Allure magazine finds itself in the middle of a stormy response to a hair tutorial published in its August 2015 issue titled, “You (Yes, You) Can Have An Afro.*” The asterisk reads: “even if you have straight hair.”

I was told my grandmother had hair so long it reached her knees. I was told her hair was so thick and curly that after it was washed it took two women to detangle it and spread it out to dry. I was told that when it was tied up my grandmother’s head would tilt backwards due to the weight of her hair which is why I envisioned my grandmother spending most of her long haired youth staring at the ceiling. Each time I was told the story of my grandmother’s hair, the hair grew longer and longer within the story until it touched the ground and the last time I heard the story I remember I was told that it trailed behind her on the floor.
