Few things bring me as much joy as seeing black women reject eurocentric beauty standards and messaging around our hair. I love seeing black women putting down those damn wigs and taking care of our own. Short, long, locked, braided, twisted, doesn't matter. I think it's beautiful, and even if others don't, we don't have to perform socially acceptable beauty to move through this world. Makes me so happy.
Anyway, here are a few samples of my favourite natural hairstyles.
