For all the daddies that love natural hair.
All the little heads beneath it love you back.

Loc Journey - where to begin
My smart, motivated, responsible and attractive friend Mimi is seriously considering a loc journey. She asked me for advice and alas I had none because I'm a loose natural and always have been. Loc'ed ladies do you have any advice to help her get started?

Does V05 love us back?
I was pondering my ( and many other naturals ) love for the V05 line of conditioners. They have many positive points:
-affordable
-variety of scents
-add sufficient slip for detangling
-easily found in a variety of stores
-great base if you want to add your own ingredients
BUT at this point should the Alberto-Culver company be marketing to us. I know of countless articles, blog post and YT videos that sing its praises. I visited their website here and not only did not see any women of color but also no hair of texture.
This is the only model featured on the site.
I guess I'm thing how even some of the larger companies have tried lame and unconvincing marketing ploy to attract women with natural hair.
Pantene
Palmers
I may be over thinking this but I just thought I'd share.

Really Black Men? You don't like Natural Hair or Lace Fronts what do you like!!??
I agree with some of the points in this video but WHY did she have to start by "classically" letting everyone know that although she wears weaves and lace fronts she REALLY does have hair.
In my opinion, it detracts from her credibility. You are questioning why black men are so worried about your hair but you use a full two minutes to let strangers know that you have long hair under your wig. That is why men care, they were raised by women like you.
What do you think ladies?
