Not truly black-having long hair

Recently I come across the forum where someone posted that because she has long hair as a black person people were always pulling her hair which annoys the hell out of here and she wants to know why people do that.
There are a number and one reason. As a child I was fascinated with a black person having long hair. In every one hundred girls you are likely to find one or two with genuine long hair. I always wanted to have long hair to the point that when we slaughter a cow I would take the hair from the tail and try plaiting it into my. The other reason I was told that my mother’s hair went down below her waist and so I wanted long hair with a passion.

At that age I did not know my mother and wanted so much for people to say I looked like her .In those times wigs were a novelty and were only worn by big ladies. If I came across a dark girl with long hair, I would look hard at her and wished that I had that too.

Short hair says how much Negro blood was in you and in those times blacks were never told they were beautiful. So if you had long hair it means you had Indian blood or white blood and that made you less a Negro. This still goes on psychologically even today. If your hair is long then you are not a true Negro and unconsciously individuals put out the hands to test if it is real or not.

As I said previously I always wanted long hair and became quite intrigue with the repulsive Rasta dread locks when I  later found out  that it could be trained to look beautiful which has now my standard hair style . COME TO THINK OF IT I have finally gotten my long hair wish.

The interesting thing is that now people want to touch it, educated and uneducated, men, women boys, girls. Some just go ahead and touch it; some ask permission to touch it. I always say yes. Hair is just a fascinating thing and some individuals are very tactile.

Black women and their hair is always a touchy subject, we want to have long hair and like to pretend that the wig or extensions we wear are ours so we hate people finding out it is not real. I am almost certain that the black woman who has real genuine long unprocessed natural hair is rarely touched.

It is when the hair is processed that one becomes curious and wants to know if it is real. If it’s real then the unspoken derived statement is. “She is not really one of us, she is not black. Many girls feel good when people say “she is not really black and feel superior to women with naturally short hair denying their black identyeven in  todays day and age.

 .If the hair is locked and beautiful, and is touched ,that person may be is making a mental commitment which is “as soon as I get the chance I am going to lock my hair.”
