Transition.
The filmmaker Zina Saro-Wiwa presents an Op-Doc on black women’s decision to embrace their naturally kinky hair, rather than use chemical straighteners. Read the full article and support Zina’s Op-Doc here.
I thought that this was a great Op-Doc and found myself wishing that it was a little longer. Typically I’ve noticed that people are able to make/keep major life changes when they have a deeply rooted long term goal. For example, many of these women are transitioning due to health related concerns. I’m happy to see that more women are being more pro-active and are learning about the ingredients that are in today’s beauty/hair products.
At the end of the day, be healthy and true to you however that may manifest itself.
