I can't believe we still say things like this. Mind you there is a difference between hair that is maintained and hair that is wild and unkempt, but that does not necessarily mean permed v. natural hair. I assume that you do not dig the natural texture of African American hair. That is a shame, a huge shame. I hope you understand that on some level this measures as self-hate. I'm not saying that every style fits every person, but the fact that you feel that natural hair is unacceptable should be reviewed.
