In reply to the discussion: ****AA Group**** Natural Kinky Curly Wavy Hair. [View all]cyberpunk
(78 posts)42. So how does one chase up what kind of texture their hair is?
I'm a biracial college kid who can barely locate the conditioner his mom used to stick in his hair when he was four(lovely stuff really, think it was called B&B or something-- always in this pink and white bottle, had aloe and castor oil in it). I want to be able to grow my hair out and do stuff to it, dyes, straightening, et cetera et cetera-- the only thing is, the only thing that happens when I grow my hair out is it becomes an afro-- now how's that gonna look, being two shades from white with an afro to rival Hendrix? Shit ain't happenin', man.

It's coupled between that, and it's just something I used to do before enlisting.
