Have you ever received any negative comments about your hair? How did you respond?
Toccara: I remember posting pictures on social media and instantly the men in my friendship circle were in shock. My hair at one point laid on my shoulders, and it had this beautiful natural auburn color. They couldn’t understand why I would cut it all off.
Also, after growing my hair to what I felt like was a great length (it had some bounce to it when the wind was blowing”>, I sent my sister a message showing her my progress. I don’t think I will ever forget that day. There was so much hate in the message: “Your hair is so nappy, men do not like nappy hair, ect.” At a time when I wanted to share a part of my growth with her, I only received a closet of snippet nastiness. That conversation changed me for the better.
