I had the same comment recently about ANTM - America’s Next Top Model.

It’s sad that we are frowned upon for wearing what natrually grows from our heads.

I wonder if they would eject a competitor from the competition if they refused to sacrifice their curls…

I’m not black but I totally agree! I think it’s racist and offensive that Hollywood and the mainstream beauty industry continue to propagate the tired old “straighter is better” beauty standard. Give it a rest already, America!

This is BS! I’m tired of black, female celebrities sporting 10 lbs. of weave just to appeal to a wider audience. Why can’t we just be accepted for who we are? We are black people and this is the type of hair god gave us.

If more black women refused to get weaves or straighten their hair then kinky/curly hair textures would become more acceptable.
