that's cause folks don't pick up a ***ing book and listen to what everyone else says. it's a little tiring when folks try to talk about what the "average black" person's hair looks like when they never crack open a book, much less travel outside of the country or hell, even been to africa.

go travel the world, see some new sh*t or hell even talk to someone that's seen some things.

Tiring as it may be, the average black person (a negroid black person) does indeed have nappy hair. I don't see how one could even attempt to refute this. The Fulani ,Somalis, Ethiopians e.t.c may be considered black but they are not Negroid. My parents are West African and I've been there myself, so I'm more than familiar with the various African tribes and physical appearances. If I were to take a random cross-section of black people, I'd say 80-90% would have type 4 hair.

You seem to be confusing 'average' with 'all'. I take average to mean most frequently occurring and type 4 hair is average for blacks. If this was not the case the ubiquitous 'good hair vs bad hair' debate would never have even begun. If this isn't the case then why do we have this message board? Why do so many with BSL and beyond on here get weave checked, subjected to heavy scrutiny and 'ignant' questioning?

The truth is no amount of education can take precedence over what one observes with their very eyes.

It just kills me that if you have an opposing opinion, all of a sudden you're a hater, jealous, 'conditioned by the west' and ignorant. Really??
 
Oh My...she is too gorgeous for words!!!! That is a Beautiful smile on that baby with a beautiful full head of equally gorgeous hair! What's her momma's reggie for all that hair because by the way my two year old's hair is growing her hair will be that long when she's her age and I'm scared!!!

There are plenty of people of direct African descent with type 2-3 hair texture (From West African Hausas and Fulanis to East African Amharas and Oromos). You're talking about the most diverse continent and people on the planet- every phenotype that exists will be represented within that population. Furthermore, most black people within recent generations have no clue as to their natural hair type due to being relaxed from age 4. I just knew the majority of my hair was type 4a/b when I went natural when it turned out that it wasn't.

Regardless, her hair is still quite beautiful...even if to some people it is an anomaly

My mom is Darker than, her with type 2 hair. african american.. my Dad is light african american with 4b hair
 
Pfft my hair is that long too...right now its just tucked under at the nape and when its tucked under my nape its APL. Lol. OMG!!!! That is jaw dropping. God bless this beautiful child.
 
Is it me or is it jealousy?? Some of these comments are down right rude,ignorant and comical! Who are you to say that someones hair is to long,short etc. if long hair is not for you, then keep your comments to yourself. This is a happy and beautiful child. Let us just encourage and uplift one another!! Gee Wiz!!
 
Girl has gorgeous hair!!!

It's funny how some folks on here make threads about how they were asked if they were mixed with something or if their hair was a weave, wig, etc. because it was long and beautiful, etc. and how it offended them or even went into the stereotype of bw and long/short hair, yet some women are turning around and doing the same thing to this little girl.

It comes from within the community, I tell ya.

Asking about someone's heritage is neither a compliment or an insult- it is what it is.
The problem comes in when people try to act as if they are offended cause someone thinks they are mixed.:look: A lot of people on this board project their views on others, and in my case, they couldn't be further from my beliefs.

eta: with regards to earlier comments that may be viewed in a negative light, I never once said anything mean or hurtful about the little girl and still think she's adorable. No jealousy whatsoever.

There have been threads made on here made by posters being asked by folks what is their heritage since their hair is so long, etc. because we all know plain african folks can't grow hair, so yes, to some the question can be seen as an insult.:rolleyes:

I'm just saying the same comments made towards this girl are the same ones that posters have made threads about.

:yep::yep: it's the implication and perpetuation of a stereotype that is the problem. Asking someone their background BECAUSE they have long/beautiful hair is the same as saying, " your KIND don't have hair like that, so what 'other' race GAVE it to you". Not cool:nono:. I do think it's unconcious though and people don't understand what they are implying.
 
^^^^
It wasn't even the hair though that made me think she could have mixed heritage. I get that there is that stereotype that you have to be mixed in order to have long/beautiful hair and i abhore it. But can't someone ask if they genuinally believe the person is mixed? We all have some degree of hair knowledge with us being on this board and I think it would be highly unlikely that any of us think that black hair doesn't/won't grow. Most of us had mbl+ hair as children so we know for a fact. I'm just surprised why everyone acts as if this so regular. Clearly it isn't, otherwise we wouldn't all be drooling over the pics.
 
OMG! My first thought was that she looks like a little princess. What beautiful hair on this beautiful little girl.
 
Wow her hair is super gorgeous :lick: Either that or she has on a super banging lace front :pinocchio:. Lol j/k. She is so beautiful. Her hair shoo looks nice now but come wash day :angeldevil: ....
