And its care culture, from how to treat and style those kinky-curly-weaving textures, has always been very important.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">African hair has always been a part of black people\u2019s identity. It could be used to recognize the age, birthplace, clan membership, social, economic, marital status and occupation of the person and obviously considered a sign of beauty and pride. A quick Google search shows the different hairstyles of African populations and how haircare has always been fundamental, not only concerning the pattern but even the maintaining of the hair (moisturizing, protective styles, oil application, etc), for women and men.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The question remains, how could something so culturally and socially important, established in the roots of a population, be taken apart for so long? Why did we stop applying chemical relaxers to our hair only a few years ago? In short, what happened?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104728 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1.jpg\" alt=\"Jeune femme noire se cachant le visage avec son chandail jaune\" width=\"770\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1-200x134.jpg 200w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Sans-titre-3-770x514-1.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We have to consider two main facts that occured to African people in history. First, the shaving of slaves\u2019 hair in America: one of the most dehumanizing things done to Africans so nobody could\u00a0identify the origin of the person and even if slaves were allowed to grow their hair, it had to be covered by a scarf. Second, the colonization of African countries that introduced a new prototype of hair considered till now, for many, a sign of beauty and prosperity. And this last thing is what my generation of African-Europeans and I have experienced when we talk about hair care during our childhood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But why do we change the pattern of our natural hair? For the same reason a black person continues to bleach their body and why a white person stays under the sun until they\u2019re burnt: we always want to resemble something or somebody totally different from us. And this is what happened in Africa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When English, French and Portuguese colonialists arrived, the African population discovered something different from what they used to see every day: light and pale skins, straight, blonde, red and light brown hair. And because the western world has been associated with prosperity, to be like the colonizers was considered a sign of beauty.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I believe that when we started to emigrate and live in those same western countries, seeing their beauty model every day and everywhere, convinced us more we have to follow this beauty prototype and try to be more like them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But things have changed and are still changing. I believe that we have finally discovered and understand the potential and the beauty of our hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104730 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1.jpg\" alt=\"Jeune femme noire assise sur un divan\" width=\"770\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1-200x134.jpg 200w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sayaspora.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Canva-Woman-In-Black-Clothing-770x514-1.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/>Back in the days, it was difficult and rare to see African and black people with their own natural hair in popular culture &#8211; tv, movies, or magazines. Now with series like &#8220;Black-ish&#8221;, &#8220;Grown-ish&#8221; and &#8220;Insecure&#8221;, we have explosions of different hairstyles done with our hair, from braids to cornrows. Many musicians (Solange and Beyonc\u00e8 Knowles, Alicia Keys, etc), actresses (Lupita Nyong\u2019o) and models (Imani Hammam, Herieth Paul) show more and more their natural textures, making natural hair finally accepted in all types of environments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We are even facing the phenomenon of \u201cculture appropriation\u201d from many celebrities (the Kardashians to state an obvious example), making African hairstyles just to create a trend, forgetting and not mentioning at all what there is behind such type of hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Though there is appreciation, at the same time there is a lack of respect for afrocentric hair. That is why there is a need for us to embrace the topic, talk, and share more knowledge of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Thus, the importance of tools, materials and networks of people online talking about African hair is fundamental; alongside events and panels that gather natural hair experts around the world talking the same language.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When I started my natural hair journey, I watched a lot of videos and tutorials on what I was about to face. Every video started with something that one might think to be obvious, but instead is very important to understand: we have to LOVE our hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Until we, African women, love ourselves, our body, our skin, our kinky hair we won\u2019t be able to let other people understand and appreciate our hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now we have the right models, the right tools, the right spirit: my African sisters, let the hair revolution begin!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104729
