[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] Please show me any group of blacks anywhere on the planet outside those with naturally straight hair who ever treated their hair to make it look like this: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Prsjt.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/RKFW4.jpg[/IMG] Those aren't even close to this: [IMG]http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5311/5907960059_53e818f346_z.jpg[/IMG] http://www.flickr.com/photos/carsten_tb/5907960059/in/set-72157627129389380/ [IMG]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2630/3714972980_c9c91e9b1d_z.jpg[/IMG] http://www.flickr.com/photos/historian77/3714972980/ But also note that their hair is somewhat straight to begin with. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-textured_hair The only group I can say that has done this to some degree that I know of is the Fulani: [IMG]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2404/5813365631_8c67c09fbb_z.jpg[/IMG] http://www.flickr.com/photos/53529808@N06/5813365631/ And note the comment from the flickr page: [QUOTE] Many black women all over the world sew, braid and glue fake hair to their real hair. Many hide their textured curls by putting chemicals and heat mechanisms to enable hair to stay down. Recently, a friend of mine began to feel ashamed of her dependence on synthetic hair. She thought that she was subconsciously trying to make herself look more European, and that this was a bad thing. As I tried to convince her to ignore her worries, I showed her pictures of Fulani women who have using foreign objects in their hair to adorn themselves for centuries. This was proof that just because a black woman changes her hair texture, color or style, this does not necessarily mean that she is trying mimicking European hair. [/QUOTE]And my only comment is that the processes used by the ancient Egyptians(shaved heads/wigs), Africans (braiding, natural treatments) and others is that they weren't destroying their hair by using chemicals and burning to achieve their hairstyles. They used [b]natural[/b] processes to achieve those looks. That is totally the opposite of the destructive methods African Americans have been using since the times of C. J. Walker and maybe even before. There is no proof that Fulani women's hair is being destroyed by these hairstyles and many Fulani have straighter hair to begin with.

Straight hair for people with naturally curly hair is only 100 years old. It isn't some ancient Egyptian recipe. Sorry. This is strictly an African American development: [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/AMHS-10.jpg/800px-AMHS-10.jpg[/IMG] http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:AMHS-10.jpg Especially when their hair naturally looks like this: [IMG]http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6131/5916566066_a850f9f0f5_z.jpg[/IMG] http://www.flickr.com/photos/unpleasantpheasant/5916566066/in/photostream [/QB][/QUOTE]
