Beyonce, known for her cutting edge style and incredible
vocals, has been in the news for more than just her singing. Recently, slide
remarks have been made concerning how Blue Ivy, her adorable daughter, has a
striking resemblance to her father Jay Z, and even worse remarks concerning her
hair.
Bossip posted a slew of remarks that show such distaste for the child’s
natural hair. Are these remarks suggestion that we don’t like natural hair?
Many of the pictures depict the child wearing her naturally textured TWA, as
well as recent pictures with her hair in wild twist. Many of the styles are reminiscent
of some of the styles I see so many naturals wearing in my network. So what is
the issue? If she had silky curly hair or straight hair would this be less of a
problem, or is this an issue of wanting to see the child made up in stylish
clothes and hair like her mother. I can
remember my mom always in disagreement with a parent that was dressed to
impress and the child was dirty and mangled. Many of the remarks have asked Beyonce to comb
the child’s hair, or have asked,” why won’t do something to the child’s hair”.
What are your thoughts are we really ready to see all woman wearing their natural
hair in 4a, b and c, textures or are we still caught up in Hollywood’s
standards?
I think she I beautiful, people should focus on themselves and less on this defenceless baby. Shame on you
ReplyDeleteI think its ok and she is just a child that could be tender headed and its a hassle to comb her head like me when I was her age, But my mama didn't play that wild child look when I was that age either, but I just think she just need some moisturizer and she be alright but over ALL WHO CARESSSSSSS!!!!!

ReplyDeletePeople just need to leave this baby alone, as long as she's happy and healthy, let her enjoy her wild hair and be a kid. and with kids that age, after you fight with them to do their hair, they pull out any accessories that was placed in their hair anyway; so let the baby be.
ReplyDeleteI hate when people critcize babies hair.. It isn't until you become a mother till you know exactly what it takes and how it could be difficult to do a babies hair.... you could have a nice looking fro but they fall asleep and they sleep on their backs in the carseat they are messing up their hair from it being pressed on the seats... people really need to give her a break... i have a 19month old daughter and im ok with her rocking a fro..babies hair tends to be shorter on the sides and back because of it rubbing against sheets so it can be hard to do styles and you don't want to continue doing braids because it could actually be harming the hair... blue looks ok she's just a baby and doesn't have hair down her back or an extremely large fro.. give her some time
ReplyDeleteThis is all self-hate. You won't hear any criticism of Kanye's baby and all the half white lil babies because that is the hair that is acceptable and envied in our community. We pretend that we have self-esteem and love all things natural but we show that we do not. Blue Ivy is a beautiful African-American baby. She is cute as she can be. And guess what? Her grandmother was a hair stylist and her parents are millionaires. If they wanted her hair "straight" then it would be. You should be happy that they are conscious enough to leave her hair in it's natural gorgeous state.
