Sheryl Underwood Comments About "Nasty Nappy Afro Hair"

5/9/2013

 
Picture
I've only just watched this video. When I heard about it I thought it's possible that people may have taken Sheryl's comments out of context, you know, with her being a comedian and everything; however, after watching it I think she was not only stupid by perpetuating "afro hate" but she might actually believe what she said.

If you don't want to watch the video this is the gist of it:

Sharon Osbourne talks about how Heidi Klum ziplocks her kids' afros when she cuts their hair because she doesn't want to throw the hair away.

Sheryl Underwood says "who would wanna keep afro hair?"

The other host throws her life line and says, "you know, some parents like to keep their kids' first hair for memory's sake".

Sheryl Underwood digs an even bigger hole for herself and says, "Well your kids have nice silky hair - but afro hair...now that's just nasty"!

What do you think about all of this? Okay or plain stupidity? Importantly, now that she's apologised, do you forgive her?

The Comprehensive Conditioner Coverage Method Defined

2/9/2013

 
Picture
My hair doesn't grow as fast or as well in the middle of the head and in the general crown area. I've always thought it's because I sleep on that part of the head a lot, however, that might not be the reason.

According to The Science of Black Hair by Audrey Davis Sivasothy it's common for people not to condition these areas of the head adequately because they are harder to reach.

The solution? The Comprehensive Conditioner Coverage Method.

Under the Comprehensive Conditioner Coverage Method conditioner is applied to hair a little like a relaxer would be:
  • First, the hair is sectioned into 4 or 6 areas
  • Then each section is saturated with conditioner from the root all the way to the tip
In this way hair is fully saturated with conditioner and you don't miss a spot.

I don't actually use this method for conditioner application but going forward I plan on consciously ensuring full coverage of conditioner especially in that region.

I think the CCC method is a little too mathematical for me but it does get the general point through, that is, when you apply conditioner make sure it's been applied everywhere.

As always, when you do your weekly deep condition cover your hair in a shower cap; blow dry over the surface for a couple of minutes for faster absorption. 15 to 30 minutes should be enough for your hair to soften.
