He's gay, right?

This cat said hair like "carpet". Imma have to use that in my future hair descriptions.
Poor guy, all he did was come in with a question about how to maintain his hair. And now his sexuality is being questioned? Does it really even matter? This is a hair board where everyone is welcome. Can we leave the judgement behind?

Somehow, I really didn't think she was questioning his sexuality in a negative way or being judgmental. She may not have read the thread and didn't realize he'd already answered the question.

And anyway, I don't think her question, if it was judgmental, is any worse than people coming in with no answer to his question just to comment on his looks.
 
I agree with sl that newbie previously using certain terms is being wayyyyyyyy overlooked by some. Women have been roasted on here for saying they or their daughters had "mixed" hair or "nappy" hair. Roasted.

Op says it and ...nada. :look:

Y'all ain't right.
 
welcome to the board :bighug: Have you tried using SCurl? Works for me...but my hair is already "nappy". Oh! what about that pomade for men by black majic? Or some wave cream. I bet some good ol' grease would do the trick...:hide:

You know beautiful people can get away with anything. Rhianna wears pasties out to the club and folks talk about how cute and sexy it is. When strippers do it, it's nasty and stank.

That's just the way life is.

Nope. I was genuinely asking. I clicked into a previous page and someone asked. All the other dudes on here are gay.

And, just like others, I am always curious why someone would pay to join a board that is clearly not intended for them.

ETA: And, since when is it judgemental to ask if someone is gay? Captain Sav-a-Newbie.
 
OMG this thread was only 3 pages long when I first saw it, now, :lachen: You ladies crack me up.

Welcome to the boards BHJ867!! :)
 
nope 100% straight. dead serious on that one. I just had a hair problem. I could have just buzzed it off permanently like many other dudes I know, but no man straight or gay likes a big *** 5-head like mine shining around. I think we are nearing the dawn of a new age wear straight men aren't afraid to ask cosmetic questions without being looked on as "feminine". Cause I'm bone straight baby. I play basketball, baseball, drive a fast car and all. lol

Ok thanks! You are a cutie. I bet you'd look good with a baldie too. Alot of the way your hair curls when it is short has to do with the way you cut it. Go to a black barber shop and see if they can help you. Sometimes, they can cut it backwards.

ETA: If Jon B. can get "carpet" hair, so can you. :yep:

Wow, so women can't appreciate good looking men? Hmmm... I'm a member on a few sports forums and the population is like 99% male. Whenever a female joins they are on her, especially if she posts a picture and she's attractive. No different here. All of this over analyzing the situation reminds me of why I prefer the company of men.

LOL at the visual on THAT ONE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHa!!!
OMG I have just been watching this thread grow and grow. I have NEVER seen such responses and I have to say I have been throughly entertained.

Welcome! :)

I find nothing wrong with a man asking cosmetic questions. I wish more men would because i have seen too many men walking around with ashy skin, raggedy nails, crusty feet, and dryyyyyyyyyyyyyy hair.

Better to ask and look good, than to walk around looking a hot mess. :yep:

Oh....and I love baking soda. it is good to clarify hair, whiten teeth, exfoliate skin, scrub pots, brighten clothes, freshen carpet, etc. It is a staple!!!

...and I can't believe your parents flat ironed your hair as a little boy. :ohwell::nono:
 
You would be surprised how many questions I have gotten in my PM box. I feel like a celebrity or something. It's bizarre haha.

but yea my mom and dad did that to my hair. I don't know what they were thinking. My dad wanted me to have that "Good" hair I guess and instead it made me look like the wierd looking mixed boy with straight hair in grade school.
 
Welcome bhj867!! :wave:

Yea, I found that interesting. What made you want to accept your curls now?
 
hainging out with more of my black friends and family as of recent. Getting in touch with my african roots a little more. IDK. I just find that a piece of me has been missing.

How does you dad feel about you going natural? What did you mom say?

Wow, this started out as a funny thread, but goodness...your issue really touches my heart.

It is so sad to see, but usually, in the African American community we tend to run away from all things that are "Black"-- things that make us unique and thus so very beautiful...our hair is one of these bigger issues. To see you actually want to embrace what we tend to run from is amazing.

They are both cool with it. Since Ive grown my hair out this last time my dad was a little hesitant and then said stuttering, "Wow . . . you're hair has never been that curly." and that's all he said.

My mom said, "OH MY GOD IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! I ENVY YOU! WHERE DID ALL THOSE CURLS COME FROM?" like they don't remember. :ohwell:

but from what I can tell by pictures my parents hair straightening venture starting around age 5. :sad: Which is ironically the same year my little brother was born, 1992. And he is white (blonde hair and blue eyes). My half brother. My parents kept the name of his real father from him until last year when they finally broke down and told him. This is the earliest picture of me at 5 years old with straightened hair I could find. everything before this is naps.

I don't see why. African hair/heritage is beautiful. I feel a bond with my black friends and family this past year more than anytime in my life. Mainly because I have been around them more. I was a VERY sheltered child to say the least.

I was never told to "hate" my black side. I never ran away from it, I just was never exposed to it. and that was my parents choice, not mine.
