How important is a woman’s hair to you? Especially if you are dating her, does she have to wear her hair a certain way to keep grab your interest? Important but not strongly the main factor of our relationship, I have dated both natural & weave – me personally I’m more attracted to a woman that can wear her hair at any length & texture and be proud of it; whether it is a ponytail, dreads, short, long or even bald. Long as she is not ashamed to wear that particular style.
Do you think that there is a ‘Natural Hair Movement’ or trend going on these days? Why do you think so many women are choosing to go natural now, do you think it’s a fad?
There is definitely a movement, I see the seminar flyers of awareness and I think that is strongly needed as advertisements & commercials tend to sway a certain way when it comes to glamour, I find it very beneficial to reach out to those that are not necessarily “media typical.”
Would you support your partner or family members (i.e. mother, sister, daughter) if she decided to become natural?
Of course - naturally I’m always supportive for anyone that is close to me but particularly my family and any decision they choose - I support 100percent; even if it’s taking your hair out and wearing an afro for the day.
How important is hair texture to you? If your significant other were to go natural, would the texture of her hair affect your opinions on whether she should remain natural or not?
Hair texture is not a main factor - more so the upkeep of your hair matters to me - I know because I grew up with all woman and I know how a bathroom closet looks with all the products so if maintenance is key with her and her hair then that’s cool with me
What is your definition of “Good Hair” and how do you feel about the word “Nappy?”
Good hair should be used in the sense of a woman knowing she is beautiful in any type hair format. It’s the confidence in a woman that I find attractive and what I think she be considered as good hair - not just the look. The nappy may be touchy for some as it can hold the same weight as calling someone a racial slur, some woman may take it kind of serious.
Would you rather your partner wear their hair natural or weaved?
Honestly natural because at the end of the day weave has to be taken out & your left with your “natural” hair - it’s the embrace that most
Most have a hard time adjusting too - appealing to others is kind of way I look at it. Not knocking any woman that wear weaves - but honestly when you go home and it’s just you - the weave comes off like a mask - used to cover up
If you are involved with a woman do you think she should consult with you when it comes to making changes to her hair?
Yes & no because that’s her choice not mine but if it’s a type of relationship where values are acknowledged then it don’t hurt to consult with your spouse, just like if a woman falls in love with a guy with dreads and that’s what she finds attracted and then one day he decides to cut off his hair to bald, I’m sure she would feel a certain way if he did it without checking with her.
Why does it seem like some men are “hung up” on hair length? Does it matter to you?
Does not to me, but I think it just goes with the security of a man, most men look at woman as trophies, ( sad to say ) and in addition a woman with hair that is mainly portrayed in mainstream media as the perfect kind of hair , he would look as the prized possession - not labeling but for some guys, they depths of shallowness can go really deep depending on what he perceives as beauty.
Would you be supportive in your partner’s journey to go natural?
Without a doubt, whether she chooses to chop it off - start from scratch or just add on, I would support my partner’s decision 200 percent. For better or hope not too worse - Ha
What makes black women and their hair unique and beautiful to you?
When knowing when a woman is confident with it. Whatever hairstyle may be - far as details, I can’t get specific on the different hairstyles and proper terminology but confidence makes a person
Who is your favorite “curly girl?” (i.e. celebrity, actress, friend, ect.)
I won’t say any specific names but a particular lady in my life that I feel is beyond sexy with any hairstyle she wears, whether it be natural or weave or whatever, even if her hair looked like the top of a pineapple, Ha, she would still be my favorite curly girl
