The hair products black people need to use smell awful. Nobody wants to be sniffing that.

they wouldn't need them if they'd stop trying to appropriate white culture! Blacks trying to look 'anglo' is a crime to me. What's wrong with a big fuzzy hairdo anyway. It doesn't matter if you are black or white sang michael jackson (after he became mostly white)

No one loves an afro more than a white liberal person.

Of course in Africa no one has a big afro, they are a product of people having both black and white ancestry. People have hair that doesn't exist in any ancient traditional culture so they have to make up their own rules.

Racist bullshit

[–]jet199 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

Which part?

Yes, white liberals are patronising and annoying for wanting black people to fit into their idea of having cool black hair rather than having it however they like. I'm terribly racist towards rich lefty white people.

The part where you judge another person's appearance.

(No one should have to look the way you want them to look. Does it surprise you to hear this? Are you a Nazi?)

It's not "appropriation". What used to be called integration and was something to strive for so we could coexist has been rebranded with a newly made up pejorative. Stop using the divisive language of the left.

It's entirely up to the individual what he/she wants to look like. It a social crime - of sorts - to try to impose on others what they should look like.

Employers don't want natural black hair. I don't think it's all hair relaxers either, you can't wash black hair like white hair or it falls out.

[–]jet199 5 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 2 fun6 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

It doesn't fall out. It's just drier so either you have to wash it less or put a load of oil on.

I mean there's an argument that the common shampoos in the shops aren't good for anyone's hair and create the need to by more products and have more regular cuts.

Only an idiot, or a woman, would waste time and money on hair wash products. I have been using hand soap all my life and my hair is fine. I never used underarm deodorants either. In my twenties a GF gave me a can and I promptly tossed it out the window. I always worked outdoors in the heat, sweating all day, what use is antiperspirant in that situation? Decades later research points to the fact the aluminum in those cans is linked to Alzheimer's. It's all marketing bullshit, like diamond engagement rings, which are a total scam.

But I was lucky, I never owned a TV from age 18 about so my head was never filled with the lies. Everyone that watches TV thinks they have control of their mind and could not be influenced by the BILLIONS of dollars spent on advertising to suck them into buying shit they don't want or need. Other people, weak minded people sure, but not themselves.

Years later they are all up to their eyeballs in debt, all spraying their bodies day in day out with chemicals, and all lining up in the drive-through for a burger and fries with a coke and a dessert. get the Meal Deal you idiot, it will cost you more but it's better value [ For the corporation ] Buy the meal deal and pay your share of the advertising campaign that manipulated you into buying the meal deal

Oh no, not me! I just like these burgers and all the toxic ingredients, it wasn't the ads that convinced me...

Too much shampoo is def. bad for hair. I shampoo my hair as little as possible, and only at the end of a shower with the water temp lower. When those protective oils are off your hair it's a lot easier to get frizz/damaged hair. I'll often add back a little argan/jojoba oil.

Hair that's too dry can fall out. That's a problem with dry shampoos sometimes too.

Employers shouldn't be judging the hair of their employees.

Never thought about that. But yeah, a lot of black chicks do smell like pungent chemicals.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

I'd rather smell them than smell you.

[–]madcow-5 3 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 4 fun -  (3 children)

My guess is black people want nothing to do with you, just like nonblack people.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Everyone's the essentially the same, madcow.

[–]madcow-5 3 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 4 fun -  (1 child)

In that they don't want anything to do with you?

That's what I said.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

'Them', the other, you and me - all the same, essentially. It's nonetheless not known what 'they' want.

On the bright side, whatever keeps you at a distance is probably for the better.
