I have heard many debates on this topic as well. Me personally, I feel that hair is just hair and one should feel free to alter it just as people wear makeup, shave their legs, etc. However, I do understand the other view of the topic--that some women are dependent upon relaxers. In a conversation with a group I was in, one woman posed this question, if relaxers were proven to cause cancer(or some other disease) how many women do you think would rather take the risks than allow their hair to be natural? It really made me think...
