Lol no our hair is just harder to maintain, unlike every other race who have similar hair. We can't blowdry everyday and not get heat damage, we can't shampoo like a crazy person in the shower and not expect a wild mess, we can't straighten our hair and expect it not to look like captain caveman when the rain wets it the list is endless but I am happy to say more and more black people are starting to enjoy the versatility of their hair regardless of what society/media calls beautiful

we call it shrinkage.Basically when you're 100% natural (no chemical straightener/relaxer) since our hair is the tightest curl, when it's wet it shrinks. Someone that looks ear lenght hair can actually be mid back lenght if hair is stretched by blowdrying, or other methods like this. Couldn't find a better one

another good example of shrinkage. You see this one stretch as she flat irons.

Sorry to disrupt your thread.


Using gel then using spray is the way to go, as per my white male friends.
