Y'all fucked up.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
File this under -- this is how you fuck up a natural hair brand in 5, 4, 3 ....<br />
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Promise you: Shea Moisture just won't ever fucking learn. It's a shame too, considering their audience -- Black women with natural hair --- told them this shit would happen. And not one lie was told.</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
The infamous video about 'Hair Hate' is now pulled featuring Caucasian and other multi-cultural hair models and not one Black women with natural hair -- you know the folks they built their brand on. <br />
<br />
And here we have Becky complaining about how she "hates her hair." Shea Moisture just Pepsi'd all our black asses.</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
<br /></div>
But since they won't listen, I'll tell them: Y'all fucked up. White folks got hair products. Plenty of 'em. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
They don't need no dayum more. I dare you to stroll up in any hair aisle in any store and you'll see rows and rows of hair care products dedicated to blonde, brunette and black Caucasian hair. <br />
<br />
Black women, though, whom Shea Moisture's brand was built on, out there in these natural hair streets snapping up ever curl custard, pudding and lotion that y'all can make and known to man, even if it's more than a Fillet Mignon per pound. <br />
<br />
Dayum. Is Shea Moisture's white gaze so strong that they just don't see this shit? Are they blinded by Becky with the good hair? They must be. I mean. How could they not know this shit? Black women feel some kind of way about our products, and I don't blame us one bit.<br />
<br />
<strong>What and the fuckshit is this?</strong> <br />
<br />
For years, we had to deal with bullshit hair products or no hair products at all. When we did find hair care products, they were often made by majority companies (African Braid products are, in fact, not made by Black hair care companies). </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We've seen natural hair care products disappear in the last 40 years, as brands like Johnson Hair Care Products and others sold out to majority companies.<br />
<br />
So imagine our cult-like devotion and all the fan girling that happened when we started seeing natural hair lining the shelves, or rather, online at first, about 15 years ago. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I remember when you had to get all of your hair products for natural hair online. Way back in 2010, there was only one store that you could get Miss Jessie's from. I placed my order for Kinky Kurly online in 2008. <br />
<br />
Now, all the natural hair care products you want are in Target, CVS and Rite Aid. I can go pick up Miss Jessie's and a Merona dress in Target. And that's how it should be. But these brands ain't loyal. Black women will cut you over our hair products. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We have a fierce, fierce devotion, and many natural hair brands we loved started out of their kitchens (Hello, Carol's Daughter). <br />
<br />
<strong>I can't anymore</strong><br />
<br />
They made products for our hair. We loved it. We bought it. A brand was made. End of story. </div>
<div>
<br />
But someway, somewhere, these brands started thinking that they needed Biff and Buffy's money, to come up. And soon our faces started disappearing from ads in favor of more 'multi-cultural' or racially ambiguous models. Gone were the melanin-rich models with kinky hair who first helped sell their products to us.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now, we all say that hair is hair -- and it is, and is not. I can't use what Becky uses, and Becky can't use what Tameka uses. We cannot even share the same comb!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But we're talking about Black natural hair, which when we first started going natural rn masse, had like ZERO hair products. Most hair products catered to relaxed Black hair. <br />
<br />
Becky 'nem don't want Shea Moisture's asses tho. They have enough L'Oreal, Revlon and Tresemme to fill grocery carts and aisles and aisles.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Black women on the other hand tho? We got the end cap. We're fine to build up a brand, but not good enough to see it through. We are the world's mule, even hair care companies.<br />
<br />
Sigh. We've been here before. And it's a tired and old trope that we're used to, and we've seen it before with Carol's Daughter. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That brand was coveted by naturals, then sold out to Wall Street investors, naturals swore their formula changed, and then next thing you know they had 'multi-cultural hair' representation in their ads and their celeb spokeswoman Solange said she was not down with their bullshit and bounced.<br />
<br />
<strong>They needed receipts</strong> <br />
<br />
Carol's Daughter almost collapsed, but was sold to L'Oreal. Now Shea Moisture wants to go the same route.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's already faced charges that it's no longer Black-owned (sold some interest to Bain Capital in 2015), changed it's products, and faced criticism when it began pushing the brand for a more multi-cultural audience. Now this. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I wish these natural hair brands like Shea Moisture would get it all the way together. Honor your customer base. I hope it was worth it, because wypipo don't want their asses. I love their black soap and it's the one product I consistently buy from them. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Shea Moisture has apologized, but the damage is done. They are getting dragged, and Black Twitter is showing no mercy. I'm sure they probably paid an ad agency good money for this shit. Too bad it's gonna cost them their brand.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9FKKlD0wND5VpDT0PyZaroYXPc0ZJ710QtvKjTRjkj6nE5ExXGQuXrcsHdsOim9m383_Qkd8opsHD2R0mWx_NQGeBxxPOFDLz7vhuhCTaNC4zXw6xcGpb2wrH_YZjUSKWcPgON-lLVDw/s1600/SM+apology.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9FKKlD0wND5VpDT0PyZaroYXPc0ZJ710QtvKjTRjkj6nE5ExXGQuXrcsHdsOim9m383_Qkd8opsHD2R0mWx_NQGeBxxPOFDLz7vhuhCTaNC4zXw6xcGpb2wrH_YZjUSKWcPgON-lLVDw/s320/SM+apology.jpg" width="315" /></a></div>
<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
You'll never see L'Oreal and Revlon 'nem abandoning Becky for Bonquisha. They simply create different products for varying markets while still focusing on their target market. Shea Moisture needs to do the damn same. <br /><br />
<br />
Cause they just shitted and stepped in it to the very people that built their brand. Shea Moisture's product packaging says it was created in 1912. Too bad this campaign, and others, may cost it the entire brand. <br /><br /><br />
<br /></div>

