I definitely disagree. I am natural and my regimen is very simple. I cowash every morning and wear a wash and go. I don't even bother using any styling products. I detangle once a week out of habit. I have no issues with excessive tangles and knots...
I should have qualified my statement with 'some' b/c I def. don't mean 'all.'
I don't know, I just find it peculiar that out of all the races of women, we're the ones who are:
a) Obsessed with knowing if it is going to rain or be humid, b/c it'll "mess up" our hair styles (this goes for naturals and relaxed who style their hair in non-bunned styles).
b) Try to plan our workout days around our wash days, b/c we may not have time in btw. to style our hair how we like after our workouts.
c) Spend more money than any other group of women on haircare products.
I don't think education, techniques, special sauce, etc. will ever make my 4a/4b hair (natural or otherwise) that easy to maintain as some of the White and Asian girls I know. Nor do I know why it seems like it's an LHCF principle to maintain that "Nah, we all have our problems and everyone's hair is just as hard" as if to justify our obsession with haircare maintenance and PJism. LOL.
