i think "good hair" is a phrase that needs to be erased from our vocabulary. the only way nappy = bad is when straight/wavy = good.
i was natural for about 10 years, then recently i went back to a relaxer. for me, it's just hair. i wasn't a miltant nappy, i was just comfortable enough in my own skin to rock whatever hair style (natural or relaxed) and still be fly.
the only people that had problems or questions about my hair were older people, non-blacks (your hair does that???), and a guy that i USED to talk to. LOL.
when i'm around my friends, they know there are certain words or descriptors that won't ride with me. if someone has straight hair SAY straight hair. it's not "good" or better than mine! just as i won't tolerate n-words and so forth, "good hair" is one of those things that should be avoided.
