Warning, controversial content ahead. *Don't crucify me*
Hi Doves!
How are we today? I was doing my regular blog browsing when I came accross a post which caught my attention. The author lives in the US and went to home to Nigeria and Ghana for a visit. She is also a natural hair blogger. When she got to Nigeria and Ghana she was faced with the usual "perm your hair" "how do you make your hair curl like that" "your hair is unmanageable cause it is natural" comments, and of course the rough-handed hair stylists. Now this is a throw back post from last year.The blogger stopped blogging for a while and got back to it in March or May this year.
She noted that in Nigeria she was faced with more resistance to her hair, as compared to Ghana where people were more receptive and open to it. To round off her post, she stated that overall though, the perceptions of Africans towards natural hair is improving and is not all bad.
Now to the crux of this post. A commenter stated that the reason why she met more resistance in Nigeria was that Africans hate African Americans and so they were negative towards her. She also added that there are more African Americans in Ghana, where the commenter lives therefore there was less resistance to the blogger's hair there as opposed to in Nigeria.
