I hate the question “what’s my hair type” so much
Post Body

I hate hate hate reading posts where people are asking if they have 4c or 4b or whatever because it often comes from a someone who’s s been told that the hair type (usually 4c) isn’t desirable and wishing that someone would see them as having a hair type more often associated with desirability (4b or higher) Obviously people ask this question looking for help too but it it far too often feels like a cry for validation imo. It makes me so sad cause I remember when I used to get told how ugly and unmanageable my hair was and that “you should just get a buzz cut, it looks more presentable “. The worst part about it is that these ridiculous comments usually come from other black people! I love black hair so much I just wish that the people who ask this question saw the beauty in their hair. I hope I didn’t offend anyone.

We banned the question in r/naturalhair, let me know if we should do the same here
