Just because I'm a 3b, my advise doesn't matter??? RANT!

[Ms Lala]

So, I have a cosmetology license, right, so I try to give advice to another person who is going natural. Well I have 3b hair and hers is more 4a/4b. I tried to tell her if you want to retain length, use moisture, moisture, moisture and ps as much as she can...she looked at me crazy and said "well it's easy for you, you don't have nappy hair!" I was taken back because just because I have a looser curl doesn't mean I don't fight daily with my hair just to get it to curl right or lie flat!!! I think some women think that people with a looser curl have no say so, or can't complain just because they have "good hair"!! Like wth! EVERYONE can have "good hair" when it's healthy!!!! Sorry, I'm done. Sheesh...

My hair is kinky 4a/b and I have had people tell me the same thing. "Oh you got that good grade of hair so you can grow it long." For some people that line is just an excuse.

i understand what you mean. im a 4B i'd say (maybe tiny parts of a??) and my sister is a 3B-C. but she struggles just like me to try to retain length. Asks me a lot of advice (im more into the hair stuff) but gives me her ideas too. so exchanging no matter what the hair type is will always help. If the person you advice doesn't wanna listen ,let her learn alone by her own mistakes and then get it that moisture is the thing no matter the difference of your hair types. just take care of yours ,i know its fustrating but.... keep up you thing