You know if you did not spend 8 hours in a salon yesterday getting your kids together, this was you last night. Now your house smells like burnt hair and hair grease.<br />
<br />
Remember how we got our hair pressed like twice a year - school picture day and Easter? Ba-bay!<br />

No sooner than Drizzy and Jenny from the block announced their 'situationship' -- I mean, what else do you call it?-- on Instagram, the tea began spilling on social media. And chile, the good, strong Earl Grey tea, too. </div>
<div dir="ltr">
<div class="separator" style="border-image: none; clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="border-image: none;">
Now, I am not the biggest J. Lo fan (chile, my memory is long and I remember Puffy and the N-word in the early 2000s, mami, nevermind the only difference between her and me is where the slave ship dropped our people off, but I digress).<br /></div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<div style="border-image: none;">
But I'll be dayum if y'all sit back and try to drag Jennifer and the thot of hop hop -- who has by media accounts and his own sexual braggadocio, ran all up and thru more women than I can count -- gets a free pass while he's outchere damn near needing a penicillin drip. <br />
<br /><br />
<br />
This negro has never met a cooch he did not like or rap about. <br />
<br />
<strong><br />The Ho code</strong><br />
<br />
Y'all smoking meth, crack and heroin if you think any of this mess is gonna be OK. <br /><br />
<br />
<br />
Now, I may have my doubts about the authenticiy of this relationship. You do know both of these people are flaky as the avalanche of snow that's probably falling in Buffalo, NY and Chicago right now. And be honest: We all know Drake is dusty and thirsty as hell and comes across as a 13-year-old fan girl most days. <br /><br />
<br />
<br />
And well, Jennifer ... chile, we remember that green belly button cleavage dress and how she long she rode that horse when she was with Puffy. We see you, Jenn. Let's just say Ms. J-Lo has never meet media coverage she did not like.<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
But don't even fix your lips to say anything about Jennifer's sex life, when half of y'all ain't said shit about shit about Drake's hoeish ways. This ain't something you can speculate about, this is what you know: Hell, the man put out a so-called 'man ho' manifesto just the other week. <br /><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Did y'all take some kind of Ho pledge and I didn't know about it? I side eye ALL f the foolishness. </div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<div style="border-image: none;">
Sirs, your double standards are showing. Drake's thing is about to fall off, and all I hear y'all talking about is J-Lo's pocketbook. I don't care if J Lo is the Elizabeth Taylor of Hollywood with her multiple marriages, you cannot drag her and stay as quiet as a church mouse peeing on cotton when it comes to this Hip Hop thot. <br /><br />
<br />
<strong>The double standards of hip hop</strong> </div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<div style="border-image: none;">
See how that works. Imagine if a woman in hip hop had as many lovers as Drake is rumored to have. Actually, it's no "rumor," since he's pretty open about it. Y'all would drag her by her bundles, edges and mink lashes. And you know this. That's the thing about sexism. <br /></div>
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
Some of y'all so busy calling out a woman's number of lovers like it's a so-called badge of shame, but say nothing about the dude smashing anything that's moving like he just won the "Ho of the Week' award and you have the trophy. <br /></div>
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
I shouldn't be surprised. I mean. It's not brand new, seeing as tho hip hop has always been like this. So I should not be surprised. Guess I expected better. But it is 2016 tho and I thought maybe folks would have gotten a clue by now. I was wrong. <br /><br />
<br />
<br />
I can't with y'all standards on the sliding scale. I'mma sit right here and sip my tea and lemonade tho.</div>

