 I was at work today and a co-worker was complaining about her
hair. She was a white girl with straight hair and was talking about how
much she hates her hair because she has to wash it everyday or it will
get too oily. Then she says to me that she wishes she had my type of
hair so she wouldn't have to wash so often. And that wasn't the first
time I heard a white girl say she wishes she had our type of hair. Well
that got me thinking about when I was little how when I was little I
wanted straight white girl hair. Now that I'm older I realize I'm happy
with my hair even though it can be hard to manage sometimes esp. around
touch-up time. Everything has it's pros and cons just like 4b hair can
hold a style better than 1a and 1a hair can be easier to comb through
at times than 4b. Sorry so long. I just had to share my thoughts.

Was she talking about the texture or about the oiliness or whatever. I think that everyone on has wised at one time or another that they had a diffrent hair type.

She was talking about the texture and how little I had to wash it. I
had in a braidout and I just pinned it up. And she was complaining how
she wishes she could do that.
