Oh okay... For real... For real huh? Some of y'all are just going to act like her comment wasn't ignorant... And that it isn't a sign of the "good hair syndrome" Oh... Okay....

How about now?

Is it just "Oooooo she's just enjoying her hair. Leave her alone"

"You're being a hair snob"

......Yeah.... Uh huh... Now can we see what's wrong with this statement?

I guess I had to make it a little bit more clear for some of y'all.... Or in this case... LIGHTER

If her hair actually looked straight/cooli then I would say it was part of the good hair syndrome, but it was obvious that she had "nappy" roots and pre-relaxed ends. I think the comment was more like "here is the real me".. new growth and all.

@~Sparklingflame~

basicelly what had happened was

gabby posted pix of her hair

some people loved it some people were not that impressed

i didnt like the way she insulted my hot comb and threw a tantrum.

others joined in and then there was an ostrich

then others took gabbies hair too personally and felt the need to defend her to the death

i jumped on a couch

then people kept talking about length when it was all about the hot comb

then things got boring and i threw up the deuces so i could go plant my bamboo

but now i dont want to plant my bamboo so i'm typing this

Then why say no relaxer? I hate when women who haven't had a perm in a couple month say they don't have a perm..
 
I think she's just posting her hair pictures with what ever comments she wants...Just like we do on this board. More power to you Gabby!!!

Her hair looks nice.

I know we are LHCF and all but let's stop fronting like everyone here are repunzels especially when your hair is just as short and/or thin...Tis all.

Cause one thanks wasn't enough! :yep: I can't believe the cattyness about her simply posting a pic and commenting about her natural hair. She didn't say her hair was super long, was better than anybody's hair nor was she belittling anyone when she made the statement about not having a weave, not using hot combs, or relaxer. Maybe people have asked her those questios regarding her hair and she wanted to put it out there? Maybe she just wanted to show that she's not bald headed like many people may think? Maybe she's excited about the length she's retained? Some of you are so ready to jump to negative conclusions :rolleyes:

If everyone in this forum had super thick, BSL and over hair, there wouldn't be a SL challenge going on right now! :giggle:

Some of you need to chill out...why it always got to be about you? Let her be happy about her hair and you can worry about yours and how you want your hair to look.
 
Hahahaha so Gaby's pics got on Black Voices...peep the first comment.

Gabrrielle is a very BEAUTIFUL woman she has a very pretty face.She would even be pretty is she dose go bold she dont need all that fake hair any ways she is mixed with Indian you can tell by her eyes and high cheek bones she has indian in her.And also she has good hair if she was just black she would it have good grad hair that she dose and full black girls hair can't grow that long with out it breaking off.Iam not being racisted because iam mixed with black my self but i have good hair like gab's hair except my hair is curly i do straten it time to time.But any ways i say she should cut it all off its justhair it will grow back because its REAL hair not fake [lol]

^^ Whoever posted that sounds like a troll, but I have to assume it's a real person because of gems like "racisted" and "straten." And what's up with not using spaces after punctuation? I see it more and more on the board mostly and it makes my skin crawl. I don't know how people go from double spaces, to single, and now none... what's next? no punctuation at all? smh.
 
Sounds like it isn't that deep. She didn't use a hot comb - she used a flat iron. No biggie.

AHeadOfCoils said:
As much as I like Gabby and am happy to know that she's not bald, I'm confused. :perplexed So what's her point? That she got her hair washed and it magically was that straight? I see a flat iron. :look:

My first reaction when I saw Gabby's pics was oh wow, she has hair! yay!...Then it went to well... it aint all that i've seen better on the boards!...But then I really had to think and take in what she had done with this twitter post. Gabrielle Union is an African American woman who is in the public eye most of the time, everything she decides to do with herself is displayed in front of millions, and the pressures she faces when it comes to her hair, must be something we all can never even begin to know how it feels like. For her to have the courage to obviously post pics of her hair, without a weave, be relaxer free, and be healthy is beyond impressive. I'm impressed because we don't know her hair journey, and what Gabby is doing is sharing with the world a little of her own personal hair story. GO n get it gurl!..She obviously is proud of her progress, and so should we!...after seeing her short style in 2008 pics, she has gotten great results! koodos to Gabby..

P.S...maybe this means she'll get enough courage to wear it in it's natural state...this was a big step for her.. I can tell...Lets congratulate!!!
 
Ahem, the Beyonce Gif is from the music Vid For Jay's Song December 4th. She did it as a bday gift, and she is " Jay-Z" the whole vid. lol the part with her freestyle was hilarious.
 
Nice pics! She and her hair look lovely. :yep:

PraisedBeauty said:
Exactly. Like Gabby what is your point anyway? Anyhow. I bet you in a year from now she'll be SL. She'll probably get all excited with her progress and start doing wash and goes every other day because she has that good hair because... she doesn't need a relaxer, hot comb, etc. Gabby needs to join LHCF and humble herself when it comes to hair. Anyhow. Despite her home wrecking ways... I have no beef with her. I think she is pretty. I like her dimples. And her skin. I do like that she is representing for black women.. But that caption and that twit pic was alllll too unnecessary.

She could just be saying that you can get that length and look without weaving, relaxing, using the hot comb. I dunno...guess I just don't feel it necessary to assume the worst.

i think a lot of people are mistaken and getting butt hurt over nothing, taking "insults" to gabby as insults to them self

now i dont know if any of these comments were towards me, but i have no hate for gabby and have no issue with her celebrating her hair. in fact i love it.

but the comment about "no hot comb"... that bothers me. it does because i want to know where is she getting at by saying that. if she said "no perm, no heat" then what ever baby, you got a great blow out.

but what'chu got against hot combs?!?!? they just as bad as a flat iron can be.

WHAT'S YOUR BEEF WITH HOT COMBS?!?!? TELL ME WHATS THE BEEF ABOUT!!!! I WANT TO KNOW!!!!

Don't plenty people dislike having to use hot combs? So why can't she be saying "no hot comb" meaning that you don't have to use one to achieve the look...

Her hair looks great! She is obviously very proud of her progress and wanted to share that with her fans.


I don't understand why are we so quick to slam each other or pick each other's words apart?
 
I'm happy to see she took care of her hair while wearing weaves. Its sad to be in the salon and see girls that are addicted to weave take the weave out and see that their natural hair is only in a decent state for them to leave out their crown and sides for the weave and the rest is damaged, stringy, brittle and neglected.

When she says "no relaxer" I'm thinking she means that she hasn't had a touch up. A lot of women will say they don't have a relaxer if they haven't had one on awhile...as for her hair overall, it's ok...as long as she's happy with it and I'm sure many women were impressed