<p dir="ltr">If you've ever thought about it, wondered what our hair feels like or are just hair curious, just don't do it without permission. Don't try to cop a hair feel on the low; it's called CONSENT.</p>
<p dir="ltr">ASK. And don't be in your feelings if you get a 'heeeelllll nawl' as a response. Trust me. This is not a circus or a petting zoo -- and it is HER body.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Hair is sacred -- so much so that many of us were raised to carefully and properly discard shed hair.</p>
<p dir="ltr">So you can only imagine how we are about the hair that grows from our scalp. We are sensitive AF and play no dayum games about it. </p>
<p dir="ltr">If you've even thought about it, please refer to my first sentence. I will not be responsible for the ass whuppins that might happen as a result. Do it and you might draw back a nub so .... </p>

<a href="http://hairnista.blogspot.com/2016/09/rachel-dolezal-out-here-snatching.html" target="_blank">Rachel Dolezal</a> out here snatching ENTIRE hairlines for a living -- kitchens, edges and fo-heads. Because I promise you, I can't spot nah hair. Not nah on her head. WHERE?? Am I lying? Cause I promise you, her hairline STARTS in the middle of her dayum head. Seriously. How does this even happen? <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixy6O5M21xKugu6knZQBvOrtNzLNQoN_KzW99wbQm9l0kQzYZMW0b3jrGMNYFJ8baJoYrzZ0cdHNVNwKj_V3j6ZXisdYD2kUDlVTa-NK8fK-uR-NPZsZjx1J2NBT4fBumkMr08_ErRT-g/s1600/rachelD.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixy6O5M21xKugu6knZQBvOrtNzLNQoN_KzW99wbQm9l0kQzYZMW0b3jrGMNYFJ8baJoYrzZ0cdHNVNwKj_V3j6ZXisdYD2kUDlVTa-NK8fK-uR-NPZsZjx1J2NBT4fBumkMr08_ErRT-g/s400/rachelD.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
With no dayum edges, Dolezal headlined the NaturallyIsis Natural Hair Parade & Festival in Texas last week. <br /><br />FOR WHY??? This heffa is bout as Black as a box of Bisquick and apparently, y'all dont want edges, either. Look. I get the publicity, I truly do. <br /><br />But there were no Black braiders with intact edges available that day? Wasn't nobody with an edge in sight? I mean. One look at her edges and this should have been settled. Luh you, but we ain't inviting you, ma'am. Because you have NO EDGES! <br /><br />
There is nothing else to discuss. You get no argument from me. She don't need edge control - because she has NONE! She don't need to lay baby hair down, because she has NONE! <br /><br />Jesus can't bring her edges back. Rach out here chasing edges away like she's Usain Bolt and y'all OK with that? Rachel out here asking Alex where her edges are for $200 -- and we're OK with that? Do we not think edges are important? I am so dayum confused. What and the actual hell is her hair holding onto? Does she have alopecia? What and the fresh hell is going on here? Her and Stevie BOTH need an intervention and a sit down, because I still can't figure out what Rachel or Stevie's joints holding onto their scalp for dear life with. <br />
<div>
<br />
<strong><br />Repaste for Rachel's edges</strong><br />
<br />
I know I am not the only one concerned for Rachel's lack of edges. Kareen Abdul Jamar got more hair than Rachel. Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley's shiny fo-head combined. Even Michelle N'gdocello. At this point, the wake for Rachel's edges is at 2 p.m. this Friday. <br /><br />I'mma throw on my good black suit and heels, I'm bringing tata salad and greens for the family, and Wild Root Oil, <a href="https://www.tenishamercer.myitworks.com/shop/product/322/" target="_blank">Hair, Skin and Nails</a>, Dr. Miracle to try to get those mugs to grow the hell back. Them edges will have their own hearst and funeral program. Fantasia is going to be the soloist.<br /><br />I'mma start a gofund me and maybe we can grow her some edges or at least buy some at the beauty supply sto...But who letting Rachel braid her hair? You're smoking crack and meth if you think she is putting her two hands near my hair to braid it. <br /><br />Chile ... Listen. I told y'all more than a year ago that Rachel would have a hair line, sell some weave, or something. And dammit if I wasn't right - Rachel who really wanna be Rakia and is Blacker than me is schlepping everything from weaves to box braids.And we're lapping it up like it's the cold leftover milk in a bowl of Frosted Flakes and Rachel is Tony the Tiger. <br /><br />I can't. This is some fuckery and y'all know it. If she can't keep the cornsilk together on her head, what does she need to have her hair up in my fro for? But keep on letting Rachel play in y'all heads and giving her props for the appropriation and acting like it's cool tho.</div>

