I remember two things as a child that began my hair obsession. Aside from my mom and her thick APL hair these are the two pics that stand out in my mind that made me say as a child.. "I want my hair to look like that" :grin::grin:

What is your childhood hair inspiration?

well Rudy Huxtable is kinda my hair inspiration right now. Remember on some of the episodes when she was older and she would wear it out and it was REALLY big? yea that's what I want

but when I was younger I loved me some Ashley Banks hair.
 
Well, as a young teen...when Aaliyah came out, I thought she had the coolest hair ever!
 
well, I'd have to say Keisha Knight Pullam as well! :yep: Also during my teens it was Tatyanna Ali and Tia and Tamara Rowley.
 
LOL!!!!!!!! I remember being 8 wanting long luxurious hair. Even though I was still climbing trees and playing with my dogs lol

I totally forgot aobut Ashley! She had gorgeous hair! I was also looking for that pic of Rudy's hair out in a big pouf...couldn't find it :look:
 
Nobody for me, I never really thought about my hair at all I had two future stylists for sisters and a mom who did a killa perm "no burns" so I always had a good length "past sl" and new styles. Oh the good ole days lol
 
Now a days I'd love to have rudy's or ashley's hair, how about a combo rudy's hair thickness and volume and ashley's lovely texture.

200 brothers/sisters! You are too funny! And they all looked aliked too LOL! Her hair was and still is gorgeous!:lick::lick:
 
My Mama Loved her some Prince, so Purple Rain, Under the cherry Moon, grafiti bridge and all the like were movies I watched over and over as a kid with my 2 sisters and our butt length hair on wash days--- That was alot of hair, no wonder my mom shaved hers off lol...
But all of prince's ladies were hair inspirations for us... We wanted to wear our hair out so bad. So my mom made one compromise style which was the appotunia, a high bun with some natural curly tendrils which was as close to grown up as we could get...

When I was a young kid.. I was all about my black barbies. So I guess their hair?..

Middle school- Ashley Banks (Tatiyana Ali)
 
Yes Prince always had the ladies with the hottest hair! I guess he thought their hair has to look better than his! Even the chick with the short hair style on Graffiti Bridge was gorgeous :)
 
My inspiration was a girl in my infant and junior class called Rachel. She had hair just like Rudy Huxtable.

Whenever I dream how I would like my hair to look like, I always picture Rachels
 
oh... And my teens was Amel Larrieux.. i rocked that bun HARD... thats why my hair was long with a relaxer I think during that time... Always wore my hair like this
