Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

A lot of my Black girlfriends don't like their hair..the upkeep it takes to keep it straight, the fact that they can't wash it whenever they want or as easily as White or Asian girls can, the fact that they have to spend forever at the hair salon, that their hair is so dang greasy, etc. Do most Black girls wish their hair was easier to take care of?

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

well well i have black friends who taught like this but after when i gave them indian hair tips and it worked for them they stop thinking like this. my black friends used to always tell me oh you are so lucky to have indian hair i told them my hair is just like anyone else and it only grows because of hair products i used. they always taught indians hair were more manegable however i gave them a bigger picture on what we indian girls do to our hair when we are younger. i think your black freinds have a white man mentality and need to stop being insecure because in life their is more important things then just hair. one black friend (i always mention her in here) she doesnt spend hrs on her hair she used henna treatments and cocount oil and whats the result long kinky hair she has now. black women who think like this should learn to love themselves and stop being obsess with other race hair believe me im indian and having lonk silky hair wasnt easy it took me years to grow long hair

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

They love their hair. The media doesn't like their hair...

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

WELL I CAN'T SPEAK FOR EVERYONE!... BUT I LOVE MY HAIR... I LOVE HOW I CAN HAVE IT STRAIGHT..., CURLY, WAVY, I CAN BRAID IT WITHOUT IT COMING OUT!... I LOVE HOW I CAN DO SO MANY THINGS THAT OTHER PEOPLE CAN'T!.... SO NO!

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

your black friends are idiots. they need to realize that hair is just hair and this is the way they were born and their is nothing they can do about it. i see white girls and asian girls in my school complaining about their hair. sometimes they wish they can style their hair alot like black women. tell your black friends to grow up and stop judging asians and white people hair. im black and my hair sees manageable.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

I can't answer for all Black women, only for myself.

a: the upkeep it takes to keep it straight

a: why would you want super straight hair? Then it would be lank with no body.

b: the fact that they can't wash it whenever they want or as easily as White or Asian girls can.

b: I don't know the type of people you've been conversing with but why wouldn't they be able to wash their hair whenever they'd like?

c: that they have to spend forever at the hair salon

c: I spend approx one hour in the salon. That's not forever.

d. that their hair is so dang greasy, etc.

d. They may use unnecessary products in their hair, like grease or oil. Your hair has natural oils, additional oil is not necessary.

I love my hair, whether I wear it straight or if I wash it and leave it curly.

I think a lot of Black women have a love/hate relationship with their hair. Once a lot of them realize hair does not define them, they'll be a lot better off.

And to the person who posed the question, I understand you are curious but my question is why? Why do you care either way? Hair is hair. Whether you be black, white, brown, yellow, whatever.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

I never wished I was a different race, and I never found it to be a hassle with the up keep of my hair. My hair is easy to take care of. I've been doing it myself for so long, shampoo%26amp; condition, wet set, roll it up every night. Or press and curl and roll it up every night. Sounds like some sistas are just lazy and need to start taking care of their hair better than what their doing, and they won't complain.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

No, I must say that most of the black women that I know would not like White or Asian hair. It can be washed whenever they feel and the only reason why their hair is dang greasy as you is probably because they add grease to it. Sounds like they don't take very good care of their hair.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

I'm black and I have the capabilities of wearing my hair Poker straight, wavy, curly and kinky. Anybody can do this regardless of what your race is! I can wash my hair 3times a day, once a day, once a week, or further in between if I like. (Yes I'm all Black. In case someone is wondering)As far as your friends hair being greasy, they are using too much of the right stuff, or not the right stuff!!

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

We're told not to wash it every day, because we do not produce the natural oils that other people produce. Our hair and skin can be very dry. Our hair requires extra moisture to keep it manageable. It sometimes, takes longer than an hour at the salon, because our hair is so thick and course, that it takes extra time to MANAGE and get that stuff under control.

No, we don't want white or asian hair, we just want manageable, long, healthy easy-to-do hair.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

I speak on behalf of myself growing up was hard because my hair would always be nappy (im half jamaican and black) so I used 2 wish my hair was always stait and easy to keep up, but now I am happy and content with my hair.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

I like your question. I'll be very honest with you. When I was younger, yes I did. But I don't think it was I wish I had "white or asian" hair, it was just wanting straight, bouncy hair. I like to think of it more along the lines as someone with curly hair wanting straight hair or visa-versa, not necessarily a race issue.

Now that I'm older and wiser (haha); I love my own hair. I like it best in braids and I'm no longer envious or wishing for something else. I don't have to spend forever in the salon, I do my haircare at home (except cuts) and my hair is not greasy. Just things you learn as you get older.

I think we all go thru something like that at one time or another. The key is to work with what you got!

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

lol not really for me. Its doesn't matter what race we all have hair problems some Asians may complain that even though there hair is straight it may be frizzy also or 2 limp .White girls also may have the same problem it can be frizzy wavy curly or whatever so for me I don't want or wish I had Asian hair but I do wish my hair was longer like before I had it cut because I messed my hair up with dyes and stuff.I'm learning how to take care of my hair so the salon thing I don't do unless its a major event coming up.And I kinda like not worrying about my hair when it rains lol :p

P.S. It also depends on the type of girl you may asked.We all want healthy hair I would think no matter the race.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

Well, I cant keep for every black female, but I love my hair. Some black females don't realize that we have the best hair. Caucasion hair is long but its thin because they dont have all 3 parts of the hair follicle. Some black females have a hard time maintain their hair but we have the best hair

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

unfortunenately most wish they had straight hair, that's why they straighten it and stay away from water so it wont 'go back' as they say, which is a darned shame because if they only left it alone and wore it the way God intended they could swim and not live their lives around their hair.

I stopped straightening my hair a few months ago, and i've never experienced such freedom. Afro hair is awesome, and if AA women would realize that, they wouldn't stress so much about straight hair.

Do Black women wish they had White or Asian hair?

As a black woman, I love my hair. It is easier to manage. I can wear any style I want. I have the option to get a perm or go natural. Even if I go natural and style it,%26amp; my hair will still look good and in style. I grease my scalp to keep my hair healthy, but not too greasy. You see, if you know anything about grease they have all types of grease for black hair (light grease to heavy grease). We can even put a weave in and majority of the time, one can't tell whether it belongs to us or not. We can even rock dreadlocks and depending how she maintains it, the locs will look good. We can get an updo that would last for more than a week. So you see, we as black girls and black women have many many options. If we had hair like non black folk (no offense), our ways of styling would be limited. Click link below to see how "we do" as black girls and black women.