And besides the fact that Orange Glo, ashy ass Donald Trump is still running for the highest office of the land, I don't wanna talk about any of that: What and the actual fuck is up with Omarosa's brows?</p>
<p dir="ltr">I have sooooo many questions. WHO in the name od Sweet Baby Black Jesus with the mink lashes did this? </p>
<p dir="ltr">And why the hell does it look like her brows are running from each other? Like one of them mugs is a cheesing Usain Bolt going for the gold in Rio and the other is that other struggle dude running next to no him that no remembers?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Do her brows not like each other? Are they beefing? Is one of them a Trump supporter and the other an HRC supporter and they're fighting on her face? These are things I need to know.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Now, I noticed her brows in an article on mediatite.com in which she says every Trump critic "will have to bow down." </p>
<p dir="ltr">Uhhh... ma'am. The only thing that needs to bow down is your brows. See. This is what happens when you publicly endorse and stump for your former boss on "The Apprentice" and you are appointed his Black ass representative and are paid a by the negro fee for every Black person who votes for Trump.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I promise you, I can't. I mean. Me? I need to fill some brows at this very moment. Like right now. Because hypothyroidism is a a beast on my brows. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Omarosa needs to fire her brow lady tho. They did her DIRTY. She don't like you. She's a Hillary supporter. </p><p dir="ltr">
She ain't your friend. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Now, 'Ro Ro you know there are too many brow options in 2016 to go outchere looking like this. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Chics got whole apostrophes painted on their eye regions.And Ro Ro out here with brows looking like whut? </p>
<p dir="ltr">This is why I don't trust you, Omarosa: Those brows. <br>

Not this shit - again. His name is Alton Sterling. <br />
<br />
There is power in calling things as they are. And all I see is a man who will not get to see his kids grow up. Who was removed by force from his family. A 15-year-old who needs his father more than ever. But the state of Louisiana handled that situation for him.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I'm tired of the platitudes. The memes. The tragedy spreading like wildfire across my social media newsfeeds. We post. We march. We pray. And this shit happens all over again. Wash, rinse and repeat. I mean. <br />
<br />
What is the plan, y'all? And why do we even have to keep asking this question? Why do we have to keep asking police not to kill us with no retribution, no punishment, just a slap on the wrist. Black <br />
people in this country are killed for sport -- and we stay losing. <br />
<br />
Our souls are being hunted. And we cannot even rest from the grave. Inextricably, we will see images of Alton's murder splashed across social media and newscasts. I am not ready. I can't. Not yet. Mentally, I am not ready to go there. I can't watch. Do the details even matter though? <br />
<br />
I'm not going to bother to repeat them here; look them up. All you need to know is that another Black man is dead. And I am ready to scream, cry and hug my children even tighter. <br />
<br />

<span data-offset-key="e302o-0-0"><span data-text="true">Been in a funk ALL damn day. No funny videos, memes or nothing else. I vacillate between wanting to scream, cry and punch someone in the face. It's rare that I go a day without laughing. But this right here?? <br /><br />This made my little Black heart smile. Ciara is a beautiful bride. Congrats to the happy couple. I hope they have a lot of babies. Black love.

