Unfortunately down souf!!! (SOUTH)
Much of the natural look is still not in!
When I left MN....everybody was freakin' a natural look...GREEKs were on the forefront of that...AKAs and Deltas were famous for locks, twists, fros, and braids...
It just seems that in the GREAT ATL. You will only find conscious (afrocentric) women and men sporting these styles (although cornrows are making a "come up")
Many women (and men too) are relaxing are texturizing their hair b/c they think thats the best way to look...AND Brothers here only want to date Long-haired sisters (no matter their personality)
one of my friends who is an AKA (who sports a short natural cut) was told that her hair was too short (to be an AKA) by some people who weren't even in a sorority!
I'm hoping the south as a whole will move from this pathetic view about "nappy" hair...
I'm happy to be nappy!!!
I am,
