Not too much this week; my youngest got herself a job at the same place that I was picking up one of their friends; she's gotten all responsible now with her notebook for keeping up with her obligations. I also got to see in it's entirety, "Good Hair" the documentary on black women's hair that Chris Rock narrated and produced. Although lauded by some, there was those who didn't care for it. I felt it was a good show no matter what. Black women have been having a love hate relationship with their hair from day one just about; reinforced with self image and esteem, as well as what society deems us to be and we're a hot mess. Yet I feel that if we insist on weaves, and those things that make us look good, then by all means, get in where you fit in in the beauty business just like Chris did, by going places and meeting people involved in the game. It confirmed what I suspected: the beauty game is constant, growing and even though the Koreans have a corner on the market, we can get in too. well, I am shutting down; work day tommorrow. Peace.