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday. And I know my Lord did not die on the cross for this foolishness right here and y'alls fashion shenanigans.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
He did not spend 3 days hanging on that old rugged cross for you to commit the sin of wearing a Skittle-colored suit. <br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
He did not wear a crown of thorns for this act of fashion desecration. He did not rise from the grave after 3 days for these fashion sins to just all of a sudden happen.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
He paid it ALL on that cross. But salvation did not mean buying homey the Clown suits and thinking my Lord would be perfectly OK with these shenanigans.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
For why? The God that sits high and looks down low is looking at these fools. And he is shaking his head, rethinking the whole free will thing. </div>
<div dir="ltr">
My Lord.<br />
<br />
Because this is certainly not what he meant. This is what he gave his earthly son up for? He knows that even his son, Jesus, the prince of peace, cannot intercede.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
With these getups, I am not even sure if Peter will let them get into the pearly gates. Back to you, tho.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
You went past all those Black and Blue suits and this is what YOU chose - being of sound mind and body and all. You decided to look like a Paas Easter egg on purpose?<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
Jesus be a fashion fence, because I cannot. </div>
<div dir="ltr">
You are in HIS house after all. And I just do not see how you are OK with disgracing it. He is the alpha and Omega. But not even he can fix this.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
Who told you to wear a Barbie pink suit? </div>
<div dir="ltr">
And who told you, you were Steve Harvey??</div>
<div dir="ltr">
And why is dude pointing at a rainbow bright suit dude like, really? </div>
<div dir="ltr">
And that you needed to wear a suitcoat down to your shins?<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
Lawd. Is that Jaheim in that cross between cobalt blue and Barney purple suit? I cannot even.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
I just need you to keep singing, boo. And not look to the hills from whence cometh all of your help wearing a fashion sin before God. <br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
I am not even sure what this last dude is doing. Meggings do not make a suit, sir. And neither do electric blue kicks. How you doin'? </div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
Don't even play. You I KNOW you saw this fashion mess today. You should have asked for prayers of forgiveness .Because there are some things even Jesus cannot fix. </div>
<div dir="ltr">

Go to school with Black women. Love Black women. Work with Black women. <br />
<br />
But some of y'all did not get the Black Woman Sign Language memo... Ummm... yes, there is such a thing. What? You didn't know? Anybody who has lived, loved or been around Black women should know this.<br />
<br />
But ... clearly, some of y'all didn't or don't know. But you gone learn today. So don't ever say I have never told you anything.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/34PjKtcVhVE/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/34PjKtcVhVE?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div>
<br />
Because I just might have saved you an ass whooping. Because, really. It's ALL about the nuances. And there are subtle differences that, if you don't know Black women or are not around us a lot, you might miss some of these cues. <br />
<br />
But for the uninitiated or unaware, here's a quick and dirty:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li> If it involves hand clapping at every syllable as a form of enunciation, some shit is about to go down and somebody is about to get their ass whupped. Example" I *clap* told *clap* you *clap* to *clap* get *clap* back *clap.<br /></li>
<li> If it involves hands on the hips, cocking that head back to the side, Black girl side eye or finger pointing or waving hands in the air ... chile ... you need to duck. Because this is a clear sign that it's beyond the point of no return. And hands are about to be thrown and you might just be about to catch one. </li>
<li>If it involves elevated voices. We are only going to argue for so long. If you hear non-work voices and tones, watch out. The moment you hear, 'Bih, whet?' It's going down. Get ready. We are not gonna risk our 9-5 and our checks. But asses will be beat come 5 p.m. off work property, believe that.</li>
</ol>

I am asking for favor from Sweet Baby Black Jesus, the Gods of Holy Melanin and the angels of Black don't crack. Touch and agree, folks. Touch and agree.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
I am putting prayer requests in Dalai Lama, Buddha and the Hari Krishnas just to make sure I have ALL my bases covered. <br />
<br />
Read and weep: Actress Elise Neal is 50. Let that sink in. Repeat. Elise Neal is 50. <br />
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
And considering that in 9 years, 8 months and 8 days I, too, will be 50, I am calling all my prayer warriors. Listen. I ain't even mad at Elise. She looks great. And that ABSOLUTELY should be celebrated, yes, ma'am. <br />
But ummm ... I gots some work to do. How can I be down? Listen ... I don't need to be Elise. But close as possible would not hurt, just saying. LOL. I don't care if I have to Zumba, sell these <a href="http://tenishamercer.myitworks.com/" target="_blank">skinny wraps</a> or whatever, I need to look good at 50. <br />
<br />
I mean. We usually geek out over Angela Bassett, who looks great. But Elise is sneaky and done change the entire game. Now I know some of y'all might be thinking Elise who? She was the co-star on the D.L. Hughley show which ran back in the early 2000s. And she had was on R&B Divas Hollywood in recent years and did a few parts in B movies over the years.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br />But I betchu you know who she is now. This is what 50 looks like folks. That melanin tho! </div>
