Whoa. It’s so soft…

hello!! It is I, Jordz! here with a thought/topic/etc.

One evening during the spring semester, I went to this program and my friend was with me. She perms her hair, it’s fairly long and cute. Love it on her. For some reason something happened (this was early april Details are few & forgotten) and she touched my hair. It was out in a fro. She exclaimed, “OMG It’s so soft!!” then she felt it again.. homie was truly shocked. And I don’t know why now today I’m thinking about this, but it seems like the perception of natural hair is just NOT changing at all. Why wouldn’t hair be soft? I’m a little confused by this. Do people still have that notation that it’s coarse and you’ll injury your hand if you touch it? Times have changed and hair was never like that anyways. Yes hair is soft. Yes. NATURAL hair is soft. Is this so hard to fathom?
