I must admit that while the “Good Hair” documentary by Chris Rock has not yet been released to the public, I’m glad this subject is getting some direct attention. And while I’ve only seen the trailers, promotional clips and read comments from celebrities who attended the private screening, I think this will be the national eye opener on a subject that some of our parents and grandparents have known for years.
We (consumers) need to be much more aware of products that we breathe, ingest and apply topically to our bodies. Here’s a rhetorical question for consumers who voluntarily apply chemical relaxers to their hair…
Do you really think your hair is that “nappy” that you would need a whole team of scientists, chemists and a laboratory to make it straight? Or have you just not been that educated on the subject matter and have placed all of your trust in your hairstylist/cosmetologist to take good care of your hair?
Either way, it’s now time for you to open up and begin asking more questions about products, reading labels and consider altering your cosmetic routine. You may be pleased with the results.
