(solange twitter page, click to enlarge) So I finally peeped Solanges twitter page. .. and can I just say again, that I heart her. Like really really heart her. I feeeeeeeeel this girl, like she doesn't even know. The reactions of people, the negative energy is just horrible and we must ask ourselves as people of color in America- when will we finally free ourselves from bondage. Now I'm not preaching to say "everyone should wear natural hair, and weave and perm is the enemy" NO that is NOT what I am saying.... but we shouldn't be a slave to our hair and we should learn to love our hair in a way that's most conducive to our pockets and lifestyle. Solange better WERK that cut!

Most importantly these hairstyles push our men (and women) to re-think their "slave-mentality brain-washed" version of what beauty is and it will allow them to really embrace one of God's greatest gifts on earth- black women" I checked around to see what some people had to say, and what a Takiya said from Fact, Fats, and Fries caught my attention: "Yeah she cut off her "hair", I put hair in quotations bc nowadays that's a bit questionable. How long was hair to begin with??? What celebrity have you seen rocking their natural hair???? Even kim kardashian laces that ish up, and she's Armenian!!! That tells you this is is global!!! LOL! I can't count one, can you??? Some peoples claim...
