You dont have hair like a white girl?" I have had a relaxer since the age of two and my hair did not start to grow until my stylist helped me to reduce the frequency of my relaxers in addition to trying to get me to go natural. So I was kind of upset about waht she said. Apparently she says "Your (my) hair is just nappy and since you do not have hair like a white girl you porbably will not be able to stand it long enough to go completely natural anyway". I got no support from her at all. But I see what my natural curls are starting to look like and I kind of like it so I will continue. No thanks to her...

As a woman who went natural recently, I was hoping that Tyra would have more representations of women with various "TYPES" of hair and by that I don't mean this bogus "good vs. bad" hair thing....but more like TYPE 4a, TYPE 2 hair analysis....so many woman, especially "sistas" don't even know in regards to the strand what the type their hair is....there is a big difference.... No instead, Tyra had crazy mothers with their own agendas on the show...like the stupid lady with the braids who wanted to have a mixed baby because she was teased as a child.....someone should've thrown her a jar of self-esteem because that was low.... Or the mother who "permed" her daughter's hair eventhough the daughter said that she didn't like it and cried....and when her sister got up to say it was silly the mother told her very own sister to "mind her business"... OR...what about the white mother who put weave in her daughter's hair to make her look more black and her little girl (8 yrs. old) said that SHE DIDN'T LIKE WEARING WEAVE...... I was like COME ON TYRA...... That show was a white wash.....no pun intended..... Tyra should've hit up those ladies over at the LONG HAIR CARE FORUM to show that BLACK WOMEN (Israelites) have UNIQUE hair especially designed by the creator of the universe and it can grow longer than repunzel but not if we don't know HOW TO TAKE CARE OF IT....and the perms/relaxers ain't cutting it..... so to all the low self esteem women out there who are subjecting their children to their own insecurities, I have this to say...."WILLIE LYNCH".... google him and you'll see why this "generational curse" when it comes to good/bad hair and light/dark skin still persists today..... Ps...if Tyra was so proud of her roots she wouldn't only show her cornrows when doing a show about black women and hair (this is not the first time I noticed that)....she needs to ditch the lacefronts and learn what a bantu knot is too.....our hair is TOO VERSITLE and our people too precious to let this delusion continue any longer..... The tribe of Judah, you need to stand up and read your bibles, your history is right there! Stop being ashamed of who you are and whose you are....you are children of the Most High.....

The show was a hot mess! I clearly don't have a problem with relaxers (lol!) and I do think she should have spent more time educating folks on how to take care of their hair. What does IRL mean?
