Nick darling, we can do the dayum thing with our hair!!!

They need to do like Queer Eye. They should change the stylists to go with the person. I saw an episode of QE with a guy that had locs. They took him to Khamit Kinks to get his locs washed and tightened. That's what WNTW should do. That way, people of color will get appropriate styles.

I agree that they should change the stylists sometimes. Carmindy can get condescending with people who just aren't into makeup. And Nick - well, he seems a little hesitant around Af-Am hair. I'll admit, homegirl's color choice was a little extreme, but couldn't we have gone w/ some highlights, a little something to make it multi-tonal???? I think he took away some of her spark.
