I have been looking around for someone to do me some commentary on black hair and the relationship that black women have with their hair. No one has stepped forward so I’ll just go ahead and kick the question off. Does it matter how you wear your hair? There has been for some time this debate about natural, relaxed, weave or whatever. should a black woman wear her hair in an Afro or should she use her economic wealth to purchase any style she chooses.

If she does choose to relax her hair is this pandering to the White led fashion industry, is it selling out?  Or is this whole conversation out of date now? Let me know what you think Ladies. Men too, feel free to chip in.
