Black Mums Upfront

18. Becky with the Good Hair

Kinky, curly, nappy, frizzy, tough, wild. Good, bad, straight, natural, processed, difficult. Black women and our hair.  It seems like everyone has an opinion. But why is Afro hair such a hot topic? Is society trying to police our blackness through policing our hair? Are we now policing each other as Black women? Or should we just keep our hair on cos it really ain’t that deep? This episode we comb through the micro-aggressions that we’ve all experienced and dig deep into our own thoughts, feelings and hair hang ups. This episode is proudly part of Dove’s Crowning Glory campaign. And no, you can’t touch it. Ever. 💁🏾‍♀️ www.blackmumsupfront.com⁣ Hosts:⁣ <a href="https://instagram.com/blackmumsupfront?igshid=1jmjse3vkkxf8">https://instagram.com/blackmumsupfront</a> <a href="https://instagram.com/brownstown29?igshid=1w39m6z13wpfk">https://instagram.com/brownstown29</a> <a href="https://instagram.com/nanaadwoambeutcha?igshid=2h6z42y71sc3">https://instagram.com/nanaadwoambeutcha</a> <a href="https://instagram.com/natsduv?igshid=1gx9ayoe9a956">https://instagram.com/natsduv</a> <a href="https://instagram.com/from_the_endz?igshid=kmjai53u2u1b">https://instagram.com/from_the_endz</a>
