What is with this trend of telling women with natural hair how to make their hair look less black, i.e looser curls.
 
It seems like she said something about the cuticle being "gently" lifted in the beginning. Is this a chemical? I don't mind moisture I just don't want something that will permanently alter my hair texture.

The same trend that's been going on since they brought slaves to America.

I mean, I relax because it's easier but I'm not going to say that the person who invented it did it so our hair would be "easier". It's probably more so it would be "less black".

I think we retain the "Blackness" or "texture" in our hair even when we do chemical treatments. The chemicals just make it more manageable for some ladies. My natural hair is work, my relaxed hair was work and my now mildy keratin treated hair is work but at least it doesn't poof after I straighten it. The truth is thick, textured, kinky, kinky - curly, and curly hair is work! It's all good though, the best thing is learning how to work with it. It's like White folks skin is work, burns, wrinkles, gotta go through hell and spray paint tans for color. Weird analogy but it's work to for them not to look like walking corpses!
