply rooted condition of self-negation and hard-wired inferiority complexes – both results of slavery & colonization that can be tracked and identified globally; manifesting in a myriad of ways as people of indigenous descent attempt to conform to and assimilate into Western culture and standards of beauty.
