Beauty brand Carol’s Daughter has released a brief video of the three recent new faces of their brand, singer/model Cassie, singer/DJ Solange and supermodel Selita Ebanks. All three women and their visibly varying hair textures represent the diversity inherent to Black hair.

While hair maintenance is important to all women regardless of race, for many black women, our hair is one of the main identifiers of who we are. Our hair is also our ultimate expressions of self.

Many of us will spend thousands of dollars yearly to ensure that our hair looks good and often get caught up in the notion of what constitutes as ‘good hair.’ While there seems to be a paradigm shift in what we consider to be ‘good hair’, some still hold strong to the ideology that ‘good hair’ is straight or ‘soft’ with loser curls, while ‘bad hair’ is coarse with tighter curls.

As expressed by the beautiful women in this video, ‘good hair’ is the hair in which you feel most comfortable. Whether you feel like rocking a funky fro, being ‘straight’ to the point or having fun with some sexy curls, do whatever makes you feel sexy, comfortable and happy!
