0 I've Needed A Natural Hair Break

I'm sure some of you may have noticed the lack of blog posts lately. I would like to say I was super busy and really had no time to write posts (which wouldn't be a whole entire lie, I have been busy) but, I'm going to be honest with you all; I needed a break from natural hair.


My hair is still natural, don't worry. 


Over the past few months, natural hair has really become "mainstream" and the media outlets are catching on to this new "phenomenon" (as they call it) and "others" are cashing in. There is even going to be a show on MTV about it called: True Life: I Did The Big Chop. Yes, it's true. I wonder where this "movement" is headed... I wonder how much money "others" are going to make off of our hair now? Will any of it come back to us? Probably not. Nothing new, eh? 


Sigh.


I'm not upset that natural hair is getting attention. It's just that it's getting the wrong attention. Sadly, people see natural hair as big business and are cashing in. They themselves may not have natural hair but, if they have the cash and PR they can bring in natural hair bloggers, campaigns and even TV stations. 


The natural hair community just isn't the same anymore. Vloggers (YouTubers) are making videos for companies and no longer educating or sharing personal experiences. Bloggers are acting like celebrities and attending all kinds of  hair company parties and mixers. No shade to those trying to hustle, I won't knock it. I just won't support it. I've started unsubscribing to channels and stopped reading certain blogs. I don't want to be marketed to by some big name company. I want to learn about natural hair. 

Where are all the genuine, "I want to help educate you about hair" people at? Where did they go? Will they return? 

Well nevertheless, here are some YouTubers who have maintained their integrity and still promote education and are very personable.
